It looks like he's made out of clay or something.

Neither anime is really that great, the original series looks like an 80's anime that was made in the late 90's and the new movies looks like an early 00's anime that was made in the early 2010's. For how popular and good Berserk is it's crazy how poor both of it's anime adaptations are, and sad how neither can get past the same arc of the story. I would kill for an Ultimate Berserk/Berserk Brotherhood that was hand drawn in HD that covers the entire story... just let the mangaka finish the story first (in 20 years...)

all it's missing is some sound effects and speed lines and you have the original Berserk anime :p

Yep, that's why I said "skim" as half of the fight was that or close ups of them talking

That's not a whole lot better...

Nope, Berserk deserves far better then it's received
 
Yeah, I had never seen Berserk before but I had always heard it was super popular. I guess quality in story transcends all. Which also explains why Togashi can get away with the stuff he gets away with.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
The only way animated Berserk post-Eclipse could happen is through movies or OVAs. Half the stuff that happens would NOT fly on TV.
Keep in mind, Jojo airs at midnight and still gets censored.

Berserk's manga started in the year 1990 and is still ongoing and only released 335 chapters in 24 years. I will admit the first several chapters were each 100 pages long, but still even giving that the benefit of the doubt (your average weekly series is 20 pages, average monthly is 40) you're still only going to be able to get another 20-30ish chapters out of that.

That said Berserk is amazing, it and Hunter x Hunter are in my top 5 ongoing manga at number 2 and number 3 behind only One Piece. Normally they rank lower due to the fact they're always on hiatus but as we've gotten new chapters of both in the past few months WOO
 
I'm surprised the HxH anime has anything to go off of based on some of them scribbles :p

To be fair quiet a few of the manga chapters have been redone for the volume releases, but those original weekly chapters in Jump... yeah oh god

That's fine, I'm totally okay with them making Berserk into an OVA series ala Ultimate Hellsing so they can put in all the uncensored violence, nudity, and sex the series deserves

It's amazing that the Bleach anime has anything at times based on this theory.

Not that that art is bad in Bleach, it isn't. It's very unhelpful at times at depicting action though.

that cherry scene along with the animation is a mix between scary yet hilarious. His face is so detailed and the cherry is just....everywhere

Original Naruto soundtrack is easily better overall. Shippuden's has a few good tracks (moreso in later arcs) but there's a lot that's too long-winded or simply unfitting.

Eh, I like the soundtrack though it's not near as good as Pt 1 Naruto. In shippuden there are some great tracks though although from what I have seen of episodes, they can often seem out of place.

Wait, are webm no longer embedded or is my extension for Chrome just not wanting to work? Nevermind, might have just been the fact I didn't refresh the page since the post appeared via Live Thread extension.

Edit: Yup, it's the Live Thread extension. I "refreshed" and it changed it from embedded to link.
 
Guys, kind of a random question but I figure since this is basically an Adult Swim subthread it'd be fine. Is the Warden from Superjail magic? LIke, he does all this weird shit all the time and his mind has been shown to be super freaky. Is he magic or is it just an exaggeration of the show

He has the same magic that Bugs Bunny and every other classic cartoon character has. His every action is exaggerated for entertainment/humor's sake.

Never seen an episode of JoJo. If it comes to toonami I'm game. People see to like it. I mostly know the show by the Dio meme.

I said it before and I'll say it again.

JoJo is summed up in 3 words: Vampire squirrel hand.

It is pretty cray cray. I look forward to seeing freshman reactions when if it airs and I will not say a word until an episode airs from here on out :p

Okay Raxus I'm gunna take your word for it. If I don't come out of watching JoJo thinking something along these bizarre lines, you owe me. Sounds fun or just plain weird. Hope it's both.

Thanks for that.
It sounds great from that short description that you gave.
Will watch when it comes to Toonami.

If people assume it's coming to Toonami I will hold off on seeing it too.

Same for HoTD, that gif was hilarious and if the show is that over the top about killing zombies(I think that is the storyline) then I'll wait for it to hit Toonami.

Depending on if there is anything in works currently to get either show

I think it is safe to say HSotD will never hit Toonami. It is borderline pornography (the author used to draw hentai) :p

You can watch it in a dark room on Netflix I am pretty sure. Make sure nobody is around when you watch and keep a shower running to wash off the shame.

yikes shit sounds a lewd....so it looks like I need to ask the same question I ask Toonamigaf when it comes to watching questionable anime.

Is it possible to even watch this drunk/tipsy

edit: the fact dude use to draw hentai probably means shit will lean more to that then action and shit......ehhh I'll probably pass

I think his character is just extremely exaggerated like everything else in the show. I don't recall ever seeing anything that suggested he had magical powers, or anything like that.
