Lol, sorry for the unsolicited infodump! I mean, I could see that you were writing "realistic" in scare-quotes and said it might be "almost" viable, so I didn't really think you believed munitions armor was like tinfoil, I just kind of got carried away in correcting any misconceptions that any third party reading this might have. I swear, I'm such a hopeless windbag that it's harder for me to write 200 words than 10,000. XP

As for my sources, I was an intern in the department of arms and armor at a major museum for two years, and in addition to looking at all the stuff on display I have read some good material in books and online. I also learned a smidgen of armor-making while I was in college.

If you haven't seen it already, a very good introduction to medieval armor in general is Mike Loades' [Weapons that Made Britain] (https://youtu.be/7qHpoeYyfl0) episode on armor. I recommend Tobias Capwell, who's written [Masterpieces of Arms and Armour in the Wallace Collection] (https://www.amazon.com/Masterpieces-European-Armour-Wallace-Collection/dp/0900785861) and [Armour of the English Knight, 1400-1450] (http://www.wallacecollection.org/shop/books/specialist-books/armour-of-the-english-knight-1400-1450-by-tobias-capwell). You can see him in some TV programs such as [Metalworks: The Knight's Tale] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYd9_vUn7-E), and this recording of his lecture "[Building Medieval Plate Armour: An Operator's Guide] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COAIQPsgZWY)".

Getting into the more detailed stuff, Dr. Alan Williams is the leading expert on the metallurgy and hardening of European arms and Armor; he's written some books including [The Knight and the Blast Furnace] (https://www.amazon.com/Knight-Blast-Furnace-History-Metallurgy/dp/9004124985), and he often appears in other stuff such as the TV documentary [Secrets of the Viking Sword] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTlmrAh1oHI). [Knyght Errant] (https://www.youtube.com/user/neosonic66) is the YouTube channel of Ian LaSpina, who does very detail-oriented videos about the construction and ergonomics of late medieval armor. This French video, "[Le combat en armure au XVe siècle] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hlIUrd7d1Q)", is kind of a demo reel of techniques for fighting in armor. More detailed videos about fighting in armor come from "[Pursing the Knightly Arts] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yw7PPvXKlz0)" and Dierk Hagedorn's [Hammaborg class] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S_Q3CGqZmg) on the subject. If you wanna see how reproduction armor is made, check out [Eric Dubé] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Gvuo5Xmcp0) and [Jeffrey Wasson] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgzQiO9liNw) on TouTube. Check out Matt Easton's [Scholagladiatoria] (https://www.youtube.com/user/scholagladiatoria) videos too.

Yes, I am glad that made your day :), here is the amazon link for the novel:

Whole lotta reading recommendations in this thread. May as well throw my two cents in.

The First Law series by Joe Abercrombie. If you're into Guts' introspective-man-of-violence-looking-for-his-place-in-the-world-thing I'd think you find Logen Ninefingers to be an interesting character. If you're into audiobooks then I highly recommend checking out the audiobook versions. The guy reading them is practically a voice-actor.


The original trilogy:

• The Blade Itself.
  
• Before They are Hanged.
  
• The Last Argument of Kings.
  
  The standalone novels (available as a single volume in The Great Leveller):
  
  
• Best Served Cold (my own personal favorite. Imagine the mercenary-army warring states stuff from the Golden Age meets Kill Bill/Lady Snowblood).
  
• The Heroes.
  
• Red Country.
  
  And the most recent Sharp Ends (short story collection).
  
  The Witcher books by Andrezj Sapkowski. Already spawned a popular video game franchise (I've only played the third one and enjoyed it tremendously, but still prefer the books). They're planning to adapt the books into a Netflix series within the next few years.
  
  Short story collections:
  
  
• The Last Wish.
  
• Sword of Destiny.
  
  The novels:
  
  
• The Blood of Elves.
  
• The Time of Contempt.
  
• Baptism of Fire.
  
• The Tower of Swallows.
  
• The Lady of the Lake.

Sorry it took so long to reply. In the Kabbalah the qlippoth are basically the dark side of the tree of life. The sephiroth where evil creatures dwell. In berserk Slan's domain is the Qlippoth.

Here is a better reference book:

http://www.amazon.com/Nightside-Eden-Kenneth-Grant/dp/1871438721

When that part of Berserk was written a person would have to be heavily into the occult to even know the word Qlippoth.

Combined with the fact that the spells in Berserk are actual spells like the LBRP ( I mentioned in another comment)and other references such as the Moon Child ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonchild_(novel) ). It's pretty safe to say that Miura knows about the occult.

It's the hardcover manga box set :)
