Synopsis:
It is one of the bloodiest periods in the history of the world. Wars, massacres, starvation, great misery reigns all over the world. During the massacres, a baby is born from a dead woman hanging from a tree. The group of mercenaries who pass by the baby, who was miraculously born, notices. Gambino's beloved woman, the leader of this mercenary group, wants to adopt the baby and gambino can't break it. They call the baby they rescued Gutts. But shortly afterwards, the woman Gambino loved dies. Gambino continues to care for the baby they rescued and raises Guts in very difficult conditions. Guts, who has had to grow up on battlefields since he was a little boy, is in danger of all kinds of deaths. He even has to carry a sword larger than his height as a child. Guts, who grew up with good combat experience, is doing his best to impress Gambino, whom he considers his family. One day, gambino loses his leg while serving in a mercenaries again in a war. The people around him claim that all of these disasters are caused by Guts' jinx. Unable to take any more of his experiences, Gambino goes to his tent to kill Guts. Shocked to see that the person he considers his family is trying to kill himself, Guts kills Gambino as he tries to defend himself and begins to flee. He's got no one left. He only has a sword for him. He only feels good when he swings his sword. He tries to make a living as a mercenner. One day, while he's in mercenary service, he knocks down a very powerful man. That'll get the attention of Grifith, the Leader of the Falcons Team who was there. Grifith, who wants Guts to join the Falcons, wants to fight him. The winner must fulfill whatever the other party wants. Grifith wins the fight. From now on, Guts' life will be completely changed.

LET'S BROWSE CHARACTERS

Guts

Guts, I'd say he's one of the most powerful characters I've ever seen. A character who, despite all the hardships he's been through, can move on with his revenge no matter what. Guts hasn't had love since he was a little boy, so as the story progresses, he learns what love means, even falling in love. Sometimes he doesn't even understand why people care about him. So we're involved in this process and trying to understand the feelings guts is feeling.
(I'd say their friendship with Griffith will envy you.)

Griffith

The commander of Team Hawks is the handsome Griffth.Griffith is not loved by berserk viewers, but I would say he is one of my favorite characters in the Berserk series. Griffith's sole purpose is to run his own state, and there's no sacrifice he can't make for that purpose. Griffith's character also adds a different flavour to the series.

Casca

She's the only female commander of Team Hawks. He fights with Gutts all the time. Of course, that's because Guts doesn't understand women. We see Casca as a character who tried to stay strong under the burden of being a female commander in medieval times.She's a character who gets sympathy for being incredibly loyal to Griffith.

Result

Berserk has a different feel than any anime I've ever seen. You have a different sympathy for each character and you start empathizing with the characters in the events that happen. It's worth noting that Berserk is definitely an anime to be taken in the +18 category. I strongly suggest you watch it, and I'm sure it'll be an experience you won't regret.
