Sony Movie Channel Late Night Anime
Eagle-eyed AUKN users have sent us information about anime on the Sony Movie Channel. Next week Tuesday, September 10th sees the channel show Berserk – Battle of Doldrey at 00:55 and 01:55.
Synopsis
The saga follows Guts a strong mercenary with a huge sword and little direction in life. All of that changes after he meets Griffith, leader of a group of mercenaries named Band of the Hawk who are working for the Kingdom of Midland. Guts decides to throw his lot in with them and finds himself developing a deep relationship with Griffith but also finds that Casca, a commander in the Band of the Hawk, is jealous that Griffith returns his feelings. The two find themselves swept along in Griffith’s rise to power.
The second film focusses on a pivotal point in the war between Midland and Chuder as the Band of the Hawk launch an epic battle to seize Doldrey Castle, a place thought impregnable and home to an elite band of knights in the service of the Chuder Empire.
It had been flagged up in a previous post about Studio Ghibli on Film4 but due to hectic work schedules it remained unreported. Thanks go out to David for the news tip. Apologies for the late posting.
