Since I started getting into Berserk, I’ve grown to care for Guts more than almost any fictional character I’ve ever seen. I’ve been watching this guy from birth through all the hardships to his brief moments of happiness and everything in between… and at this point, I think if he continually keeps facing tragedy after tragedy and the series ends on a depressing note… something inside me might just break a little. I think I was on the verge of tearing up several times through the manga (which doesn’t happen to me often).
On top of that, I’m so afraid for all the other characters I’ve grown to love. I know that Berserk hasn’t been as dark as it used to be for some time, but I get the feeling that this is a prolonged calm before the storm. I can’t shake the thought that more awful, heartbreaking things are in store for us, and I’m a little scared.
Same here bud, same here ^_^
