Berserk: The Golden Age Arc

 * I have chosen this article to evaluate because it was ranked as C-class, the class listed as the type of article wanted for student-training evaluation exercises on Wikipedia. Also one of my main areas of interest is anime/manga, and immediately seeing upon clicking the page that there are no images, I thought I should look into the article.

Lead
The lead is sufficient in putting dates on the releases of the Golden Age Arc releases (which are a little superfluous given their reappearance in the article and therefore should not take up most of the lead), as well as mentioning some notable voice cast members both in English and Japanese (which could/should have been reserved for a currently nonexistent cast/character section in the article), but provides no hint for plot as most articles do. There are no descriptions of the article's major sections and has a somewhat uneven representation of the content, as said before with the lack of plot summary and an over-representation of release dates.

Content
The article's content is somewhat unbalanced, with no list for characters (and/or a list for voice actors which is standard for manga/anime articles), with a surprisingly large section for details on 'Home Media.' Plot summaries in the content section are good length-wise, but are a little convoluted. The content for the Golden Age Arc films has been completed for a while now, so the content seems up-to-date. Again, characters/a full cast list is not included. Additionally, since the series is comprised of three movies, there could have been separate pages made for the films that go more in-depth into each film's content. The article mentions Viz Media licensing the films, but there is no mention of it being distributed by Netflix (which it is currently).

Tone and Balance
Balance is fine, the article is neutral, and the article presents information in an impartial way. There is no bias or overrepresentation of views (only information, as said before in the evaluation).

Sources and References
The links I checked still work. The sources are thorough, and current, and most of the sources are reliable.

Organization
Organization is sufficient. However, under the section titled 'Films' the article includes not only a list of the films, but full-on plot summaries for them when those could have been reserved for a section of their own. Plot summary is somewhat difficult to read and difficult to understand without descriptions of the characters, basically assuming that the reader already knows the characters, their importance, relationships to each other, the plot, etc. The writing feels a little underdeveloped (simplistic but difficult to read?) as well.

Images and Media
There are no visuals or media present in this article.

Checking the talk page
Most of the conversations are talks of things that could be added, two of the messages mention inaccuracies in the article. The article is part of WikiProjects for Horror, Anime and Manga, Film, and WikiProject Japan / Cinema

Overall impressions
Article is impartial and plot summary is good in terms of length and having no bias, but the article overall is incomplete. A beneficial addition would be a list of characters with their voice actors, a brief description of their roles/relations to each other and the plot, etc. The article is probably 75% complete, just somewhat underdeveloped.. There are also no images of movie posters to represent the film which should be one of the basic things a page has.
