Damn, this was devastating. Guts and his sword are a rather deep plot point in his character arc for the longest time, everso subtly addressed again and again, but in a long while not this explicitly.
Theorist will have a field day speculating where is his next development going.
Stellar chapter, I love when we get slow burner chapters such as this to let us live a bit the moment on how fucked the situation is.
5/5, Team Berk still pouring their heart and soul in these chapters. Beautiful color spread we got, too.
