| Well, that was an intense battle. |
 |
| the osts used this ep during the battle were great |
 |
| Even the strongest of fortresses will fall when you have an idiot like that ruling over you. |
 |
| The blood rain over the field was amazing next to the Gut´s sword slash!!! kekekek |
| Whose idea was it to replace Zodd with a damn flag? |
| Iirc didn't zodd help win that fight? when he threw his sword to guts? or perhaps twas a different fight. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
Rasco said: Iirc didn't zodd help win that fight? when he threw his sword to guts? or perhaps twas a different fight. Nah you're right, only the '97 anime adapted this. Iirc, the movie trilogy never added this bit but I could be wrong. |
| i never understood why the movie thought it d be a good idea to change Zodd helping Guts |
 |
| Another fabulous episode. Shout out to the exceptional music/soundtrack/sound-design. Such epic, powerful symphonic action is thrilling and on point. Fondue, what a battle. Guts upon guts upon guts. This one episode is a frantic ride, some top-notch action-adventure. |
| This really doesn't work in episodic format. Transition between episodes is terrible. Series has no momentum whatsoever... |
| already knew since episode 1 that the second part from the movie will get the new scenes and hoping the third ones will get one too, still disappointing that they didn't replace it with zodd helping guts. and oh... charlotte scene, that was new scene to me. |
 |
| who killed the captain assistant of the purple Rhinos (Eye-patch guy) |
| didn't saw baby zodd. That scene tho when corkus was kissing a maiden. "Me too" |

| The fact that people will defend this series because “it's an adaption of Berserk” is sad. The movies weren't a good adaption. This series, despite its additions, isn't a good adaption. The fact that the 2013 Berserk anime project wasn't just a sequel to the 1997 series becomes a bigger mistake with every day that passes. The movies and this series have some stuff that was cut from the show but don't carry the spirit of Berserk at all. It feels so hollow. I just hope they follow this up with something good (I.e. an adaption of the Black Swordsman arc). If not this will all have been a waste. |

The only really important things deleted were Skull Knight and his backstory. Not perfect, but it'd be pretty easy to adapt Skull Knight's first appearance as saving Guts and Casca, and the backstory could be reintroduced later with Falconia, but oh well... |
| perfect episode! Griffith will "stop at nothing" that was just classic! Victory for the Band of the Hawk!!! 5/5. |

Mariklyn said: who killed the captain assistant of the purple Rhinos (Eye-patch guy) Lord Gennon, obviously. We cut to him right after we see his head get removed. (Joking, of course, but for a split second that's what I was thinking) |
| As a 2022 seasonal TV anime episode, this episode was pretty good. The episode was one big battle from start to (almost) finish, and the studio really went all out, it felt suitably huge and brutal. I was impressed, especially after hearing a lot of criticisms of the movies, and I have to say CGI animation served the show pretty well here. The fights felt efficient and not showy, but they had a decent amount of choreography, which fit the characters and the tone of the show. The aftermath and the parade scenes also looked pretty striking and lavishly produced. As one episode within a season, it felt a little awkward; this episode continues the pattern of feeling like a section of a movie that the studio did their best to dress up as a TV episode. The characters don't do or say much to develop in this episode; it's almost all business. Some awkward cuts also had me wondering if they were sloppily re-edited (I can't be sure because I haven't seen the movies). A few disappointing changes were made from the manga. I did not see anything major that badly damages the story, though. The relationship between Gennon and Griffith was only implied, and I cannot remember whether the show already expanded (or will expand?) on that through Casca's recollections. It would help us understand and sympathize with the characters of Griffith and Casca more. Another change was Zodd's role in Guts' fight. By removing his intervention from the show, Zodd's motives were left unclear, and he became just a monster that Guts fought that one time. |
| Good episode! One of the coolest moments is when Guts cut down the horse and Boscogne's head. Things will become crazy after this episode!! Can't wait! |
| Sorry for my english xD! RIP Kentaro Miura :( RIP Akira Toriyama :(  |
| Man, lots of bad asses around here from griffin , Gutz to Casca....... |
| The fights were definitely delivered, loved Casca's moment especially but Guts was epic as well, not to mention that last killing scene with Griffith |

Based on the votes and comments, people obviously don't want Berserk 1997, D: Bloodlust or Ninja Scroll type of animation. They want Berserk 2016 all over again. To be fair, with better CGI. Basically, they want Trigun Stampede adaptation for Berserk. Even if Black Swordsman comes after this, you wanna guess how it would look? But, let' hope for the best. Hopefully nothing related to anime is announced. |
| What an intense battle. Guts vs. Boscogn duel in the middle of battlefield is always pleasant to watch. Homura24 said: the osts used this ep during the battle were great Agreed. They really made all action sequences even more entertaining. |
| They're getting quite the hero's welcome for taking that fortress down solo. A legendary squad indeed. |
 |
| Griffith not only strong but He have charisma that make people believe in him. |

Otherwise, very epic fights, especially Guts' and Casca's! I was looking at all those civilians glorifying their heroes and realized that they didn't understand Happiness, safety, or good life built on slaughter cannot possibly last. |
| "The me today will not ever make the future me to regret!" (Emily Adachi from Air Gear: Kuro no Hane to Nemuri no Mori - Break on the Sky)  |
| Such a good episode. At the end of the episode when Guts remembers what Griffith told him about making his own kingdom, now they're victorious and one step closer to that dream of his. |
| I was hoping to see Zodd helping Guts. The Memorial Edition didn't adapt that scene. |
