So I've been rereading the newest chapters (Fantasia arc and beyond) and I've been thinking about how Guts will end up posing any kind of threat to Griffith, especially after he got his ass handed to him on Elfhelm. One thing that I actually didn't notice on the first 2 reads was that on one stroke of his Dragonslayer, Guts was able to cut a single strand of hair off of Griffiths head.
Now a lot of things have been pointing to Dragonslayer being a special sword. We all know how dangerous it is in the hands of Guts, but as he started to kill more and more apostles and other creatures of the astral realm, his blade started to develop special qualities. When he first got his sword, it was just a hunk of iron. But then by end the of the Millennium Falcon arcs, he was able to harm literal sea gods and the pseudo forms of the God Hand.
I think Guts' sword is being tempered to injure Griffith on a deeper plain of the astral realm.
Maybe the last step for Guts is to kill a godhand?
Thoughts?
