The animation was just as bad, as the characters didn't move smoothly and felt clunky overall. People complained about Sailor Moon Crystal's use of CG, but even that was leagues better than any of the visuals I saw in Berserk. The visuals are jarring at best and flat out disgusting at worst. I decided to watch Berserk 2016, and oh my God, what did I just watch? Let me start with the elephant in the room: the visuals. In the future, they should definitely wait until they have enough money to get a quality animator. Thats how good the berserk story line is. Anyway, like stated above, it still follows the books as best it can so by virtue of having a good manga, this one still gets a rating of 7 from me which makes it better than average overall. If younger folks watch this without seeing the originals they will disregard the entire franchise from here on. Now imagine if those cut scenes were the focus of the games and you will have a good idea of what this anime is like. We also had similar quality in cut scenes back in the N64/PS2 days. Just how bad is the animation? Well, it reminds me a bit of 15-20 year old kids cartoons. Luckily the story remains somewhat true to the books so it was able to hold my attention but just barely as every time a character opened their mouth you lose focus on the story as immersion is completely broken. The long awaited continuation of one of the most acclaimed animes of all time is hard to watch due to atrociously bad CGI/animation, angles, and worse editing.
