I know this is a newbish question but .. is Skullknight a normal man in skull armor or is he actually dead and just surviving through that form? Also, is he an Apostle?
Well, this has been talked about frequently in previous threads, I'll post links if I get to it in the morning.Tell Me Why said:I know this is a newbish question but .. is Skullknight a normal man in skull armor or is he actually dead and just surviving through that form? Also, is he an Apostle?
Headless Death said:First, Guts' brand does not bleed around him, so we know he is not an apostle.
Headless Death said:Second, we know that he was the previous owner of the berserk armor, and as such Schierke had said the previous owner died in the armor.
Headless Death said:Third, when the Skull Knight eats a Beherit hollow sound effects are given, so we know he is hollow inside. So it would seem most likely to be a dead man living through this form.
There's just a bit more to it than that. I'd suggest reading further into the manga before pointing fingers as speculations.Hideo said:I have read in here that the SK is over 1000 years old, so he definitely isn't a mere man. He is probably animating something, some kind of armor (really? No Shit). Its motives, well, they are clouded at the moment. But he (supposedly) knows something that we don't, something that Guts will do, or something.
