**This review contains movie and manga spoilers**
This is pretty much a review of the movie trilogy.
I haven't finished the Berserk manga yet, and let it be known that I absolutely love it. At the moment of writing this review, I'm at chapter 228. I can't help but compare these movies to the manga, which I hold at the highest standard.
Now onwards to the movies review.
Story:
The Golden Age arc was great in the manga, and I feel like these three movies do it a certain justice, even if they do cut out what I consider to be very important parts of the story (I'll get

Mononoke Hime

It's hard to find words for a movie that made me feel such powerful emotions.
I'm pretty aware that because I've watched this movie when I was a little kid, that the nostalgia value is high to me. But when you're a kid, the plot doesn't make sense and everything seems 10 times more magical and surreal. That was also the case for me when watching Spirited Away.

This manwa is pretty cute and enjoyable. The art is soft and pretty, the characters (although not as developed as I would like) are interesting and complement each other quite nicely. The comedy is also very well executed, I was laughing my ass off quite a few times.

The things I liked less were certain story inconsistencies, and possibly the main character's approach at the beginning. But in the end I really enjoyed the contrasting personalities of both girls, and I liked watching them interact. Would recommend! |
