Isn't Berserk just Conan (the Barbarian) meets the Evil Dead? Or at least that's what that one CG anime from 2016 felt like.

It makes me think of that one stand-up comedian (can't loving remember the name rn) who mentions how unlikely it'd be for their random knowledge of Joe Pesci trivia to save them in a life-or-death situation.

Dark Souls is heavily influenced by Berserk so it's not a bad comparison really.

berserk's first arc is a serious war story, and then afterwards it becomes the story of a broken down, sad man slowly finding friends and learning to trust again, and being torn between his impulse to protect and nurture those companions and his twisted desire for revenge against the person who took everything from him to begin with. it is a mostly emotional drama, with the twisted, tattered relationship between guts and griffith at its center.

Though it is definitely showing its age I would recommend people watch the original Berserk anime.

Not referring to the series as a whole or the manga, just the 2016 series.

The 90's anime nails the atmosphere even if it misses out a few things and the animation is uh sometimes not

he keeps getting distracted by his new passions, drawing each chapter of beserk with ever increasingly detailed backgrounds, and drawing short unrelated works featuring childlike characters in uncomfortably sexual positions
