| Having watched the original series, I can say that this had better visuals and better soundtrack choices. I have a feeling that I'll enjoy this trilogy a little more than the original coz I already know most of what's in store albeit it'll be presented in a more polished way. Idk if that's just me but oh well. Casca was definitely more likable here. I can't believe that she managed to be okay even in her debut rather than in the later parts lol. Griffith's hot af too xD Adonis' death was prolonged and more shocking here too. He shouldn't have gone out that way... |

| Meh. Why watch the movie recap when you can watch the series and get something so much better? I think they did a good job recapping though. I just wish they would have chosen one animation style and stuck with it. It was quite inconsistent. And then they had good moments with the 3D animation, but then the animation would just stop abruptly. Like, come on, mate! Follow it all the way through! One example was some guy running down a roof-- they had him leaning back and everything, but then once he got to the end of the roof, he kinda just stopped. Maybe leaned over a little. Like no stumble, no adjusting to the newer ground... it was just like if there was no end of the roof. It looked bad even though everything before the guy's animation cycle was up was good. A little upsetting. Like I said before though, it was a good recap. |
| No Akira Ishida !! Also the voice for Guts sounds a bit weak. (musics on the other hand are equally good and bad trades if you compare to the first animated adaptation) First, the obvious: the visuals. The gap between the 3DCGI animation and digital 2D was terrible. Had it been used only for the masses in battlefield scenes, it would have been understandable (although it looks even worse than Hollywood computer generated masses). During action scenes, it helps some battle choreographies too, but jumping from 2D close-ups to 3D away moves in seconds doesn't help to make things look good. They even used it for simple walking and some other movements, those scenes being made of the same jumps between 2D close-ups and 3D shots. Also, the use of 3DCG for soldiers in closeups where every other character is drawn is very ugly. All this while the backgrounds are quite pretty and the characters all finely drawn when they're allowed to live in 2D. As for the story, it did a good job at condensing those chapters in a way it was not hindering the understanding of the events. Narrowing down Berserk to three characters was essential for the trilogy and seems for now a good choice. The implementation of Gut's past was made with subtlety without losing time on it. Too bad it was marred by a terribly build ensemble: every big "act" looks like it was simply pasted to the previous one without any binder to make the movie fluid. Enjoyment: 2/5 I was far too annoyed by the extensive use of 3DCGI to be able to enjoy the movie as it deserved. Score : 5/10 |

| Honestly, based on what I've heard, I was expecting a bad movie, but it was really good. Obviously, based on what they have adapted, some parts are missing but the parts that were necessary to adapt, there are. CGI was ugly in some places, less ugly in others, but also ok in other places. However, although there is no comparison with the manga, it was spectacular to see, probably it's because I love Berserk but it was so. As soon as I can I look at the other two. |

| Amazing! I haven't watched Berserk since last 2019 december and this feels fresh~ |
 |
| After watching the 1997 adaptation and rehearing Zodd’s advise to Guts when this man’s ambitions collapse you will face a death you cannot escape and his words make more sense or have more meaning now that I know everything |
 |
| Character arts and visuals are much better than 1997 anime. Only problem is fast pacing, a lot of important parts in manga are not here. |
| Pretty fun movie to watch, but it felt to be too short. Its length affected greatly the amount of important scenes from the manga that got omitted. Action scenes looked good in most of times. I liked how CGI was used in this movie. |
