Amazon has restocked the Blu-ray edition of the original Berserk anime, but you will want to move quickly. Berserk sold out immediately on launch day back in March, and it has been sold out ever since--outside of a few restocks here and there that sold out within hours, if not minutes. Orders placed now will be delivered in about a week, so at least you won't need to wait too long to start watching the beloved 1997 anime adapted from Kentaro Miura's legendary manga.

You have an alternative option, too. A fresh printing of Berserk is available to preorder on the Crunchyroll Store. Like Amazon, the anime juggernaut sold out of its initial batch of Berserk Blu-rays, so we wouldn't be surprised to see it sell out again. Crunchyroll lists May 10 as the release date for the upcoming printing. At Crunchyroll, Berserk preorders are discounted by 20%, dropping the price from $60 to $45. However, you'll have to pay for shipping if your total order doesn't reach $75.

Berserk: The Complete 1997 TV Series on Blu-ray

$41.40 (was $60)

The 1997 anime has long been considered to be the best adaptation of Berserk thanks to its well-realized dark fantasy setting, unflinching brutality, and emotionally devastating moments.

Alongside all 25 episodes presented in high-definition, you can watch the series in either the original Japanese dub or the infamous English version. All extras from previous releases have been included, and the entire package is contained in a cover adorned with some eye-catching art. In case you've missed the manga or the anime, Berserk tells the tale of wandering swordsman Guts and his quest for revenge against the enigmatic Griffith, a godlike being.

Set in a world of swords, sorcery, and gruesome monsters, Berserk is a captivating tale of fate and destiny, heartbreak and betrayal. Created by the late Kentaro Miura and spanning decades of chapters, Berserk is often hailed as one of the anime series of all time thanks to its dark story and stunning animation. It's a show that you definitely don't want your kids to see, and while it does make some changes to the saga, it's still a faithful adaptation.

If you're looking for even more Berserk, check out the excellent deluxe editions of the original manga, which are beautifully oversized hardcover volumes that give this wonderful manga the premium treatment it deserves.
