For decades, Berserk has remained one of the most influential and celebrated dark fantasy manga series. However, its anime adaptations have struggled to do justice to Kentaro Miura’s iconic work. Now, a new reboot is rumored to be in development, promising a fresh take that fans have long been waiting for.

The past anime adaptations of Berserk have received mixed reactions, with the 1997 version praised for its storytelling but criticized for its limited scope. The 2016-2017 CGI-heavy series, on the other hand, was widely panned for its awkward animation and lack of fluidity. The rumored reboot aims to correct these past mistakes, offering a more faithful, hand-drawn approach that better reflects Miura’s dark, detailed art style.
The animation studio rumored to be behind this project, Studio Eclipse, is a relatively unknown name in the industry. While its track record remains unclear, the studio’s name itself is a direct reference to one of the most harrowing events in Berserk, sparking curiosity about its dedication to the source material. If this reboot is in the right hands, it could be a game-changer for fans who have long hoped for a proper adaptation.
Unlike previous anime versions, which skipped or condensed parts of the Berserk story, this reboot reportedly focuses solely on the “Black Swordsman” arc. This opening section of the manga introduces Guts in his most vengeful form, battling demonic apostles while uncovering the horrors of his past. A darker, more intense approach could set this adaptation apart and finally deliver the brutal tone that Berserk deserves.
