----------------------------------------
After so many chapters, we're finally getting Casca's 'revival'. Besides the fact that this chapter had a fair bit of dialogue in it, it seems like those dialogueless chapters that have building up to this point has been all worth it.
Interesting fact: If next chapter shows Casca being revived and back to normal, it will be exactly 21 years since Casca was first shown to be mentally broken (chapter 89 came out on March 31, 1997). Not sure if this was all according to Miura's keikaku and purposely had a hiatus to delay the storyline, but this 'coincidence' is perfect XD
*Stares end of this post* Okay Wow lol....that would be amazing if that really was Miura's plan..he would really blindside us if it really was his plan amazing one actually

man.. if Casca really comes back to normal, it would be super unexpected for me.. since what Skull Knight have said, "There's no guarantee your wish will be her wish"
I feel the same way. There's no way Miura plants that line unless it was going to mean something consequential. Of course its been so long in the making that maybe he changed his mind/ plans.
Next chapter is massively important.
It might be regarding their child though.
Good point. It might very well be.
Counting the days till the release.

I still can't realize what I was seeing in front of that last panel. 1997. Since that year, how many guys have been waiting for Casca; for that awakened face.
It was a long journey, isn't it, Casca? :')
But yet, we should not fall in a rejoicing fest. That kind of situation is obviously fitting to call up a sinister hunch. Berserk.

I was just thinking of that too, next chapter might just give us a glimpse into what he meant when he told Guts that.
I'm pretty sure Miura put that quote in to make the action that Guts takes morally ambiguous, and isn't necessarily indicative of what will actually happen. That's because the meaning is pretty obvious, that Guts wants Casca to be healed, but maybe she doesn't want to be. Now we'll just have to wait and see just how happy, depressing or bittersweet the results of Gut's actions are now that he has finally made his wish come true- and while I do think that Casca will reunite with Guts in one way or another, like I said before, I don't think the quote was necessarily meant as foreshadowing, but rather poses a question for the audience to take into consideration when discussing whether Casca should be healed.

I do believe it's foreshadowing something though. That line was first said a long time ago, and just recently said again.
Of course it was, it would defeat the purpose not to say it. The thing is it doesn't necessarily matter if it will be true for Casca or not, rather, it's purpose was again to place that seed of doubt in Guts and the audience, and for Miura to explore that idea in the story. The line is too vague to be considered foreshadowing, in my opinion, at least foreshadowing a specific event. You could make the case that it's foreshadowing the moral and lore-based ambiguity of healing Casca, but the line is still more of a thought experiment than anything. Like I said earlier in this post, everything seems to imply that Casca might want to see Guts when she is awake again. I don't think it'll be all sunshine and rainbows next chapter, but because this is implied heavily in the latest chapter, I don't see that thought experiment from before holding much weight anymore.
We'll just have to wait and see. I personally think it's something significant. I just hope it's about what to do about their demonic child. Guts wanting to kill it, and Casca like a good mother protecting it.
