Still watching, but I agree with you 100%. Shit is shit. No nipples? Now shit is way better than that. Just finished the latest episode, and the line "pearls before swine" (used by a whore in this ep) really hit home. The company animating this story squandered a golden opportunity by not recognizing its worth.
Peace.
This new episode had some good moments. But it still suffers from being so RUSHED! I donīt get it. It feels like the production team more thinks about how to pack enough plot progression into 20 minutes than thinking about how to make GOOD 20 minutes of anime. Itīs so fucking frustrating. And then thereīs the terrible animation on top of it ...
And yeah, no nipples. It looks so goddamm dumb. And they wonīt sell a single bluray more for having them uncensored there, because nobody will buy this shitty glorified video game cutscene.

Watched it all. As people have mentioned, the 3D animation isn't good. But I ended up getting used to it.
As an adaptation, it's pretty goddamn faithful. At first, I was pretty pissed that they made Caska white, but then suddenly, like a few episodes in, they suddenly changed it(seriously, they even changed it in the intros, you can compare them), and it was before she even really showed up in the series. So it's fine now.
I really like the music, and the sound effects on Guts' sword is just fantastic.
Either way, they're already coming back in Spring finally getting to the part I really like. So I'm glad for that.
And yeah, it's been censored. It's a show airing on TV in 2016. What did you people expect? The manga borders on hentai at points.
Frankly, I think simply removing the nipples/dicks is a better solution than constantly having to have weird camera cuts or objects always awkwardly in the way.
Not at all surprised to come here and find MFauli complaining that "They didn't do the rape good enough!"
XD
Sorry for focusing on the important things!!1
Anyway, I thought it was a great final episode. The beginning of this adaptation was super rough, but then I got used to it. Itīs still ugly and disappointing, but, ya know, even shitty animation cannot ruin the masterpiece that is BERSERK. Best of all: Thanks to how crappy this anime looked, the upcoming PS4-game from Koei Tecmo is surprisingly eye-pleasing, definitely more beautiful than the anime. Really psyched for that one, and the typical Musou-gameplay is a perfect fit.
Anyway, good anime overall, but it will forever be a mystery why a popular franchise like Berserk couldnīt have gotten a proper animation, maybe from Madhouse or whoever made HXH 2011.

Which is also Madhouse.Originally Posted by MFauli
Wait, Casca was white!?
Peace.
Wasn't she ganguro?
For the first couple episodes, yeah. Though she only appeared in the intro and flashbacks in those episodes.
Once she actually showed up for real, she was dark skinned again, and they changed the intro. I can only assume people(rightfully) complained.
Nah. There was a single artwork with special lighting that had her skin appear brighter than it really is. But there never was an attempt at whitewashing her, wouldnīt even make sense.

Seriously man. Watch the intro to episode 1, then watch the intro to episode 12. It's VERY obvious that they changed it.

Well holy shit. WTF were they thinking.
Peace.
No idea, but I'm glad they fixed it before she showed up in the show.
Although looking back at it again, it actually took them till episode 11 before they finally changed the intro.
What the fuck. If they didn't change it, they could've gotten away with the "lighting" excuse. Now they just admitted to racism. Burn the witches!
Peace.
She has suffered several changes. Even in the manga she has changed quite a bit. In the beggining she was more Kushan like, shape of eyes was pretty distinct and exotic.

This Berserker CGI sucks, and lighting sucks double time.
The path of excess leads to the tower of wisdom
But she was never white until 2016.
Peace.
Is she the new Michael Jackson?

lol, yeah, that they changed it proves their shenanigans. So dumb. Kjaska is one of the few hot black girls ;>

Was it really intentional? The graphics are cheap, indie game level CGI. It's entirely possible the ones creating and animating the character models didn't even know what they they were doing, as they could do it half-assedly compared to real anime productions where characters are painfully drawn and edited by humans. The director isn't a total n00b, but it's not like he would have any outstanding projects under his belt. Perhaps he hadn't instructed the modellers and animators well enough. Nobody then paid any attention to the situation until fans started complaining (although I guess they needed to filter that detail out of the myriad other complaints this POS series gained). When a show is this bad, it's given it's going to have all manner of problems.

Guess who's back!
Art's exactly the same. So, still shitty 3D animation.
Oh well. This is still my favorite part of the story, so I'm still looking forward to it.

Meh, Iīll keep watching, but my hype is very low. Especially after playing the PlayStation 4-game, which covered all the upcoming story, and probably in a manner not much worse than this anime ;>
