The 2016 anime series Berserk is well-known – and unfortunately, often criticized – within the anime community. It attempted to adapt story arcs from the manga that hadn’t been animated before, following the events of the Golden Age Arc, but only lasted for two seasons before moving away from the Band of the Hawk storyline. Many fans believe Berserk is long overdue for a reboot that truly captures the quality of the original manga. A major point of contention was the decision to use mostly computer-generated animation, as well as some questionable choices in how key scenes were presented. These two seasons contain important events and battles that deserve a fresh adaptation, especially now that the Golden Age Arc has already been covered by the classic 90s anime and the movie trilogy. Guts’ story deserves to be told for a new audience.
