Azan's Return

Post by **Eldo** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 9:15 pm

Why do you think Azan return? For what purpose? What do you think Muira has in store for him.

my guess to get Farneze back

although we know that she joined Guts, i think the way she left (abducted by Guts) may be a reason to Azan think that he needs to rescue her

I don't think he'll try any rescuing, although he might guard Gats' followers a bit while Gats goes berserk.

I do think there is one main reason to bring him back: He's too good a character to loose, and so he's here to kick demon butt, that's probably it.

However, knowing Miura, he's probably got some weird plan up his sleave, which we can't even begin guessing at.

this is vague, but maybe he has some important info on something

Post by **Dark_Zilo** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 9:52 pm

just to see him kick apostles ass is reason enough for me

Didnt the Church that Farneze used to belong to believe that the white hawk was there savior. Well maybe Azan still believs that and is following and/or looking for grifith, who everyone believes is the white hawk..

It's possible, but I doubt it

Didn't they mention that Azan joined the Knights of the Holy Iron Chains as more of matter of serving as a knight, rather than because of religious reasons? (Come to think of it, did anyone join the Knights for religious reasons? Possibly Farneze?) I'll try to find the page.

well if all he cares about is being a knight. Maybe he joined the Hawks purley for that purpose. I mean dont locus and Grunbeld consider themselves kniights

Um, he hasn't joined the Neo Band of the Hawk.

Well thats what im sayin as kinda a theory. Maybe he did. Not Knowing of there true evil.

My only fear is that he has returned simply to be killed off trying to defend the town. (Assuming that's what the vision meant...Which brings up the question of who is attacking the town and for what purpose etc.)

Live, Azan! You must live!

bleh, don't really care much bout azan

i jus want luca, the hooker with a heart, back

Post by **raziel** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 6:26 am

Azan's cool. The very fact the black swordsman respects him should make him someone to be reckoned with.

i also liked how he called a fair one on one fight with gutts, even tho gutts tried to take out farnaze

Post by **Dark_Zilo** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 7:28 am

Azan has some role in the events to come for sure
also he is probably the most respected character of Berserk so i hope his part is at least good

Post by **dos.azn** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 5:08 am

most respected? hell no, id say luca

Post by **Buzkashi** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 5:14 am

i second that , but a character i want to see return is jill

Post by **Starnum** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 5:15 am

That's very unlikely though. I wouldn't mind seeing the return of Luca too!

Post by **Exizil** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 5:18 am

Hmmm, thats an interesting question. I have this nagging feeling that I missed something important that hints to why he's there.

However, it seems to me him comming to take Farneze back may be the best possible explantion for now. I also wonder why this event was put into the story now... is it becuase there is something major to come from this? Or is it simply to make the readers want for Gatts to get to Elfhelm all that much greater.

Maybe he came to arrest farneze for heresy or sideing with the enemy

I don't know, if I recall, Farnese already told Azan she'll follow the Black Swordsman. So there's really no need for Azan to 'rescue her'.

Maybe he came to arrest farneze for heresy or sideing with the enemy

Have to disagree with that. Azan would have probably brought a whole army with him. And he wouldn't be starving and sleeping on the streets, he would have going around using taxpayer's money.

Azan's probably just a side story that will eventually join in the main scenario in the next 5 chapters. The fact that a skilled fighter is reintroduced means that Muira is expecting something GREAT....probably a massive battle or something...

Yeah, I pretty much agree with Eldo.
