Berserk: The Golden Age Arc delivers a heartwarming tribute to the late creator of the manga in its season finale of the Memorial Edition, closing the curtains on the year 2022 on a high note. I’ve always wondered why the series was called Berserk, to begin with, and I’m so glad I watched this memorial edition because I think I’ve found the answer. Like any anime out there that doesn’t begin with its usual opening credits can only mean one thing, this specific episode is about to be epic on a massive scale and that’s exactly what was executed in this finale.
