Berserk: The Golden Age is the second anime adaptation of the popular manga’s Golden Age arc, following a previous series from 1997. This version aims to be a more accurate retelling of the story.

While the story is closer to the manga, opinions varied on the animation style, which combines classic 2D with 3D computer graphics. Despite this, both the films and the original series were generally well-received, and this Blu-ray is a great way to enjoy one of the best story arcs in the fantasy genre.
