Its worse in my opinion.
I don't recall any Lost Children from Season 1. And the Millennium Falcon arc is better than the Tower of Conviction storyline ;-)

Smoke crack and go to sleep instead of watching this.

This looks really bad.
20 FPS.
Wait a minute. Is it me or does something look really strange with the cannon arm? It looks like it's made of lego or something. Why does that hole just suddenly appear out of thin air?

I've liked this season much more than season one.

**Sigh** I love Berserk I wish they would get a proper studio and budget to do the Manga justice but I don't know if it'll happen ever lol. The new anime season looks as bad as people say it does but it is an improvement in "quality" from season 1. Its still watchable to me.
I could be talking out of desperation to like it but meh I say give it watch. Even though it could be way better and despite its flaws and pacing I'll keep watching. Gotta do something to keep busy until the next manga is available ...in like 10 years -_-

To be fair - it's kinda the same in the manga. The berserker armor covers the entire hand and just ...kinda vanishes... in that spot when Guts uses the cannon. In one panel you see the armor covering the hand, in the next panel you can see the tip of the barrel. Of course the animation could have been better, but the anime isn't wrong per se in that scene.
EDIT:
panel in question

This is animated worse than Team America...
Jesus fucking Christ.
do they have no SHAME
It's almost like scene direction and pacing matters more than graphics. /s
More brilliant running animation.
This is absolutely unacceptable and if anyone argues to the contrary, you're just wrong.
Even fucking South Park can depict movement and perspective better with this kind of camera angle.

Grunbeld turning into a dragon is hype as fuck in the manga...here...uggghhh...fuck it...This fucking show is better off ripping the assets straight out of Bloodborne. Watcher of the Old Lords is way more accurate of a representation for Guts' inner demon than what's in here. I'm only on 10 minutes of this, this is painful...

I don't understand how they could possibly fuck up something as simple as a bunch of people running away. But here is proof that no matter how bad I think the quality of this adaptation is, it can and will get worse. Seriously, why are they just running in place without moving forwards? It can't possibly be that hard to do, can it?
Fucking hell

You know...like even Ed motherfucking Wood could find an accurate sound clip of a crow cawing. "We don't have the budget or time to animate all these faces, so let's just shroud them in shadow!!!" Did they pull that alligator out of Resident Evil 2? These fucks couldn't even animate that elephant demon falling properly.
That's a decent crow cawing.
Oh wait, that's once again from PS1 MediEvil.
Here's this anime's idea of what a crow sounds like.

Does anybody know if Miura even knows about this damn thing? Like has he seen it or just writes "The new season is airing" on the manga covers due to paycheck or something. Cause this anime is quite frankly dog shit and he must know it.
Ahahaha
As far as I know, the only thing he's said about it is that he was watching it every week with excitement. That's it. He made no compliment on the quality or said if he likes it. The fact that he did not praise it tells me that he has no praise to give it. I could be wrong and he could in fact think highly of it, but we have no evidence of that.
I'm pretty sure he played a very small role with this anime. He wrote episode 3 of the 2016 season but he had almost nothing to do with the rest of the show.

What did he do to deserve watching this shit on a weekly basis? Maybe it's a clause in his contract.

He should be allowed to denounce and repudiate this thing. I've watched this show butcher two of my favorite Berserk moments so far, it just hurts.
This post from Reddit mentions this. Basically, Japanese culture in general is big on showing respect to others, and it's incredibly rare to hear a mangaka saying anything negative about an adaptation. Akira Toriyama is notorious for answering questions about Dragon Ball adaptations the same way. He basically always says "I hope you enjoy this adaptation" and gives no comment whatsoever on the work itself.

So there is no Mangaka like Alan Moore?

The 2D sprite that ScrewAttack uses for Guts is better than the 3D model for Guts in the anime, more emotive too.

I think it took me 45 minutes to finish the episode. I normally watch it while I'm eating so I'm not focused 100% on it, but this time I didn't. I actually sat down and tried to focus on it. Not eating a plate of eggs or a veggie burger while watching it really made the mediocrity on display painful. I just took breaks and my mind wandered while watching it.
