  • CG, CG everywhere (Fuck CG)

  • is this a new story. looked like the same old anime ?

  • Wow, Japan and CG. When will they learn that it doesn't look good?

  • Berserk THE BEST manga ever!!! i hope they don't change too much in movies....

  • Fucken epic

  • WHOA WHOA WHOA! Finally more Berserk! I hope this comes out on a US DVD after the theatrical run!

  • YEES!!! OMG YEESS!!!!

  • so...... This is out... now???

  • @onirosco In Japan.

  • What is this strange hot, white liquid coming from my penis?

  • This looks pretty fucking awesome.

  • WOW skyrim turns anime

  • oh my good lord. its finally getting the medium it deserves

  • Oh man this is awesome, i get goosebumps when i think of this!!! Still my favourite anime and manga. A part of me wishes though that they would remake this and follow the manga story perfectly this time, kind of like what they did with the Full Metal Alchemist anime.

  • Does anyone know when it will be out to download of the internet? The suspense is killing me!!!!

  • A waste of my time, the new animation is cheap and shit, they STILL have not adapted the beginning properly (including the bit with the count) and i can't see it lasting, anime is a dying breed, i've met more people my age who've seen chobits and fruits basket than akira or ghost in the shell, it's not what it was. I will buy the DVD and give it a chance to support it as i'm a huge fan and The manga will forever be my favorite manga, but I fail to see the positives in this i'm sorry to say.

  • @KyuubiKris oh cmon, be thankful at least that they are trying to bring this back xD. the only reason why most "care bear" type shit goes mainstream over the good shit is because of censor laws. but that doesnt hold us anime lovers down, we all have our sources.

  • @ForzaS1 Oh I am very thankful, just hoping for it to be a little more grand, but we'll wait and see, who knows...

  • @KyuubiKris whats really sad is you see this with alot of other media too music movies tv etc. its really deppressing

  • @l3054 I dunno, maybe I am being harsh, it's just i was soooo looking forward to it and for it to look the way it does... I've waited almost ten years for it, and they haven't done it the way I wanted it, who knows maybe I'm being to selfish and it will improve only time will tell. haha.

  • @KyuubiKris yea i wish they had continued the series back in the 90s with the old animation style i liked the look of it better

  • Damn it I hate that they're starting from the beginning I wish they did a more later arc.

  • i can't wait till this is released

  • BERUSERUKU! those Japanese :D

  • So when's the DVD release?

  • Yep i just filled my cup with jizz.

  • like or dislike the cg it would of cost too much money, time, and work to make it all hand drawn especially when you consider how much time miura takes with the manga and how much material has yet to be covered.

  • whereas the new CGI shit takes away from the connective depth of the cinematics, it is what it is.

    I can't change the way they've decided to create it.

    I'll still love it undyingly nonetheless.

  • To those talking about the CGI: It is awesome looking. With the CGI there are more extravagant battle scenes and smoother frame transitions. Almost all of it is hand drawn anyway. If you are still a stickler about it go read the manga. It's ongoing and outclasses any of the mainstream (naruto, bleach) animes of today in both the story and illustration catagories.

  • Oh wow. My keyboard just got reeeal messy!

  • Such CG can make almost every country. But making a 2D animation at such level that you can call it art... That can be made only in Japan, nowhere else. They just stripped an anime of one of the factors that define it. This is my opinion so don't even fuckin try bitching at me.

  • awesome

  • jizz'd everywhere

  • The short version of the Anime News Network review:

    + Captivating story and characters, traditional animation problem-free when used.

    − Awkward 3DCG can distract viewers, acting as a potential barrier to enjoy these positives.

  • Take us back to the old hand drawn animation god damn.

  • I JUST SHAT A FUCKING RAINBOW!!!!!!

  • The movie is out now right? Where can I see it? :)

  • Berserk Movie is much more awesome than 300.

  • I am kind of dissapointed, that only people who seem to be interested in these movies, are people who already are Berserk fans. I hoped this would give Berserk new fans and would make more peple aware of the series.

  • @Halgraso I was completely oblivious to Berserk prior to this day, except for one random manga I may or may not have read at some point in time. This movie looks like it will be fucking epic. Your hope has been met at least from my part, my friend ;)

  • @TMzHiT You made my day :-)

    Anyway, one thing you should know. A lot of people felt kind of cheated, when they got to climax of the story (which will come propably in 3. movie). Not really by plot twists, but by the turn of story since that. The thing is, the part of the manga these movies are adapting is one looong flashback and previous chapters made clear, what kind of story Berserk is. Its Witcher/Dragon Age story about revenge and these movies are about what is that revenge for.

  • @TMzHiT And BTW, try not to look up much about the story. You have the gift of unknowingless and trust me, it will really help you enjoy it.

  • @TMzHiT I hope I didnt scared you or something. I just couldt resist :-)

    Sorry.

  • @Halgraso Haha, not scared or anything, no worries :DD No need to apologize either :P Just can't wait!!

  • @Halgraso easy solution to that. just bring your friends who haven't been introduced to it yet.

  • @Merik2013 Awww, aint you cute :-)

  • I'm definitely one of those Berserk fans you speak of! But I think a modern animated version of it will only do positive things to bring the series a bit more mainstream. If the movie just peaks their interest in the characters, it's done its job and then they can check out the source material, which is fucking awesome lol.

  • @ncsaephanh lol is not punctuation!!!!

  • @Halgraso Yo acabo de engancharme a la nueva edición de glenat y estoy encantado. Sin conocer de nada la serie.

  • @Halgraso

    Why do you care if there will be new fans or not?

  • I don't give a shit about the animation or whatever... It's Berserk, it's a movie, and it's something new.. Wonderful!

  • I dont too much mind the cgi animation just as long as its just as good as the original series, but I wish at least they wouldve kept the original sound track of the 90s berserk series . :(

  • Comment removed

  • CGI is crap because it tends to produce a result that looks metallic and lifeless. This is why some 3D anime movies use cel-shading to reduce that effect, but it shows through nonetheless.

  • @haunter600 Your trolling skills are terrible, at least have SOME facts right in your comment to make it somewhat believable. Going for total negativity off the bat makes it too obvious.

  • @ARescueToaster Im not trolling, im looking forward to the movie but from what we've seen so far, i don't see it happening.

    There is one good thing: the original music guy from the anime is doing the music for the movie, so there's that.

    The points i listed are true though. Well, maybe not the 3-6 hours part, could be more or less.

  • @haunter600 No, your points are not true. Maybe in your head they are, but if opinions were facts we'd all be right. Also, if you are basing your facts on this non HD couple second clip, I see no need to even continue pointing out how you are being a troll.

  • @ARescueToaster If you were any kind of berserk fan, you would have seen the pictures on forums comparing movie clips to the manga/anime. There is very little detail.

    '

    I also doubt you know what CGI is, because there is shit-tons of CGI in these clips and most likely the movie.

    Also, look at caskas skin.

  • @haunter600 I have to troll forums to be a fan of something?

    "pictures on forums comparing movie clips to the manga/anime"? Pictures of the movie..? Wow. When people get their hands on the source HD material (1080p, without any compression) I'll listen to complaints about quality. Until then, it's all speculation based on non-HD trailers.

    Also, the only CGI I I see in THIS trailer are the explosions on the siege engines.

    What's your reasoning for being so pessimistic?

  • @ARescueToaster This is pointless. Just wait a couple days and you'll see.

  • Awesome! its been a long ass time

  • why would i want a re-done version of the anime?

  • @haunter600 because if the films go well then an anime or more movies will be made.

  • Seeing CH 73 - CH 88 in this kind of adaptation would be stunningly breathtaking.

  • Радует, что рисовка на высоте

  • ALL I ASK IS NOT TO SEE A 8 YEAR OLD BOY BEING BUTT RAPED BY A GIANT BLACK MAN!!

  • wait is this movie only about the time before the eclipse?? like in the anime or is it going to be even after the eclipse anyone knows???

  • @Arrorn123 I believe the first movie is before. But there are a few movies to follow the cover the entire manga, so they say. So we'll be getting the full story from these movies. =]

  • all the characters looks different from the episode

    

  • I am so happy Skull Knight is in this.

  • I wish they just continued the anime. :(

  • @haunter600 me to i love the animation in the movie but agree %100 that it should have continued the anime

  • awesome stuff. gotta catch up on the manga

  • kinda sucks its not a second season or a better animated remake, just a movie, but still excited nonetheless since the manga has such an awesome story. also sucks that the author has had writer's block for years now.

  • can somebody please tell me witch day it will come out! it would have been a huge help!

  • @dastingoman either february 2nd or february 7th 2012 so in about 2 weeks

  • @ystconnection thank you!

  • is this going to be in western theatres?

  • I want this video on my VE538 phone.

  • MWYAAAAAAAHW! Was my response. I stand by it.

  • ME GUSTA OVERLOAD!!!!!

  • Does anyone have any theories on how this effects Berserk lovers in the UK? Can't imagine this being the kind of thing that comes to cinema unless it is a one off thing. Or is it going straight to DVD? I'm so fucking excited for this.

  • Omg I can't believe it

  • BERSERKURU :11

  • about dame time

  • Theme song by: Susumu Hirasawa

    Music by: Shiro Sagisu

  • my mind nutted so hard it brought a tear to my eye and gave me goosebumps

  • Honestly, call me weird, but I much prefer hand-drawn animation to this new CGI stuff. The old Berserk stand looks cool to me, despite being dated.

  • @bobjimjones I know what you mean. As much as people say series like Berserk have aged, I really liked the style of the old anime.

  • @bobjimjones Agree 100%

  • @bobjimjones

    Weird? Weird are those who prefer the CG.

  • Comment removed

  • @bobjimjones

    agreed however it still looks pretty sweet.... and you know... ITS BERSERK!

  • Why are people calling CGI (3d animation) crap when it produces flawless physically accurate animations? In traditional hand-drawn animation, accuracy of the dimensions of the subject in every frame is dependent on the ability and knowledge of the human animator. I, personally have an idea of how much work 3d animation require. They seem to think that the computer does everything. 3d animation softwares are just tools but they are very complicated and it takes years to learn how to use them.

  • @YPhtube i like the more traditional 2-d animation. it gives the show a completely different feel.

  • Im very dissapointed. Its just will not be the same. This cant top the original anime just because this looks like some CGI crap. Maybe it will be more truthful adaption i agree but it makes no difference if it turns out to be something like this. Doesnt look epic at all. Looks unnatural.. You can instantly see especially in combats how computer animated those are. I cant call myself a real fan and I havent read the manga but i can say that real Berserk fan shouldnt like this. I mean look at it.

  • @NordenTV You are the worst kind of fool. The kind who doesn't know how truly stupid you are.

  • @Tahrgat You seem to be one of the kind who doesnt appreciate old good handmade animations. You see there was a time when man could create something beautiful with hands. Now everything is computer animated and it looks crap as i stated. youre fooling yourself if you think otherwise. Only 11-15 yrs old "fanboys" might prefer this new style. So yes i guess that makes me the worst kind of fool. Im sorry guys, but that animation style itself ruins the mood for me. Might be better adaption though.

  • @NordenTV Lol the fact that you haven't even read the manga means you wouldn't fully appreciate this anyway. Go watch your retro anime if that's what you want. And....the "original" anime, was shit.

  • @ReploidRevolution Like i said, this might be more truthful adaption of original manga, but if you really think this "animation" style is going to be superior then i cant see how could you be a true fan either. What excatly was "shit" in original ? The adaption or animation style ? Ive heard that the anime is quite different from original manga so i can understand if thats your reason. I was only criticizing the animation here. Looks like straight from ps2 game or something...

  • @NordenTV yes i was criticizing the original adaptation for the changes they made. And this particular youtube video has shitty quality, /watch?v=WF3OP3f2I10, try that one and see if it doesn't change your opinion. And its not as if the entire thing is CGI animated. Its increasingly common for high quality anime studios to incorporate computer generated animation into their series alongside standard animation. Ergo Proxy, for example makes use of this. Hell even Naruto does.

  • @NordenTV Listen JR.I am a fan of Berserk, I have been since before it was ever printed in America. Only a presumptuous fool would crusade on behalf or against something that they do not understand. You immediately thought I was talking about the animation style, WRONG. You just keep revealing yourself to be a bigger and bigger idiot.But, hey, thanks for proving me right. I am looking foreword to this and I like the new animation style, but you are the only child here.

  • @Tahrgat Damn right :3

  • @Tahrgat Wow you got fucking told you prick.

  • it's a global premiere ?

  • thanks for the translation

  • CHECK OUT THE BERSERK TWITTER!!! ;D

  • @kingarthas25 where?

  • YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! I WEEP BLOODY TEARS OF JOY AT THE SHEER EPIC AMAZING AWESOMENESS! As long as the movies dont take up to much of ol' kentaro's time so he can keep making distilled awesome, I WANT MORE! I WANT TO GO TO JAPAN SO I CAN BURN THE FILM AND SNORT THE ASHES!

  • :O)

  • i think Griffith drawing is better in anime <<<

  • JANUARY ONE!

    SCREW FIREWORKS AND FOOD! I'D STARVE TO DEATH UNTIL I SEE THE WHOLE NEW BERSERK! 

  • @kingarthas25 fucking sucking drunken son of a bitch couldn't agree more!!!!!!

  • I hope we get to see rape scenes.

  • @thecucafairy tha fuck is wrong with you

  • @thecucafairy

    Boy that is some wishful thinking.

  • I am so phuqing glad they are doing this. Finally a great manga is going to have its chance at ruling the anime world (go fuccck yourselves naruto and death note fans). This is just the beginning of every Berserk fans wish to santa, finally a series based off the manga, redoing the old series and hopefully carrying out the rest of the manga into animation production. EPIC!

  • @ys0seri0us Death Note is a great anime. Berserk is a great manga. Why all this hate?

  • Ummmmmmmm, how the fuck can they cover the manga up, if it's like 3 parts!???? Why didn't they just start a whole series out of this!?... -_-'

  • @Brollyhero93TOP10 Dude yeah i know it sucks but this is JUST THE BEGINNNING. If warner bros is backing it and it gets great results, then there's gonna be more movies for sure. They didnt do it this way because in the 90's Miura didnt get a great budget and i mean seriously the anime is nothing compared to the manga so lets hope they just pretend like the original anime never happened..

  • waiiiit is this just going to reanimate some of the stuff from the series or is it going to provide fucking answers. like idk ummm episode 1 for that matter? i wanna see him find and kill Griffith!

  • @runeflame16 I'm pretty sure it's supposed to cover all the shit after the anime ended.

  • @bokuzenkosugi from what it looks like they are doing the whole beginning over, hopefully filling in the fantasia parts they took out when they did the anime the first time. I dont care if they leave stuff out again, I'm just glad Berserk it back! Finally gonna see some anime action and story worth watching.

  • @ys0seri0us Well that's good then.  I never watched the anime, I only read the manga.

  • @runeflame16 If you read the manga you get all the answers you seek and more.. well not the part of when griffith and gutz fight, no one but the creator knows that yet since it hasn't even been released in the manga.

  • I ONLY WAITED LIKE TEN YEARS FOR THIS

  • @vegavak indeed my friend

    also January what?

  • omg make this yessssssssssssss

  • Just hope they don't censor it for "modern times"

  • 14 people couldn't get the Jizz off there computer.

  • FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF DO WANT

  • somebody needs to put this on IMDb

  • Literally the best anime of all time in my opinion.

    It's finally getting the recognition it deserves.

  • swords too small. guts need a sword that is physically impossible for a mere mortal to carry. it needs to be wider. length is fine. :)

  • @similik101 Guts has had many swords, over time they've become bigger because his strength has increased, that's just one of those swords.

  • Never heard of Fake Eclipse or Ganishka. But I read all the main books, from the first to the most recent.

  • I had all the anime, read all the manga. Why doing a remake? Fans wanted the continued of the manga

  • Skullknight?! YES PLEASE!!!

  • kind of looks like this time its going to last alot longer and the SKULL KNIGHT is awesome

  • Finalmattasy clearly didn't read the Fake Eclipse Arc or the Ganishka Arc.

  • I came!

  • yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhh!!!!!!babyYEAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!­!!!!!!

  • The first festival is, and always will be, the core of Berzerk as a series. The following manga wanderings have lost their focus is a massive way. They're crap compared to the Golden Age arc.

  • I just finished reading ALL of the Berzerk manga over the past few days... I recommend that nobody waste their time, unless you love manga. In which case you've probably already read it.

    The story after end of the tv series has it's good parts, but it really can't touch the events of the tv series. It just introduces more side-characters and, in many ways, repeats the cycle already shown on tv, in a bigger (ala dragonball type) fashion, minus the weakness, and motivating factors, of Griffith.

  • @finalmattasy how can you read ALL of it.. it's still not done. there is a new chapter coming out in a month or so.

  • @S0ryiu He says "from the first to the most recent" so he knows its not done

  • OH MY FUCKING BAJESUS WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN? MY MIND IMPLODED INSIDE MY PANTS

  • GIVE IT HITHER

  • Skyrim!

  • Just imagine the fight scenes while Guts has the BERSERKER ARMOR ON O.O

    /INSTA-GASM

  • @HINDERIZED i'm imagining more on how the brutal rape scenes would look like @_@

  • Yes, Finally! 

  • berserk came out beforeeee i was born... i hope he finishes it soon i heard he wants to go till volume 50 and hes only by 35..... sheit i hope im still alive by the time hes done im so curious as to how ts going to end!!! BUT I CANT WAIT ...till i see the movie lol

  • @fullmetal891

    thats not the dragonslayer

  • @DukeDumas Guts doesn't receive the dragonslayer until after the golden age story arc.

  • @DukeDumas No it isn't, I am.

  • They made Guts's sword too small

  • is it going to follow manga more then the tv series?

  • I was born in this world just to see this movie...

    My purpose in Life... is like a truck BEERSEEERKER

  • @rodri968 haaaaaaaaaaaahh brilliant.

  • @mana2432

    whats wrong with them I think their good characters

  • @DukeDumas Nothing wrong with them as characters, they just don't fit into waht Berserk used to be.

  • Miura needs to kill off Farnese and Ishidoro for social justice

  • Golden age arc will have 3 parts?

  • Who else can't wait?

  • berserek!

  • Wow, Warner Bros. did the studio. Now I know it's going to be a great movie

  • @h2dennis they are trying apart

  • They have to give guts a real manly gritty voice.. or im not going to watch it

  • Did anyone realize the artwork look similar to the anime, Claymore's art style? :p
