??????
what is going on
Griffith get the FUCK outta here no one asked for you

This being handled from Studio Gaga after Muira’s passing in 2021, so far is beautifully dark and a handful of surprises for Guts.

Re-reading before Vol 43 next month

And Guts has sunken into the deepest depths of despair…someone needs to pull him out of this.

And we haven’t seen Princess Charlotte since Griffith brought Casca with him.

What does Griffith intends to do with Casca and how long has it been since he took her? He’s putting her in a fancy dress & assigning her maids while keeping her under guard. For what purpose? Does he intend to keep her as a secret concubine? But that’s not it. He’s letting her out to go & see the children etc. but she seems out of it, like she’s been enchanted. But she snapped out of it so how does it work?

mean they’re dead! And Isma has disappeared along with them! That hit me harder than I thought it would. But I wonder how it works because Puck and Ivalera both were on the island and they didn’t disappear along with the rest of the elves and magical creatures. And just how strong is Griffith? If even an island full of mages and magical creatures and Danann couldn’t stand up to him. I hate this!

Guts swinging over and over again at Griffith and not making the smallest of wounds was so frustrating to see. And that evil bastard had to go and take Casca away too! I have so much hatred for him it’s not even funny. I didn’t like the fact that we weren’t shown how he took her from Farnese and Schierke. And now Danann and all the magical inhabitants of Elfhelm have gone from this world! I hope that doesn’t

That felt entirely too cruel

Two: what taboo did Flora violate for her to be exiled from the island? And that reveal that the little boy is Griffith all along was chilling! It made me sick to my stomach remembering how Guts and Casca were acting like parents for him! I should’ve known it was him! He merged with Casca’s demon baby and reincarnated into this world! This is going to be so interesting! I’m not ready!

going on. The five Angels were there, only they weren’t the same! Only Void is the same and the other four are different! Which leads me to believe that they are killable! And that Skeleton Knight has managed to off four of them! Well, unless there are other reasons as to why they’re different. And, his lover looks exactly like Danann! Was she an elf? She’s also buried in Elfhelm! I think they’re related!

Two things I’ve neglected to mention on the previous volume (I was only thinking about Kentaro Miura’s death and the manga his friend Kouji Mori did about him and their friendship; which was quite heartfelt) one: I was right! Skeleton Knight is(or rather was) King Gaiseric! And that little glimpse from his point of view as he held his dying lover was intense! She was branded! & it seems like there was an eclipse
