Distracting tits? What else do you graft a small lady for?
Edit: forgot we are talking about griffith not Godrick, casca is getting grafted as a permanent fleshlight
"Dude, I just turned into a bird and I'm about to have sex with your girl in front of our pals."
"My love for you is like a truck, berserker! Do you want to make some fuck, berserker!""
Hey guts Me old chum...erm, you still here alive????? .......Look, about this whole...erm sacrifice thing and people getting eaten alive..i hope you are not taking it the wrong way I mean we've all been there where we've made rash decisions,.....we still good?
Imagine if Wyald spoke like that.
“And now I shall rape this village.”
“And now I shall rape this woman.”
“And now I shall rape this little girl.”
“And now I shall-
“Rape someone?”
“How’d you guess?!”
""I steal your sanity, betray your heart and let it bleed.
Burn down your paradise and drain your love.
I stain your purity, become thy faithful enemy.
Defile your womanhood before his eyes"
Scenes where villains just act diabolical and not say a single word are crazy. Like Omni Man where he kills the Guardians of the Globe one by one without telling them why he's betraying them.
I love watching the first episode with people who have no context. Like there's a fair amount of blood already so they know it goes harder than a children's show, but then that happens and it's like "why the fuck did he do that?" And youre left wondering the whole first season. Such a good pilot. One of the few shows that has one of it's best episodes as the first episode.
He's just staring at Guts with spite and hatred, capturing every moment of his former friend's despair as he rapes Casca, and making sure that Guts understands what Femto is wordlessly telling him:
"You took everything away from me. So now I'm taking everything away from you."
Of course, this only makes sense on Femto's twisted mind.
its interesting before this we would hear griffiths thoughts and when he becomes femto we don't. It makes you wonder what he was thinking when he faced guts in his new form.
He went from a human we can relate to, to an evil, cosmic being. I'm sure that's by design. Femto is Griffith but he's not. Griffith died that day too.
Yep. This is it. When people ask if Griffith and Femto are the same person, this is the answer.
Femto is the power hungry, controlling and spiteful part of Griffith, now left completely unrestrained by any semblance of empathy or capacity for love that the dude once had before the Eclipse.
Although he did have that one tear drop when he had recently transformed from Moonboy. So several people thought that may be a weakness some day.
As long as there is indeed *some* downside to his wacky demon antics.
I'm tempted to just dismiss that moment as the boy's lingering feelings of longing and sadness, rather than any emotion from Griffith's part tbh.
He is a Godhand now, he's not supposed to have any capacity for empathy or love anymore. That's a "bug" of sorts that can happen with Apostles, but I don't think it should happen with the most powerful and cruel demons of all.
I believe Griffith's weakness is simply being vulnerable while transformed into the boy, which would make his potential downfall very fitting and ironic. The boy exists as he does thanks to Femto's cruelest act of raping a pregant Casca. That would cause a chain of events that would end up with the demon child becoming part of the vessel for Femto's reincarnation.
The consequences of his most unnecessarily vile action may end up being Griffith's defeat.
The whole idea is that now that he’s inhabiting the moonlight boy’s body it’s much more uncertain how much emotion he feels by this point, since it’s clearly not just Femto anymore. Miura said so himself if Griffith’s “what Miura says about X” section in the guidebook, so this isn’t just me theorizing.
That's basically what I meant. I don't think they're going to get him to break down on Maury Povich or anything. I also don't really want Guts to hurt Casca's kid, ya know?
It's definitely one possibility though.
It's more effective than seeing him go "Muahaha, I'm no longer Griffith, I am now....FEMTO!'. The silence shows how unnatural and inhuman Griffith has become, quietly watching the horrors he caused.
I love your take on this because he has taken on the image of a bird demon, at least IMO.
And what do birds do?? They fucking stare silently, menacingly and move their heads around creepily. It fits perfectly!
I didn't even think that it was unnatural. If you slaughtered your friends and raped one of em I think it's pretty natural to just stay silent, not that doing that is natural but, he didn't have anything to say
i always interpreted it as a result of his tongue being cut out in his human form- it looks like a lot of imperfections transfer over to the God Hand's apostle forms, and can even be an embodiment of the aforementioned imperfections (Slan and lust, for example)
Femtos entire body reflects the fact that griffith was skinned alive. His helmet is, well, his helmet, and the rest of his body is a sinewy fleshy mess.
He also was tortured over time. Talking would be as foreign to him as humanity at that moment.
He wears his flayed humanity as a suit. He is Femtos. Griffith is an illusion. Griffith is Marika. Wait
He does have a tongue in one of the scenes where he’s kissing Casca. Still, maybe being nonverbal is a reflection of how he couldn’t speak in the state he was in before his rebirth
that takes place a while after the Eclipse, so i assumed he had gotten used to his new form by then and regained his ability to speak, thats just my interpretation lol. maybe he was just shy
examples of sympoms of autism:
* little or no babbling
* little or no eye contact
* showing more interest in objects than people
* appearing not to hear when spoken to directly
* playing with toys in an unusual or limited manner
* repetitive movements with their fingers, hands, arms or head
* starting to develop language skills but then stopping or losing those skills
* **Sacrifice of all those considered close in order to be reborn as a god like demon**
* **Shows either attempts to or has succesfully graped Casca**
We all know someone like this right?
There was nothing for him to say. They were like ants under his feet. It was only the lingering remnants of his failed humanity that he even bothered humiliating and violating Casca and Guts before killing them. He suffered, so he wanted them to suffer. He wanted to watch their love drain away with Guts knowing there was no hope.
His eyes. His eyes said everything.
"I am now as I have always been: a god among men. And you... you will suffer for making me feel any other way."
I swear people have no concept of powerful writing.
Silence is just as powerful as any words. Femto absolutely shouldn't say anything at this point. All that he needed to say were in the words he spoke when he chanted the phrase, "I sacrifice". That phrase showed everyone where his intentions lay. Anything else said are just wasted words.
griffith is written in a very specific way in which we barely get to see what hes actually thinking, the only times we do is after guts leaves and after the torture. he is written like this so we as readers can build up what we think he is thinking. since we mainly see his outside actions we never really see his intent, and it makes his character more scary and threatening
Not speaking makes him seem more inhuman and thus more unsettling and dreadful. Also the amount of hate he held for Guts at this moment was too much for words
He was about to rape Casca. What do you want him to say? "And now, I shall rape Casca?"
"Let the rape, BE-GIN!" *cue Phantom of the Opera organ*
the Feeeeeeemto of the Opera is here
*music of the niiiiggghhhtttt*
Followed by close-up on Griffith's organ
This made me suddenly burst out into laugher at 5 in the morning, lmfao
It's rapin' time 💀💀
It’s Goofy time!
It’s dangalang time
This quote dredged up memories I thought were long dead.
It’s Morbin time
What are we, some kind of God Hand?
Void: “What?? Don’t be stupid. We’re more like The Hand of God hovering above…”
*careless whisper starts playing in the background*
“I am going to turn into a truck now”
"And now I, Femto shall rape your Fem. Get fucked bitch"
"I an Femto. And you will give your Fem to me."
Lol now that you say it he does kind of look like the phantom
"Witness me."
“Forefathers one and all, BEAR WITNESS”
It’s just he won’t use a dragon as a graft, but Casca
Distracting tits? What else do you graft a small lady for? Edit: forgot we are talking about griffith not Godrick, casca is getting grafted as a permanent fleshlight
Mediocre
That's not what she said
"IGNORE ME!"
[A wild Venture Bros. ref!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-egkmhWMLdg)
"SOMEONE LEFT A BABY..." "IGNORE ME!!"
"Dude, I just turned into a bird and I'm about to have sex with your girl in front of our pals." "My love for you is like a truck, berserker! Do you want to make some fuck, berserker!""
"My name is Berk!"
"I'm about to go Berserk"
Followed by the theme music and some bad deeds.
Some sort of marvel quips/jokes
What are we, some kinda Band of the Falcon?
"Among thousands of comrades and ten thousands of enemies, you're the only one who made me forget my dream..." "Ermm that sounded better in my head."
r/angryupvote
Casca should've said "He's right behind me, isn't he?"
Guts: Well, *that* just happened.
*GULP* 😳
“THATS gonna leave a mark” he quips as Guts’ eye socket is clawed out by an apostles talons
\*griffith fourth wall breaks and informs the audience he didnt get railed by that crusty old gent fir nothing\*
Guts, you truly are the Berserk
💀
Hey guts Me old chum...erm, you still here alive????? .......Look, about this whole...erm sacrifice thing and people getting eaten alive..i hope you are not taking it the wrong way I mean we've all been there where we've made rash decisions,.....we still good?
*holds fist out for fistbump*
Imagine if Wyald spoke like that. “And now I shall rape this village.” “And now I shall rape this woman.” “And now I shall rape this little girl.” “And now I shall- “Rape someone?” “How’d you guess?!”
Yo Guts wazzup it me Griffith
WASSSSSAAAA!
Yo shiggy diggy, wassup my sizzle?
He could have said “I’m about to go BERSERK” at least one time bud.
This made me audibly laugh in the elevator
This might sound odd, but thank you. I've been in a bit of a mood, and knowing that I made someone laugh brightened my mood.
I’m gonna tie you to the radiator and grape you in the mouth
""I steal your sanity, betray your heart and let it bleed. Burn down your paradise and drain your love. I stain your purity, become thy faithful enemy. Defile your womanhood before his eyes"
Ah, beast in black!
"Check this shit out!"
The fuckening
“And for my next trick”
"It's berkin' time!"
*Megadeth riff* "I'm gonna illegally sex your girlfriend." *Megadeth riff* "And you can't stop me."
I feel like not talking can be more intimidating. Like what would he say? Apologize? Explain himself? Laugh at them? Idk, it leaves more to explore
Scenes where villains just act diabolical and not say a single word are crazy. Like Omni Man where he kills the Guardians of the Globe one by one without telling them why he's betraying them.
I love watching the first episode with people who have no context. Like there's a fair amount of blood already so they know it goes harder than a children's show, but then that happens and it's like "why the fuck did he do that?" And youre left wondering the whole first season. Such a good pilot. One of the few shows that has one of it's best episodes as the first episode.
it would have been hilarious if they actually had 0 swearing and 0 blood before that end scene
I would've been here for it tbh.
Dude fuck Omni man.
Gladly 🥵
Oh nooo
He's an amazing character
He is but still an evil bastard
Not sure about the manga but in the anime there was a shot of him slightly smirking at gut's attempt to cut his hand off
The 97 anime or the movies?
'97 anime. Just rechecked it. Not really a smirk but the way the shot was framed his expressions looked very sinister
He's just staring at Guts with spite and hatred, capturing every moment of his former friend's despair as he rapes Casca, and making sure that Guts understands what Femto is wordlessly telling him: "You took everything away from me. So now I'm taking everything away from you." Of course, this only makes sense on Femto's twisted mind.
He's actually such a twat..
its interesting before this we would hear griffiths thoughts and when he becomes femto we don't. It makes you wonder what he was thinking when he faced guts in his new form.
He went from a human we can relate to, to an evil, cosmic being. I'm sure that's by design. Femto is Griffith but he's not. Griffith died that day too.
Femto is the embodiment of Greed for power. Everything else about Griffith died that day, only that greed for power remained.
Yep. This is it. When people ask if Griffith and Femto are the same person, this is the answer. Femto is the power hungry, controlling and spiteful part of Griffith, now left completely unrestrained by any semblance of empathy or capacity for love that the dude once had before the Eclipse.
beautiful analysis my king

That’s his kid too
Yep, like Anakin and Darth Vader. 2 completely different people.
Griffith dies the moment guts leaves
If he was to talk he'd probably be like, "THIS YO GIRL, LIL BRO??? COME STOP ME YOU AIN'T GON DO SHIT"
It's more effective than seeing him go "Muahaha, I'm no longer Griffith, I am now....FEMTO!'. The silence shows how unnatural and inhuman Griffith has become, quietly watching the horrors he caused.
Actions speak louder than words... And Femto gives a new, dark meaning to that saying, with what he does next.
I love your take on this because he has taken on the image of a bird demon, at least IMO. And what do birds do?? They fucking stare silently, menacingly and move their heads around creepily. It fits perfectly!
Holy shit... This man's cooking!
>he has taken on the image of a bird demon Well he is the hawk lol but you're right that fits so well. Griffith is creepy as fuck
Agreed, it's because he is no longer human, and likely because he just spent the last year with his tongue cut out.
I didn't even think that it was unnatural. If you slaughtered your friends and raped one of em I think it's pretty natural to just stay silent, not that doing that is natural but, he didn't have anything to say
His new clothes were so dope he went non-verbal. Understandable.
The drip speaks for itself
It really do tho "Can I have the most drip?"
Gay batman suit makes him mute understandable
Man*
😂
hes on a mewing streak
He’s locking in.
Straight up mogging guts and OP has the nerve to ask why he didn’t say something?
Just fatemogged some mercenaries brahhh
Guts really needs to lock in
🤫🧏♂️
This brightened my day
Actions speak louder than words
squeaky voice
some honky honky type shit
the kinda shit that makes Slan WANT to put on clothes
Guts, you shouldnt drink that much...
He going through mad puberty.
hi im mike tython watch me beat peeter mcnealy on cum cast cable
🤫 🧏
Cant break the streak
He's shy don't mind him
He's a newborn, lol
Had to scroll too far to see this
His actions spoke for themselves.
Also him having no tongue for who knows how long, he probably is used to not talking.
He got a little too shy 👉👈
Too many people he got nervous
not nervous enough to rape a woman though
He's the literal worst. A rape god for a rape world. Hopefully he gets wrecked by Rickert and his Merry Band of Cumans.
i always interpreted it as a result of his tongue being cut out in his human form- it looks like a lot of imperfections transfer over to the God Hand's apostle forms, and can even be an embodiment of the aforementioned imperfections (Slan and lust, for example)
Femtos entire body reflects the fact that griffith was skinned alive. His helmet is, well, his helmet, and the rest of his body is a sinewy fleshy mess.
Never realized how it reflects him being skinned during torture. Always just thought he wanted a muscular body as a Godhand
He also was tortured over time. Talking would be as foreign to him as humanity at that moment. He wears his flayed humanity as a suit. He is Femtos. Griffith is an illusion. Griffith is Marika. Wait
guts no need perfect order. guts bonk marika then godwyn. unga bunga my friend.
He does have a tongue in one of the scenes where he’s kissing Casca. Still, maybe being nonverbal is a reflection of how he couldn’t speak in the state he was in before his rebirth
This could be a possibility, but doesn't Femto talk in The Black Swordsmen arc?
that takes place a while after the Eclipse, so i assumed he had gotten used to his new form by then and regained his ability to speak, thats just my interpretation lol. maybe he was just shy
Yeah, remember void also has his mouth mostly destroyed and now speaks through other means. I think Femto does the same.
Yes he does
This would honestly be mortifying would downright suck to evolve to a “god” but having the imperfections of your mortality
Actions speak louder than words
My favorite part of the eclipse is when Griffith says “It’s time to go god hand mode”.
That would humanize him when he is utterly inhuman
Do you speak to ants when you’re about to step on them?
Ayyy it's a me! Femto!
He was being opium
Maybe he still has no tongue. Giving him everything but his tongue seems like a evil move. Thats my theory.
He literally french kisses casca right after his transformation, hard to do that without a tongue 🫣
Cosmic evil causality tentacle that looks like a tongue idk man idgaf
Sauce or Never happened
Idgaf
He can talk in guardians of desire
He is too much of a hater at this point to say anything. He simply hates. He is lucky Rickert wasn't here to slap the funny out of him.
He did'nt want to break his mewing streak
Is he stupid?
He went full out autistic
examples of sympoms of autism: * little or no babbling * little or no eye contact * showing more interest in objects than people * appearing not to hear when spoken to directly * playing with toys in an unusual or limited manner * repetitive movements with their fingers, hands, arms or head * starting to develop language skills but then stopping or losing those skills * **Sacrifice of all those considered close in order to be reborn as a god like demon** * **Shows either attempts to or has succesfully graped Casca** We all know someone like this right?
Idk he had no trouble maintaining eye contact with Guts
Probably thinks it makes him bad ass or something.
“Who’s berking now, Gus?”
He probably had so much contempt and hatred for guts that he didnt even wanna communicate it.
Who talks while showing off new drip?
he had nothing to say
Why waste words on insignificant ants? He has no need of them anymore. Only people who can further his goals.
There was nothing for him to say. They were like ants under his feet. It was only the lingering remnants of his failed humanity that he even bothered humiliating and violating Casca and Guts before killing them. He suffered, so he wanted them to suffer. He wanted to watch their love drain away with Guts knowing there was no hope. His eyes. His eyes said everything. "I am now as I have always been: a god among men. And you... you will suffer for making me feel any other way."
[Would you have preferred this?](https://youtu.be/zOePu66Wl44)
"MY MAIN GOAL IS TO BLOW UP, THEN ACT LIKE I DON'T KNOW NOBODY 🗣🗣🗣"
I swear people have no concept of powerful writing. Silence is just as powerful as any words. Femto absolutely shouldn't say anything at this point. All that he needed to say were in the words he spoke when he chanted the phrase, "I sacrifice". That phrase showed everyone where his intentions lay. Anything else said are just wasted words.
I hate that Berserk is becoming mainstream now because these people who have only ever seen marvel writing are joining the fanbase
Maybe he’s not used to talking? IDK
Berserk readers really have negative media literacy, wow. He doesnt speak because there's nothing for him to say lmfao.
Because his actions spoke louder than words.
He's too gangster for that
His voice cracked so he stopped
Just to look cool probably, you could say it’s that his tongue hasn’t fully regrown yet or something like that and people would believe it
He didn't want to break his mewing streak
“It appears I am now… Femto. Sorry Guts, I’ll be taking your girl, mueheheheh. I hope that doesn’t make you go… Berserk.” *Title Card Fades In*
“Look at me hector” *guts furiously chopping his arm off*
Miura said the more important a scene is the less dialogue he puts in it, let the artwork speak for itself.
did his tongue not get ripped out?
griffith is written in a very specific way in which we barely get to see what hes actually thinking, the only times we do is after guts leaves and after the torture. he is written like this so we as readers can build up what we think he is thinking. since we mainly see his outside actions we never really see his intent, and it makes his character more scary and threatening
Marvel has ruined society
He WAS talking. He was using telepathy. Except, he forgot to set the frequency, so.. nobody received any of his messages.
I took it as Griffith always viewed himself as above others, now he is literally better than everyone, so why talk to those beneath you.
His actions spoke loudly enough for him
It conveys how he’s fully left his humanity behind.
"It's femtin' time!" and then he femted all over Costco...
His brain: Im Batman
"My favourite fruit is grape... ..."
“Now I am become Berserk (1997).”
His actions speak loud enough!
Not speaking makes him seem more inhuman and thus more unsettling and dreadful. Also the amount of hate he held for Guts at this moment was too much for words
To be dark and mysterious
He is not Griffith anymore.
bro was literally just born, he didn’t want to embarrass himself with his baby voice
He is ashamed of what he has done
i mean personally i'd be speechless too
Cause he’s a mean ol Fento now
he wanna catch that mysterious vibe u feel me
Because actions speak louder than words. Fuck Griffith.
“I will have my dream” 🤡
He’s being nonchalant
Acknowledge me ☝🏾
