Berserk 2? Doesn't have to be a sequel to the other one (since it left out too many things). An OVA would be good though... but would seem to be really too short considering where the manga is.
Oh, somone also asked about boxset of Berserk. Check out DVD Planet (thats where I got mine) - their US Licensed version was selling for like $65. As for manga - try Buy.com they sell it for around $8 i think. If you guys know of cheaper plz tell me (for the manga and PS2 game that is)!

Hey there,
I want to ask those who read the manga from the beginning
Did the anime released after the manga reached volume 14 I mean after the eclipse
So that the anime doesn't give us any thing new but only voices for the characters
And some other changes in the story line but it wasn't so different from the manga
So if the second series of the anime will be the same like to stop at volume 27 for
Example so I don’t think that I will watch it ….. or you guys got another opinion ?

Hope that helps, if not, start another thread.

I've been teetering back & forth on the brink of this, 'would I want a second season of Berserk', notion, for sometime. IF they made it an OAV series, which would give it the raw, uncut-ness, it deserves as well as ample time in which to develop the story further, perhaps. But ONLY if the original production company, VA's etc, were utilized...Otherwise HELL no.
As for the US release of the DVD set...ugh, learn from my experience...UGH
Since I was lacking in the money department & unable to buy toys & goodies such as the Box of War, my friend bought me the "Complete" collection, which, is as mentioned previously, the "skinny", packaging...or, one case, containing 6 discs.
Now, you can imagine my damn near joygasm for getting it...yes? (of course, I wanted the Box of War, more than anything, because...well, its much nicer, but I wasn't gonna be picky about it! It's BERSERK for fucks sake!! lol). Yeah, well, imagine my utter dismay, when I started watching w/my bf....we were both overly excited & decided to watch the dub...now before you all fly off the handle about the English version, relax, we planned on watching BOTH, just cause we're obsessive like that. English first was a random roll, lol.
Anyway, I've seen the original, English version & this was FAR from it...The VA's remained the same in some cases, but Anime Works got a hold of the series & botched the fuck out of it...I'd guess they rerecorded certain portions. For example, not only was translated content different/cheesier in some cases, which REALLY fuckin irked me...like, Pippin talking...ALOT...far too much, in fact....as well as the dialogue being shittier...but some voices were changed. Like, as far as I can recall, Gaston did NOT have GOKU's fucking voice in the original English go round. AGH...I was so upset...even some of the outtakes were changed.
All in all, I'll still be dropping the money on the Box of War. This one will be purely collector's item, for simply having, both releases...ugh...don't go for the cheaper, single case/slim packaged, Complete Collection. All its good for is a nice, shelf piece or dust collector

Well for the second season (i think this has been mentioned.... but oh well :/ ), it should only be do-able if they re-did it all over instead of continue off of the original because the original left so much out. For example, Puck was left out - I guess they could create a whole new story juz so that Puck still meets up with Guts but then...

They coudl have Guts meat puck precount instead of presnake guy(who I think was the count in the Anime)
But to me one of the key elements missing is SK. He needs to meet Guts before the eclipse for him saving Guts to make sense. But iif you think about it you could just start it precplipse somewhat and jsut kinda excellerate through it all.
But I think if they did do a 2 it would be best in OVA format. Can be much more Graphic and show stuff it otherwise couldn't show. But also then ti could jsut do a smaller portion. Only do maybe 13 eps or something and maybe have it start with elf girl and go on to when he saves Casca. That is one of hte better stop points I think. But who knows.

I say, rerelease the original, w/ammendments. Wouldn't take much to toss in SK & Puck. It'd simply be edited to contain a tad more footage. Hell, overall, it'd be pretty cheap to do, considering that they wouldn't need to add much to the original 25 eps. It'd be the second season that would contain more of them. First season, would be very introductory for them, so it wouldn't be a big deal overall. It'd at least be a good way to milk more money outta us geek ass fans, cause you know, we'd all have to rush out & buy this new & improved upon (while they're at it, they may as well make it a Creator's UNcut version lol!)box set

Hmmm, it did give more insight to the mission of the Apostles, as well as setting up Zodd as an indiscrimante figure, capable of cutting down those on his side too.
Also, the manga defined the actions of all the characters (aka better character development - even for minor characters that get wiped out) a bit more too - like the king of midland. U dont get to see y Charlotte is still unmarried and y the king is so pissed off in the anime as u do in the manga.

But still couln't air Wyld or the Princess nearly being rapped by her dad on TV. I mean Berserk is graphic enough as is. Though they are not as strict on censorship there are they are here, it stil aired late at night and removed many things that are grphic, like the donavon thing. Which is also important in explaining why Guts hated being touched at the beginning. Also adds more to the scene where he killed Gambino.
Aye, this is why OAV would be the only way to go. Otherwise, I couldn't at all go for it. Censored any moreso than the anime was, is deadly to the story...period. It would have to be straight to DVD OAV (well, could pass for theatrical release if rated I guess).

Ewww! I didn't mean that as a singular, release...sorry! More along the lines of a series of OAV's. No WAY in HELL it'd ever fly as a single. That'd suck a big hairy, Wylde like one...*heaves*Arresty wrote:Theatrical release woudl probably suck. Too mcuh story to cram into short time. They obviously have to take jsut a small part of the story adn convert it to movie, but I could not think of a short enough part of the story that woudl be worth going to theatre.

Actually - on the note of milking us for money - how popular is Berserk right now??? Is it just a niche, or is it reallly big. Casue if it is just a niche - then any sort of project to animate Berserk in any way (or make it live with Halle Berry playing Casca) is just simply not going to happen. (its all about $$$$ T-T)
