User Reviews
Compelling characters with a tragic ending, that cannot be predicted. It was genius.
Treads water until the last 5 episodes or so, then it gets depressing, it’s a vibe but I’m genuinely unsure if I needed to see this
Incredible story, voice acting, and art style. A true classic
Perhaps the greatest protagonist-villain duo in the history of media.
My favorite piece of art in the whole wide world. Of course, read the manga and don't watch anything that is not the 97 anime. Stop hiatus!
While the animation leaves something to be desired, the amazing characters and storytelling from the source material make this a must watch
90s Berserk leaves a sense of nostalgia with you through its beautiful world building and story telling. It is deep and gruesome, a classic.
Incredibly well written, some of the most enjoyable characters I’ve seen
The best adaptation. Still doesn’t do it justice. You gotta read it.
The storytelling is wonderful. I wish all manga would be made into anime.
