Netflix now has access to one of the top anime shows. Users in 25 nations, including Brazil and India, may now watch the 1997 adaptation of Berserk on the streaming site and enjoy the gorgeously brutal horror animation.
Berserk is based on the anime character Guts, a mercenary who is always eager for a new fight. He joins the Band of the Hawk, a gang of other swords-for-hire, to begin the anime series, and the plot revolves around his rising through their ranks and waging war against supernatural demons.
