Anime and Manga - New Season

[Gorth]

Dandadan… I watched episode 9 and have by now given up trying to even attempt explain it

 

For something slightly slower paced I started watching something called Secrets of the Silent witch. I’m only two episodes in but liking it so far

As I see it there are three possibilities.

Spoiler

I'm thinking Guts will assimilate his shadow self (the beast of darkness) and thus become something that can actually challenge the God Hand (similar to Flora, not an apostle but like a level 15+ Fighter/Barbarian with supernatural powers), but he could make some sort of devil's bargain with the entity that sees him similarly transformed but more monstrous with a promise of a (more) bittersweet ending like Komamura in Bleach. The least likely is that he rejects the beast entirely, but the way it's been setup I don't think that's very thematic or interesting and it also leaves too much on the table.

Anyways it's nice to see it moving forward. Hopefully he doesn't spend 3 years inside of himself or wake up to find his friends got the same treatment Bruce's friends got in Absolute Batman.

Could be, in my mind it was either him overcoming the darkness or accepting it and harnessing it.

I had the same feel, like starting the boat trip again. I don't think that will ever happen as the crew working on it now is being very lean with dialogue and just using it to move the story forward. So I can see this being 5 chapters max.

I just read through Absolute Superman today and wasn't that impressed with it, hopefully batman is better.
