If she remains insane anything might happen, but if she becomes sane, well, if I were in her place I wouldn`t rest until I had Griffiths head on a pike.Smith said:If Casca remains insane... I presume she will, if not then she may even help Guts to get him...
Sparnage said:It's hard to explain Griffith and Caska's last meeting at the hill of swords, that is if Caska was attracted to Griffith because she sensed her child within him, still unconsciously saw Griffith so highly like the past or both. The same can be asked for Griffith
Rage Incarnate said:Have you read the manga? Griffith holding his chest saying "this blood of mine that I thought was frozen" and a shot of the child. Yeah nothing at all left of the child. ::)
Rhombaad said:Yeah, but as of yet there's no definite proof. I don't think it is, because the child is the vessel that was used to reincarnate Griffith, so how could it suddenly be manifested as something else? Anyway, that's my opinion.
Aazealh said:I don't think that there's much doubt about this, really. When you look at that scene, everything seems to tell that she's seeing her child, and not Griffith himself (her condition, attitude, and actions). In the same way, he protected her because of the child, it's clearly shown.
Sparnage said:Then I presume the only reason you think Griffith came to see Guts at the hill of swords is because the child within him wants to be near his father.
Aazealh said:No, I don't see where you're getting that. A simple look at the page makes it obvious Griffith acts unconsciously when he goes and protects Casca IMHO, because of the child. However, he states himself that he wanted to see if he felt something for Guts or not. It's two different things, and you can see that he's troubled by his own reaction to Casca.
Joseph Smith said:It may be two different things, but if the Demon child is the only reason Griffith went out of his way to save Caska then his idea to see Guts in the first place could have just as easily been reinforced from the childs affection for Guts as well as Caska.
Joseph Smith said:If i'm not mistaken Skully says the child wants to be with both his parents like any other child.
Joseph Smith said:I'm not saying it wasn't the child to influence Griffiths choice to save Caska, but if it was indeed only Griffiths opinion that made the decision to see Guts purely from nostalgia, IMHO It doesn't seem any different to him saving Caska through old affections.

Griffith's care for Guts and Casca has never been on the same level though... He saves her without even thinking about it from the looks of it, that's not something he would normally do, I think.
Miyu said:I agree with you on this point, but I think that was probably such an underlying issue that it was barely a thought in Griffith's mind. I believe Griffith's main intention was to see if Guts invoked some of those ill feelings he harbored before the Eclipse. The fact that the Demon child wanted to see his father is secondary. Though I think that is an interesting way to think about some of the deeper feelings that Griffith-reborn may encounter. Though I don't think the demon child particularly cared for his father as much as he did his mother.
