So when I first heard that they were going to make Berserk into a movie, I got really excited, as I thought that I’d finally get to see what happens next. As I said, it just ends as the story kicks into gear the whole 25 episode arc is really just a prelude to the main story, a prologue that sets up the supernatural tale. Every time that I come to re-watch it, I’m reticent in placing a disc into the player because of its lack of visual finesse, but once I start watching it, I can’t stop until the final disc, so brilliant is its storytelling and its characterisation. The second thing is that even for a 1997 TV anime series, it’s woefully low budget, with limited animation and low production values. That oxymoron status comes from two things, one is that it’s unfinished, and it stops in the most inconvenient, annoying cliff-hanger possible, mostly because the mangaka, Kentaro Miura is notoriously reticent in continuing the story.
