original berserk manga online golden age arc 1

Why they switched to the abhorrent 3D in the 2016 series I am not sure, considering how Arc II is so professional and looks great This animation style, in this movie, is top-notch, and if they kept things like this I'd say this is the Best of 2D/3D mixing up to now. This film is Precisely how the 2016 anime Should have been. Again, only the lazy writing, probably a problem with translations and scripting from Japan (original version), is noticeable however, the writing is never Bad to be sure. The battles are also Excellent, and even though it skips the arrow-in-the-hand scene from the series, the cinematography is Fantastic. It slows down and lets things sit, and brings out lighter sides of characters such as Casca while dancing rather than always being harsh and stern, rarely seen in the series. You should read my first-Arc review for more specifics, but the scenes don't feel rushed nor breezed over. However, other than this, it fixes many problems of the 1st film and puts a Lot of weight on the important parts, cuts out some of the 'filler' from the series, and covers them with class and refinement. for example, Griffith says in the 1997 series 'war stories, Barbarous as they are, would only Bore ladies such as yourselves.' And in this movie he says: 'tales of battle are barbaric, and you are so refined I am sure they would only bore you.' The tone changes significantly from the series and the movies, and the 1997 series is just superior with its' writing.

The writing leaves no room for awe or interpretation, and basically tells you straight, which is a shame. Just like Arc 1, the writing is straightforward.
