I think my favourite part of Beserk is seeing Guts act like a normal human, or reacting to something in an out of character way.

He's always incredibly serious and on the ball, but when he's not it's quite strange. Like in one part where his leader started to throw buckets of water on him in a playful fashion and Guts responded in a playful way. Oh, and his boss was naked at the time.

Or for example this part. (Nudity Ahead)

Guts and a female solider have just survived a long fall after a battle. Guts was wounded and he took care of his wounds. She was unconscious and has a high fever, it's raining and getting dark. Guts can only do one thing and that's share his body warmth with her to keep her warm.

He removes her clothes, and then notices there is blood on his hand.

Spoiler

It's pretty good, but it went from introducing Guts as we know him today, to going back to when Guts was growing up, and it's JUST been Guts growing up for the past 20 chapters. Nothing against it I guess, but it could've at least started with this instead of giving me....idk frontstory?
