If I remember hearing correctly, the anime series was only based on one story arc in the manga, which is probably the reason behind any feelings of incompleteness (I haven't yet seen the series, so I can't say for sure).

However, as it stands, there is no more Berserk! animation and nothing's in the works to anyone's knowledge.

There is a video game for the sega dreamcast called Berserk : Gatts Rage. I've never played it though, but i hear that it progresses the berserk story a bit but doesn't bring closure. I'm not 100% sure if it's true or not, but you can check it out for yourself I'm sure you could find something about the game.

You haven't? You definately need to.

The first episode is cool but,

spoiler[ The whole series is basically a flashback. Very good story though.]

In the interview with the director included on the last DVD, the director said in no uncertain terms that he wanted to do a second season of Berserk. I think that has fueled alot of speculation about season two.

Wow! Someone mentions Berserk Season 2 on this forum and is handed intelligent, calm responses instead of being torn to subatomic particles!!!

Wait! This couldn't mean that.... (Looks out of his window) Yup, hell has frozen over!

I think that on the boxset it says "The entire first season", or something along those lines, which implies that they's going to be a second one...

Well the Encyclopedia says it was syndicated in Japan from October 97' to March 98'. So if there is going to be a second season, that production staff is pretty slow.

If we definately know that there won't be another season, then either Media Blasters or the company in Japan screwed up and got all of our hopes up for nothing. Crying or Very sad

By the way, wasn't there a thread that stated a rumor about "pre-production" for a 2nd season?

yeha but prepuduction basicly means there porbly sitting around drinking sake going hey we should make another season. "yeah we should" "hey hand me another drink"

IF you want to more Berserk for now I suggest the Manga being published by Darkhorse. I belive there up to vol 2 now (of 26(i think 26 was the last one to come out in japan) so far as its still running in japan)

Yeah. A friend of mine has at least the 1st or possibly both of them (can't remember for sure.) I was actually thinking of borrowing some of his manga sometime, but I have a lot of anime to catch up on. Wink

You... looked out the window to tell that Hell has frozen over? Wouldn't that mean you live in Hell? Anime smallmouth + sweatdrop

Ehhhh, yeah, that was kind of where I was going with that post but now you’ve gone and ruined it by making me explain it like this. This truly is... ah hell, Satan is here to borrow some of my anime again. You know he says borrow, but he never returns any damned thing.
