Berserk

Also, who fucking thought adding comic relief to Berserk was a good fucking thing?

Berserk has always had comic relief you fucking ingrate

>>143615631
I was just about to get into this series until I saw this awful CG in the new movies.

>>143615682
>Also, who fucking thought adding comic relief to Berserk was a good fucking thing
Miura. Like it or not.

Is Berserk the best example of "read the manga"?

>>143615807

flower of death or whatever it called.

What art style? it changes every few seconds

>>143615682
Miura

He said himself he added puck as without him he would be to depressed to continue writing it

>>143616446
To be honest, rotoscoping would look better than this CG.

>>143615631
WHAT THE FUCK

>>143615631
Okay, wow. Fucking wow.

You have no goddamn excuse, CGI's biggest strength is it's ease of fluidity of motion, allowing for greater movement and physical expression when someone is talking, and due to not needing to redraw frames it should allow for a complete lack of still lipflap moments.

There is no goddamn excuse when fucking VEGGIE TALES knows this and you somehow don't, he's not a goddamn robot.

>>143617536
Mostly because volume was was full of MURDER DEATH KILL RAGE DESTRUCTION and puck didnt do all too much, then they went right to Golden Age arc and he was forgotten.

Miura himself did, and he added more comic relief character's as time went on.

Guts basically has a circus following him around right now.

Don't worry anon, it's only the first episode. Plenty of time to meet your abysmal expectations.

>>143616336
Not him but if the whole thing was a comedy, then it wouldn't be comedic RELIEF. Its there to lighten the mood after all the dark, tense, gorey parts because otherwise it'd just be edgy try hard shit

This new series actually has far LESS comic relief then in the manga. Which borderline makes it even worse imo

>>143618903
They don't have motion capture in Japan. So all they can do is hand-animate in CG.

I found that when you sit down and watch an entire episode it isn't quite as bad as watching a 5 second webm on /a/. It still sucks, but at least were getting some of the post-eclipse content animated.

>>143622500

We should have been getting post eclipse content 15 fucking years ago, when the industry actually had a budget for real animation and not this filter abusing, 10 fps, robotic bullshit.

>/a/ says it's shit

what the fuck were they thinking?

>>143619000
>and he was forgotten.
He's in like every panel

>>143619000
What volume? Nearly every volume has comic relief when there's Puck. Only exception would be the Past Arc.

>>143622913
I think he means the initial intro segment before the golden arc.

I still don't understand why they can't seem to make a good Berserk anime, though I guess I should just give up and accept that the 90s anime is the best thing we're gonna get.

Puck is a stupid and useless character and you know it.
The original anime was right in cutting him out completely.

>>143615631
They were already dead inside at this point. The skeletons only served to free them from their vessels.

>>143624052
>useless character
But he is the best spy you can get.

>>143624052
He's the original "Berserker armor" in that his fairy dust is literally the only thing holding Guts together in the Black Swordsman arc

>>143624153
He also has an important role in the narrative of making it not all bleak and dark.
It gives some context and also someone you can relate more easily to then Guts.

>>143624215
I know that but it always feels so out of place. You cant tell how Miura just shoehorned him in. It takes me out of the atmosphere of the series whenever his naked ass comes on screen.

>>143624052
> The original anime was right in cutting him out completely.
Newfag detected. Im guessing you got all your Berserk info from that IGN review

Berserk takes place in a medieval fantasy world where fairies exist.
Puck is a useful and important (albeit small) asset to the narrative and a central character, whether you like him or not.

The only crime Miura has done is he stopped drawing him as a character and now makes him only a blob and nothing else.

Because it is an animated medium, if the animation is bad it is a problem.
It would be like asking why people were mad if they went to a poorly filmed movie that didn't have good camera men, editing, or a director that knew what they were doing.
Without going into the host of other issues.

>>143624638
But the episode was really good, they have bad parts but there isn't like Dragon Ball Super Animation. When the animations is really thanks to Toei. But this CGI was fucking fantastic, the rape escene was top tier.

If the OP is any indication of the quality of the series in general, I might just have to avoid watching it entirely. I didn't mind the Berserk movies where only heavy action scenes with armies were done like that, but if they're going to put horrible looking shit like OP in there for no reason, I don't want to have to deal with it.

I'll be on the ride until it ends, no reason to stop now after all the sailing. I honestly can't wait for the Budget Saving episode, it's going to put ReBoot s1 on a pedestal.

I still haven't bothered to watch it but didn't the Ace Attorney anime start off with loads of shit animation for the first couple episodes but end up looking fine after a bit?

There's always a possibility they redeem themselves in the same way. I doubt it though.

Atleast they mashed together all real manga moments together in a somewhat sensible way to explain why he gets captured (even though he's barely hurt)

A reminder that Deathtic 4 is how Studio 4°C wanted 3D Berserk to be.

It appears that you have to spend the same (or bigger) amount of work to make “cheaper” 3D look as interesting as 2D.

>>143626699
Nope, it's shitty. The only way I was able to get through it was because I watched it while airing, so the low frequency of one episode a week make it slightly more bearable. Even then, it was by far the worst show I'd ever seen, and its only redeeming quality was that it was unintentionally funny at time and had funny discussion on /a/.

Once Muria finished berserk we will get the high budget adaptation we have been waiting for right?

>It appears that you have to spend the same (or bigger) amount of work to make “cheaper” 3D look as interesting as 2D.
Honestly I would have settled for Kagewani tier if the mood and atmosphere had been preserved and they did a halfway faithful adaptation.

That pedo slant eyed fuck is going to be dead or senile before he gives Berserk a proper ending. Either he will rush it, and it will be shit, given how much time and build up we've had. He will hand it off, which he will not do. Or the fucker will die.

We are eternally cursed as Guts to an endless torment that ends only in death. Violence and rage just prolongs the inevitable.

He is a bit THICCer and built more like a football player then the tiny headed manga version. That is what makes him handsome. Besides he very closely resembles older Guts in vol.24 and down.

If anything the OVA's ignored the early renders as his current and ongoing look looks very different then Berserk's early style.

Just re-read everything between Guts leaving and the eclipse starting. Hoooly shit I didn't remember that amount of awkward tension with gripple-griffith and so many feels in general.

Honestly this panel fucking killed me for some reason, After a little reflective monologue she just looks straight at Guts and drops a line that seems endearing at first, but her expressions and body language are just pained. Very bittersweet moments between them leading up to the eclipse.

>>143628449

i just noticed it looks like goat dude has breast of his own

this sick wickedness of this series is what draws you

Is this cgi any worse than other cgi shows? I think it's the uncanny valley of it all. Miura always went for a more realistic approach when drawing and the cgi shows that I can think of that are prominent all embrace a more cartoon feel.

Also, I've never been much into cgi, but has anyone else seen shading done the way they are trying it in this one? Usually they bother to shade a face with fading layers, but we are seeing obvious attempts at trying to shade with hatching. Are the two just incongruous or is it just done poorly for this anime?

I feel like they are making an honest effort on the anime. The art isn't awe-inspiring but I'm not watching this for enlightenment. Every time they start this shit over we have to hear the same beginning again and again and again. I've accepted that. So I'll keep watching and try not to jump to too critical an opinion on it all until it at least gets on its legs.

The animation itself wasn't that much worst than RWBY's. It's the fucking directing that's shit, with the way the camera seems to move at random, without any real sense of direction, and making it impossible to really follow the action.

On that note, brace yourselves. 10 years from now, THIS will be the standard anime style.

I haven't seen the individual episodes, but I have seen the movies. The animation of the movies looks the same as the anime with less of that pencil shading stuff, and it cuts out some Griffith scenes, political intrigue, and demon encounters with the Band of the Hawk

In all honesty, the animation looked so stiff and soulless. Guts's actor felt like he was phoning it in, the animation felt so cheap.

The new guilty gear was a significant amount of work solely focused on character models and special techniques for generating lighting maps and cell shading.

There just isn't the time or the budget to do that sort of stuff on a shoestring budget with CGI. You should only do 3D for crappy background things that are relatively unnoticeable when you are on a tight budget.

I honestly have my doubts they actually saved any money doing this in 3D vs 2D. Liden Films can choke on a dozen horse dicks, most of the stuff they've produced is complete shit.

They even fucked up the OP, my eyes hurt watching certain parts of it. Can this even be called "animation" at this point? It's not even animated, just some shoddy camera movement over still models.

Is it bad that I don't think Griffith should die?

Hear me out, wouldn't it be better for Guts to reduce him to the state he was before the eclipse and then make him live like that till he dies slowly?

Despite all the weird porn and bizarre products, Japan is a very conservative country. It's likely that execs wouldn't have allowed half the shit in those arcs on screen in the name of "decency"

Is there even any morality left at this point?

I thought they ALREADY did a shitty CG version of Berserk. Why are they doing it AGAIN?

>not living in the Barenstain universe where ShaftAni handled berserk and everyone was a cute girl getting raped and killed by cute things

Do you guys remember when people were always making excuses before the films came out?

"Most of it will be 2D! CG will only be used for action scenes with loads of characters!"

Those were the days.

Looks like valkyria chronicles

It's not really shit. The animation's pretty good, music is great, and I don't remember it deviating from the manga too much.

The biggest flaw I remember it having was the weakish first episode, but the first chapters of the manga had the same problems. Other than that, It just ends too abruptly. It's miles above the Berserk reboot.

>>143630639
Because they're not telling the same part of the story.

And you're going to keep watching it because you're a giant faggot.
Just like me

>>143630771
I'll just read the manga anyway I think

>>143626699
It's almost a parody. The first episode is like 20 pages of content and they pretend that stealing a chick's gym pants is the height of depravity.
>bag falls on the floor
>MC looks worried
>intense music starts playing
What a fucking joke.

Quite possibly the greatest image in all of Berserk.
