After looking at this preview, I think you're on to something. The Dragonslayer wasn't propped up in the last episode, so maybe Guts just jumped deck and hope his slab of iron would take the bolt."Griffith No More!" said:Lightning Rod!

Aazealh said:He could let the DS absorb the shock so he wouldn't take it himself, that's what I meant. He'd have not to be holding it of course (by thrusting it in the shipwreck he's on for example).
Jhot obs said:In regards to this episode's title, I'm sure it's referring to the land army (led by the elusive land general) making their debut.
Wereallmad said:I gotta confess, when I heard the lightening rod theory, all I could think was "what a load of crap" and there Guts proves me wrong. Seriously, where the fuck did Guts learn physics anyway?
"Griffith No More!" said:Anyway, the lighting rod isn't a slam dunk yet; in spite of our expectations, that shot is totally ambiguous. Anything could be happening.
Aazealh said:Jesus guys, Demon Army?! What if it's not about Ganishka's troops but the Neo Hawks! The kanji are similar as puella pointed out to me just now (it's also a variation of how the trolls were called: "evil horde").
Aazealh said:Yeah, let's not get too confident about it yet. It's still a bit early. Anyway it sounds like Ganishka might actually be distracted by the Hawks and think Guts' dead. Maybe he'll even tell Griffith so: "I killed that pawn of yours, the man in black armor wielding a huge sword!"
"Griffith No More!" said:Lightning Rod!
Actually, that was my first thought for some odd reason (the main one being that Ganishka's "marines" already arrived).... in that case, Guts better get his ass out of here (and, say... on that damn boat)... if not, well, it really could be anything at this point.Aazealh said:Jesus guys, Demon Army?! What if it's not about Ganishka's troops but the Neo Hawks! The kanji are similar as puella pointed out to me just now (it's also a variation of how the trolls were called: "evil horde"). I definitely see this as a strong possibility right now.

For Ganishka its probably like duck hunt.
