The manga inspired an anime series in 1997, as well as a trilogy of anime films from 2012 to 2013. Another anime series aired in Japan in July 2016, followed by the second half in April 2017.

The plot of the story centres on the characters of Guts, a lone mercenary, and Griffith, the leader of a mercenary band called the “Band of the Hawk”. Berserk examines different themes like fate, human relations, morality, and betrayal. 

It also portrays the characters in different lights and the struggle within themselves to be good humans or become evil. These complex scenes and characters that are shown by the creator are what makes the manga a page-turning material.
