Berserk Movie Trailer - Golden Age Part 1


I know I've been late on this, here it is, for you enjoyment if you haven't already seen it (which I doubt); a trailer for the first berserk movie :





Working 50h a week is truly a bitch by the way, but as soon as I get some free time of mine, which should be Monday, I'm going to write a wrap-up of everything that happened recently, including a few translations and all and answering a few questions I've seen in the comments.

  1. I'm a little mixed with the CG... The action could look amazing or distracting. Cross fingers!

  3. WOW! It maybe wishful but could the Golden Age be split into part 1, 2, and 3?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Some of that CG looked a bit dodgy but other parts were really good, are they doing a mix of CG and traditional animation?

    (50h IS a bitch)

  7. " Stalwart hero swordsman Guts manipulated freely beyond the tall long sword. Over time, lean on the dream of forsaking the Griffith Griffith Guts dare leave the original as an equal friend. This is a tale of lust in men." - Generic Translator. THIS is why your translations matter to me, g0rth.

  8. Why did they have to change the drawing style? I can't wait to see the film but I already loved the older TV series' style. It's much closer to the manga.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Really, Aycan? That is awesome, I respect your opinion, and I too love the other series. To me, it was a masterpiece, and it is my favorite anime series of all time. When I see this trailer, I notice two things: 1. It is COMPLETELY different from the older TV series, and 2. I could not be more excited because of it, and I'll tell you why. No one's going to draw a picture the same, sing a song the same, they're going to put their personalized, signature work on this great series they love as much as we do. Studio 4'C's Batman episodes looked choppy, but that's their animation style, and what those episodes did was phenomenal when I analyze it (Bruce Wayne in Japan, 'Have I Got A Story For You'). One thing is the same, though. It IS Berserk, and we're going to have fun with it. People are gonna get chopped up, there's going to be demons, all the stuff that matters. Cheers.

  10. Is it just me, or does Griffith have Angelina Jolie's lips? Dammit, now I can't unsee it. Oh well, the trailer looks pretty awesome at least.

  11. Hey G0rth, can you tell us what the "members" thing is on the site? I joined/subscribed to it, but I have no idea what I subscribed to, or what the benefits are.

  12. the background drawing is really awesome but when it comes to the character no comment heheheh

    ReplyDelete
  15. I just hope the movies are not to far apart. I don't think I can wait a couple of years till they get to where the manga is at now...

    ReplyDelete
  16. I pray to god that Susumu Hirasawa is doing the sound track for this. its not berserk without Hirasawa

    ReplyDelete
  17. So would warner bros involvement mean English dub and maybe even a few UK screens whens it's released? That would be amazing

    ReplyDelete
  18. Am i the only one that is concerned about the fact that it looks like they are doing the same thing as the anime and chopping up the story. I really hope I am wrong because there was so much amazing stuff that they skipped in the anime to cut it short. Lets hope that they include everything. Warner Brothers involvement scares me quite a bit they better not get their politically correct fingers into this and censor the shit out of it....

    ReplyDelete
  19. I am worried about censoring. I just don't know if this is going to put out the gore and nudity from the manga.

    ReplyDelete
  20. i saw skull knight, so they must be on the right track with the story.
    As long as it retains the full story i can live with a bit of censoring, and release a special uncut version later down the line when the OVA happens or something.
    I would say pucks gone again but then they wont be able to do the elfhelm arc.
    Any who the only films confimed are the golden age, and unlike the anime we wont see the black swordsman prelouge, so the detail is really going to follow with the OVA that hopefully follows.

    ReplyDelete
  21. The quality of the video is pretty bad.
    check:

    It looks much better.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I don't know what you guys are talking about, the anime style looks very similar to the original, the only thing i'd be worried about is warner censoring it or dumbing it down. The gore and nudity is a must.

  24. im not thaT concern about the soundtrack as long as its great i dont care weather it was sung by susumi or not.... im more concern about the whole adaptation of the manga and ofcors d drawing hihi.....

    ReplyDelete
  25. The more I watch the trailer, the better it looks. I'm sorry I haven't gotten to that level of Berserk fanaticism yet like the rest of you that makes me critique stupid shit and not enjoy something... oh wait, no I'm not.

    ReplyDelete
  26. i spooged all over myself and rubbed it in.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Kind of disappointed to hear that Hirasawa won't be doing the music for this film. His work really set the atmosphere in the anime series, and it more than made up for the low budget animation.

    ReplyDelete
  28. where did you hear this?

    I read at animenewsnetwork that he will make it.

    ReplyDelete
  29. animenewsnetwork is not a very reliable source. From what I read on japanese BBS (with my limited knowledge in japanese language) his involvement is unconfirmed.

    Full name of Berserk film is: ベルセルク 黄金時代篇Ⅰ 覇王の卵

    ReplyDelete
  30. I agree with all of the comments above, I hope the entirety of the story is there, the manga is soooo much more brutal than the anime... also, if they censor a bit I wont be too worried cause the manga, 90% of the time, has a lot more language/nudity but in the case of nudity, very simply, in every battle/slaughter scene in the manga your almost guaranteed to see some level of nudity like it or not.. that's like cutting half the story out being all of those gritty battle filled scenes... that would be sad.

    anyway, with the sheer size of this manga today I'm sure the budget is much more than they would have hoped for with the original.. I've been looking forward to this for too long.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Well said Anon #30. As for G0rth, you have got to get on those new posts about what all the website is offering and the tweets clara_de_porras is making. I know there's some stuff that's being said, like that "Band of the Hawk" membership thing and what it offers. We'd love to know!

    ReplyDelete
  32. What's written at the end after the 2012 part 1 and then it says something about part 2 and part 3?

    ReplyDelete
  33. i hope that part 2 and 3 wud be available on 2012 as well.....

    ReplyDelete
  34. The soldier at the left bottom of the screen on 00:21 falls like an inflatable doll. Why "CG", why?

    ReplyDelete
  35. guts drawing sucks sometimes griffith and casca 2.... i hope that guts' drawing will improve on part 2 and 3 coz he is my favorite char here heheheh.........char

    So do you know an alternate blog, i would really like to get an update on the situation with the Anime.

    ReplyDelete
  41. it's not that this blog is dead
    it'd because there hasn't been any worthwhile information about the "anime" that has come out
    derp'n anon
    this blog is about the new anime
    tons of things going on might refer to the manga,
    but that is all

    ReplyDelete
  42. no new trallers???? plz post a comment if it is available hehehe i cant wait for the movie hehehe

    ReplyDelete
  43. ^ I highly doubt we will see another trailer till a few months before release at the most. I have a feeling the anime will probably be delayed again, and i don't like the fact that Miura hired the guy who does the Idolm@ster anime as director because he is addicted to that POS. Anyways i hope it turns out to be really good, either way ill continue to read the manga.

    Speaking of manga anyone know when chapter 325 will be out? He went and took another extended break that lazy asshole.

  44. @Dr. DaMan

    If you have been paying attention to @clara_de_porras' twitterfeed, you would notice that the recording has already taken place with some Japanese cast members already announced and the recording venue posted being Lyndhurst Hall. (See: http://www.airstudios.com/studios/lyndhurst-hall.aspx) As well as en entirely Japanese site launched and being updated with movie relevant information that has not been touched upon here.

    ReplyDelete
  45. eh
    recording ain't that big
    and the movie relevant info is just cast/staff info and an introduction for the film

    as i've said, nothing new worth mentioning

    the only info worth mentioning would be a new CM coming out with the release of volume 36

    Nope you are actually correct this is from the twitter:

    Much-awaited…the names of the music composers are released! Theme song by: Susumu Hirasawa, Music by: Shiro Sagisu. #berserkfilm #berserk

    http://twitter.com/#!/Clara_de_Porras

    Hirasawa is doing the theme song while the guy that did the music for Evangelion is doing the soundtrack.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Great news on Hirasawa involvment.
    hope it's more than just the opening tune, as much as I love evangelion Hirasawa made the anime a big deal to me even thought I felt I lost my right testical when it finished, even more so when I read the manga and found it was planned to end early from the start.
    I bet g0rth will make a post when there is a sound to put with the names, looking forward to it :)))))

    ReplyDelete
  51. Good news and bad news. It has been recently confirmed that Susumu Hirasawa will be providing the theme song for the film. The bad news is that Shiro Sagisu will be composing the actual soundtrack.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I don't find that bad news at all. I loved the score for Evangelion 2.22

  55. Thanks for the links Shimmon. Especially the second ad looks very good, I wish they never used CG.

    ReplyDelete
  56. @ Anonymous

    I agree the CG looks bad, not because its CG but because its poorly animated. Hand drawn animation would have been much better and it fits the series more than CG, either way at least it looks like it will be as gory as it should be, i hope that it emulates the manga as much as possible. That is no cutting corners and cutting out the Tournament arc/ Wyald's Persuit Arc.

    If you don't care about what was pretty much the only redeeming quality of the Berserk anime and video games, then I guess it wouldn't matter.

  63. New trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=FSPWx3fQCDI

    Personally pretty disappointed, all the characters look super clean and "moe". The first song was nice (Hirasawa I assume), but the second song was total crap its like some bad Japanese R&B song. Doesn't fit at all. Oh well its better than nothing. Official release date seems to be Feb. 4 2012.

    ReplyDelete
  64. The second one is Ai. She's just doing the ending.

    ReplyDelete
  65. you guys complain to much, ill tell you what even if the damn thing was in black and white i'd watch it. also i think they only did CG because it would take alot longer to hand draw the entire thing dont you think? just sayin:)

    ReplyDelete
  66. If they really do wanna catch up with the manga then yeah there's a lot to cover, CG seems a lot faster and cheaper.

    ReplyDelete
  67. i think this available at animax. i wish the author post longer trailer of the anime to let other see if this is a good movie or what.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Japanese version with Eng subs will probably won't be censor but can't say for Eng dub Warner version, if they do that for dub i would like to say that wtf why would they do something like that to the movie for god sake. who cares if there is nudity or gore those two things are what makes Berserk more of a real life situation the world isn't all happy and wonderful it's full of sadness and pain and i that's why it shouldn't be censored when it comes out in Eng dub

    ReplyDelete
  72. are they gonna finish the entire story in the next couple of movies cause its about time they do

    ReplyDelete
  73. First 10 minutes of the movie leaked.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEgcHdTb8t4&list=UULlrZmS3NBQTX_-k0nTorug&index=1&feature=plcp your welcome:)

  78. Here's the DVD, but its 20gb. Japanese dub with no subs, but japanese ones as well.
    Delete this, if you see any offense in it, but sorry. I couldnt be arsed to wait a second longer with all the excitement.
    http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/392080905/berserk+egg?tab=summary


    I watched it just now. The story feels epic and the fightscenes are very well fleshed out. But then it starts with some ridiculous timeskips. Sadly they fucked up his whole emotional connection to the Hawks. It feels cramped like most manga/movie conversions. Not the worst kind, but like... you see Pipin twice the whole movie. Once he reaches Guts a beer and the other time hes eating at a fucking table. Same goes for the rest. That was a bit of a letdown.
    Im still confused, if I liked it or not. Because some of the scenes were just incredibly beautifully done and the fights were nothing less than awesome.

  81. How can you guys cheese it by watching it for free? If you are really a fan you should pay for it!

    Just bought and watched the dvd. At first I was a bit concerned with the cgi moments in the game, but once I got used to it I really enjoyed the movie. The fights are even better than in the anime series. Too bad they seem to follow the same stroy as the anime. I hope they would do a second series with more of the rest of the stry.

    ReplyDelete
  82. sorry but this blog sucks. I had to stumble upon a copy of the second movie, which I didn't even know was out already. thanks a lot...
