Pink_Chipmunk said: I haven't read or watched breserk. Can you please tell if I can watch this without watching the previous adaptations No you don’t, the 97 version is a adaptation of the golden age, so are the movies and now this. But regardless read the manga |
| This and 1997 is the basically the same story of the golden age arc. So if you want to get through golden age in half the time, watch this. If you want a more thorough experience 1997. You don't need to see one to u deratand the other Neither anime is particularly long anyways |
| Rather you should skip this, the movie trilogy and just watch the original 90s anime only. It'll save you so much grief. |

While I prefer the anime from 1997 when it comes to Berserk adaptations, Studio 4°C's anime is a nice way to experience Berserk, especially for modern viewer who might not be that much excited about this franchise, but wants to check it out to see if it is worth to invest time into it. Memorial Edition, despite skipping a lot of content, is fun to watch and has really nice looking visuals. Good idea would be watching both 1997 anime and Memorial Edition, starting from Memorial Edition, though. But it all depends on one's free time and will to invest it into watching two shows presenting pretty much the same plot (if we are talking about its core). What might be skipped are the movies. No need to watch them if somebody is not a huge fan of Berserk, especially when Memorial Edition is there. Movies are inferior to Memorial Edition in many ways, anyway. |

Movies are inferior in many ways, anyway. But to be honest with you, Grifith is made to look like a woman in both the movies and Memorial Editio, with the puckered lips. In the 1997 anime he looked great. So based on that alone, people should ignore everything, apart from the 1997 anime. Don't you think? |

KinjiKido said: I just finished this TV version. I was just wondering if I need to watch the old 1997 version too or not? my situation right now is short on time. unless it's really worth it. Yes and no. The '97 Anime , the Trilogy of Movie and this TV Memorial adapted the same Arc (The Golden Age) , but every adaptation of Berserk have a problem or two. The '97 Anime skipped some details , and the production quality is really average , even for an Anime of its time. The Trilogy of Movie and this TV Memorial altered/skipped most of the content of the same Arc , so it's a bad idea to continue from here. The 2016 & 17 Animes adapted the continuation of the Golden Age Arc , but have a terrible CGI , considered as one of the worst ever made. As usual , the answer is to read the Manga instead. You'll have the complete story as the Author wanted you to experience , on top of having a top-notch Art. |
