I don’t know if this has been shared or not, but I thought it was cool. Urasawa, by his own admission, loves Stephen King, to the point he said he might not have become a manga artist without King.
Hail to the King, baby.
The editing and music are premium classic Toonami, but Peter Cullen’s excellent narration does an incredible job of pushing it over the top. Rest in peace.
Between the iron gates of fate
The seeds of time were sown
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known
Knowledge is a deadly friend
If no one sets the rules
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools
Yep. Yep. Mmm Hmm. Yep. :)
My favorite OVA series, and my favorite Otomo film.
But I’m now a proud owner of this beautiful masterpiece of a TV show. If I’m being honest, this release of Berserk 97 easily eclipses (ba dum tiss) The Castle of Cagliostro as my favorite release Discotek has ever done; all the extra features on this set are just top notch, simply top notch.

And it most certainly will not be the last. They packaged this film with such care, I will absolutely buy from them again.
I’m really happy I made “Arcadia of my Youth” my first purchase, especially after hearing rumors about this film going out of print soon; I didn’t want to make the mistake of waiting too long like I did with “Beautiful Dreamer” (PLEASE re-release “Beautiful Dreamer” Discotek, I’m BEGGING you).
Plus, I’m happy to own one of my favorite movies of all time, now that it’s not streaming anywhere.
Blu-rays are forever, and so are the classics.
My favorite Lupin series, and a very strong contender for my favorite TV show in general of the 70’s.
Now if Discotek would get around to releasing Part II on Blu-ray, that’d be great.
My copy finally arrived from Japan today. I’m so happy too, I’ve wanted to own this for a long time; one of my favorite movies of all time.
