Seems like Studio Millipensee is getting the hang of working with CG with the shaky animation quality finally stabilising this episode. That Ep 3 horse was a nightmare. Good job.

(Now all we need is a traditional, hand-drawn season 2...)

Guts charging through the cave was actually pretty hype.

Nice to see those two finally reuniting.


Even thought this new series has been a completely awful trainwreck, this episode has started to make me regain a bit of hope. Slightly better CG and that ending scene was perfectly adapted from the Manga.

To bad they censored the dismembered body's behind Guts. thats what i really like about the manga that contrast, gives it way more feeling.

Still i think this adaptation is not all that bad, they are slowly getting better at showing off the right atmosphere. And the Puck and Ishidoro comic relief is put in to place pretty well. And well the 3D-ish CGI is not my cup of thee, but hey! Atleast they are improving along the way!

Overall i actually liked the episode.

Another week, another group of people complaining that the anime sucks but they keep watching and keep posting in the discussion thread, guess some people are masochist or they just generally lead a sad life, interesting

10/10 episode with guts entrance, definitely the best episode by far


True, some people seem to hate the series, yet they keep watching and complaining. That is indeed interesting. But you just flat out insulted them.

I thought yout were obviously trolling and wanted to ignore you. But then I saw your anime list:

You completed 106 animes, gave 71 of them a perfect score of 10, and you have never dropped a single series. Also, you have never watched an adaptation of a manga, after you have read it.

So no, you were not trolling, you just cant relate. I think you shouldnt be so judgemental, if you literally dont know what youre talking about.

If anyone leads a sad life, then its me, because this post took me about half an hour..


lol, well I applaud your smack talkin' effort post.

I like that the orgy stuff in the last episode with how it set the tone for this episode and managed to be creepy and scary without being too over the top graphic. It captured the essence of a bunch of naked creepy cultists pretty well I thought. Once the goat takes form and people start dying... just felt right at that point.

This was a really fun episode. Ishidoro and Puck are fun together and the build up to Guts making the save was awesome. RUN RUN RUN! Oh god, oh god! RUUUUN!!

Looking back, I think every episode where Guts swings his sword and blood and body parts go flying, that's an episodes I REALLY liked. I don't care that the story is rushed or some plot points are taken out/glossed over. Bah! If I wanted details, I'd reread the manga. Just gimme that sweet sweet action!
I don't need no instructions to know how to rock!

I also enjoyed all the fighting so far. Especially that soud effect, when the sword rips through the enemies.

Puck is insanely cute in this entire anime series.

As for the best part of the episode, it would definitely be the last 30 seconds of Guts entrance. Im glad they made his fighting most stylish and sped up the way he swung that sword. Its more shonen, but it works for Guts. Better than that 20 fps stuff

The only gripe with the episode is mainly the camera. There are so many pointles awkward panning shots. Gave me a headache afterawhile.

That initial Guts x Casca reunion was conveniently cockblocked by the town bleeder, Nina.

Also, Casca's always getting raped. :( She's like the resident rape victim.

it got amazing, visuals, camera, atmosphere all better now.
Weird pop/techno music was ok, Ishidoro parts were funny becoming useful & he has guts.

Anime is improving over time, imo, or maybe I'm just getting used to it.

Can't compare with the manga, of course.

Bwhahaha, had a good laugh out of this, thanks. While I think the adaptation leaves a lot to be desired, it's still watchable. This episode was much better than the last one, fairly decent.

Isidro was very expressive this episode, which was great to see. Puck also contributed healing that girl and bringing Guts to the gathering.

Guts with that Batman like entrance. The build up to the end was well done.

Great episode yet again! I'm loving the series. Everytime Guts enters the scene, it puts a smile on my face. I also find the comic relief with Isidoro quite amusing. The way they animated him when he started sneaking after the cultisit, the way he was shivering on that zombie he jumped on, ... But he also has honor. All good!

Lol, those dumb knights really were gonna blame that on drugs?! Haha. I wonder what Farnese will do once she sees Guts again. If she can do anything at all. I thought that Guts would be too late and the knights would be gone with Casca when he got there. But now I'm wondering what's going to happen.

Also Casca really can't get a break, can she? I wonder what her mental state is like? Is she just (to quote Tropical Thunder) "gone full retard"? Or can she still think clearly at times? I wonder...

People that think Berserk 2016 is a shit show, don't know what they are missing.
