Should I watch Berserk sub or dub? I usually watch whatever version is better which is almost everything in sub except Cowboy Bebop, Baccano!, DBZ and childhood animes.

personally, i looked hard into which i would like better for this anime because i heard both were good. I found that the sub was much better for my tastes, but that is just my opinion.

Actually, the dub is alright for Berserk but the sub is still better. There's just something about Casca calling Guts a "baka" in that slow smooth voice.

I'm biased toward the dub anyway, but there is one technical case to be made for the dub: the Berserk movies have different seiyuus than the 90s series in the sub version but the dub keeps the voice actors the same across both anime adaptations. If you have an issue with changing voice actors for the same characters, then you should watch the dub.

Both dubs are pretty damn good.

I disagree. Watch the anime first and if you love it, read the manga. Then again, some people (who I like to say have good taste) loved the anime so much they didn't want to touch the manga due to the perfect ending of the anime.

Perfect ending of the anime... I have no words. Still, I do agree that you should just watch the anime and then read everything including all of the Golden Age arc. Berserk is just too good to not be experienced to its fullest (even though the movies are a travesty).

I guess thats one way of describing the ending...one really messed up way of looking at.

Dub!
Guts and Griffiths's English voice actors totally make it worth a listen!

I actually prefer it dubbed, even if it is fairly cheesy at times. Listening to characters speak in Japanese takes away from the immersion of being in Medieval Europe.
And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible.

I totally agree with SteampunkDalek.
Guts and Griffith's English voices are really worth listening. Griffith's has some "strangeness" to it which really fits the characters, while Guts' is so deep and masculine.

Dub. English Gut's voice sounds much more rough and masculine. It fits his physical proportions more than JP Guts, who sounds less rough, younger, and less masculine.
