Berserk is finally getting a much anticipated anime adaptation of the Black Swordsman Arc. The project makes its debut in July.

The Holy Chain Knights exist merely as a status symbol for the sons of nobles. Ridiculous colors kind of suit them.

Why is Isidro in the trailer? I thought this was going to cover the black swordsman arc and since he doesn't show up till the conviction arc then why is he in this trailer. It looks like he's running in the forest. I hope they are not going to fuck up the flow of events and switch shit up because they think they can do it better. I hate that kind of shit.

They are making 24 episodes. Black Swordsman and Lost Children could easily take 6 episodes each, and Children would get rushed.

My guess is maybe some made up Guts helping some random village for 4 episodes so he becomes notorious and draws the attention on Farnese squad. Then 20 episodes of Conviction and last episode is Griffith resurrection.

Black Swordsman won't take 6 episodes.
It would take 3 or 4 at most.

>>139129006
I don't get you guys. Yes, it's sad that we get a CGI shitfest, but it's watchable at the very least and there are some redeeming qualities to it.

We should be glad we're getting anything at fucking all, considering how little Berserk stuff has been happening lately. Yes, the manga popped up but then it returned to a hiatus in true Miura fashion.
>>
>>139129038
No, if anything this is the worst adaptation so far, it's pretty much taking the bad things from the movies and then putting shit music on top of it.

This.

Yeah, we all want something better. That's a given. And this does mean that the chances of having something really great are being blown here, since they won't do it again... at least not for a long time.

But still, it's what we're getting. It can't be 100% bad, we are still seeing some fantastic arcs finally being animated for the first time. I'm psyched for it regardless of the CG.

No, you have to be jaded to have such high standards for a series that hasn't had any adaptations since 2013, and one that is struggling since its creator doesn't give a fuck anymore.

I'm not defending how bad it looks, I'm just saying to give it a shot. Especially since there were people who enjoyed parts of the movies and since we've only seen two short PVs.
>>
At this point shitty adaptions can't hurt me anymore, but I'm curious how this came into existence.
I mean, who owns the rights to Berserk (Miura? This studio?)?
Somebody approached this studio and decided that it was a good idea to make the series 100% CG. Then somebody else invested into this idea and had it produced.
And nobody interjected "Hey, how about just letting Madhouse do this one?"

I know, I know, Madhouse is not the hero we deserve... Still one can't help but wonder what could have been.

As far as world design goes, it's based on various time periods, cultures, histories, etc. Miura even said this in an interview. But he also pulls a lot from myth and legend, even in his world building, and of course he puts his own spin on many things.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Berserk_chapters

Make it 4 and a half, if you start from 118 and end in 171-176.

Golden age old anime did 80 manga chapters in 24 eps roughly and cut a lot of things. Like the savage monkey bulbasaur plant dick after rescuing Grifith.

New anime is 24 eps, and Conviction is 60 chapters just from Enter The Farnese to Mozguz Defeated.

I think Isidro gets introduced in 146. "Ambition Boy" (野望少年 "Yabō Shōnen"?).

I don't know, my math makes me feel Conviction could fill a good chunk of 15 episodes at least. That leaves too little for both BlackS and Children in the new production.

Berserk fags are annoying as all hell.

You people want literally the manga animated, not even cancerous OPMfags wanted that because everyone knows it's just NOT POSSIBLE. With any manga, you simply can't match the mangaka's art just like that, it would be expensive as fuck and Berserk despite being famous and really good doesn't really shit money out, blame Miura for being a hack.

This here >>139127032 looks beautiful, artstyle is closer to the manga than most adaptations ever get, shading and some effects look great too.
If everything goes right in a couple years you'll get another one looking even better since 3D is improving really fast in Japan nowadays and more techniques are being used for anime

I agree with this anon, anyone who says a bad adaption will ruin the source material comes off as childish and kinda dumb desu senpai.

There's Ray Bradbury quote where's he's says the original books are still there, on the shelf, unchanged. But this is coming from someone who liked the Berserk films and thinks this upcoming version looks decent.

So, theories on what will happen before it ends?

Right now this is what I am thinking... Casca will be restored. She'll have one of her episodes with Guts where she tries to kill him again, but on a much more severe level. Over time on the island, she will come around to him, but they will disagree: Guts will want to stay on the island and Casca will want to go and overthrow Griffith. Casca initiates the attack and leaves the island first (kinda like Casca making the first move on Caesar in Shakespeare's play).

Guts has a bit of an inner journey, and realizes that he needs to get off his ass and finish what he started, finally, when he set off from the Band of the Hawk — which is to become Griffith's equal, stand up for his own "kingdom", his own way, and fulfill their rivalry in a final duel once and for all. Then we'll get to see a badass finale against the Neo Band of the Hawk and Guts's group.

And then... the way it ends... I think Griffith will "give up" his kingdom. The faint beating of his heart after he reappears and sees Guts fighting Zodd is what suggests this to me. Also, the story is heavily based on Nietzsche, who loved the eternal recurrence; I think Griffith will see the value in letting himself fall, because he knows that everything will rise again (also a theme present in the movie Excalibur which Miura obviously loved) and what he really loved in the end was the rising, not the goal itself.
>>
>>139129840
This.
Most of the stuff, especially golden age are based on ~15th century central Europe. Then we have Kushans that are based on Kushans obviously, so we have motifs from India. I even remember there being a statue of Maha Kali.
Then Virtannis seems to be similar to Italy in later periods, I'd guess somewhere around 17th or maybe even 18th century.
Then we have Elfheim with plenty of Celtic motifs.
We also have the ruins of Gaiserc city that are based off Rome.

So there are plenty of many inspirations in Berserk, perhaps I've missed some, these are just off the top of my head.

BS could be done in like 4 episodes. They did the snake baron in 1 in the '97 anime. The count would fit in 3 episodes if they cut one of the fights with that guard leader with counts powers.
Then you have 5 eps for Lost Children. That may be a bit too little. This arc is mostly just the Roshinu fight, but we also need some screen time for backstories of her and Jill, otherwise it's a bit pointless.

I'm checking the manga quickly and I was wrong about Farnese: She appears a few times talking to the villagers of Jill's town.

But, that scene of the Holy knights from the trailer is literally pic related. That's just right after Jill and Guts bid farewell.

I think they are merging BS right into Conviction.

I need some glimpses of Guts fighting demon bee kids or at least female seiyuu for Jill and bug queen confirmed to be at rest.

Etotama worked because it had a style and the animators worked extremely hard to make the characters energetic and emotive even in CG. It'd be much harder to do in a realistic style, let alone grimdark Berserk realistic style. Still, it remains proof that CG can actually work really well, sometimes.
