To bad this series isnt own by ADV they would have put up the money to make more episodes for Berserk. Then again they did put up the money to make more of Kenshin (Samurai X) even though they didn't own the series. I don't think Japanesse companies don't care about if a series is popular anymore it's really about money. ADV put up the money to make more of the old series Bublegum crisis series. oh and Urban Vision with Ninja Scroll eventhough the movie was not popular in Japan it was in the U.S. now we have the tv series because of Urban Vision. In other words MONEY TALKS as long a company is willing to put up the money to be a second season there's a possibility of happneing even if it's not popular in Japan anymore. Oh and this could be bad news but Cartoon Network is looking into of possibility os putting Berserk on Adult Swim. Yeah it probably end up being a hack job but at least it be on TV. :-\
