HOLY $HIZZNITS!!! I don't believe it!!! Well, I guess I can take back all that buzz about it never happening (based on various comments from other sources. This is excellent news.
I just hope that they can get OLM back to do the work. The same group that worked on 'Figure 17', and others. They did an excellent job. I'm curious to know if it will be a reboot or continuation. I don't know that rebooting work. Even with what was cut from the first series it was still a decent adaptation. That still stayed as close as it could. Keep us posted on this. I wonder when Miura is going to end the series. Is he going to end it soon or is he going to TRY and run it as long as Guin Saga, as stated in a past interview. |

I don't think it would be impossible to make a direct sequel to the TV series, as long as it starts with a flashback that retroactively establishes that spoiler[Guts had met Skullknight before the eclipse. Otherwise, the way he saves him from that ritual would look even more like a deus ex machina than it did in the manga.]
Then they could adapt the post-eclipse stuff from the first 3 volumes, this time including Puck. A second TV series could go all the way up to spoiler[Griffith's return] and end on a somewhat conclusive note, while leaving room for another sequel.

What awesome news on a Monday morning~~
I really hope it's a remake--do the whole thing from the start in fresh, updated animation. ::fingers crossed:: |

I think it will go the way FMA did.... remake the series from the start more in sync to the manga... and dont leave out any details!
I'm really excited about this... sooo excited... But... I have no other berserk fan around me to give a massive big hug to D: |

So THAT'S why a flying pig kicked me in the face this morning while yelling "I'll carve the symbol of sacrifice in you!".

In the manga, it's clear that spoiler[the Skull Knight is a part of a larger, pre-manga history with the Godhand], but yeah, most of that only becomes clear long after the ending point of the first anime, which would have made it a 100% deus ex machina.
In terms of chronology, the first three volumes take place after the "Golden Age" arc. You could start there, have flashbacks that spoiler[establish the Skull Knight during the Eclipse,] and then go on straight to the new material. The other material that was cut from the first series (spoiler[the Queen's affair with Julius, the King's perversion, and Wylad]) don't matter much to the rest of the story, but spoiler[the Skull Knight] needs to be slipped in their somewhere. It could be done, though. I haven't been a fan of the "more faithful" remakes, so I'd rather a straight sequel. To get to Serpico this time. Did I mention I like Serpico?

Regardless of whether those rumours are connected to this current news, those who were excited by the images now have something more concrete to liven their spirits. |

Awesome, it has been more than ten years since I first dreamt there would come a day a sequel would be announced. If it's not some lame joke, it's a pretty unbelievable news. And I really hope the new series takes right after the 26th episode of the original series (so around volume 13 of the manga if I remember correctly).

I have to admit, I'm excited by this.
Of course, I also want to hedge my bets - we don't know what kind of production this is going to be. It might be a remake, it might be a continuation from the end of the original TV series, it might be some OAV adaptation of a story arc of their choice, or it could be something totally different. It depends on how much of an audience they think exists for a Berserk anime. I think, if made well, and marketed well, it's the kind of title that would find fairly good success internationally, even if in Japan only the Berserk fans stayed up till 1 AM to catch the showing. As far as content broadcast, if they can get things like Queen's Blade and Seikon no Quasar onto television, I don't think the hurdles Berserk would have to jump would be unnecessarily high (though its issue would be one of violence and less of sexuality...though there's some of that too). But in the interest of not overthinking something I know nothing about, I'm just going to lean back in my chair and pump my fist in victory. |
