It seems that Berserk is kind popular around here I was decided to watch the first episode this week, need my regular dose of blood, violence and of course boobs and since the old version of 1998 had all of this it was supposed to be my third favorite Anime from this season until another Anime took my complete attention, am talking about Taboo Tattoo saw the second episode this morning and it sure packs a punch, a lot of blood, good and intense fights, more blood and of course some Plot in moderate quantities, don't believe me ? ;D

Alright, you should watch episode 2. That battle scene w/ farnese and the guards has a lack of blood or damage w/ Guts, especially since they skip a previous battle, and it completely screws up the importance of the end result.
I'm still gonna check out episode 3 when it airs on friday.

I wouldn't say there was a lack of blood or damage, like 6 guys are chopped in half with one blow and just explode into a geyser of blood and parts. That is kinda mostly it other than all the guys he smashes up, but I thought that worked fine for what they were trying to get across. It seems like those that don't know the manga will be able to get more entertainment out of this, like me, than someone expecting a specific plot to be followed after having read over a 100 chapters of the manga. It's probably why I'll stick with the show for the season at least.

I was talking about Guts himself. It just didn't look like he was too damaged, but he gets that little sword nick in his neck, and passes out. Whereas in the original story, it was the last straw for him since his endurance was pretty low and was badly injured since he'd been fighting demons and armies of fairies the previous night ( lost children arc).
You're defenitely right about that the show will good more entertainment for non- manga readers, and that's good for them to broaden their audience. It just that most of my friends and I were pretty dissapointed since we wanted a straight adaptation.

Not to knock ya or anything, maybe you weren't paying attention too much to it, but Guts very clearly states he can barely feel his limbs when fighting the main knight, his right arm erupts with blood from a wound as he flexes his bicep to use his sword to hack the guys in half after taking the arrow bolt to the leg that sets him off, and then as he launched himself at the girl leader, a large log was chucked at his gushing leg wound, which I think was the real cause of him going down, not the stab to the neck with the sword itself, though it clearly jabbed into his neck muscle a good couple inches. I think that green guy chasing after Guts at the end of the episode was the one who threw the log quickly perhaps, since there's something sneaky about him.
It's clear they are hurrying things abit, but I thought it was pretty noticeable in that fight that he was pretty worn out, since he wasn't using his sword too often in the battle other than a few outbursts because he just can't fully use it in his current state.

Oh crap, totally forgot about the log stab w/ serpico. I completely missed that detail due to not paying attention. But he is supposed to be pretty damaged from his fight against the huge fairy from the previous arc. I just remembered that Guts looked way more damaged, with blood everywhere, and it didn't really seem like it was there as much in the anime to me.
I wonder if they're gonna keep the horse scene in the next episode. This whole arc has some pretty nasty monsters, so I'm still hoping that the cg animation doesn't look too bad, especially for the goat demon.

He does look more damaged in the Manga, just checked to make sure. I'm also wondering how they're going to take on all the heavy stuff that's coming the farther we get in the conviction arc.
