Awesome chapter!
This is where the downfall truly starts!
Griffith philosophizing was interesting and had some beauty about it!
"A man should envision such a lifetime once. A life spent as martyr to the god named "dream". Ultimately to be born, and to then simply live for no better reason...I can't abide such a lifestyle"
Every word he said in this chapter was a stab into the back of Guts....Pretty much Guts is a nothing to him, no friend no equal, just a tool.
No one could say he was only saying this to get the princess wet, but the evil smile at the end shows us he just doesn't give a fuck as long he as he wins.....so probably means it, straight up.
This was straight up a Sigma Male Grinset speech by Griffith lol
Guts is obviously shattered, he just killed the Count and an innocent child. A relationship between these two characters that just reminded him of himself and Gambino! And then he hears this....He is done with Griffith...
Casca's reaction was also interesting. She clearly has a crush on Griffith or is even in love with him, but this chapters reaction seems like she already knew how Griffith thinks and thus came to the conclusion that she has "no right to be in love with him or be with him".....
A truly complex relationship between these 3 characters...and it will get wilder..!
