So does anyone think the new spirit is the moon boy's protector? That could explain why the croc went away once it made eye contact with him in 240.
Vritannis is so close, yet so far away. I want to see if some people's speculation about Azan coming back into the story are true or not.
Re:Gut's Desires For Sacrifice
Guts couldn't sacrifice Caska even if he wanted to: she's branded for sacrifice already & can't be used again.
I doubt Guts will sacrifice his companions (Farnese, Serpico, Isidro, etc.) if he wants to stay human/out of God Hand's possession, but I do believe...
I guess that pic adds weight to the "moon child = Guts'/Caska's child" theory. That or Guts is hallucinating in his state of mind. I hope it's the former.
Ganishka is the Kushan Emperor taking/who's taken over Midland. He's an apostle who's going against Griffith & his Band of the Hawk/Falcon. I haven't read any translation that links him directly to God Hand.
