When Berserk first launched Casca, followers solely knew her as a robust lady who fought alongside her male counterparts and exceeded them and their foes. While mangaka Kentaro Miura did present her emotionally weak by the methods during which Griffith clearly favored Guts over her, it was Casca’s power and resilience that inevitably stole Guts’ coronary heart and freed Casca from Griffith’s maintain. But all of that modified when Berserk remodeled her into the final word sufferer whereby her assault at Griffith’s palms broke her thoughts, placing her in a close to catatonic state the place she adopted the infantile function of Elaine for years. Even when Casca grew to become herself once more (fortunately due to her two feminine colleagues and never Guts), simply the mere act of seeing Griffith precipitated her to faint, permitting Griffith to seize her in current chapters of Berserk.

He’s mainly proper at sq. one after the Eclipse. This leaves room to imagine that Guts may due to this fact be much less involved over the truth that he simply misplaced Casca, and it is attainable that the rationale for that is that he believes she’s greater than able to holding her personal. Guts may have simply thought or mentioned one thing about how he can now not defend Casca or that Casca is now at Griffith’s mercy. It would have been regular and comprehensible for him to precise such sentiments. But it will have positioned Casca as soon as once more ready the place she’s portrayed as a damsel in misery who must be saved. But Guts’ response proves that she’s something however that (and it is true). He’s extra involved about his personal failings and the way far more highly effective Griffith is than him.
Of course, Guts will nonetheless be pushed to rescue Casca as is anticipated. It’s an comprehensible response to such an unlucky incident. But not less than Studio Gaga gave Casca this second of energy after greater than 20 years of perpetual victimization. That mentioned, whereas Casca‘s current power may come from her male protector and never herself, it is important to notice {that a} man who cares for her deeply and has devoted his whole life to restoring her is extra involved about his personal failings though she’s probably the most weak she’s ever been since she was final captured in Berserk.
