How to watch Berserk in order
Kentaro Miura's world isn't for the faint-hearted.
Most anime fans, even ones who haven't seen Berserk, have probably heard tales of how dark and twisted Kentaro Miura's story is. If you're planning on finding out for yourself, allow us to guide you on the best way to watch the anime.
Berserk follows Guts, a mercenary trying to survive the horrors of war – the very same horrors that turn hellish as the narrative takes a nosedive into the supernatural and sadistic, bringing otherworldly monsters into the mix thanks to the God Hand.
Sadly, Miura died before its conclusion, leaving the fate of Berserk in limbo.
However, the editorial team at Young Anima promised to continue the story, with the help of planning materials left behind and a friend of Miura's, who says he knows what happens to the tormented anti-hero.
This means now is as good a time as any to see whether or not the world truly is as gruesome as fans make it out to be.
