WTF is wrong with the artstyle? Casca looks atrocious, like a generic moe character.
And the Elf queen is stupid, to just send Casca to Guts in a pretty dress and not considering that she doesnt remember everything yet.
Miura is dragging this story to death
The art style has been moefied since the beginning of this arc, and it's intentional.
Why would the queen (king) even consider that? Why would she even think there'd be a consequence to reuniting the two? Also, we don't know what happened while they were in the dream world, the elf queen (king) could have put Casca under another spell and what we see here is also an illusion, or perhaps Guts requested that he'd deal with Casca after she woke up.
To foil your subjective viewpoint, I will give my own by saying that Miura isn't dragging the story to death. That said, the releases of the chapters are what's taking too long and Miura has to work with 18 paged chapters as opposed to 30-50 pages like it used to have. Now that Miura healed Casca after exactly 21 years, I doubt the hiatuses will keep up as much as it has been as we are getting a chapter this month. Maybe sooner or later, Berserk will get its double length back as we head into the next and possibly the final arc. But it's not like Berserk hasn't been running on 20~ paged chapters for quite some time now with or without hiatuses, it's just a case of subject matter and execution. This plot point has been building up for 21 years, of course Miura will take his time to execute it right. There are no redos after all.
