I Recommend BERSERK to Everyone, Especially Those Who Don't Like Anime (EN / PT)
Source
Berserk is a masterpiece from the world of anime that deserves special attention, even for those who don't consider themselves ardent fans of this genre. I'm not much of an anime fan myself, but this anime stands out for its captivating narrative and relentless action, which makes it an unmissable experience, especially if you enjoy plots full of wars and epic confrontations, free of excesses and unnecessary dialog like I do.
I didn't get to see it in its heyday, I'm only 20 and, to my surprise and that of the people I tell, I discovered Berserk through a SuicideBoys song. It's an AMV showing the scene with just the music in the background. At first, I was under the impression that it was just a tale about a demon hunter, but as I researched further, I discovered that this was just the tip of the iceberg. The true depth of this narrative unfolds in the Golden Age Arc, in which it is my favorite.

In my opinion, this scene went very well with the song.
In this arc, we are transported to a bleak setting where the Kingdom of Midland and the Tudor Empire clash in a brutal war that spans almost a century. It's a world where the law of the sword prevails and life is cheap and replaceable. The story comes to life with Guts, a lone swordsman whose combat skills catch the eye of the mercenary leader Griffith (Bloody Griffith). Their decisive encounter comes after the defeat of the formidable Bazuso during the siege of a fortress held by the Falcons. The epic battle that follows results in Guts being recruited into the Falcon Gang, led by Griffith, who triumphs over Guts. However, Berserk isn't just about bloody confrontations and war strategies. The story plunges into a deep darkness with the introduction of the Apostles, who curiously use this name in a context that differs drastically from the traditional meaning attached to the Apostles in the Bible.
The Apostles are monstrous creatures, each with terrible powers obtained through dark pacts that demand a horrendous price. They are the embodiment of evil, and their presence adds a layer of horror to Berserk's already dark plot. Berserk is an anime that stands out not only for its exceptional action scenes and well-choreographed fights, but also for the depth of its characters and the complexity of its narrative. It's an immersive journey into a ruthless world where survival is the only priority. So if you enjoy anime that explores the dark nature of humanity and leaves you longing for the next episode, Berserk is a work that deserves your attention. At the age of 20, I can say that this is one of the most exciting and intense experiences I've ever had in front of the screen. So don't hesitate to embark on this dark and exciting journey with Guts and his companions.
You won't be disappointed.

Berserk é uma obra-prima do mundo dos animes que merece atenção especial, mesmo para aqueles que não se consideram fãs ardentes desse gênero. Eu mesmo não sou muito fã de animes, mas este anime destaca-se por sua narrativa cativante e ação implacável, o que o torna uma experiência imperdível, especialmente se você aprecia enredos repletos de guerras e confrontos épicos, livres de excessos e diálogos desnecessários como eu.
Eu não conheci isso em seu tempo de glória, tenho apenas 20 anos e, para minha surpresa e das pessoas que conto isso, descobri Berserk por meio de uma música dos SuicideBoys. Trata-se de um AMV mostrando a cena apenas com a música de fundo. A princípio, eu tinha a impressão de que se tratava apenas de um conto sobre um caçador de demônios, mas ao aprofundar minha pesquisa, descobri que isso era apenas a ponta do iceberg. A verdadeira profundidade dessa narrativa se desenrola no Arco da Era de Ouro, no qual é o meu favorito.

Essa cena na minha opinião combinou muito com a música.
Nesse arco, somos transportados para um cenário sombrio onde o Reino de Midland e o Império Tudor se enfrentam em uma guerra brutal que se estende por quase um século. É um mundo onde a lei da espada prevalece e a vida é barata e substituível. A história ganha vida com Guts, um espadachim solitário cujas habilidades de combate chamam a atenção do líder mercenário Griffith (O maldito Griffith). O encontro decisivo entre eles ocorre após a derrota do formidável Bazuso durante o cerco de uma fortaleza mantida pelos Falcon. A batalha épica que se segue resulta na recruta de Guts no Bando do Falcão, liderado por Griffith, que triunfa sobre Guts. No entanto, Berserk não se limita apenas a confrontos sangrentos e estratégias de guerra. A história mergulha em uma escuridão profunda com a introdução dos Apóstolos, que curiosamente usam esse nome em um contexto que difere drasticamente do significado tradicional ligado aos Apóstolos da Bíblia.
Os Apóstolos são criaturas monstruosas, cada uma com poderes terríveis obtidos através de pactos sombrios que exigem um preço horrendo. Eles são a personificação do mal, e sua presença adiciona uma camada de horror à trama já sombria de Berserk. Berserk é um anime que se destaca não apenas por suas cenas de ação excepcionais e lutas bem coreografadas, mas também pela profundidade de seus personagens e a complexidade de sua narrativa. É uma jornada imersiva em um mundo implacável, onde a sobrevivência é a única prioridade. Portanto, se você aprecia animes que exploram a natureza sombria da humanidade e o deixam ansioso pelo próximo episódio, Berserk é uma obra que merece sua atenção. Aos 20 anos, posso afirmar que essa é uma das experiências mais emocionantes e intensas que já tive diante da tela. Portanto, não hesite em embarcar nesta jornada sombria e emocionante com Guts e seus companheiros.
Você não ficará desapontado.

I understand that the Berserk manga is one of the best ever created, pity about the author's death, although supposedly his assistant is going to finish his work with everything the creator left, let's see how it ends.
As for the anime I've seen that it has several adaptations and only the old one is decent, the new ones have a CGI that is quite ugly.
I also prefer the old one, the current one seems too embellished, I've also seen the movie which summarizes the story a bit.

.I have never seen Berserk, I think the whole thing about it being an unfinished story and very unlikely to get a good ending has kept me from getting the chance to see it, but just as you write about this anime, I have read other times about this story that it has a lot of fans.
I will watch the anime and get into the manga, I'm sure I won't be disappointed.
Although its continuation is uncertain, and may not follow the creator's ideas. I highly recommend the first ones and especially the Golden Age, you can understand the plot well.
How curious that you came to this anime because of an AMV, this format usually brings us closer to particular anime because we usually see good scenes and maybe this was the example.
I watched this anime many years ago and it certainly made a difference, it is a cult anime worth watching.
Thanks for sharing. Regards!
Hehe, strangely I found it as an AMV, at first I thought it was a simple background animation, however I watched others and looked for more about Berserk. Thanks for your comment.

.Literally, highly recommended. In fact, anyone who doesn't like the anime should read the novel.
