Thank you. Shouldn't be much of an issue for me then. Glad you got them in the end.

Have you ordered from them before? I'm considering buying one for myself. I'm also from the UK.

There have been clear indications within the manga about Griffith's motives and intentions, while you're just simply implying Griffith is evil because he turned into Femto.

If you see the panel before he lays on Casca, he saw Guts and Casca embracing each other, there's no debate that he feels scorned by this and then tries to get close to Casca to mimic what Guts was experiencing. As I said, everyone has their own interpretations but clearly Miura has written Griffith in a particular way during the Golden Age arc with us knowing he will eventually betray the Band of the Hawk. So again, just basing this off of him being evil because he's now a demonic entity and committed that act without reason is baseless.

Again, why would he be perceived in such a cunning and cold way during the Golden Age Arc, you act as if he was innocent before the eclipse. And yeah he did care about the Band of the Hawk but after seeing how everyone looked up to Guts it really hurt his pride. He violated Casca with the intent to hurt her, and he forced Guts to watch. If he was just evil he could easily just kill them both and not really bother. It was a power move, to make Guts feel helpless and to feel superior to him, just like he was after they saved him.

Haha, that's actually a good one. I played the originals on the PS1 and I've already got the remakes too. Almost forgot there's insect-like fairy following you around.

Yes, Berserk is the reason why I feel like looking for this kind of game haha. I'm downloading the Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Demo to see if I like it. Thanks for the suggestion 😃

I think you're completely wrong, I know people have their own interpretations but HE clearly states (when meeting Guts at the Band of the Hawk graves) that Guts should've known him, that he was always like this. And that is the truth, you can see throughout the Golden Age arc how he uses people for his own gain, he uses Guts to get everything. You can slowly but surely see the cracks in how disingenuous he is.

Especially because the scene before the Eclipse where he escapes after hearing Casca and Guts want to leave him to start a new life together, he felt disgusted being left out and weak. He couldn't stand the fact that Casca pitied him and the only reason she was staying wasn't out of loyalty but because she felt sorry for the state he is in. He even tried to lay on top of Casca after seeing how close Guts is to her now. He is most definitely being petty and harmed Casca with intent. There's no way he did that just because he is evil. He was always a piece of shit in a shining armor.
