A/N: Here's the opening for the Vengeance arc, whose song is the English dubbed version of Inferno, the first of the openings for the 2016 Berserk anime series,. The original song is by the band, 9mm Parabellum Bullet, while the dub is created by David Toth, and sung by Will Stetson.


(The opening shows Puck flying past the screen, as he flew up, while the screen scrolled after him, showing the static images of the members of both Richard's and Guts's party, in various poses, with Richard and Guts on the topmost part, facing each other, with their blades crossed above each other, before it then transitioned to a sepia photo of the former Band of the Hawk, as the screen scrolled up, while the photo began to burn into ashes wherever the screen followed.)

Until the end I will burn and repent

That one day this night, this pitiful life can end

(Guts swings the Dragon Slayer around, as it was wreathed in flames, with the camera following the blade itself, before it then swiped across the screen to show Richard swinging his blades, before he then jumped back, and fired a burst of flames that engulfed the screen for the moment, before they disappeared to show Richard and Guts walking together through the dark night, with their blades held behind their backs, as the screen moved up to show the bright full moon, as the title of the series appear, before the word 'Vengeance' appeared below it in the Berserk title font.)

I need only close my eyes for the darkness to crawl as I laugh into the bitter night.

(Gus was kneeling down on the ground, with his blade resting on his shoulder, in the dark knight, as his head was turned to the ground, while the camera zoomed out from the blade itself, as he was inside a large puddle of water, before the camera then changed to the surface of the water puddle, as Gus raised his head slightly to look at the sky, as the puddle rippled.)

Though we try there's no escape, from the writhing hands of fate,

As the moon, and the sun, eclipse and join and as one.

(The next scene showed the hoof-beats of the horses, before it then raised up to reveal that it was Gunter, and his division of mounted knights, with Richard, Guts, Casca and Judeau in tow, as they were bearing determined expressions, before it then shifted to show Gunter's roaring expression. The scene then changed to a scene where Richard watched the scene between Griffith and Princess Charlotte at the time of the grand ball, before then showing Casca watching as Guts walked away down the steps, with a grim expression on his face.)

I will carry this blade to my grave

So I will never forget where I came

(The scene shifted to a campfire, where everyone minus Guts and Richard, located on the side of a large hill, as Reimu gazed into the distance, while the others were chatting amongst each other, before it then showed Reimu's concerned expression, as her eyes reflected the pillar of light Richard created, in them.)

Ah… I'll fight again and always will guard their lives

(The scene then shifted to Richard and Guts, as they both raised their blades, while Guts roared, as the orange glow of the Eclipse was behind them, as the camera moved up to follow along the tip of the blades, as the scene then faded to show a crucified and near-naked Griffith, whose body was ravaged with whip-marks and bruises, as his eyes glowed in the dim scene. As the guitar riff starts, a series of short scenes flash by in this order: Richard and Griffith striking each other and drawing blood, Griffith being smashed into a pillar by Zodd's tail, Velouria standing atop a pile of corpses with a dark expression of disdain, Link striking down General Boscogn, the Crimson Behelit awakened, as blood dripped from its eyes and down from its body. The final scene showed Guts falling into the dark abyss below, before it then zoomed out to reveal that it was Griffith's eye, as he was clinging to the side on the giant hand made of the tormented faces, with his other arm out to try to reach for Guts.)

Until we're free let me shatter and bleed

And pierce at my heart, and tear me apart

(The scene changed to a horrified Elma, as she watched blood spray down onto her, as it splashed down her and covered the screen, before the screen then moved to show that it was a waterfall of blood, with mutilated corpses inside of it, before Corrin broke through it with a furious expression, as the camera then showed her fate, as she raised her weapon, before she then slashed through the demons with a strike each.)

Biting at fate I will walk all the same,

Down on my last breath I'll rise up again

(The screen showed the dead officers of the Band of the Hawk, as the torn souls of the mercenaries under their command, were slipping down towards the bottom of the screen, which scrolled down to show that they were being absorbed through the back of a being of white spiritual light, that resembled Richard, as black tears ran down where the eyes would have been. The scene then changes to the various members of Richard's group tearing through the gathered demons, as they were destroyed in various ways.)

Crossing through the long night, laughing 'till my soul rends

Until the end I will burn and repent

(Femto is standing right in front of the screen, his blood-red eyes glaring down in condescension, as the screen then moves to show the God Hand above him, as they were slightly shadowed by the Eclipse behind them. The scene then shows the darkness-infused Richard, as he roared with a expression of rage, slashed through the demons with great force, before he then leapt towards Femto, as the scene froze for a moment.)

(The scene then changes to Guts standing on the battlefield, as he swung his blade out, before the scene briefly changed to the two groups inside Godo's cave hideout, as they were conversing with each other, before Guts was replaced by Link, who was thrusting and swinging his sword and shield around, before it then showed a picture of Guts and Richard meeting the Skull Knight in the foggy forest. The scene then shifted back to Richard smirking, before it then zoomed out, showing Richard lifting his right hand, which began to glow golden, before a series of pictures appeared in rapid succession, at this order: The parade in Windham for the Band of the Hawks, the escape from Windham with the wagon containing Griffith, Vargas and the groups parting, the sunrise over Richard and Guts who were exhausted after cutting through many enemies, Mozgus and the disguised Richard facing off, Meiling facing Grunbeld in the burning Spirit Tree Forest, and the final picture of Richard and Guts facing each other, as their friends were shown in fragmented sections on the respective sides.)
