Mixed Feelings
In its genre, Boushoku no Berserk is a typical show. This show starts pretty exciting, but as time goes on, the degree of excitement drops. It's pretty obvious that Fate, the main protagonist, lacks a clear goal and is simply a follower of whatever happens. He is a typical Shonen protagonist, which isn't bad but also not very interesting. I find his partner Greed to be more interesting; he's also quite humorous. Although this season hasn't really gone into great detail, the concept of the Deadly Sins as abilities and weapons was intriguing in this show. I would have loved to see more interactions between Fate and Roxy though; they hardly spoke throughout the whole thing and I'm still confused by the power scaling on this show.

Although there was a pretty cool touch in the early episodes of the show where everything turns black when Fate starts harvesting the "food" he needs, the animation is generally stiff and sloppy. Aside from the Dragons, there are other rather intriguing monsters in the series.

The soundtrack is likewise fairly standard; nothing particularly noteworthy there either.

In general, I continue to be confused about the intended course of this show. While not outstanding, the show wasn't the worst this season either. I liked the show, but it wasn't great enough for me to consider rewatching it again. However, I would still watch it if a new season was released.
