    Looking at the Greek mythology anime Pygmalio, one would not expect that it was the inspiration for Berserk. According to Crunchyroll, Guts' iconic sword was inspired by Pygmalio. The main character, Kurt, wields a sword as large as his whole torso. It is quite similar to Guts' iconic sword.

    This 39-episode drama is nothing short of heritage, but it still has its own values. It follows the journey of a standard hero but is made based on the young protagonist, Kurt, whose father is forced into slavery by an evil spirit. The evil in question is Medusa, Gorgon in Greek mythology. This makes Kurt a symbolic role model like the Greek hero Perseus.
