I was kinda dreading reading this one because even though I have not watched the show, it’s clear from the trajectory and what we know in the beginning that this volume is going to contain The Betrayal. And because you know the sacrifice is coming it’s just wrenching to read. I am attached to everyone by now so it’s awful to watch them suffer. Griffith is like a theon Greyjoy (show version) post torture which is harrowing. I wonder how mentally destroyed he was after his imprisonment. Still rooting for guts and casca. I was talking to kai about what an interesting love triangle this is because guts and casca are falling for eachother while the flame of both of their individual Griffith obsessions still burn. Kai said she didn’t think Griffith gives a fuck about casca but what was that little marriage fantasy he had in the wagon? I mean I know it’s not as intense as his feelings toward guts but still. This volume is where things start getting crazy with the demons and the supernatural stuff etc. left on a big cliffhanger...is everyone I care about dead ?????

This volume was intense. We finally get to the point of introducing the God hand which we first saw in volume 1. We can see how powerful they are and finally understand how this Griffth joined them.
The one aspect I like about Berserk is Guts strength. I've read some manga where characters are OP or get a sudden power boost to beat their enemies. When reading Berserk you see Guts train for a year and when he fights his first demon he is knocked around and on the very of death. You keep reading now knowing who will die next and how they are going to win.
Also, the manga can get really graphic at times and I felt uneasy at parts. It was the best. Nothing is off limits in the series and I never know where it is going next.
