Full Answer
Will Berserk ever get a proper anime adaptation? In this era of anime tropes it is highly unlikely that it would get a "proper" adaptation (the proper here being in my eyes, at least).
We can safely conclude that despite having long gaps between releases, the author does regularly work on it, so even though it may take 10/15/20 more years with this kind of schedule, Berserk will eventually finish.
The 97 Berserk anime is great. After that go read the manga, from beginning on. 97 is good overall but if you want peak Beserk then read the manga. Not the 2016 version. If you can find the 97 version watch that, if not then read the manga. Depends. How much do you make an hour? 1997 anime of Beserk is excellent.
Notable Moments:
In a long and very thoughtful explanation from people at Hakusensha, the manga's publisher, it's clear that the Berserk manga will continue on via Studio Gaga and Kouji Mori, the latter being a childhood friend of Miura.
Following Kentaro Miura's passing in 2021, many Berserk fans thought that the manga would never reach its conclusion. But the series is back.
Despite the death of Kentaro Miura on May 20, 2022, Berserk will not remain unfinished. The author's masterpiece, one of the most influential seinen in history, will be resumed soon by Kouji Mori, mangaka and close friend of Kentaro Miura.
Henceforth, the manga will have the following credits: “Original work by Kentarou Miura, manga by Studio Gaga, supervised by Kouji Mori.” The final volume of Berserk completed by Miura will be published in English by Dark Horse in November.
"A New Beginning" was the announcement that Berserk would be getting an exhibit within a museum in Japan, with a crowd funding effort starting in a bid to create a life sized statue of the villain of Nosferatu Zodd and fans are taking to social media to express their frustration!

Berserk, the legendary dark fantasy manga from the late Kentaro Miura, will finally come to an end for U.S. readers. Volume 41, the final installment Miura finished before his untimely passing last summer, is set for a November release date.
After 30-plus years and more than 3.5 million copies sold, Kentaro Miura's work on the beloved horror-fantasy manga comes to an end with Berserk Volume 41. Dark Horse Manga presents this final volume by Miura-sensei in English for the first time in trade paperback with a two-sided color poster insert.
Berserk's posthumous 364th chapter is likely the end of the late Kentaro Miura's epic manga series, but it promises hope in a world full of suffering.
Miura's close friend, Kouji Mori – the only person he told Berserk's story to from start to finish – will take over the series and write only what Miura told him without any supplementary or filler stories.
