 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Wait what? 1 year passed?..lol i didn't even know till the old guy said it..LMAO Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Wow one year. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Ok so its been one year and they just captured griffith? i dont get it |
| Boy, oh boy! Things for Band of the Hawk sure doesn't look too bright. And the one who sparked it was Guts! When he left, Griffits was so confused, that he done something really stupid, and that action brought very severe consequences both for him and his band. >< But now Gatsu is going to fix everything, right? |

| Awesome training montage episode =) Guts looked very happy after spending a year to himself. |
| A more relaxing episode thoroughly, I was needing that! Damn, it's sad seeing the Band of the Hawk in such state though :/ |
 |
| Terrible art work of Guts at the end. |
 |
At first, I was like... But then, I...  |

 |
| So let's see a year passed, Griffith gets captured by Midland and everything went to hell? How the heck could Griffith allow that to happen? |
 |
| Pretty nice training episode but damn that ending! Really epic! |
 |
| this just reminds me of murder princess man. He's gone for half an episode, and now he's back. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |

| the first half of this episode was so chill. Every badass needs a loli. It was really shocking and sad to see what the Band of the Hawks has become with Guts and Griffith gone...poor Casca. Of course, being the badass he is, Guts comes in the nick of time. Wonder how this will play out... wasuuuuuuuuuuretaa |

| This just seems like it'll be the last "calm" episode of the series. |
| The ending was way different compared to the movie, I guess it was to make the movie more appealing. Seeing the blacksmith was actually nice, it brought things into perspective. |

| well guts maybe realises now that he was not a mere pebble but a fucking mountain |
| From being called knights to simple bandits, what a twist of fate. Guts to the rescue, time to kick ass |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Another year goes by and that rickerts kid (or whatever his name is) is still like 12 years old. Dude never ages! |
 |
on 
| Wow Griffith has fallen. Pussy ain't worth it. Thanks for the message Berserk. |
| Wow,it's really sad to see the band of the hawk in such terrible state. |
| Seeing him doing nothing, "philosophizing" about the meaning of his life only to come back to what he used to be... it was rather useless to take so much time for so little near the end. 2/5 |
| Calm episode. It doesnt seem like Guts is getting anywhere really except of realizing that he just likes fighting.. it doesnt seem like he tried to do anything else. Curious how changed Griffith will be after this? Perhaps Griffith will forgive Guts after he saves him and they will live happily ever after? Haha. Yeah.. This really wont end well. I feel like this is just a calm before the storm. |
 |
| I thought this was going to be an OK slice of nothing ever happens episode, but I was proven wrong when the messenger came Quality episode. Finally Guts return to the band of the hawks, I want to see what is going to happen to lead to the conclusion Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

| I can already hear Casca blaming Guts for every bad thing that happened to them... |
| Band of the Hawk - From lowly mercenaries to the highest ranking Military force to hunted bandits... That's what happens when the coolest man looses his cool (face palm) |

| The first half was a bit boring. Guts wins some random tournament. Then he stays with a blacksmith and his daughter, questionmark? He trains by cutting logs that come falling down a waterfall. Then, by the power of the almighty time-skip, we're one year further and Guts hears that the Band of the Hawk has been spotted. They've been reduced to a band of outlaws once again. The episode ends with Guts' (admittedly badass) entry onto the scene, when the Band of the Hawk gets attacked during a nightraid. I have to say, it was a bit comical seeing the whole band so defeated. 1 year without Griffith and they're a bunch of sad, depressed soldiers. So Griffith was probably being tortured for 1 year straight. A high price for a one-night stand. I guess he'll blame Guts for it. Onwards, to the next episode! |
 |
| This was perfect. I love the band of hawks but man, it was super refreshing seeing guts be pretty much the only focus for the majority of the episode and t was perfect in terms of atmosphere too. Also, I'm glad he came in clutch there |
 |
| muh man seems 2 have chilled a bit |
 |

| Pretty meh episode, Guts' monologue just seems like a repeat from previous Episode, but its saved by the ending. I feel really bad about the hawks, especially Casca. The fact they seem to be blisfully unaware of what Griffith did makes it even worse considering that Guts was raped and Casca was about to be raped twice. Cant wait for them to find out. |
| It was Griffith fault for going for the princess, not Guts fault. He has left for good and he seemed happy about his new life. But he never stops at one point. So it's a transitional episode, in the end he comes back to the band of the Hawk, but there isn't Griffith anymore. They are all outlaws, it's sad that the best army is now the enemy for the kingdom. |
