Though this is fan made..

Am I going to see a good Berserk series in my life time????
(yes i watch the OG anime)

 

[SF Kosmo]

Isn't the Berserk 97 Season 2 project ALSO covering the Black Swordsman arc? These projects both look great but they should work together or get out of each other's way.

I was really impressed with the quality of the first episode of that project and I'm happy we're getting something better than the 2016 series, but I do have to say Black Swordsman is by far the worst arc in the series and I appreciate that the previous animes condensed that stuff into a single episode.

Fuck sake man, why'd you do this to me?

EDIT: It doesn't look half bad for a fan made project. Sucks that this is the best we can hope for.

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

Why are all these fan made projects trying to cover the same ground...

Seems like a colossal waste of time and effort.

 

[Robot Carnival]

I remember seeing the teaser a long while ago. so is this finally/actually coming out?

on one hand...

but on the other hand...

 

[FeralEcho]

This looks absolutely incredible.

The music,voices,scenes,it all blends so perfectly.

It shows just how huge the potential of a Berserk adaptation is and how fucking stupid the "real" studios are for not taking it on.

It's up to the fans it seems to show these stupid studios how much Berserk actually means to the world and what a waste it was to leave it for over 20 years to wallow in nothingness.

Good Job studio Eclypse! Bravo!

For a fan made this looks really good

I would say that a lot of the studio probably WANT to faithfully recreate the story but they know they'll be facing lots of issues going from some of the stuff in the story would be really hard to bring into a show that's anything but mature rating. but if they compromise to bring it to a lower age group rating to get more sales, they will definitely face the wrath of all the die hard fans, not to mention Miura's stduio probably won't sign it off if they plan on doing that. at the end of the day, it's all about money still so I don't blame them. and of course, the finished product will ALWAYS get compare against Miura's original artwork, which honestly is a rather impossible standar to meet.

Yeah seeing that trailer gives me hope

The manga is my GOAT of all time

I just wish they would do a Proper Adaptation of the whole manga

It would be glorious to see everything fully animated and uncensored

 

[RedC]

Had low expectations

Came away pleasantly surprised.

 

[Fbh]

Seems cool for a fan made project I guess.

But having just clicked on the video without any context the first thing I thought was
"Why does the animation look like something from Youtube?".

 

[Fart Knight]

Looks alright

 

[FeralEcho]

It's my favourite piece of work in any media.

 

[BadBurger]

This show was honestly crushing to watch. I wish they would just write a happy ending for Guts.

Maybe I'm weird but I want to see it an an HBO drama, like Game of Thrones.

I think its going to be weird to start in the middle of the story.
And if they start in the begining, get enough people watching maybe they get decent funds to do the rest..

 

[Jsisto]

Looks great but I’m not gonna bank on fan projects, so much that could go wrong. At this point I’d be fine if they did a new/improved official anime and just picked up where 2016/17 left off.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Nah they would censor everything or make sure all the female characters especially Casca are Butt Ugly and than show nudity. Or if they have actual attractive females in a supposedly HBO Adaptation, they would cover them up with a Burkha or if there's nudity of said attractive female they would just put a dick on her just to own the Chuds

 

[SirTerry-T]

We need WIT Studio to do Berserk justice, and give us the Conviction arc FFS.

Or let them do all the Story Arcs in a High Budget Production that covers all of the manga. And making it fully uncensored too and doesn't skip anything from the manga

 

[SF Kosmo]

Yeah, just like Game of Thrones, that famously censored show with unattractive women and no nudity -- what the fuck are you talking about?

If anything it would probably be a lot less censored than the anime series, which have all had some pretty heavy censorship and omissions.

What planet do you live on?

 

[K' Dash]

They should just write a blank check to Mappa and let them cook.

why do they always fuck up Berserk?

Mappa is dieing.
