Its a bit of a confusion situation though.
Berserk Manga has like, quite a few little story bits culminating in the big battle against the count before it goes into an extended flashback sequence (Golden Age, what has been covered by all adaptations so far), and these early bits include Guts meeting puck (shown in PV), and the skeletons in the forest (shown in PV a lot), so we are obviously starting around there.

Right after golden age it jumps straight into Retribution / lost children (which might not get animated), which starts with guts fighting a big monster shown at the ending of the PV in the OP.

So chronologically it is starting roughly after the previous anime, but in terms of manga progression, its probably going to be a bit weird. It looks like it will start with meeting puck / the skeletons in the woods and what not, then skip the entire arc involving the count apostle, and jump straight to the start of retribution.

Of course this is just whats being inferred by what is shown in the PVs, I have no actual clue what their plan is.
>>
how can you be excited for an adaptation that visually shits all over the surreal feeling of the artstyle Miura has jizzed onto paper? it uses CG, which is literally the farthest thing possible in stylizing short of going full live-action, and it sure as hell won't capture the great detail that we all know and love from the manga. The original anime adaptation wasn't perfect, but it was a hell of a lot closer than this shit will ever be. also, gg to all the stuff they're cutting out, I wouldn't dare watch this shit and knowing it's incomplete makes me less likely to consider it even as a drinking challenge.

>Miyuki Sawashiro as Luca

Not what would have been my first pick, but after thinking about it it is actually really fitting.

Voice casting was damn good, honestly it feels like they made so many right decisions in this project only to completely botch it with some bafflingly bad decisions.
>>
>>143487535
The lack of Count in voice cast makes me feel they are skipping his arc (and thus the first part of the series where we actually learn Guts' goal), same way the lack of any of the lost children characters in the voice cast makes me doubt that will be in as well.
>>
Why the FUCK does every adaptation of Berserk end up using disgusting CGI? It looks awful, it's already proven that it leads to a flop multiple times. How the fuck does this keep happening? I honestly think Berserk stands a better chance of getting a good Hollywood adaptation than Anime at this point. Black Swordsman, Golden Age and Lost Children would make for a great live action trilogy.

Are they skipping the Count and Theresia mini arc? I fucking love that one especially the ending. They had the zombie blonde girl attack Guts in the PV, and that took place before the Count/Theresia stuff. Seems like it will have the Pre-Conviction arc stories. It's also important since it introduced the Behelit, the God Hand, and Griffith.

Guts is at his scariest in Lost Children. Earlier chapters had him verbally edgy and Golden Age was something entirely different. Afterwards he mellowed.

Eh, not the op, but I'd say 'excited' is going a bit far. It'll be nice to have an animated version that goes beyond the fucking Golden Age, so there is that. It will also bring Berserk forwards into the public consciousness again, and hopefully inspire the younger readers to get into the manga.

Until the Golden Age trilogy of movies, Berserk was practically dying. Chapters were rare as fuck, and you were lucky to add a volume to your collection every two years. The original anime, which ends where the manga really kicks off, is ancient now and it shows. It was starting to slide into nostalgia for longtime fans like us, and obscurity for the current target audience.

Remember, those of us who got into Berserk early are fucking old for a core audience, especially for animu.

Okay, she's too cute to kill. Besides, Berserk isn't about cute things. Has Miura fucked up? No, he didn't motherfucker. Here's your monster transformation.
>>
>>143490120

Because in some (most?) western countries, that arc is practically something you can be prosecuted for owning. Only that it is still in circulation and actively rated by a legal board keeps it from being worthy of a party van trip. In fact, the same goes for a lot of Berserk. What is legal, let alone acceptable, has really changed in the decades since that arc.

>>143490384
this is still a terrible excuse, seeing as this is one of the oldest and most iconic mangos that's been running this long (despite the constant hiatuses which probably equal 1/2 of this thing's running time), and yet it's getting the most cancerous type of adaptation possible. Look at JoJo, for example -- a veteran of equal prestige, more or less, with a large cultural impact (at least within weebery), and only in recent years did it get an adaptation. AND IT'S A GOOD FUCKING ADAPTATION. It lives up to JoJo, it's like reading the manga in motion with some good stuff added in; the anime carries its weight and promotes itself well to new viewers as well as properly living up to the expectations of old fans.

>>
>>143491130
>God is evil
Where do people get this from? It's outright stated that there may be heaven hidden somwhere at the end of this world. And since evil can be only in the absence of good, it's a given that good/heaven is not of this world, but obscured far beyond astral.
>>
>>143486363
I'm going to watch this, and as long as they don't fuck up the story I'll be fine with it. But having said that, the cg just looks so fucking awful it's hard to look at. cg doesn't even bother me that much in principle, but this just looks particularly bad.
>>
>>143491328
There is no Heaven in Christian sense. There is only the World of Ideas which is an ocean of feelings. All souls ultimately go there.

You shouldn't really think about this in Christian terms. Evil, as it was shown, is the core nature of humanity. It's all in chapter 83.
>>
>>143491451
You misinterpreted what created the Idea of Evil. It's not that Humans are at their core evil, it's the underlying belief in all Humans that there must be a REASON for all the Evil.

The Idea of Evil is basically Angra Mainyu from Fate/Stay Night. It's just an entity that's had all the worlds Evil shoved onto it to justify belief.
>>
>>143491396
>this just looks particularly bad
If you haven't seen Ajin, maybe. I don't plan to watch the second season of that turd, but damn if it didn't raise my tolerance for terrible cg. Compared, what we've seen in trailer for Berserk looks great.

>>143491451
I don't necessarily say Berserk's universe is Christian. Which your post makes harder to do since if evil is at the core of humanity, then humans can't do good or their nature is fallen. Either way, whatever the nature of ocean, there's a higher sphere of good that can touch us.
>>
>>143491512
No. Idea of Evil literally said it's part of every human's soul. Hell is not some place, it exists in every human's consciousness.

>a common consciousness that transcends individuality
>their collective consciousness as a species
>I was born from these swells as the ego of this world
>Violence and loneliness. This place is filled with all kinds of blurred negative feelings. It is truly the will that defines human nature.
>>
>>143491512
It does also say that it's a result of human desire and human collective subconsciousness.

But basically I don't think Miura generally does that great of a job explaining things. He's generally too short and vague even when he's using an entire chapter for expediting lore. Either that or the translations just aren't that great.

Have toy seen the art that Berserk has? It's lots of small, curving lines, which is hard to animate, not to mention animate it and make it look good (Although a solution would be to have them flowing upwards like fire, that'd look good but would be extremely hard)

And that's only the style of the art, when you look at how it's written it's something that looks good written, but when made into animation, doesn't fit all too well,

>AND IT'S A GOOD FUCKING ADAPTATION. It lives up to JoJo, it's like reading the manga in motion with some good stuff added in; the anime carries its weight and promotes itself well to new viewers as well as properly living up to the expectations of old fans.
I disagree. Part 3 and (so far) especially Part 4 has been really lacking in something that I can only really describe as heart.

What I mean by this I'll explain: When Araki was drawing the Part 4 he was clearly riding that wave of elation that comes with finally having a major success with Part 3. It really showed in his work; it's easy to see that despite the pretty horrible things that are depicted in DIU sometimes it's still a very optimistic and cheerful work with loads of energy and a clear love for the world.

I'm not sure if it's just the change of pacing one should expect from going from a fairly snappy, efficiently paced comic to having to fill air and give each action a set amount of time on screen with animated media, but it just ends up feeling so soulless and lame. A lot of the more tactfully handled moments in the manga (like the recent chapters with Oldseph) come off as forced and maudlin in the anime, because it feels the need to linger with sad music playing. It just feels so lame in comparison.

Not that anybody but me cares, anyway.

The problem is that they are missing out the single most defining arc for Guts' rage if we include the movies. The fact we aren't getting Lost Children, even if they didn't show the dead kids and just implied it, is ridiculous because it was the single best arc for showing how fucking hardcore Guts can be to get a job done.

Nothing else we've seen comes close except possibly the Eclipse and him trying to save Caska from being addicted to Griffith dick.

Honestly, if it's 24 episodes long and they're moving through it that fast, I wonder if we actually WILL get to Schierke before it ends.
I could see them reaching the Berserker armor at this rate.

If cutting out Lost Children means we get to reach "You are my sunshine" then I'm cautiously hyped.

Except for the fact that the holy sees scriptures warn against the godhands machinations. It's actually had me thinking. Whoever wrote those scriptures knew of the godhand and felt the need to warn those who read and follow the faith. Could it be that originally holy see actually created a sanctuary against the IoE before it became corrupted and before its followers became dumb enough to follow griffith?

Or was miura not decided on what he wanted at the time?

What if there is 2 "godhands"? 5 angles wrecked gaiserics city and the holy man was probably Void that sacrificed it to become a godhand, so what if he became the first godhand member of the second godhand? And the first godhand still exists but haven't showed up yet

We're only getting to the tower of conviction in 5 eps. The arc itself is pretty long, I don't see anything wrong with the pacing. In fact 24 episodes should be more than enough to cover the whole arc without unnecessarily skipping material.

How? How can they use Nietzsche's quote about monsters, about turning into a monster, when they are going to skip over the black swordsman and lost children arcs, in which that line is the most relevant in the manga?

And why isn't guts injured when the iron chain knights come after him? The only reason guts didn't slaughter them all in the first place was because he was on the brink of death. Am I supposed to believe a bunch of inexperienced, young and undisciplined knights are going to be able to take down a man who goes toe to toe with demons and monsters who was able to cut down 100 men at their age?

Same. I feel like Conviction runs a little too long. It has so much going on, that its hard to stay excited while reading it.
>>
>>143497961
>How can they use Nietzsche's quote about monsters
I'm not 100% on this, but I feel like this series might end up extending past Tower of Conviction and reach the end of the Witch stuff.
It'd be tight, but they seem to have a pretty fast pace for the first 9 titles >>143487884
so i feel like they could possibly just make it.
And if they did, that means we get Berserker Armor, so the quote would be 100% applicable.

>>143497961
>And why isn't guts injured when the iron chain knights come after him?
I'm assuming they're gonna spend the first episode skimming over those past encounters to wear him down.
Honestly, they're good arcs, but they're wholly unimportant plotwise outside of making guts weak at the time and introducing us to Puck.

Ah, you're right, there is 1 important bit from it.
That Guts gets his Behelit from the count.

>>143498186
You can't keep thinking of Berserks arcs as just things to move the plot around. You have to realize how each arc shows Guts character and how it evolves.
Black Swordsman introduced us to what seemed like a cold and ruthless guy who killed monsters, when in reality he was a depressed man who kept going on by trying to block out any emotions, and failing.
Lost Children showed Guts at his lowest, with him realizing it. He lost himself almost constantly in his rage, and it was his big wake-up call to go back to Casca, as well as his demon baby revealing that she's in danger.

Two things. The confirmed episode titles which imply that it will skip over black swordsman and LC arcs. And then there's the scenes shown in the PVs which show guts going up against the iron chain knights uninjured and clean which further implies he doesn't fight rosine, the moth apostle.
