Synopsis:
Guts returns to help the fugitive remnant of the Band of the Hawk rescue Griffith.

Impressions:
I thought I was out of my mind for going back to the Eclipse, but here I am. If you don't know what you're getting into, well, you have my sympathies. For Berserk veterans, however, you know what's coming. I will say that if you want to see all the horror of the Eclipse in more brutal detail, here you go. If you don't want to subject yourself to such sights, I'd say avoid it, but on its merits, for what it is, I'll have to say it's worth watching. It does deliver more punch than the previous two entries and that deserves some credit. Also, for people who thought the ending of the '97 series was too abrupt, this will give you a little more to chew on.

Rating:
Watch It (or 50/50 depending on how you can stomach the content of the Eclipse)
