Nosferatu Zodd’s appearance here is way cooler than it was on the show iirc; also having now seen flesh + blood it’s nice seeing the influence/nods to that film in the character design. Face-to-face with the Black Swordsman at last, the Count reveals his true form, and even Guts' super-sized sword may not be big enough to contend with this demonic monstrosity! saw the release of yet another video game adaptation entitled Berserk Millennium Falcon Arc: Chapter of the Record of the Holy Demon War.

When he was in middle school in 1979, Miura's drawing techniques improved greatly as he started using professional drawing techniques.
