If Shin Itagaki is anywhere near this series I won't touch it with a ten foot pike.

I don't think, anyone will pull another HxH 2011 besides HxH 2011 itself in the next decades. I hope so, but i truly don't think it's highly likely. If so, then MADHOUSE is imo the only studio who could pull that, maybe Production I.G.

@ Topic

No idea, what to think about this. I planned on watching the first season (Berserk 2016), but i didn't do it yet. I almost only found negative reactions to this, so i might just drop that idea.

Compared to what they did to the story, the CGI wasnt even that bad (it was but yeh). This is basically a tease. All it does is make me want a proper 2D adaptation. Hopefully one day, some studio decides to pull a HxH 2011 on this and creates the best anime of all time...

Mozgus did look pretty nice CGI'd though. I have a slither of hope that the Berserker armour will have some merit.

But... where are the second seasons that I actually wanted?

Just let it die. Cancel it and make a sequel to the 1997 anime instead!

lol, how did that happen? I'm guessing I'm getting to old for this shit..

Moreover the CGI is the least of the problems I have with this "adaption".

(SAO 3 on my way looking for a moment with my dear answer if you found the reference)

I feel like I'm always in the minority..... But this anime is good! Don't be afraid to watch this anime.

Why!?! Just.....why....There sure is something wrong with the people making it...

This is proof name recognition carries more weight than quality and consumer feedback. In the anime world, anyway

I seriously dont understand how all of the shows that should be getting a new season get shafted and average at best adaptations like this get one right after the other.

I think the animation suits Berserk, it's just some of the sound effects and effort put into it. Lookinh foward for it and I will continue ignoring these people who say its shit.

Berserk doesn't sell close to 1 million per volume. Hm... Maybe it did in its early stage but then the sales slowly drop? Currently berserk sells like over 100k per volume.

Maybe circulation numbers?
Circulation numbers were about 1 million per volume in 2013 33.5million for 37 volume
(25million in Japan and 8.5million for international)

First several volume may well above 1.5million circulation copies.

nobody asked for this.

I wish the studio that would do Berserk could be the one that's doing that wonderfully animated Chinese Cartoon about MOBAs.
