The Blu-ray release of the original Berserk anime sold out immediately at Amazon when it launched last month. If you weren't able to secure a copy, you have another chance to do so now. A fresh printing of Berserk is available to preorder on the Crunchyroll Store. Like Amazon, the anime juggernaut sold out of its initial batch of Berserk Blu-rays, so we wouldn't be surprised to see it sell out again. Crunchyroll lists May 10 as the release date for the upcoming printing, so you won't have to wait too long to start watching the anime that was adapted from Kentaro Miura's legendary manga of the same name in 1997. Preorders are discounted by 20%, dropping the price from $60 to $45.
Berserk - The Complete 1997 TV Series - Blu-ray
$45 (was $60)
The 1997 anime has long been considered to be the best adaptation of Berserk thanks to its well-realized dark fantasy setting, unflinching brutality, and emotionally devastating moments.
Alongside all 25 episodes presented in high-definition, you can watch the series in either the original Japanese dub or the infamous English version. All extras from previous releases have been included, and the entire package is contained in a cover adorned with some eye-catching art. In case you've missed the manga or the anime, Berserk tells the tale of wandering swordsman Guts and his quest for revenge against the enigmatic Griffith, a godlike being.
Set in a world of swords, sorcery, and gruesome monsters, Berserk is a captivating tale of fate and destiny, heartbreak and betrayal. Created by the late Kentaro Miura and spanning decades of chapters, Berserk is often hailed as one of the anime series of all time thanks to its dark story and stunning animation. It's a show that you definitely don't want your kids to see, and while it does make some changes to the saga, it's still a faithful adaptation.
