That old fart was alive! I have to say I didn't dislike him.
I'm always suprised that most people seem to consider that the logic continuation for this manga is simply for Guts to kill Griffith and everything would be ok again.
But Griffith brought peace, not only between humans but between creatures and humans. That's why I consider Berserk to be a great story, not because Guts will take revenge but because there is this question is it the best choice to take revenge? There is a strong dilemma here.
truth.
Griffith is essentially Messiah in the eyes of the people. If Guts were to kill him, he would go down in history as the Antichrist or something along those lines.
No one but an extremely small circle of people (Guts himself, maybe Rickert and Casca?) would even appreciate the murder of Griffith.
