Berserk
On WOWOW Prime
A relentless, grotesque dark fantasy following a traumatized swordsman's endless cycle of violence and suffering against supernatural horrors.
Spurred by the flame raging in his heart, the Black Swordsman Guts continues his seemingly endless quest for revenge. Standing in his path are heinous outlaws, delusional evil spirits, and a devout child of god. Even as it chips away at his life, Guts continues to fight his enemies, who wield repulsive and inhumane power, with nary but his body and sword—his strength as a human.
