Changes: Episode 20 (Manga)

Revision as of 03:10, 19 October 2014

Template:Chapter Prepared For Death (3) (決死行(3), Kesshikō (3)^?) is the 20th chapter of the Berserk manga series.

Summary

Guts urges Casca to leave. With her path cleared, Casca decides to run, but she promises to return with Griffith and the Hawks to rescue Guts. Guts blocks the soldiers from chasing after her, killing anyone who tries to get around him. The soldiers distance themselves from him, coming to the realization that Guts is too strong a foe for them to face. Adon urges them to fight, but the soldiers are hesitant.

After some deliberation, the soldiers decide to attack all at once. Guts meets them eagerly head-on.

As she runs through the forest, Casca trips over a protruding root. She notices there are soldiers behind her, giving chase. She raises her sword, but doesn't fight for long, due to her pain and fever.

Guts continues to fight Adon's soldiers. He cuts through his enemies as though they're butter. Eventually, a crossbow bolt flies to his face, but he blocks it with his bare hand. This new handicap prevents him from wielding his enormous sword two-handed, as intended in its use.

Meanwhile, the soldiers chasing Casca have caught up. Despite her attempts to fight back, they manage to knock her down and disarm her. The soldiers decide they want to violate her before killing her, and begin the process of removing her armor and tearing her tunic open. She remembers her earlier conversation with Guts, who told her to return to Griffith. Snapping out of her submission, she feels for a broken tree branch on the ground, and uses it to impale the soldier pinning her down in the eye.

Suddenly liberated, Casca dives for her sword. Her self-rescue is cut short by Judeau and a large group of Hawks, who've come to rescue Casca and Guts.
