The long-running Manga that married fantasy and violence is returning to the small screen. According to ComicBook.com, the original 25 episodes of the 1997 series will be available on the streaming service on December 1st.

The trailer shows that Berserk is a dark and brutal animation that came eight years after the Manga first appeared. The Golden Age Arc is the period when Guts joined the Band of the Hawk and met the other primary characters. It's considered by some fans to be the best take on the Manga, and is said to have inspired or influenced major hits like Attack on Titan.

When it was announced that the streaming service had secured the rights to the Berserk franchise, it seemed like a foregone conclusion. There is a clock on Berserk's official website that points to a date in December. It looks like things are going well for fans of the franchise.
