And very talented too (she's the one making the masks on the making offs, right?). Though she doesn't look like Casca :)

I really liked the costume, and sword. Wish I had myself a sword like that, although I definitely couldn't pull off the Guts look anyway. The one thing I will mention is when he started saying "This is the destined path of a branded warrior" or something, with those wheel-zombies things in front of him (i forget if they have an actual name). Guts probably would've said something along the lines of "Come and get it" with an evil grin, letting his fighting instincts/anger take over, rather than looking depressed and tired of fighting demons.

Other than that I liked it.

Well there was a time in the manga where Guts really struggled with fighting demons every night. When he realized that fighting to protect someone who cannot protect herself is much harder than just fighting to survive. So I dont' think the stuff Guts says in this movie is too much OOC.

But on the other hand, Caska doesn't seem to be around during the fight in question. We only see her in what I presume are flashbacks.

I guess I'm the only who didn't recognize it, as i never played that Game.

The whole Music aspect was actually OK. Wasn't really impressed, but it didn't disturb me or anything. Went well with the Video.
So, Hail LedProd !
Gladly Re-watching it again and again.
hmmm...

Yeah, pretty damn awesome, for a 0-budget thing. You guys must have put a hell of a load of sweat into it, and all for pure and simple pleasure.

For this kind of thing (and while it's easy to be critical, and I generally am), my expectations would normally hang far lower, so you managed to totally blow them out of the water. I don't think it's ooc at all. It's merely a side of him he had for a while.

I can tell you this thing will be a great piece to put into your portfolio and use for any jobs you might want to apply for in the field. See, even fanboyism has its uses. Now just gotta find a way to have my Zodd plushie used for my theatre class ... oh yeah, maybe I should post a picture of him ...

bored me to death, but for your budget, the results are impressive.

Nice work.

It's not a shitty tribute to Berserk , more like a true Berserk fan's vision of how it has to be done in a real live action movie.

Kudos for that. :thumb:
