I agree it doesn't have a mind, but I think that it is trying to overtake him. The way I see it, the purpose of the armor is to make the person the best warrior they can be, and to do that the dwarves made it so the armor releases certain of the bodies' chemicals that totally surpress pain. These chemicals also have the effect of making the person what we would call "berserk". This can happen naturally, a person becoming so lost to rage that they see to feel pain and can release all of their bodies power, but the armor does that artificially. So the way I see it, the armor is always trying to do this (that's its job, the purpose for which it was created, after all) and Guts has to continually work at surpressing it. The problem is when Guts enters combat, if the battle is fierce he tends to start to enter such a state on his own (like he did back before he rejoined Caska), though to a lesser degree. This naturally makes it much more difficult to restrain the armor from doing its job. So yes, it does seem to continually try to overtake him, but it does so mindlessly. The shape of the armor is given to it by Guts inner mind (how he sees that part of himself) not by the armor itself, because it has no mind of its own to do the shaping.The armor has no mind, so I don't think it's trying to overtake him. I think the owner shapes and control the armor, but Gatts don't know how to do that yet. So, when he need it, it 'takes control'. Kind of like when you have an adrenalin surge. I think he might be able to control the armor, but for sure, that is in a far away moment.
or to waste time...In the beginning Berserk seemed to have minimal to no filler plots but it seems like he is dragging out story points unnecesarily.SONGSAN wrote: It
is pretty obvious that these herds after herds of inferior enemies
we're facing are for 'educational purpose'.
That would be cool alright, the only problem I see is that Guts would kill them in short order. With the armor fully activated, he's much faster then them. And I doubt Guts sanity could survive if he was the one to kill his new "family". It was strained enough by Griffith killing his old one. An insane Guts would just be sad.but how cool it would be if the gang had to escape through the burning alleys from the rampaging Guts in the next chapter
I agree that so far even Serpico doesn't seem useful against Apostle class enemies (and he is definately the most powerful warrior after Guts) but he is still improving. Part of the problem might be that he doesn't really understand how to fight opponents of that nature yet. As time goes on he might become better able to fight against them. Also, I wonder if his wind abilities might be useful when fighting against the Kushan King, who is fog. Just a thought. Leaving all this aside, however, the group of them do seem useful (at least somewhat) in helping Guts deal with the hords of lower level enemies that he's been facing lately.When i say useless i mean they cant help against apostles. They are his friends so they are useful in that way that he isnt alone anymore.
But in a fight against an apostle even Serpico isnt any help if Guts fights a strong apostle. I mean the apostle he fought outside Flora's place he almost killed Guts despite Guts using the armour. What can Serpico do to an apostle like that.
Also you cant judge by the first time Guts met Serpico on the cliff. If he really wanted to kil him as he wants to kill apostles. He would cut through the cliff and serpico's head with it.
