Berserk season 2 coming?
Rebs:
And therein lies the problem.
Although I don't reveal any serious plot details here, I would hate to spiol anything for anyone, so just incase:
(click to show/hide)The rest of the manga is a stretch, dragging along the Guts character. It's surely not supirior if equivalent to the first part of the manga. One might expect similar if not less of a continuation of the anime.
The choice is whether to risk getting more Berserk anime that might waterdown the impression made prior, or just let it be and sabor the impression. (A Binary Choice.)
This is how I feel about it.
Humanoidz:
I think another anime will do well. Fans will want something while waiting for Muira to do the next manga chapter.
costi:
Well, while there are 20 more volumes after the ending of the anime, they can be fairly well compressed when animated - some chapters are just one, long fight, presented from different angles and in large panels. In an anime these wouldn't probably take much screentime, plus some stuff can be dropped to streamline the story, without losing the plot.
The problem is, the manga is still unfinished, and it doesn't exactly seem to be ending soon.
Decado1:
Personally I wouldn't mind seeing a looser adaption until the manga is finished (then they can do the whole thing). Take it in a different direction, keep the key characters, the setting and the brutality. A talented writer could do a lot with it. One would think there anime writers/directors in Japan capable of doing more than just adapting a manga.

Yeah, that was my issue. The end of the second arc is a natural stopping point for a series, if really open ended, where stopping during the remaining 20 volumes now isn't quite as definitive. It'd probably have to take more than one additional season to finish it, and as you've said, the series as a whole isn't likely to end anytime soon.
