Berserk is my favourite manga of all time, so to see it getting a anime this ugly is just an insult, the author of berserk spent years of blood and sweat to earn his success and producers saw how successful the manga was and decided to make an anime without heart or respect to the manga, by the way I don't hate the anime just because its 3D and i get as to why they use 3D but it looks so terrible its obvious that they didn't try, composition is terrible, sound effects are terrible, they even changed the dialogue so the main character sound edgy and even cut some important scenes, the anime is heartless and none card if the anime was good or not, when the producers read the manga they didn't see the love and care that want to the story and characters and art, they saw how much money they can make from the fans that love the manga.

I was hesitant to watch this because of how bad of a reputation the series has due to the horrible animation. Truthfully it is still worth the watch. The animation has its moments where it shines, but it had tough shoes to fill considering 97' and the manga is highly regarded as the best of the best.

All other aspects of this series is great. They pulled all the right material. Pacing was steady in terms of lore and action. The score was exciting and season 2's opener is a contender to one of my favorite anime openers of all time. Again, the only true flaw is the animation.

My only other recommendation would be to make sure you watch 97' prior to this series.

The long awaited continuation of one of the most acclaimed animes of all time is hard to watch due to atrociously bad CGI/animation, angles, and worse editing. Luckily the story remains somewhat true to the books so it was able to hold my attention but just barely as every time a character opened their mouth you lose focus on the story as immersion is completely broken.

Just how bad is the animation? Well, it reminds me a bit of 15-20 year old kids cartoons. We also had similar quality in cut scenes back in the N64/PS2 days. Now imagine if those cut scenes were the focus of the games and you will have a good idea of what this anime is like. Its almost like sabotage. If younger folks watch this without seeing the originals they will disregard the entire franchise from here on.

Anyway, like stated above, it still follows the books as best it can so by virtue of having a good manga, this one still gets a rating of 7 from me which makes it better than average overall. Thats how good the berserk story line is. In the future, they should definitely wait until they have enough money to get a quality animator.

Anime itself is not the worst it is not great but atleast okay to watch as a sequence. But seriously disappointed with the anime style the 1997 had the best anime style and it's better not to ruin the classics either should have continued as is or shouldn't have touched it.

If we put away that Berserk has a very interesting storyline and a almost perfectly designed universe, this anime is unbearable.

The 1997's animations and drawings are compeletely fine, it even does not seems old even in 2022. But I don't know who had the 3d animations idea, it is just not good. I don't watch much anime, but I don't think it is a good idea to add 3d animations to any of them. This make the show really nearly unbearable for me.

Some spesific music were good, others are not noticeble. That anime is not so bad, but it is much worse from the one from 1997.
