| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So the desperate Griffith sacrifices his comrades - if they ever were comrades to him. Shame it ends next episode...gotta read the manga :D |
 |
| It's called Berserk as well. I think you can find it on various manga sites but not onemanga |
|
| I want the demon naked chick XD |

| This episode was ridiculously good. Holy freaking shit! |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| =| *starts dling manga* |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| This really took the supernatural route now. I'm guessing the end is gonna be messy. |

| Grifith chooses to make a deal with the devil, as I predicted. The band of the Hawk....is no more? |
| Oh cool, its that brand form the first ep. I guess its time to start reading the manga then.. Demon lady was hawt =3 |

| So, it will end with a massacre... Damn |
 |
| That naked demon chick was pretty hot. |
 |
| wow, pretty good episode, and i think this confirms the need for me to read the manga, half way though i thought i would need to, i wonder what that sign means |
| Griffith...why you do dis? |
 |
| So this is how far Griffith will go to attain his dream. |

| Oh my this was disturbing on so many levels and I fear the next episode will be even worse. Onto the finale. |
 |
| Oh wow this sure got fucked up quite fast! Well I really wonder what the last episode has to offer us but man this sure is impressive! |
 |
| I swear: this show has one of the most serious cases of attracting viewers to support and read the manga. It's so serious, that it's literally killing. Anyways, is it my imagination, or has this show been getting rather comedic and epic lately? I mean, it's great that the show has gone back to its original monster-demon-hell-like "Berserk", but...with 20 episodes worth of normal development...this episode is too "artificial" to be true. I cannot take such "trickery". (Does the branding of the guys remind you of FF XIII? No offence to haters, but it does, for me.) |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| ^I agree it is really jarring. It took a looong time to get back to the supernatural stuff with only that beast guy in the dungeon between the first ep and here to keep the thread. Then they go supernatural TO THE MAX! Good when you get there though. The problem isnt actually so bad in the films, especially since they're shorter. Watching the series now it seems like there's no plot points missing in the movie adaptations whatsoever, except maybe where Guts has briefly gone swordslinging on his own path. Probably just fewer/shorter battles and angsting over "dreams".* In the films they even add in the skull knight who warns Guts what's coming that isn't in the series. *ah yeah they're also missing some more of the palace plots against Griffith but there's enough in them already to give the gist |

animeguy17 said: I feel so bad for Casca. She was really the most loyal to Griffith and in that last moment before he sacrificed everybody, he didn't think of her once. I'll definitely be reading the manga. This is an incredible story. yeah i thought he was going to mention her along with Guts. |

| Am I the only one who didn't like how they changed the whole show around in the last couple of episodes? I was really really enjoying the story but then it had to get all supernatural. Was hoping it could of just stayed the same (no monsters). In fact, the same thing happened with Gungrave. Great mafia/gang show and then it turns into a monster anime. Anyhow, still both great shows. |
| this was pretty wtf o_o sexy naked angel demon appears and the soldiers react by saying "what is that? A giant?" lolol now the first episode makes sense... "the ruins...of my dream..." |

Yeah but the whole anime series wasn't about demons (almost all) but then bang, last couple episodes. I'm not hating on it, just wish they made it non supernatural. I liked how it was the whole series up until the end part. |
| What an awesome episode! It's getting out of control, Evangelion style, and I like that. That giant chick is hot. |
| Things got real nuts real quick. |
| The question in the end sounded epic and 2deep4me lol But this part was more epic in the movie, well this anime is pretty old. |

| What just happened? Reminded me of NGE's ending |
    |
| Lol what is up with this supernatural stuff? It felt like it came out of nowhere. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Did they ever explain why no one ever took Griffith's helmet off? They started to remove it and were all freaked out when they did so. Is it burned onto his head so it can't be removed or something? Is his face just so messed up they don't want to look at it? |

I guess that makes sense. I just figured it'd be easier to bandage his head along with the rest of his body to cover up the awfulness. Seems pretty uncomfortable to lay there wearing a metal helmet while as physically broken as he was. |

Talon184 said: the thing is though is that helmet of his is also their symbol. griffith is more than just a man to his people. so at that point it's making the decision of maintaining morale that the hawk still stands or once again showing that the hawk has been layed low.Maloghurst said: they dindt want everyone else to see because it would break what morale they had left. the band is in really bad shape and they need to to cling to whatever little they had left I guess that makes sense.

| Griffith is a damn sellout bruh |
| wtf...at least we know where Guts got his sign. |
 張大です for 張大勇督察 |
| Now we know that Brain demon has that epic sound of every ep [ In this world ] I really love his voice |
| Very weird and fucked up things just happened in this episode. |
| It's nice and all to tempt a broken man with his dream (though I'm sure the guy would have accepted without mind intrusion) but I'm missing how becoming a monster will give him his own land. The only gains are physical power above humans and an exchange body. 4/5 Good episode, but it's taking its time far too much considering what's left of the series. |
