I was sooo looking forward to this review, awesome job as always. If you want to watch the anime I would say to watch the 3 movies as it has key characters in it that the 90's anime didn't have. Sure they change a few things but overall it's not a huge difference, just well paced. I still watch the 90's anime though it's pretty tight af!! Also I believe its going to be the 5th omnibus that is going to contain the eclipse, which is vol 13 of the manga. Both the anime and movies end around there, and afterwards it's a new arc. And if you want to read something just as badass as berserk check out vagabond it has 12 omnies and also vinland saga that has 10 omnies. Vagabond is about musashi miyamoto and vinland saga is about vikings. You gotta check em out!!! Ps. Vagabond has dope spine art!

There's a short novel about this Grunbeld character who doesn't even appear until like volume 22 and I don't even remember him, but the book itself isn't really that good, but it doesn't take that long either. You're not past the Golden Age, it's just that the numbering of the issues in the beginning of this series is all weird and doesn't make any sense. Anyway, yeah, the anime movies cover the golden age and so does the 1997 series, though the 97 series is more thorough. The real end of the Golden Age arc is in the middle of volume 13, which will be in the 4th deluxe edition, which won't come out until sometime next year, no idea when. The 2016-2017 series covers the stuff after the Golden Age arc, but then again most people hate those series too so eh, whatever. I watched the 97 series before reading Berserk and that's what got me into the manga, so it's up to you if you want to watch the anime adaptations or not, but the manga is still way better than all of them.

1:35 "Not to be confused with Childish Gambino". That was funny and interesting because somewhere in the Golden Age Arc, I think it was (1) or (2), but one of the Mercenaries commented saying, "That was pretty Childish of you Gambino". Because Gambino took the sword training too far with Guts and got mad at Guts for landing a strike on his cheek. He then slashed Guts on his nose and left a very deep wound. Gambino got them anger issues!

The Anime and Movies cover up to about Vol12-13 somewhere around there. So realistically if youre trying to read it first you'll have to wait til about Berserk Deluxe Vol4. My 2 Cents, Ive watch all the anime and movies. I'd say check out the 97 Anime which is is right here KZitem, or the 3 Movies which covers the same arcs but with updated animation. The Berserk anime that came out recently takes place beyond those which sounds cool, but falls flat due to the animation. Very irritating as a Berserk Fan.

Hey Gem, Claymore is a really good manga. Some people call it, "Berserk Lite". And that nickname is justified. It is very similar to Berserk in many ways. Medieval setting, lots of gore blood and violence, horror, suspense, action, darkness, etc. The first volume is the worst out of all the volumes but it picks up and gets better. The art also improves as the story progresses. Just like Berserk. Many people argue that Berserk has a better story but Claymore wins in the art department. I haven't read Claymore yet, but I have finished the Anime. And I watched many Claymore manga reviews. The Berserk manga is a lot better than the 1997 Anime. Probably because manga doesn't have any limitations like Anime does. The author is able to tell their story the way they want to. Not limited to 26 or whatever episodes. And, no having to censor or leave out anything. I can for sure bet that the Claymore manga is even better than the Anime. And that is saying a lot since the Claymore Anime was really good. Same thing with the 1997 Berserk Anime. It was so good, but the manga is even better. Other than the Claymore manga, Monster and Vagabond sound promising. And you already know that Berserk is godlike. A masterpiece. Anyway, love your BERSERK Deluxe Edition Reviews!!! Always a pleasure watching them.
