Since the passing of Berserk creator Kentaro Miura in 2021, the manga has continued on from his former assistants at Studio Gaga and under the watchful eyes of long-time friend Kouji Mori. The Golden Age arc film series was remastered as the Berserk: The Golden Age Arc – Memorial Edition TV anime, which aired from October 2 to December 25, 2022 and streamed on Crunchyroll, which describes the series as such:

 

When lone swordsman Guts is defeated in a duel by Griffith, ambitious leader of the Band of the Hawk mercenaries, he now must fight for him. Distrustful of all at first, through hard-fought battles, he soon begins to bond with his new comrades and their leader. As they rise in rank to a full-fledged army, he begins to harbor doubts about a life lived by the blade, unaware a dreadful fate awaits.
