Basically, if we talk about the sales of these anime adaptations, manga has a very large section of the revenue for any kind of anime. Hence it is very necessary for a new manga volume so that they can promote their anime through that.

As most of the installments of the manga have already aired, there are no new manga volumes to promote. If we talk about some statistics in 2016 and 2017 when the Berserk Season 1 and season 2 were released respectively, it increased the sales of volume 38, 39, and 40 of the manga series. These volumes were basically covered in 2016, 2017, and 2018 anime episodes. The 2012 movie series adaptation of this manga also promoted volumes 36 and 37 of the manga.

Will There Be A Change In Berserk Season 3 Animation Style?

Berserk Season 3 Release Date

The second season of Berserk received very heavy criticism due to its animation style in 2016. The third season of the Anime has not been released yet and it’s been in production house for the past 3 years. The chances for the delay of season 3 could have been because of the negative reviews they got in 2016 regarding their animation style. They were criticized for lazy visuals and an underwhelming animation style. The fans of the series following the show from 1997 were very disappointed with the animation which might have demotivated the producers.

So there are chances that the animation for the third season might go back to their iconic animation style version that was in 1997. The first two seasons of 2016 basically used 3D computer graphics to create animation. This time they may use a detailed animation style with a 2D 3D hybrid. Although if you have watched the final season of season 2, you must have seen they used 2D animation at the end, which was very appreciated by the fans. So, there are chances they might use only 2D animation in the upcoming season or a 2D 3D hybrid.
