I've been reading the Golden Age arc in the manga, and would like to see it animated. Is this a good adaption of the Golden age Arc in Berserk ? or does it make a lot of changes, i've seen people say to anime fans that the manga is better

Should i watch this, or the movie trilogy of the Golden Age.

They're both fine adaptations. Movies are CG-heavy if you don't like that stuff. I say just watch both. They make minor changes, mostly omissions. Like Wyald. '97 skips Skull Knight, probably because he isn't relevant much until after GA. Movie has him. If you're going to keep reading anyway, it doesn't matter.

Watch this series since it is superior to the movies in every way. The running time of the series is around 625 minutes and the combined running time for the movies is 266 minutes. This pretty much says everything.

But yeah, the manga is of course better than the anime.

The orig 90s show is the only good thing about Berserk, minus some spectacular scenery in the manga.

i just finished the golden age arc in the manga. Berserk is now my favourite manga, the quality compared to the other manga i like was really surprising. So i think i should watch the 1990s anime now. the golden age in the manga has been so amazing, i really want to see it in animated form.

I don't mind if they leave out a few things, like you said im going to keep reading the manga so it doesnt matter, as long as what they do adapt is adapted well. i just finished the golden age arc in the manga so im excited to watch the anime. I think i'll watch this one before the movies.

Berserk 1997 has a killer soundtrack, it has solid directing and impressive voice acting. Though the animation is limited, the art is consistent and it keeps the feel of the manga in my opinion. Even with some things glossed over or changed around, it still leaves the viewer with a fantastic experience, so yes, Berserk 1997 is a great anime.

The movie trilogy you could watch, but definitely, don't watch it before you watch the anime. The first two movies are shit, but the third is very good. And I suppose if you could stomach it, (I honestly don't recommend it but) you could watch Berserk 2k16 and 17 (but still that should be left purely for research purposes). The first two movies and the 2016/ 2017 anime have similar problems: they rush over shit and have appalling animation mixed in with some good clips (only 2016 and 17 are inarguably worse). If you want to avoid them, then do so.

Not a good adaptation,but still a good anime.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron
