I can't believe Casca's first words were, "Berserk is on hiatus again"

yeah, why would they make Casca forgive Griffith for everything and reform the band of the hawk together?

4-5 chapter batches is pretty average for Miura at this point, honestly I'm just grateful this one made it so far. I'm a little more worried about whether or not it says anything about when the series picks up again (this summer/sometime in fall) since Miura usually sticks to his schedule, even an extremely vague one. No indication usually seems to mean "see you next year, maybe!"

I have seen some of the pages from this chapter and whoever has been complaining about Miura's art being wack now will have to eat their words.

Though Caska does look a bit more fairy-ish than she did before.

Josuke Higashikata

That's likely intentional, and she does appear to be draw a bit more like her old form back closer to the end of the Golden Age.

That being said, Miura's recent art for the characters has been very hit and miss by his standards. Latter end of Millennium Falcon was the sweet spot for his characters, imo, but if you think about it, that was also a very long time ago.

It's definitely intentional, as the text explicitly says she looks different, like an amalgam of both of her past selves.

That's just the big cherry blossom tree in the elf place. Griffith isn't approaching. Caska's memories of what happened have come back through and she's pulling a Laura Palmer.
Sigh. Now to wait six months to see if she be able to process her grief with Guts and they'll both cry a lot and try to overcome it together or if she's gonna be repulsed by him and unable to deal with the pain. I thought they already did the therapy with the dream but there's still so much more to go!
Goddamn it.

I think the dream work to restore her was so she could process what happened to her without breaking down immediately, but that she still has to process it consciously, not to mention everything that's happened since.

I can't wait for the translation so I can actually tell what's going on.

read a speed scan that's going around

burst out laughing at the sight of Casca in her fairy dress

There's something very surreal about this chapter, I dunno, it's kinda like the dream isn't quite finished? Like, reality has now radically shifted with Casca being awake, but we don't get to feel that thanks to the fairy queen stepping in and distracting us from it. We don't get to really witness the new reality before it comes crashing down.

I'm glad that Casca remembers the gang, but holy poo poo it's really cruel to have her forget about the eclipse until the moment she saw Guts. This isn't gonna end well. :smith:

She has pleasant memories of him when she's wearing the dress, even after the eclipse; its just when she specifically sees what he looks like now, the worry probably shadowing over his face and the reality that he cares with him is the bombshell of the eclipse all over again. The face of a man remorseful that he abandoned her to seek vengeance, or more likely to die in a battle with some hellspawn. The man possessed by a monster that almost made him kill her. The human wallowing in the blood of who knows how many slain people and apostles. A walking mass of scars just like her.
