| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- great episode. in these last couple of episodes this anime has been going in the right direction. great character development and great action. i wonder how they're gonna get out of this ambush though. |

| I swear people bleed way too much in this anime ;o |
 |
| these soldiers must really get no action at home |
 |
| Well , they are mercenaries. They don't have women in their 'group'. |
| Guts just needs to kill the damn leader sheesh |

Zell182 said: I swear people bleed way too much in this anime ;o It reminds me of Kill Bill. You just need to remember that once you're on the screen, your blood pressure doubles. That's all there is to it ;P I enjoyed the comment "this will be the most enioyble way to die". Theoretially it's true, provided you can be satisfied by your enemy. Sure, most soldiers are hulks that can provide everything a woman can wish for, but I think the fact that you're about to be killed sort of kills the mood :( |

| Eww. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| That was some really epic episode! Very nice fight scenes, lots of gore and blood.... mmm, very tasty! xD For Gatsu, even whole platoon of mercenaries seems like a joke. It would probably take no less than battalion of skilled soldiers to take him down lol xD It's just like one dude said: 'every time he swings his sword - someone dies!'. But please, someone save Casca! >< |
| "If you guys don't get it together i'm leaving." The comedy just works brilliantly intertwined with the action. |
| I decided to watch the outtakes on this disc, and now I'm gonna have to go back through and watch the rest. For the most part it's pretty standard line flubs, but the guy who does Griffith is HILARIOUS. |
| After a great episode of development, THIS happens! What a massacre, enjoying this more and more! I usually am not one to like mindless violence and liters of blood being spilled, but it fits well with the nature of Berserk. The only other series where the exaggerated use of blood and guts (no pun intended) felt right was Hellsing Ultimate. These series are overly violent and gory, but there's something about them that justifies it, it doesn't feel just like a guilty pleasure. |
 |
| Wow Guts is really up there on the badassery scale. |
| Guts is awesome..Keep killing..MWHAHAHA And that girl Casca is gonna get so raped :P |
-------Only God will judge me -------- iSignature |
| i need an episode that explains why guts is so good lol |
 |
Adramelech said: I don't like how it is obvious that Griffith is going to save Caska. They didn't show what Griffith decided to do (search for Guts or continue the fighting), and they would never let her get raped. I really don't like these kind of scenes. I agree, I also feel its pretty obvious Griffith is gonna appear out of nowhere to save her. It seems whenever shes in trouble either Guts or Griffith drop out of the sky at the last second to come to her rescue. Other then that this episode was good, lots of action and guts just cutting through tons of enemies was great fun to watch. |
 |
| Guts is a monster, and the idiot general is just pissing me off...everyone keep attavking and dying while I stand here and act better than everyone. Ugh he needs to go. |
 |
| What a massacre! Pretty intense episode, I really hope she'll find a way to escape... let's see what's next! |
 |
| the battle reminds me of Zack's final fight in Crisis Core. Well, Guts CANNOT die though! |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| getting quite monotonous with the battling... and it hasn't even finished yet! |
| Guts' just refuses to die. |
| Everything was in slow motion. I guess it made the episode last longer. |

| That was absolutely badass, maybe now she'll see Guts with a different eye |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| LOL Guts is overpowered and this episode doesn't make any sense, So Stupid. Bad Episode. Instead of attacking him all together they attack him one, two, three. This is not logical. |
| what a great character. !Very nice fight scenes, lots of action and blood. if somebody ever count gutts kill count in this episode please msg me |
 |
| That was a comedic episode. And giving too much time to a goofy comic relief character, the general. It's being dragged beyond its limit. One asspull after another -minor to major- starting with Guts saving her in that battle. Enemy forces waiting for their conversation to end, is something that was unlikely to happen in the first ten episodes, the battles in this wasn't supposed to be similar to JoJo. There's also a fair amount of poor dialogue compared to decent dialogues have been presented so far. Irrational acts from both characters, and some scenes too. Some potential plotholes too, for example, where was Samson in their last battle? he could've made a noticeable difference. what happened to her losing her trust to Grifith after hearing his talk with the princess? He chose princess apparently. she witnessed that. what's with her losing that memory and saying Grifith chose Guts? It's unlikely of an emotional character like her to say that and ignore Grifith's recent close relationship with that girl. |

| And still, Bill will live on. He will befriend the next inhabitants of the earth, beings of light who revere him as a god. And Bill will outlive them all... for millions and millions of years...exploring, learning, living, until the earth is swallowed beneath his feet. Until the sun is long since gone. Until time loses all meaning and the moment comes that he knows only the positions of the stars and sees them whether his eyes are closed or open. Until he forgets his name and the place where he'd once come from. He lives and he lives until all of the lights go out. |
| Great episode as always from the OG Berserk I feel like this episode was a bit unnecessary though, that general should have died by the hands of Griffith and the army. Still a good episode nonetheless. Really no scene stuck out here, maybe the Casca scene where she was held against her will. I feel like Griffith's absence really takes away from Berserk.

| Finally our homeboy went berserk. |
| Another great episode, really suprised that the commander is still alive, I guess keeping him as a joke character works pretty good Guts is just a damn killing machine |
| A bit too much slashing, often by reusing scenes. Not much happened apart from that. |
| Someone please save Casca And someone please save Guts Griffith we need YOU!!! |

| Loved this episode, it went by in a flash. Guts really knows how to tick Casca off now, haha. But the one line he said: "Of course not, I'm a man. How could I understand a woman?" That's pretty deep for just a throw-away line. The batlle was awesome. I love how Guts grows fang and gets the "crazy eyes" in the heat of battle. The part where he deflected Samson's spikeball into another enemy's face was funny. It got a chuckle out of me. And of course, the pervs strike again. This episode ended on such a cliffhanger. I just have to go straight to the next one. Edit: People talking about plotholes, sure there might be a few. The only one I really noticed was that the enemies had Guts and Casca completely surrounded at multiple times. One single charge would be all it takes. But what can you say, anime. |

| I didn't like this episode as much mainly cause of the way casca was handled but Guts being a badass never gets old |
 |
| ehhhhhhh weakest ep yet |
 |
| Doesn’t anyone want to take revenge for Samson? Nah man we’re good |
 |
| "Sure, most soldiers are hulks that can provide everything a woman can wish for, but I think the fact that you're about to be killed sort of kills the mood :(" what |
 |
| The part with the commander telling his troops to kill Guts, only for them to decline was funny |
| Guts is a monster in battle. One man against an army! He is finally the hero in this episode, he got in the shadow so many times because of Griffith but finally he is the star. Casca is starting to think different about him, I don't know why she seems so powerless, I always thought she is one of the most skilled fighters in the band of the hawk. I like that there is character development even in a rough battle. The last three episodes were so explicit, more than the first episodes where a lot of stuff was cut down from the manga. |
