SaiyajinNoOuji
I'm still better than you
I was dissapointed that there were no cosplayers here....well not really.. okinawa
there were 10 people including me.IncantatioN said:You lucky man, SaiyajinNoOuji!! Thanks for the heads up about June and other details. Was it a full house? It would be rad if they served Berserk themed food at the theater as well. Eat and watch Berserk . Just typed out 4/5 questions for you but I'll wait and watch the movie.
Yeah, watching it myself. It's just a feed showing people hanging out at the Berserk cafe. Unsure if it's those who just came out of the theaters, but I think it is. Neat though. Everyone seems excited. (lol, somone just dropped it after trying to lift it. Hahaha, "This ain't no kid's toy!")DirectDK said:SO MUCH TO SAY! Will write a bit later. But for now, looks like this is streaming live right now. You need a membership (it's free), but check it out. Nothing really interesting yet. Just people holding up the life size DS... lol.

I have many questions ... foremost though, regarding the childhood sequence, is it the one with Gambino petting the dogs, then lifting his head up, showing where Guts cut him? It should precede the scene where he wakes with Casca sleeping next to him. Also, do they show Donovan, or is it only a shadow?SaiyajinNoOuji said:Bare with me since im typing this via my smartphone and i have some sausage fingers. They did cut/condense some stuff but i dont think it really detracted from the main story line. Guts childhood and some of the smaller battles were shortened to small 5 second quips. Everything else though... woah. The music set the atmosphere tremendously. I was pumped from start to finish. Even though i already knew what happened, i was still excited.
DAMN. Is that normal for a Saturday late morning/ early afternoon show in Okinawa or you think it'll pack up at night? Maybe reviews of it being good (per media consensus) may urge more people to watch it. I can imagine the mother covering her kids' eyes at all the gory scenesSaiyajinNoOuji said:there were 10 people including me.

No problem all.supa_pokute said:Yea thanks SaiyajinNoOuji for all the information; I can't wait to see it. Now that you have seen the full movie, did you enjoy the new voice actors and actresses?
Joe Chip said:Thanks for all the information SaiyajinNoOuji. I know that you enjoyed the movie, but can i ask you something ? How much would you rate the movie from a scale 1 to 10 ?
Handmade_lion said:Speaking of that scene with Julius' son SaiyajinNoOuji, I must know about the ninja mask/assassin's shroud. How long does it stay on? Just how large precisely is its role?
Alright, thank you my friend. I can't wait to see it now. I doubt it will come in the big screen over here but i'll order the Blue Ray as soon as possible !SaiyajinNoOuji said:I give it an 8. There were some moments where you felt the emotion of what was going on.
JezzaX said:I'm really happy to see the first ten minutes, especially the title sequence, which urinates on "Tell me Why" from a great height. It's great to hear Hirasawa back in a Berserk production and to get a feel for how far they want to take this project.
Spoilers ahoy!JezzaX said:The questions I have for SaiyajinNoOuji is, would you be able to describe the ending and how well it's closed off? Do you get a chance to see a preview for the next film? If so, what footage is shown? and what are your impressions of the fight scene with Zodd, is the animation consistent for that scene?
SaiyajinNoOuji said:Spoilers ahoy!
The ends mood is pretty dark since Guts feels a lot of regret about what he did to Julius and his son... also after hearing Griffith talk about his dream and how his only friend are those that have a dream of their own... you feel bad for Guts. From there you see clips of the next movie and it shows you the 100 man slayer portions, Guts and Griffith's duel, Griffith having his way with Charlotte, God Hands, Skullknight... everyone!
I'm exicited for it, but its not until June.
Señor Caudillo said:This part piques my interest. I wonder what exactly did Studio 4°C had to offer that the other animation companies didn't?
Señor Caudillo said:I have mixed feelings about this. The making and releasing of the films with the worldwide audiences in mind, it also possibly leaves open the door for censorship, in an effort to make them "appealing" to such audiences,. Which means that particularly unsavory characters like Wyald and their scenes might get cut.
Señor Caudillo said:Well, then I was right all along, when I mentioned few months ago the Berserk movie's shoddy CGI visuals having to do with its shoestring budget. But hey, even though they can't seem to have enough money to hire more (and better experienced) animators, at least Studio 4°C can still afford that medieval swordfighting "expert" guy as a consultant
JoeZeon said:Well in a perfect world, Berserk wouldn't be censored in the least. But Berserk is a very mature series and even though it has a great following, I don't think they could fund the rest of the project if only Berserk fans go. Personally I'm willing to sacrifice parts like Wylad, for the chance that we can finally see Post-Eclipse animated.
hellrasinbrasin said:I'm sure that fans will get to see the more extreme material with a DVD release.
SaiyajinNoOuji said:After Griffith beats Guts the first time, he is having a dream/halucination... during that time it shows really briefly and blurry as shit.. his fight with gambino where he cuts his nose, being raped by donovan.. it didnt show him doing the act, just his crosseyed ugly face laughing while you see Guts legs flailing around, gambino trying to kill him, him setting fire to the hut, being chassed by the soldiers, and then with Gambino sitting on a chair and his head sliding off. After that he wakes up and Casca is next to him. She gets up (see all of her ) and proceeds to him meeting the rest of the Band.
SaiyajinNoOuji said:When Guts kills Julius's son... and he has that moment of understanding and regret. I felt for him... I cant recall if it was in the manga but Guts makes a small attempt to comfort him by holding his hand... but there was a bit of hesitation... I dont know. I think they did that portion really well. I could really get the emotions they were trying to convey and I think that was a huge improvement over the original series.
SaiyajinNoOuji said:Looking through my pamphlet, next movie is june 23rd. Also it mentions the third movie but no date.
