I figured this was the best place to post this; but this is bothering me about the Demon Child and Griffith.
Okay, I've seen a lot of posts around here that Griffith specifically intended to use that child's body as a resurrection, hence the rape at the Eclipse. I wanted to believe that too; but I find a few problems with that.
Firstly, Griffith would have no way of knowing that Casca was pregnant at the time, and also from what I saw, he was planning to kill both her and Guts had the Skull Knight not rescued them, so that leaves just him impregnating her out.
Secondly, from what I gathered, it was Egg of the Perfect World which was going to hatch Griffith; that's what he sacrificed himself to do. But, here's the part I recall. He found the child, half dead after protecting Casca and from what I gathered, took pity on it "Let's go together". It just seemed like a huge coincidence to me and that the child was never supposed to be in the reincarnation ceremony.
And, from the fact that Griffith saved Casca later on due to its influence, it's something he clearly wasn't expecting.
So... was it intended to be like that, or was it just a coincidence that it's now a part of Griffith? Everything I've read point to the latter.
