Planning on spacing out my reread of this mange in between novels to diversify my reading. First introduction of the behlith and the God Hand which was done really well. Really sets up the theme of revenge that runs through the entire story and Guts' inevitable death but unwillingness to give up. Like Guts is simply my pookie bear. All the villains in this manga are so despicable and scary like EEEEEEEKKKKK fr.

Got to see a dude eat a guy in some detail, that was new. The meat on these grimdark bones isn't really enough to satisfy this time around though; laughable dialogue about Guts learning/re-learning having feelings. May hit harder in retrospect once Guts gets his dose of character development. Monsters still gross though (positive)!
