This was a better chapter than the previous one.
I'm with those saying that Guts+Cascas( tainted by Griffith) child is the "Moon-child". I also think that he and Griffith are one in the same, which will create a real dilemma for Guts later on when realizes this.I have a feeling he will have to make a final decision, similar to what happened to Griffith during the Eclipse, he will have to chose his own ambition(revenge in Guts case) or happiness; or maybe a third choice???
Once again we see the mermaids this time they save Guts, i just hope that's the end of it. Its time to move away from the cutesy stuff and get back to the old dark fantasy setting that Berserk has had from the start. I really hope Miura stops dragging his feet and finally moves the plot forward because we have been stuck on this same, lame arc for the past two years or so. Lets just get to Elfenhiem and get Caska's memories back already, instead of constantly talking about it.
On a side note, once again Miura decides to give a big F-you to the fans by going on break AGAIN. Honestly every year this guy seems to be releasing less and less chapters, i really hope his publishers start putting some pressure on his lazy ass. That or IDOLM@STER stops releasing their shitty games.
