Translation Notes

Spoiler:

• A more natural sounding translation for "苦渋の眼差し" would be something like "A Pained Look" or "A Look of Anguish."

• "新生鷹の団" was officially translated as "The Reborn Band of the Hawk" in the "Berserk Official Guidebook" as opposed to "The Band of the Hawk Reborn," but ultimately the two translations are synonymous.

• "不死〜ノスフェラトゥ〜" would translate to "Immortal 〜Nosferatu〜." However, this is likely just to clarify that the word "Immortal" is meant to be read as "Nosferatu" since in the manga the furigana for "不死" is "ノスフェラトゥ〜."

• I believe that "黒い猟犬" should be "The Black Hound" as opposed to "The Black Hounds." This BGM plays during the the event scene "Wyald's Demonic Release" where Wyald transforms into his apostle form. The translator was probably under the impression that the title was referring to the Black Dog Knights ("黒犬騎士団") as a whole rather than just Wyald, but based on the context it seems evident that the title is referring to Wyald specifically.

• "異形の足音" would be closer to "The Strange/Grotesque Footsteps."

• "The World of Dead" should be "The World of the Dead."

• "髑髏" would literally translate to "Skull" not "Skeleton." However, this translation is consistent with the one used by Dark Horse Comics as "髑髏の騎士" was officially translated as the rather awkward sounding “Knight of Skeleton,” rather than the more accurate and commonly used "Skull Knight." However, in contrast to the manga, "髑髏の騎士" was correctly translated as "Skull Knight" in both the film trilogy and 2016 anime series.
