eldo,
your comments on guts and SK and the indefinate length to berserk made me speculate that we may be introduced to more characters like them(ie. people who struggle against fate) further in the future.
seesh sound more and more like the matrix!

I think everyone is forgetting, the Griffith running around really isn't Griffith. The real Griffith became Femento, and Guts does know this. Just the look alike is an easy target, cause its running around and not in some astral plane.

When Guts does kill the look alike, I'm going to guess something big is going to happen. Also SK is hunting the God Hand and I think if he wanted to he could convince Guts to join him in the hunt.

Griffith and Femto are one, the physical existence Griffith is still the astral form Femto, he has been able to insert a himself in the Material plane thanks to the egg apostle, so there is no fake Griffith.

Thinking about it, if he does destroy Griffith`s physical appearance, there is a chance his astral form would endure, but the death of Griffith would mend the rift that was created by the egg, returning the legendary creatures back to their own plane.

I think that if Guts manages to kill the physical body Femto is inhabiting, it will kill him. Since his sword is able to harm astral beings, and since Griffith is entirely in the matieral plane now (unlike Slann who was only partially in it) I don't see any reason that Griffith would survive if Guts somehow manages to destroy his body.

Besides, since Guts can't really travel to the Astral realm the God's Hand inhabit (and even if he could the God's Hand would presumably have a huge advantage in any fight there) I don't see any other way he could concievably kill Griffith. Griffith coming into the matieral world is both a huge danger and a huge opportunity for Guts.

Nice Preview, that fight is going to be fun to see/read.

I dont know i came to the conclusion that Gut's son or fetus thingy climbed inside that huge egg, which became a new Griffith.

That preview to me looks like water magic, which means Schierke is able to cast spells from the armour.

I dunno, that looks to me like a spell from the Kusan dude. Like a tornado or water blast coming up to meet him before the mage becomes mince-meat.

She wont react she will see it very fast that Guts doesnt even look at Farnese that way,no matter how much Farnese wants it to be.

I wasn´t speaking in those terms, i mentioned that because retarded caska seems so dependant to Farnese, she´s probably the person she likes the most now.
I was surprised that Farnese was atracted to Guts considering their previous encounters, that was recently developed anyway, didn´t saw it coming.

i think.
I've always assumed it was Caska and Guts' child, that became perverted through Griffith/Femto's actions during the Eclipse.

I suppose I've always reasoned that Caska became impregnated during Volume 9/10, and then Griffith corrupted the unborn fetus, similar to what the Kusharns did in order to create their demon army.

Of course, the child in question shares little in common with the demon children being used in the war, which acts as a logical fallacy to my argument. It'll be interesting to see what is done with the character.

wowow. i didnt even begin to think of that.
yeah it seems very plausible that the boy is the product of caska, guts and griffith. that deepens the connections between them and opens up whole new angle waiting to be explored.

nice theory.

I always believed it was Guts and Caskas child corrupted by Femto`s seed, cant quite remember where I read that though.

And great preview, the mage seems to be overconfident of his victory, and by the looks of that water tornado, maybe he should. Although Guts can probably take the hit with no problems, whats going to happen if he gets thrown into the water? * Gah* to much speculation, ill just wait for the release. :D , *need my fix bad* %_@

That Kushan mage seems to really know what he's doing. It seems like it would be really hard for Guts (whose in full armor) to deal with water magic. This looks like it'll be a really cool fight.

i think the cyclone is conjured up by the mage to counter guts' charge.
not conjured by schierke to assist guts.
just observe the direction of the cyclone and guts' charging direction.

Oh right. I didn't look properly. It sort of looked like Guts riding the cyclone, but in fact he is leaping at the sorceror.
