I wouldn't have a problem with CGI if it was high quality stuff like what Square Enix does. But this half 2D half 3D nonsense is just garbage. 90% of the fights were horribly done in the movies and that just killed it for me. I couldn't even take the 3rd movie seriously.

Well, it doesn't look like studio 4c. Unless they got a lot better. I'm thinking worst case will be production I.G. since I think they're partnered with universal or something.

Why is 4c good at drawn animation but the worst in the galaxy at CGI? It's not as if their artistic sense is poor and that's why they didn't notice how bad the movies looked.

Production I.G does pretty good 2D/3D digital compositing, but they're really the only ones and only some of their projects use it frequently.

You can at least tell somewhat of a difference from the movies. The shading is slightly more in depth and Gut's facial structure is different. Even if it is CGI I don't think it will be as bad as it could have been.

What I don't understand is, why is it that it's taken so god damn long for Berserk to get an adaption of any kind that goes beyond the Eclipse?

Also think about it. The thing isn't going to have a budget. The source material is longer then the lord of the fucking rings by now. If they do go with CGI its probably because there just isn't any money to do hand drawn animation for such a project with no end in sight.

You know CG can be just as expensive, right? Besides, if you're worried about the animation for it, hope that some good animators were free during production. You don't magically make a show better with more money.

A budget's a budget, it's based on how much money the loaning company can give out and how much they expect they can receive back.

CG is less expensive, this anon has the right idea. technology's faster and progressively cheaper than having a crap-ton of workers of various skill levels going minimum-wage work in an increasingly niche profession.

Why do you care, why do you still follow Berserk?

There is so much shit wong with everything (the shitty adaptions, the never ending boat ride, the constant off and on status of the manga) I just dont see why you still care?
How hasnt all of this shit just made you give up on it entirely? You're like a battered spouse and I find it hard to sympathize with you when you just keep coming back for more suffering.

If you just stop caring and give up on the series, you will be much happeri. Then one day when some retarded anon says "It's finally over" THEN you start reading and investing in it.

Because Seinen isn't for an audience that tends to watch anime. They tend to prefer manga.
It's mostly kids watching saturday morning cartoons. And that's why that's profitable. Since it's seinen they have to put it in some shitty timeslot.
Remember Death Note? exactly that. It just isn't profitable.

Because it's extremely well done, and anime is created on the cheap. No studio can afford the full body, animated motions the manga has. I don't even believe modern studios would be able to animate a full bodied character properly. Animation costs money you fucker, do you think artists work for free?

Not sure if that's just a low-cost way to make realistic CG effects or an absurd amount of money on something with no creativity whatsoever, but either way it's less visually interesting than your average anime scene.

>What's with the japs obsession of making Berserk CGI?

They missed the boat for a good adaption: the glory days of cel animation, OVAs and films.

Instead of doing a show they could have done some nice hour long OVAs in the 90's starting with Black Swordsman. Shorter, but would have had nice animation.

Now they're using CGI because Nips don't have the budget for nice animation anymore, and use CGI to fill in holes. But they're completely incompetent at it so their 3D/2D anime turns out to be a fucking mess.

What I don't get is

Battle Angel Alita got a shitty OVA but has yet to receive anything else since then.

If they're concerned about profit, just adapt Last Order since it devolves into a fucking tournament for 60% of its run.

Yep, been waiting for that for so long, it'll be nice to finally get an English dub to see how they even pronounce Farnese and Schierke's names, since probably everyone just pronounces them different as it is now.

Can't wait to see Farnese's story animated though, as long as they don't gloss it over, almost teared up seeing her in the manga for the first time in 3 years.

I think the movies were crap for completely different reasons than just it's CGI. They got Guts' character just completely and blaintantly wrong in some scenes. I think it had the worst adaptation of the Casca waterfall love scene and Guts is just considered more of an overall meat head in the movies instead of the bad ass that he is. Motherfucker's supposed to be 20 in Golden Age and he looks atleast 30 in the movies. I dunno. It makes me puke how wrong they got some of the characters in that movie. The entire Eclipse part, I'd say they got down pretty well however.

Shading on people is never good at Nihei's works aside from Biomega i recall.

>>135137627
The movies had to cram the entire golden age arc into 3 movies. In order to do that they had to cut stuff that was non-essential to the plot out to make it all fit. A lot of that non-essential stuff included character development, which basically ruins the whole thing. Without the character development Berserk's story isn't anything really special, that's why the movies just feel so hollow and pointless.
>>
>>135137879
It say Wyald was pretty fucking essential. I'm astounded that they left him out, but overall it makes sense considering that they weren't going to continue past this

You're the retard. Good CG is expensive. Arc System Works invested man-months into each of the Guilty Gear characters. They don't just have to create each model in an initial effort they also have to invest a lot of time into tweaking the animation.

Cheap CG looks like shit and prevents you from doing one-off things (clothing changes, exaggerated reactions, high detail scenes that aren't reused, ...) because they're not cost-efficient.

Sure, you can use CG as a cost-saving measure, but it's not going to look good.

Meh, we know later that Zodd is pretty special, so others can be weaker. Also Guts himself got way better through the years.
It isn't essential, but doesn't change the fact that I'd love to see it animated. It puts the importance of the casuality and Apostoles relations in perspective when Zodd stops Wyald.
>>
>>135138334
Did they not have Guts killing the snake apostle in the beginning of the movies? Don't remember. Besides that wouldn't have really been an issue if you had read the manga and seen the anime first, I hope no one actually was introduced to Berserk through the movies, I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

The movies had nothing of The Black Swordsman Arc. Which I kinda hope the new one starts with that arc and then continues directly into Conviction.

With as many times as they've tried getting a Berserk adaptation going you'd think they'd get it right atleast at SOME point.
I didn't think it could be possible at first fucking up Berserk, but both the original anime and the movies did absolute fuck all for me.

Its biggest issue was its non-existent budget. Acting for both the sub and dub were fine, and the OST is god tier.

It's true, and it's actually kind of strange considering that the people who did the dub didn't seem like they really took it very seriously or cared much about it.

>>
>>135120194
Hopefully not, even if I didn't mind the sometimes badly used CGI, I thought their director/storyboarder didn't structure the plot very well for the movies and made some shit decision regarding what should get some focus and what to omit.
>>
Cell-shading is the real problem and a garbage stylistic. If it was "realistic" CG it would have been better.
>>
>>135137879
I think the worst instance of omitted stuff was the night raid where Guts remained behind to save their asses. It was a turning point in his relationship with the band, where he really became a part of the group. It was important, since it established how his stay with the Hakws changed him and his outlook for the better. He started to feel a bond to them, which is important to stress what he lost during the eclipse.

But hey, gotta focus on that extra long princess fuckscene instead.
>>
>>135142902
>moment of glory: end
Indeed anon, indeed.
>>
>>135143113
The problem is that they tried to stay faithful to the manga instead of reworking the plot, and they did that by just omitting tons of shit to make it fit into a 3 movie time frame.

That just doesn't work because you lose too much of the story in the process. Most movies that are adapted from books don't just take the book and cross out all the stuff that won't fit and then go to production. They actually rework the plot in order to preserve all the necessary elements.

I kind of think it's probably Miura's fault because he didn't want them changing his stuff around and didn't realize how much it would hurt the story to castrate it the way they had to.

Actually, the dub actors seemed to have a level of effort unusual for the time.

Well the chapter numbering is odd. They don't number the first couple of chapters for some odd reason and it can get confusing for some.
Chapter's literally called Nosferatu Zodd however and if it's not chapter 2 on your site then it's definitely chapter 18.

Same shit depending on what site you use. I know Kissmanga drops significantly in quality right around Eclipse which is unforgivable because you need to read those in the best quality imaginable.
