Also Sonia is the new Casca in the Band of the hawk. She wants griffith but griffith is tied to the princess another repetition of causality

I feel like Zodd is a parallel to Guts in the new Band of the Hawk. The same role Guts plays in the Golden Age arc (battle-wise) is what Zodd is like in the Millennium arc. He also seems to be Femto's right hand guy the same way Guts is to Griffith. Obviously, Femto doesn't have any love for Zodd the way Griffith does for Guts, but in battle, they play the same roles.

Basically:
“History Doesn't Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes” – Mark Twain
There is no denying the similarity of SK & Void compare to Guts & Griffith are there but they are still very much a different characters, different life BGs, & different character progressions.

Rest In Peace Miura. He truly created a journey like no other

Easily one of the best Berserk videos out there. You’ve done it again🤘🏼

Quote by Voltaire: “History never repeats itself. Man always does."

I really think Miura’s intention is for Gut’s to build up something of his own army. You see him build a relationship with the Merrows and the Witches and Elves of Skellige. Maybe you are right, and this would lead to an all out attack on Griffith and Falconia in the way you described.

I’m guessing Gaiseric wasn’t actually an oppressive ruler, it’s just how the myths and legends painted him — just like how the Holy See mistake Guts as the “Hawk Of Darkness” even though he’s literally the opposite of that

While Void is exactly the same, but in an opposite parallel to Gaiseric

[GILGAMESH]

That's actually a pretty solid theory
But what if Griffith actually end up being the one destroying falconia in the first place ? Griffith and Void have alot of parallels both were tortured by a king both were the first godhand members of thier cycle both were remembered as messiahs while thier enemies as demons and both will destroy their kingdom in peruse of a greater purpose in Griffith's case it might be to give the other godhand members full physical bodies and complete the last phase in the causality/IoE plan

[VtheWanderer]

This was a very cool perspective. Never noticed those parallels between Gut's and Gaiseric's experiences, but now they seem really blatantly clear x)
As to my thoughts on the end of Berserk, I always imagined one of two outcomes:
- Griffith dies at the hand of Guts, in a way that the world perceives as a kind of Christ-like sacrifice. Griffith is deified, Guts is (willingly) executed and villified. The latter finds peace in death;
- Guts become a Skull Knight-like figure and the cycle repeats itself. Another person in the future will do something akin to what Griffith did, there will be a survivor of another eclipse hunting the former, and so on.
I kinda always imagined Guts dying at the end, though. I feel like he deserves to rest, to have come to terms with his life and to have peace. And I feel like that only death may grant him that.

Thanks for the video, it was great. And thanks for coming to my TEDtalk.

This channel is so great of berserk fans

[_draculas_castle_]

Just finished my first read through... now here scouring the internet for any and all Berserk content.

[SuperRandomPeach]

The Sword of Actualization will definitely play a part, Guts might wield it or perhaps Dragon Slayer will be imbued with its properties

[BKDON_]

Finally some great berserk content returning

[FrffyVsBoredom]

I can’t wait to reread Berserk again with all this info in mind

[Tazz]

6:54 this is also a reverse echo of how Griffith’s capture during the golden age is what kept the band of the hawk together hoping they could save him

[lovetownsend]

As epic as a final battle would be- I thought it was obvious at the last panels of latest Berserk, the tiny elf wizard is like "Do you use your rage because you simply have to, or because you want revenge." And Guts sees Casca and Farnese from a window and he's like fuck those options I'm just chillin on this island for casca. Even Skull knight tryin to tell him like hey choose revenge or love. Kentaro has stated he really thought hard about a sad ending for Guts but prefers a happy one for him. It would of been interesting to see Guts forgive the unforgiveable acts of Griffith, but I'm sure it wouldn't of been black and white like that. Comic ended at a good place actually.

That Void is the Griffith to Skull Knights Guts is still up there
