![]() How they deal with them and try their best to make them happen, how they sometimes doubt the path they are going down, and even how certain characters end up getting crushed under the weight of their own ambitions. Both these shows are very character-driven. With all sorts of characters of different personalities and backgrounds interacting and trying to make the best of themselves and if possible each other. Some characters are eventually forced to make huge sacrafices only to wonder if it was all worth it whereas others dream of things that are way out of their reach. Two very unusual, character-driven shows that discuss themes like 'ambition' and 'society' in very engaging ways. Both are excellent anime well worth a watch if you want a more serious watch.This first animated version of the series was worked on by Oriental Light and Magic with Naohito Takahashi working as a director. This version adapts the "Black Swordsman" and "Golden Age" arcs. The series revolves around Guts looking back at his days with the Band of the Hawk mercenary group, led by Griffith. Various characters from the manga were cut entirely or had their roles combined in the story, such as Puck, Donovan, and the Skull Knight. Cutting out the Skull Knight infamously caused a bit of a plot hole or cliffhanger since it was never explained how Guts or Casca escaped from the Eclipse event. Generally, the violence and mature nature of the original manga were toned down for the anime, although the story notably ends on a depressing note. Added to that, cutting some of the gags in the manga helped to give the anime a more serious tone.įollowing the anime series, fans got two licensed video game adaptations: Berserk Millennium Falcon Arc: Chapter of the Flowers of Oblivion, which came out in 1999, and Berserk: Millennium Falcon Arc - Chapter of the Holy Demon War, which came out in 2004. Meant directly for fans, much of the story is expected to already be understood by players, unless they read the supplementary material.
