They are both done by Susumu Hirasawa who can do no wrong. Just listen to Forces, Behelit or the perfect theme for when the eclipse starts... Monster. There are many more gold tracks from that OST but those stick out to me. Also how could you not like put your grasses on

I couldn't disagree more with your musical assessment of these movies. The music from the trilogy is just 100% vastly superior to the 97 show the only songs from 97 that holds up somewhat are guts theme and behelit but they sound repetitive after awhile because those songs are mood music. They are great songs for setting the mood of the characters and scene but they aren't songs people can just listen to. The music from the 97 show sounds very computerized and doesn't really fit the dark age setting of the berserk universe
Meanwhile the music of the trilogy and the terrible 2016 show is music that actually makes your spirit move because they are more orchestral and thus they are more listenable and they manage to capture a mood and better fit the setting.
As for the art the 97 show holds up much better but it's just too dated and the backgrounds are too static and then there is the blurred coloring and lack of detail when compared to the trilogy. Even the sound effects are better in the trilogy.
