Berserk Episode 6 - "Zodd The Immortal"
First Aired: Wednesday November 12, 1997
Synopsis
This episode is amongst the most intense and exciting episodes of Berserk. It opens during the end of a battle by the Hawks when word comes that the Hawks' Raiders are being slaughtered by a single man in the keep. The mercenaries worry that it is Nosferatu Zodd and Guts goes in to investigate against his men's wishes.
As Guts travels deeper into the castle he sees piles of bodies, obviously slaughtered by the amount of blood visible. Finally Guts meets the single swordsman doing all the damage - it is in fact Nosferatu Zodd! A vicious exchange of blows ends with Zodd's sword broken, and Guts' sword deep in the chest of his enemy. Things suddenly turn for the worse when Zodd pulls it out and transforms into a giant demon with horns and claws.
The transformed Zodd easily overpowers the dumbfounded Guts. Just when Guts is about to be torn to pieces, Griffith appears with reinforcements. While Griffith moves to help Guts the reinforcements are slaughtered by Zodd, who quickly blocks Griffith and Guts escape. Griffith and Guts split up and perform a devastating attack on Zodd, slicing off an arm and damaging the other. These attacks really have no effect on Zodd and he again overpowers the duo. Finally Zodd sees Griffith's behelit, and just before leaving foretells Guts' fate.
