The 1997 Berserk anime is finally getting a fully-fledged Blu-Ray remaster, but not all fans may be able to watch it
Berserk fans are often starved for new content with long gaps between chapters, disappointing modern anime adaptations, and the awful blow dealt with the death of series creator Kentaro Miura, putting the continuation of Berserk into question before official confirmation by Miura’s staff who’ll go on to continue the manga.
