VIDEO: New TV Spots for Berserk Movie
Epic medieval warfare and bittersweet romance in theatrical Berserk
A pair of trailers have shown up for the upcoming Berserk: Golden Age I - Egg of the King movie--and the 36th volume of the manga. Original author Kentaro Miura is known for his epic battle sequences, his love of iDolmaster and procrastination, and his offbeat sense of humor, which gets to shine in this pair of TV spots.
So do we have any Berserk fans here? From what they've shown, they're going pretty far in this first movie... so what does that leave for the second movie? Two and a half hours of just the Eclipse? Let's hope not.

You realize that this is one of or IS the longest going written manga in existance?
The writer is STILL writing new manga for this. They could literally make movies
after movies after movies that would be 2 hours apiece and still exceed the amount
of episodes they made for the short season anime. LoL

The thing is that he's still kind of right. For what we receive here, Berserk is insanely long. The only series that come close are the big shounen series--here's a list.

Many of these series have very little chance of making it to the US, which is a shame. I'd pay money for 3-in-1s of Hajime no Ippo, Golgo 13, or JoJo.

Berserk definitely isn't Shounen.

What I actually meant by that was that the only series to come close to the length of Berserk (or in their case, surpass it) are the big shounen titles that always do well no matter what.
Despite having very horrible "welcome to the real world" lessons for its readers, Berserk is definitely not something kids should read.

from what i understand the anime did not follow the manga well so their doing these first three movies as a brotherhood type of thing. and from what i heard they plan too make more movies that cover the further arcs though im not sure if its true or not. anyway from the trailers this movie looks pretty dang good so i look foreward in seeing it.

Well the TV is kinda long but covers just the "intro" of these amazing series.
Maybe they wanna make it more compact so the mainstream audience wont get disappointed watching the series.
Just like Death&Rebirth (NGE) wich i dont like really.
Well, plus they wanna make money and use their CG trash ;-)
PS: Berserk = Best Manga evar IMHO

Epic. I never knew of this Berserk manga or anime. I'm gonna watch it and then this movie.

I implore you to read more.. really.
If you did; you would know it isn't a "remaster" its just a movie.. new.. animated fresh.. from scratch.

I agree with them needing to do more for Berserk.
Although this remastered movie is welcome...id much rather they started producing more anime seasons.

Awesome. Lets hope the second movie actually goes past the eclipse and shows some of the story that has never been animated before.
I don't get the "tv series didn't follow the manga" comments though. Yes it left certain things out like Puck but his presence and those other changes were minor at best for the purposes of the golden age story. The TV series definitely captured the actual story and was loyal to it on all the parts that counted.

well, I love berserk. can't wait to see it. Hopefully they've done it justice with this animation. but I'm going to assume you have never seen the manga.. as the last couple sentences are rather ignorant. there's hundreds of chapters AFTER the eclipse... which are WAY better than everything before it.
I am ready.

I am looking forward to this so much! I am not looking forward to how freaking long it takes for new berserk manga to come out though! Also the latest storyline in the manga kinda sucks.....I hope Puck is in the movies somewhere, because puck is great! He adds comedic relief, especially with ishidoro!
