He is Guts, the Black Swordsman, a warrior of legendary prowess — relentless, fearless, merciless. As cold and brutal as the iron of the massive sword he wields. Bent on revenge against the unholy forces that have branded him for sacrifice, but especially on Griffith, one of the demon lords of the Godhand. But Griffith was once a man, the leader of the Hawks, a renowned cadre of elite fighters with a young Guts as its fiercest champion. Though forged in a crucible of cruelty and violence, nothing could prepare Guts for a confrontation with Nosferatu Zodd, a superhuman beast who slaughters Guts’ comrades as easily as a scythe cuts wheat. Even Guts and Griffith are no match for the abomination’s power...but something Griffith wears around his neck may well be!

Covers Griffith obtaining his knighthood, and the battle with Nosferatu Zodd. This makes for an interesting chapter, as we see Guts finally warming up to his comrades, and the further hint that something dire is in store for Griffith.
One more episode of Guts and Griffith in the past.
Again we get giant, very detailed action panels that still look amazing. And one on one fights are brutal and insane as always. The plot has even more mysteries and hints for the future.
But I still don't like one particular character which shows no logic in what she does. And I guess, I'm not a fan of some manga features overall—some dialogue lines and too many reaction shots. And there's another abrupt ending here...
However, I'm really invested in the story and setting, so I will read on!
