  • They gay it up or something!

  • omg I didn't know about this I was obsessed with this manga 5 years ago, and now it comes back in my life all shiny and pretty aaah IS THIS GOING TO HIT WESTERN CINEMA OR SOMETHING??

  • @JuhhFalaschi Its like that ex in you life that you loved so much but left and broke your heart...Now all of a sudden their back!

    ;)

  • @JuhhFalaschi btw check out this version : /watch?v=U8NDDzEeNAI

    Its an extended trailer that captures the true beauty & essence of the Berserk series. 

  •  Trust me, I'm going to get myself that Berserk movie if I have to find a guy in an alley who sells the movie on DvD, VHS, and a T-shirt out the trunk of his stolen car.

    Yes, a Berserk the movie T-shirt, make it happen.

  • @Thefelstalker I got one more! Are you ready? LOL!

  • Om nom nom DAT CGI... OTL

  • Im not digging the slow balled music, I hope they dont use that in the actual movies. I wouldn't mind a remixed neo type folk song that would fit the time & theme of the movie.

  • @acuna13 They had some in the original as well, this one even slow must be in their soundtrack it is beautiful and so gutts.

    /watch?v=xUTgXlKxVqQ

  • @BiReal To be honest, after listening to it and watching the trailers over and over, Im starting to appreciate it more & more. I especially like this one: /watch?v=U8NDDzEeNAI

    It captures the song much better on the extended trailer.

  • @acuna13 AMEN!

  • thumps up if you want the movie to have at least 75% of the episode graffics

  • @jose54332 AMEN to that jose. Finally I find somebody that thinks like me.

  • anyone know where i can watch the movie seeing that its 2/22/12 and i heard it came out in January

  • Guts and Casca looked like tougher and also looked like nicer people in the old art. They look weaker and look like jerks in the new art.

  • can someone tell me how long is the movie and if it's start is the same as the manga?

  • @DarthSargerus 1.5 hours, and starts off at the castle siege where Guts kills Bazuso.

  • Comment removed

  • The animation sequences are very similar to the 'ANIME' *fix* though there are minor changes at times (I can't be sure of the dialogue as I don't understand Japanese).

  • The CGI is awesome, we actually get some real gore!, they did skip some parts naturally since it is a movie and not spread over so many discs/episodes. This will make it seem disjointed to those that haven't seen the anime nor read the manga but I don't see the uninitiated as their intended audience.

  • The previous sentence makes sense especially where they decided to end the first movie, its not much of a cliffhanger, in fact *SPOILER ALERT* **But not really** it ends at the part where Griffith states what a true friend is at the fountain with the princess.

  • *End Spoiler* The animation sequences are very similar to the manga though there are minor changes at times (I can't be sure of the dialogue as I don't understand Japanese). It doesn't start out like the anime did however it does show the crew guts rolls with after the eclipse Puck, Isidro, Skullknight etc. So we can be rest assured they continue the story past the eclipse unlike the anime.

  • Comment removed

  • I hope griffith dies a painful death.

  • @pwnedp Despite being cold-hearted and selfish bastard, Griffith remains the coolest character of this serie :)

  • /fapfapfapfap

  • Zodd's scene looked bad fucking ass man. Screw K-ON! Berserk has the blood and thus only Hardcore fans would watch it. Not the little girls and boys and Otakus.

  • I'm in Okinawa and its playing at the theater, I'll give details once I see it, tomorrow.

  • @Ksmithx85 How was it???

  • Im dying to see this movie... where can I see it?

  • The Best Manga Ever Period.

  • BERSERK!!! WHOOPIIIEEE one of the best anime ever. I was skeptical when I started watching the show but then it got realy interesting & instantly took me on a roller coaster ride till the wtf ending. Then i desperatley looked for season 2 to realise the show was cancelled. I was miserable as it became of my favs of all time. I even luv'd the mediocre opening theme. Compelling characters, tons of gore & nudity along with a great fantasy tale. It easily deserves the cult following it has.

  • damnit I have this whole collection but I cant find anything about the black swordsman other than the first episode where he fought the snake guy. ive been a fan but im not into it mch anyone help??

  • anyone see the horrible blue seed movie that was like 50 episodes of the anime condensed into 1 movie. didnt work out to well idk how well this will work out. but i still want to watch it hopefully the part 2 will be after the several chapter long flashback.

  • you KNOW its going to be fucking kick ass. 90% of anime can be weak but there are gems that transcend the media form to be some of the greatest works of art this side Greek tragedy.. Berserk not only has one of the most philosophical, thought provoking plots, in a bleak, causality driven real world, but backs it up with captivating panoramas of bloodlust & carnage, with hellspawned beasts, grotesquely sexual yet human, in this fantasy of unparalleled intricacy that bleeds pure kickass.

  • Where can I find that song "Something Beautiful" by Ai? Whenever I try to search it, I find the singer (I think) Called Ai Cherie, but it's just a video on how beautiful she is. I find a song called "Beautiful" by Ai, but it is definitely not the song I'm looking for.

    Assuming the singer is Asian, she sure does have the voice of a black woman in the song.

  • Nothing can sever their bonds....

    Guts: GRIFFIIIIITH!!!!!

  • I hopen the dubbed version uses the same voices. They were all good apart from one of the minor characters has the same voice as Goku.

  • 這部真的很經典....

    雖然有點忘了.

    但勾起許多回憶..

  • Any word if the movie will be dubbed in english?

  • The movie didn't sell very well in Japan :/

    Meanwhile, the K-ON! movie is like 1,000x more popular.

    Fuck this gay earth.

  • @AnimeGuruma No, it did well enough. It was in a limited release yet had one of the highest averages per screening. Besides, these films were made with the international market in mind, a market that Berserk tends to do well in. I wouldn't sweat it just yet.

  • @thedigitalsin Really? I guess I'm wrong then.... INTERNATIONALLY?

    So...would that mean that we would have a chance to have a screening of it in US theaters?

    Hm...maybe not....maybe just at some specialized film theaters.

    It's a good thing I live close to a city with a theater that screens animation movies.

  • @thedigitalsin can u provide a link or something? thanks in advance

  • @thedigitalsin They didn't focus to much internationally though since it was only released in Japan. Cool they doing this although I just wish they just remade a anime series for it. But doing it in film increments will boost its popularity a lot if they do go international with it.

  • @AnimeGuruma

    I dont blame the people didnt go see it.......

    This is a remake of original anime. Nothing more nothing less...

    They had to do what hellsing OVA does. 100% stick to original manga than bring the same story with better visuals once again.

    But hey , i love it either way. Just saying

  • @Azatis Yeah, but the Berserk anime series was what, back in the '90s?

    I doubt that all of the movie viewers watched the tv anime.

    It's just that anime these days are the most popular if they have kawaii schoolgirls and high school slice of life in them; so obviously the K-ON movie got so many views.

  • I just hope that the movie doesn't get censored..... seriously Berserk is not Berserk without all the blood, gore and darkness...every part that people would think it should be censored or modified for kids is a very important factor in this epic tale...I pray it wont be some crappy washed up kids version

  • please get released in the US.

  • best manga ever, and Miura is a freakin genius :D why did it take sooo long for them to finally release a movie about it, its Berserk after all this series deserves an epic screening.

  • reading the manga i got the feeling that all that had happened happened before and the skull knight was in the same position as guts at one point. the armour that guts is wearing now was his armour and he has just as much hatred of the god hand as guts if not more , the story shows that underneath the prison is a dead city with body's each of witch has a brand on them my guess is that city was one that the skull knight was in , zodd seems to also know him quite well

  • what is the music that starts at the beginning all the way through 0:40?

  • @madgamer23 "Aria" by Susumu Hirasawa

  • A video player within a video player. VIDEOCEPTION

  • @XthebigXcheeseX you can read the whole manga in any online free manga sites ex. Mangafox

  • 动画看起来很酷

  • where can i watch this

  • WTF is this shit? The beginning and end of this series does not make any sense, i want to know how guts got to where he was killing the snake demon in the beginning of season one =( so confusing

  • @XthebigXcheeseX thats why there is manga

    original anime was not good at telling the full story

  • @XLennywiseX So it explains the story to full extent in manga? Do they sell the script?

  • @XthebigXcheeseX The first episode was actually the last in the anime.

    The main storyline is Guts joining the Band of the Hawk and all the things that follow. Then him becoming the Black Swordsman and going from there.

    This will re-tell Guts joining the Band of the Hawk.

  • @MadnessJuan Right but, i have no clue how he even escaped the hell after Griffith turned into a demon king. How the hell did he get out of that mess? And so now he is a demon hunter? Well they continue with him hunting demons?

  • @XthebigXcheeseX Read the manga. So many things to explain that you really are better off reading the manga if you only saw the anime. Some things will blow yer mind apart.

  • @XthebigXcheeseX As it's been said, read the manga. I couldn't possibly explain what has happened within 10 years of the manga lol.

    But he basically "Gets help" and escapes with Casca, then he gets healed up, gets new gear and vows to kill Griffith, all the other God Hand, and any demons who are constantly chasing him as he has that mark that bleeds everytime a demon is near.

    And yes, he's still, to this day, hunting them down.

  • @MadnessJuan Right, i started to read it. The only thing i dont get is who the hell is the Skeleton knight that is helping him out?

  • My life will be complete when I see this

  • Griffith you son of a bitch!

  • @silver3178 I second that opinion

  • I live in Japan, and you better believe I'm gonna watch the shit out of this in theatres.

  • @MrSlippery123 when is it going to be released? The only thing im sure about is that it will be shown this February...

  • @kingarthas25 um its already out in japan the movie that is the dvd probabaly in 6 months or so

  • @kingarthas25 Yeah, it came out on the 4th.

  • @MrSlippery123 so how was it?

  • @magmar16 とても良かったです It was great. I actually brought a friend of mine who didn't know anything about Berserk and he said he was "sucked into it." According to the credits, the next movie is coming out in June.

  • fapfap

  • As a big fan of the manga, i just wanted to give my opinion to you guys, and i don't like this at all =s ! First, Guts doesn't look like Guts ? What is wrong with his face ? Why does he have his eyes half closed all time, and weird smiles on his face ? And why does Griffith have the voice of Raito in Death note ? And why is there some weird/not-berserk-like-at-all music in the background ? That's the questions in my head...But i fully respect if you guys loves this version, just my opinion =) !

  • TODAY!

  • same voice actor as luffy?!

  • thanks god,, I HAVE A RESSON TO LIVE AGAIN

  • Will berserk be dubbed into english?

  • It's out in Japan right now. Now if only I could watch it.

  • Woo! Comes out in Japan tomorrow. Hopefully it does well enough to be brought to the West.

  • Wow this is finally what I've been waiting for but if they did it right the first time with the music/sound track from the first; would be magnificent. Lol when can we see it?

  • Is it my imagination or they don't even try to advertise berserk outside of Japan? WTF.

  • @mesmerakos It's only showing in theatres in Japan. While it may be popular world-wide, there is not a strong enough fan-base to really make money internationally perhaps. Although Gantz did at least have that one-night worldwide showing....I don't see why they couldn't do a road-tour like redline either....it is rather frustrating I want to see this so bad but I have to wait for the DVD. GOD-DAMNIT

  • AMERICAN VERSION:

    Absolute death awaits! You can not escape it!

    [brief pause]

    And the prom's tomorrow!

  • @daveshn hahah. Guts Washington Eisenhower.

  • @Foryeva

    Least there's already a black gang member for them to use.

  • @daveshn wow there is. true dat yo.

  • @daveshn tru dat yo! ("true dat yo" indeed inevitable black gang member)

  • @Denevue

    'Inevitable'? They already have a black gang member.

  • @daveshn really? well shit now all Gatts/Guts needs is a talking magical sword

  • @daveshn Ha, American Akira

  • Damn Caska looks ugly in this one. Fuck.

  • @zadrot2008 No she doesnt....you're just seeing a few frames from somewhat awkward angles. Anyone can look ugly at the right angle.

  • Man this Anime almost made me cry just wish it was longer only 25 eps and no resolve. i havnt seen this version though is it good?

  • @manolocampos78 I have no idea, but I don't believe it to be found on dvd releases or blu-ray. The cuts are all logical since only 300 minutes will cover up 10 volumes. In the original series they used 500 minutes to cover up those 10 volumes. Be prepared for many missing details and so on...

  • its a remake 4 the anime right ??? i mean its not a movie ??

  • @1pieceq8 It's a series of movies and it's being made so they can adapt the entire manga. The first three will cover the Golden Age arc.

  • @alloalload sounds cool tho i guess it will take a very long time lol and ty

  • score is the music fyi

  • 1 more thing, what a fucking horrible crappy generic score.

  • Fail. This CG crap looks god awful Griffith looks nothing like he should, and the original Japanese voices in the good one are way better.. Japanese dub with english subs is the only version to watch. This trailer made me sick......

  • @ZeroCoolStar

    Check out Volume 22 of the manga.  Griffith does look that way in the manga. The anime series on tv is not something you should be going by but from the manga. Look up on spectrum nexus anime site for berserk manga vol 22 you see.

  • Am I the only one who can't wait to see the Skull Knight fuck some people up?

  • where's Caska's black sugarness??

  • @JCMELKOR That's what I'd like to know. >_>

  • I don't want to bitch too much, but that's a complete different character design than in the manga. They could try be a little bit more similar to Miura's art.

  • CG haha nope, not for me

  • When is the actual American release? Is it February like the actual release or is it 6 months later like I keep hearing

  • People are so harsh on the original anime. I thought it had plenty of aspects worth defending.

    Great sense of pacing and music, qualified cast, and a sense that it actually takes itself seriously. Something the manga hasn't really done these past few years.

  • Sorry if i misspelled some words my fingers are to big for my touch screen lol

  • @shingnosis Are u fuckin blind look at how much better the quality of that shitty original to the new one! Like mastrepolo said Even Kentaro Miura himself said that it was crappy and dude cmon since when are eglish voice actirs better then japanese.... they always horrible but there are anime where some of the english voice are good but that only comes around every 10 years or so

  • is this a film?

    where can i watch it?

  • @LadyNatasha100 it will be out on the 4th of feb in japan i think bro it will be well worth watching

  • anyone kno the name of the song

  • Nothing is going to beat the original anime. It is a rare masterpiece.

    Somehow they got together some of the world's best writers, animators, voice actors and music workers and somehow they all churned out the work of their life. As far as I'm concerned the original anime is up there with Shakespeare, I'm in awe of how good it is.

  • @shingnosis are you joking? Kentaro Miura himself stated that he hated the anime that was produced it was under budget lowly produced english voice actors were terrible and by terrible im mean god awful and too short(they had to cut off a few episode because they ran out of money)and they did a travesty to the whole eclipse part they left out huge parts so for me reading berserk for almost 20 years now(yes it has been out long then that even) i can not wait til the new films come out

  • they would be ten times better then the anime that came out years ago that rape berserk like femto rape caska

  • @mastrepolo Thank you. This is entirely correct. The production quality, while important, is really second to the story. I think the inclusion of the Skull Knight, Puck, and other key elements are more important. Not to mention we may eventually get into the other arcs.

  • @mastrepolo: "english voice actors were terrible". Don't tell me you're watching japanese anime dubbed to english??? No - the original anime was a masterpiece but yes, it should have contined... but it's still a masterpiece.

    Anyone expecting better from this newer production will be dissapointed.

  • @shingnosis pfff...the only good thing about the original was that people who hadn't heard of the manga could enjoy some of the story (like me). Also, it helped ppl find the manga.The frame rate was so shit that it basically was a manga itself, lol.

  • @mastrepolo ive seen the anime series a couple times now and i think its great all but the end that is.

  • @mastrepolo The english voice cast was amazing as far as i'm concerned. Anime dubs today are horrible for the most part. I'm just glad they're redoing this series.

  • @HINDERIZED I felt the same way. Guts/Gatsu (however you prefer....) had a GREAT English dub. Also, am I the only one hyped that they kept Suzumu Hirasawa for the musical score?

  • @protoman385 Original composer ftw

  • @mastrepolo do you mean that 2012 Berserk movie is going to cut out a few episode because they ran out of money?sorry i dun knw which u are talking about is 2000year that old berserk or this new berserk...

  • @pompomdidi he was talking about the old anime.

  • @n4ruto1k4 that was lucky!i hope this new berserk 2012 dun shortcut those most epic moment of the manga!like the eclipse part where the skull knight enter

  • @pompomdidi he was talking about the old berserk lmao

  • @mastrepolo

    Can give us the source where he states that he hates the first series? Where do you got that from?

  • @mastrepolo No he did not say that. The anime was good. With a great soundtrack and great voice actors. The animation budget is what to be expected in 1990. Don't spread misinformation.

  • @mastrepolo Terrible? hardly. English dubs are better at finding voice matches IF they manage it, while Japanese voice actors tend to sound more natural on average(more so if you do not speak the language). I'd rate berserk's English voice actors to be equal if not superior to the Japanese voice actors if not for Griffith alone. English Griffith blows the Japanese one away. Guts could be down to preference. In English i do find him better when he is an adult.

  • @mastrepolo you know whats funny. There were actually more episodes in the anime than in the manga in which period the anime took place. For example the part with capturing the fort on the bridge was not in manga.

  • @mastrepolo well i thought guts had an epic english voice actor one of the best ive heard but the list of best english voices actors ive heard is very low its like 2 or 3 but still guts voice actor is just EPIC!!

  • @bleachblade100 Did you hear the english dubbed version already for berserk?

  • @wildcats122448 i was talking about the anime series berserk not the movie

  • @mastrepolo Really? Miura hated the anime? Well I can see how he would but I still like it. With such limited funding they did a great job with it. The only problem I had with it was they took out a few parts like guts being sodomized, I can understand editing out the whole scene but at least mention it. It was the whole reason he acted the way he did before and after he joined the hawks. And of course the whole fight with the count. Other than that it's still a great anime.

  • @Creepynazgul the anime including the movies that are to come.

    tell the same story but some parts are showed later or earlier.

    they want make the movies more like the manga.

  • @mastrepolo 20 years of Berserk? :D damn you're a veteran. I've only just started the manga two days ago and I LOVE it!

  • @mastrepolo damn... how have you managed to read Berserk for almost 20 years? was only released in the US in 2003 lol

  • @Xarcand13 no my friend this manga was published almost 1982 n japan and u can see that from the drawing but it didnt grab the attention of the US dudes until 2003

  • @Xarcand13 it helps when you l lived in japan parents were stationed there it took a while for me to read the Japanese writing but after a few years it gets easier its funny now when rereading the old chapters that have been translated on how wrong i was lol

  • Guts is my hero :)

    They better not have a halfway decent soundtrack like the anime had. Berserk deserves better!

  • so lets get this straight

    all the episodes of the anime was about 500 minutes, or 8.3 hours

    theres going to be 3 movies to cover the golden age arc

    we can assume they're going to be 1 - 2 hours each

    so the entire arc is going to be 3-6 hours

    in the anime, even though it went for 8.3 hours, they missed out on so much probably because of time issues.

    How are the movies going to be close to the manga if they're even SMALLER than the anime, which already missed out on so much?

  • @haunter600 The difference will probably be that the details that were missed in the anime were ones that had to do with the plot further on. They kept details that could have been removed and the plot still make sense. The anime focused on Golden age arc, while the movies will focus on the grand story.

  • I'm missing Nobutoshi Hayashi. It's not really Gutsu without him!

  • Omaewa orenotame ni tatakae.Omaewa oreno mono nan dakarana!

    You fight only for me. Because you are now belongs to me!

  • MY BODY IS READY IM MAKUNG A TIME MACHINE AN GOING IN THE FUTURE AND BRINING BACK ALL THE EPISODES AND UPLOADING THEM i will be back

  • Song is awesome.

    

  • I want to go to Japan just to watch this in the movie theater.

  • The berserk trilogy and the dark knight rises my only upcoming films I want to see. I am just hoping the berserk film trilogy is release here in the U.S. anyone know of a confirm us release?

  • Not impressed with what they are doing. I am basing this off watching the TV Anime which was 26 episodes. The TV Anime was awesome and epic but, tt seems that all they are doing is using the same footage from the TV Anime and piecing together a movie. Hopefully Part 2 and Part 3 will bring something entirely new footage.

  • Cool! Is this going to be in English too?

  • hope they bring the english crew back for this as well, that was a great dub

  • @pulmonaryarchery88 Along with the outtakes sessions. lol

  • i cant wait to watch this subtitled....oh wait sopa...nvm

  • I just came.

  • Why is Griffith wearing lipstick?? WHY? lol

  • So...this is basically just a remake of the anime?

    Why?

  • @schlegelt No. Well, this movie is, but like 5 other movies will follow that will depict the entire Berserk saga (Don't know how they're gonna do that seeing how the series hasn't ended yet, but I'll take their word for it). And why doesn't anyone research before commenting? Sorry, but I've answered a lot of these comments already. "Why is it like the series", "Why aren't they doing something else" Shut up and google it already! X(

  • @Settlers6 ^_^

  • @schlegelt Not even a remake... Its looks like they are just using the TV Anime and piecing together a movie.  What a joke.

  • Oh, fuck off with this shit. You can go buy the series on DVD or watch it online, or better yet, read the epically long comic. You don't need to wait for these movies, which look absolutely Disney-fied and a waste of time.
