 Berserk ( dark fantasy manga/ anime)

Any fans? I watched a bit of the old show as a kid and finally feel ready to dive back in.
If you are not familiar Berserk is a dark medieval fantasy manga that has been adapted into 2 anime shows and 3 films.
Just started the manga and the first scene literally is the main character banging a demon  It is a woman who turns into a demon with a classic "I've got you now" line to be specific but Guts being a total badass just shoves a gun it it's mouth. Probably shot its head off right as he busted a nut  Seriously though I can already tell this is going to be intense.
What made me want to get back into it is the intense dark fantasy plot, some really crazy demons and mythology stuff from the bit I know about it already.
Here are the first 3 pages of the manga:
--------------------
Don't worry about me, I've got all that I need. And I'm singing my song to the sky
You know how it feels, With the breeze of the sun in your eyes. Not minding that time's passing by
I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me
I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

I was almost going to watch the show but most people agree the manga is much superior as the movies and tv adaptions leave a lot out.
The plot seems so intense that I don't want to miss anything about the Godhands or any other crazy inter dimensional demons/ entities.

Damn it's even darker then I remembered... The story is very enthralling though, hopefully I can make it through all the gore.
Watching demons get tortured and brutally killed isn't as bad at least but damn is this a gruesome manga

it's pretty great you can watch all the old episodes for free or the new ones for like five bucks a month
attack on titan and berserk should come back fairly soon berserk by the end of the month/season
i meant to say that on t.v. they showed the nudity and they edited it out later, kids think it's a cartoon or whatever lol

Once I read through the manga I will probably check out the older anime and or some of the movies.
I have heard the newer anime is pretty fail in a lot of ways so far but last I checked it was only partway through so maybe it will get better 
Anime without nudity is just wrong
