Is it just me, or does anyone else find the love scene between Casca and Guts in Vol. 10 romantic and somewhat relatable?

I don't know if any of you have ever been in a relationship with someone who's suicidal, was molested through-out childhood, then had their virginity taken by rape from someone that you both knew. When "intimate things happen between them" one can't help but wonder if what they're doing only reminds the other of the events they've repressed from in their memory from childhood. You can't call them beautiful even though they are, because it will trigger they're equivalent to a Nam trip and they're depression kicks into gear.

Well, how do I put this... When you're a cartoonist and working at home you sit at your desk pretty much all day. You get most of your information about the world from the news on TV. I think that's how most cartoonists spend their days. And then I start to see the whole picture of my point of view towards all the problems that are happening in the world. An average working man living in an average world would have a personal problem. He'd be worried about how his kids are doing in school. But I live in isolation, watching the world only on the news on TV so I start to see the bigger picture. I can look at the world from another angle. I'm not talking about one specific event. If I see news about war in another country of if there's a massacre somewhere in Japan I just look at the world objectively. Religious cults or acts of atrocity have been the topics of the news recently. When I hear those stories, not that I want to find some kind of answer, but it makes me want to visualize what's happening. I just want to see it in my world in my own way. The idea becomes clearer and polished in the process. I think I've said this in an interview before, but when I learned about Tsuchizoku and Futsuzoku [note from Aazealh: refers to the Tutsi and the Hutu], it did influence Berserk. I was writing Berserk watching the incident on the news. And a little while later I wrote about mass psychology in Berserk. I believe that incident made me want to write about it so I would understand it myself. In the beginning, about up to volume five, I was still writing stuff that I had thought of when I was in college. So my real life reflected a lot in the stories in the beginning. And after a while, I started to see the bigger picture.
