What hurts the most is that this will be known for a good while as the "official" anime, since it's the only one that goes past the golden age.
Which means no Lost Children or Black Swordsman arc ever.
And it will also be a VERY long time before we see a new adaption, but judging by the quality of this one, that's probably for the best.

>>158152206
Maybe someday anon. If Miura ever decides to give the rights to a good studio and not the current hacks doing the QUALITY animation, there may be hope.

>>158152228
Maybe in 15 years if we get another adaptation, 3D anime will have made enough strides that even shoestring budgets and untalented fucks can make it look decent.

>>158152536
given that the 1990's one is objectively better than the 2016 version that is very unlikely, envy your optimism though

>>158152573
Well yeah, but it's better because this one is on a new medium on the cheap. As long as no one starts making anime on puppets or whatever to save even more money, 3D techniques should have substantially improved by then.

RWBY was also a small budget 3d animation and is still objectively better. For something like Berserk, there is not excuse to cut corners.

>inb4 the manga isn't that popular until now

Hellsing wasn't mainstream either and it's ova's were top teir. It may come down to an animation studio like madhouse being the better one but here is the thing. The shit-tier animation isn't the only problem

>If I don't have the budget and the skill to animate

>I would only be focused on the best parts in the manga because of time constraints and skip huge parts as a result.

So guess what.......

>>158152228
Did they skip over lost children? That's completely unacceptable

>>158153017
>RWBY was also a small budget 3d animation and is still objectively better.
I saw some RBYY when it was new and it was pretty shit too.

Regardless, that's hardly my point. You can make 3D anime look great RIGHT NOW, but it requires budget, talent or both. In 15 years it may have evolved to the point where even the worst hacks can make something decent.

At least the Slan episode was somewhat decent

>>158153017
Early RWBY was pretty rough, but the style and movement at least had a consistency to it.

>>158153186
true, but unlike berserk RWBY's animation actually did improve later on whereas berserk's animation gets hilariously worse.

>>158153065
It's actually completely acceptable. The more they skip the less they defile

>>158153241
and not to mention that it was RT's own original work with Monty Oum, where as the anime for Berserk is based on the manga which had vastly superior artwork and the anime butchered various arcs in the story

>>158153333
actually you right

Remember when we thought the movies looked bad?

Looking back those movies had some nice choreography and decent visuals most of the time.

>each anime gets worse than the last.
At this rate we will have a Berserk sock puppets anime in 2025.

>>158151891
>>berserk will never get a GitS: SAC quality adaptation

Inconsistent animation but better overall? I don't know if anyone would want it at first.

>>158150490
>Guts: "Screw you guys, I'm-a goin' home"
>Exit stage left

What if they did CG that wasn't trying to imitate 2d?

Is there any real reason of going that cheap? I don't think a license like Berserk would be that risk for a bigger budget animation, even going full 2D as the first series.

At least Aku no Hana went rotoscopy for "artistic reasons".

This is just being lazy and cheap. Why?

>>158154031
That... actually looks pretty rad

>>158154750
Take a real, honest look at the anime industry. Look at what constitutes as "popular" season by season. Read about some of the supposedly biggest studios and how they're scraping by. Look at what Toei has been doing with some of it's biggest series.

It's honestly not even surprising.

>>158154750
>Is there any real reason of going that cheap?
Same reason Dragonball Super looked like a pile of vomit until the Tournament of Might, which currently looks like a pile of vomit arranged in such a way that it vaguely resembles Goku's face. That reason being the fact that huge franchises like Dragonball and Berserk shit money. If the next season of Berserk consisted of six 10 minute episodes consisting of nothing more than Guts' face and his VA screaming "GURIFISU" on constant loop, it would STILL be in at the very least the top half of that season's Blu-Ray sales.

>>158154880
More like it currently looks like a pile of vomit with a thicker black outline and color filters.

>>158154750
They might have continued in a film format if the trilogy performed better.

For profit.
Things with brand recognition and following can churn out low quality and people will still eat it up as long as they don't fuck it up too hard, see every licensed musou game in existence.

This looks like something I'd find inside a random picture gallery on ex.

>>158151629
Any sort of shitty 2D animation would have been multitudes better than this shit we've got.

Although it is free so meh : \

>>158154667
When is Muppet Berserk?

I've been watching every episode of this travesty since it began. The story is good enough to keep me watching but some things like the webm in the OP really are fucking awful.
I've never seen any Berserk aside from this. Does the manga start where this anime did?

>>158155190
Start from chapter 1, faggot.

>>158155190
Just start from chapter 1. Any animated and in this case "animated" form of Berserk has always left out many details.

I wonder why they didn't just go with a BD-tier release for Berserk if they can't afford a weekly schedule.

Anyway, it doesn't look like it's the only problem. Settings aren't fully prepared ahead of time, some characters don't have a full range of emotions (which the manga captures) probably due to not enough time in rigging the face or the fear of distorting the face to SFM levels, and so many other things to mention.

There are simply no excuses, really. Earlier Berserk movies had way better 3D than this.

>>158154880
I refuse to believe there's that many people willing to pay for this garbage. Hardcore fans should be disgusted by it and the rest casual enough not to buy, and they are probably disgusted as well to a lesser extent.

>>158155233

>risk
The lack of risk is why they dare to go full cheap. Established fans won't give a shit since they're already buying the manga. Now when it comes to newer fans, you might say it'll turn them off, but sad fact of the matter is, there's still plenty of people who were content with this shit. Also, even if you're a new fan, chances are you know Berserk is a thing that exists even if you've never read it. Berserk being CG is basically "anime being made to advertise source materials" to the most extreme end. There's no point putting in good money to make a really good adaptation when all it needs to do is remind people that Berserk is still a thing. Why bother throwing in huge amount of resources and talent to get a marginal amount of new fans into the manga when it you can throw shit at it and still get marginal increase in fans. And yes, marginal, because as said, Berserk is already famous. It's sort of like how even brands like Coca Cola still do ads - it's not to get new customers, but simply to maintain brand familiarity.

It's fun, corny, and the action scenes are very well done.
It's also interesting in the sense that it feels like someone took an anime and a toku, smashed them together, and filmed it like a kungfu movie.

>>158155306
There's a reason why Michael Bay is still one of the biggest guys in Hollywood despite being considered a laughing stock by the critics. His movies are incredibly well advertised (and I think a movie's "success" is determined by their sales on opening weekend). Advertisement is key. Monster franchises like Dragonball and Berserk effectively advertise themselves.

Is this the Enduring Destiny of anime?

>>158155440
You got it the other way around. It's called wuxia, a thing that has been around for a long time and influenced Japanese culture. It's not an exaggeration to say that toku and part of anime are the ones who took from wuxia.

>>158155476
I'm pretty sure the only reason Michael Bay is able to stay in the industry is because his films almost always do well in China.

People who have no eye for animation quality.

>>158152228
If I were making a Berserk anime, I'd advertise the Golden Age as the primary beginning. However, I'd begin with a Black Swordsman adaption that is treated like a "preview" or some sort of OVA leading up to it, maybe even just a single TV special or something like that. Then the rest would be adapted in the manga order with maybe little aspects changed here or there to better fit a standard 20~ minute episode format.

>>158156038
I imagine their argument is something among the lines of "the animation doesn't matter as long as the story is good!". The problem is that there's a fucking manga, and good animation is literally the only reason an anime based on a manga or LN has to exist.

>>158152264
they only do SF. It's easier. The only animated objects are the characters and the monsters. The rest is completely still which fit CGI. The battle in Sidonia were fucking amazing
