| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another appearance by the awesome Skull Knight. Nice. After Guts' epic battle, he and his crew seems to be ready for more. Still can't stand the CGI though during the fights, just too distracing. The black armor Guts theme song is pretty dope. Prepared for a big battle for the finale. |

| Good episode. Schierke crying was really sad, as strong as she is, she's still a little girl. :( Skull Knight shows up and pretty interesting conversation between him and Guts. Schierke being teased was funny, Puck doesn't know anything about his own land. xD Action was decent, poor crocodiles being controlled. :( Guts vs Kyogre Sea monster was cool, the berserk armor eats away at Gut's ability to reason until all that is left is rage. If it weren't for Schierke pulling away the armor, Guts probably would've murdered anything he saw in cold blood. Guess this is just gonna stop at the beginning of the arc. |
 |
| I love the Skelethon Knight, always appears is to give a clue o tell something important!!! Nice episode, with a little action, some laughs and tears and advance is this story with a uncertain end!!! ;) |
| He lost control for a moment. |
 |
| Oh god, the CGI during the battle at the end was horrendous.... The battle was nice and all, but damn, that was just distracting. |
  |
| The Skull Knight warning Guts that healing Casca may not be what she wants. Guts killing those alligator monsters. Berserker Armor taking over again. Glad Schierke made it in time. |

| Always cool to have more Skull Knight. Not sure why they cut out the kid... The scenes with the berserker armour and Guts attempting to control it was cool. |
 |
| Um there's a certain important person missing from the beach scene... I really hope they aren't thinking about making a season 3, no matter how much I love Berserk this is getting kind of painful to watch this lol Does anyone know why Studio 4°C only does movies and OVA? |

| Guts x Shierke I ship em the moment Shierke was introduced |
| Probably one of the best episodes of this season! The plot continues to develop and we are starting to get a sense of the scope of the story. Gut's will be faced with the demon within the armor and within himself. The crew of characters are growing more and more each episode and we are seeing their teamwork reach new heights. Gut's in the Berserker Armor is a sight to behold and I can't wait to see how they finish the season. The story is approaching some of the best parts of the manga and I anticipate the next season could be an even better improvement than this season was over 2016! |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| RIP elephant sea monster. ...We will meet again (; hopefully next season. |
| Lie until what you want to be true becomes truth. Lie until you can't remember what's a lie and what isn't. Lie until you aren't lying anymore! Figures  |
| Definitely one of the best episodes of the season, that's for sure. Not surprised that Guts lost control again, but the way that was presented this time was executed far better than the last time he lost control. |
| just realized next ep is the last please tell me another season is already planned!! thought this was more than 12 eps but seeing the info on here only 12 eps am sad about it |
| "one step at a time" |
| Somehow they managed cram 6.5 manga chapters into this one and the pacing doesn't feel rushed, at all. Despite how pitiful the animation is, at least the storyboard is moving on the right track. My speculation for the next episode 1 more episode left! Well... I am still glad we have an adaptation that went this far with the manga. |
 |
| Damn the look of guts after overcoming the berserker suite made me feel so rugged. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Sigh... I thought I had gotten used to the CGI, but lo and behold they managed to prove me wrong. 'cus good god the fight scene with Makara was so bad, it made me feel sick. Like come on atleast pretend that you're putting effort into this. Not to mention the fact that so many events/characters seem to be getting axed again. |
| Oh god, they skipped moonboy and one of my favorite moments in Berserk. These last 2 episodes has been really weird imo, idk why they put more effort into the 2D animation but much less effort into the CGI. It was nice to see more of berserker armor and skull knight, at least. |
| Really...with so many times to show the credits they show it in the worst time!!! |
 |
| Guts still can't fully control the Berserker Armor mode! well that was fast, fairy land and fairy king was already mentioned... 5/5. |
 |
| I liked this arc better than the previous arc with the priests. |

| In the next episode, will they arrive to the Elf kingdom? :/ |
| Whoa. Whoa. WHOA. Did they seriously skip the Moonlight child? That's, um, you know, kind of important? I wonder why they removed him? Extremely odd decision. Regardless of the CGI, the series has been pretty faithful to the manga. But now when they do this? Uhhh... |

| Yep Guts got messed up yet again. This armor is going to kill him. |
 |
| Pretty impressive episode, really looking forwards to the last episode. |
 |
| Aw man just when Guts was on the right path to healing. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Just one more left.. Also, Guts with his little white fringe, YESSSS. |
| Schierke opening up her pent-up feelings of grief towards Flora's loss to Guts was a very emotional moment and it also happened to awaken her preference for men...who are way, way older than she is. It's absolutely adorable and how she vowed to help Guts tame the Berserker Armor was cool. They've all dispatched the Kushan crocodiles and Guts had successfully defeated the dreaded Pishaca but it was a really close call for everyone else in the party because the Berserker Armor chooses no target. It would've been better if they had shown Serpico's subtle displeasure towards Guts endangering the lives of everyone else until the last second. |
 |
| Ah there it is, the explicit hope of Casca's recovery, and the concrete despair of Guts losing himself once more, we're definitely beyond traditional revenge. So many possible post-recovery outcomes though, not sure how that would have panned out... I guess Farnese becoming an apprentice makes sense, typically in a party she would be the cleric, and since Guts turned down her tutoring demand... |
 |
| The armor took control and i was also wondering why Griffith would attack the old lady and it makes sense why he would |

| Ehh, too bad that one element got completely omitted and was left unadapted. Nice fight against crocodiles. On the other hand, Guts vs. Sea Monster fight looked mediocre at best. Too chaotic and with sword's swings that felt like they weren't swung by a sword at all. One episode to go. |
