Line 114:
** [[Spell My Name with an "S"|Her name isn't Shisu. It's Sys. Shisu is the wrongful translation of her name in Romaji, just like Roshinu is Rosine and Femto is Phemt.]]
** Gut's isn't really AWARE of Sys.
* What really bothers me is why Griffith wanted to hold on to Guts so badly. Unless I'm really missing something, it seems like pure [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]. Guts is setting off on his own, which is Griffith's exact own definition of what a true friend would do. Griffith seemed to have no tactical use for Guts at the time he left after winning the duel. The war the Hawks fought for Midland had ended a month ago, and the only way Griffith could advance further seemed to be purely through Princess Charlotte and politics. So was Griffith really as emotionally dependent on and madly in love with Guts as I think he was, or am I missing something big?
** Griffith seemed to have abandonment issues. He wants friends he can respect, but even more so he wants people who will always be with him.
** That and Griffith seems to have an special obsession about Guts since he actualy managed to hurt him in their first encounter, when Griffith was already considered invincible. Griffith probably held Guts in very high regard and he was probably the only person he considered "close to an equal", seeing as how he eventualy becomes his right hand man and personal confident. When Guts actualy managed to defeat him and leave, Griffith probably had an emotional breakdown because not only Guts went against his wishes but also actualy defeated him when he tried to stop Guts. The inability to make his will prevail coupled with losing Guts pushed him through the Despair Event Horizon. Hell, in the manga, Griffith keeps thinking about Guts EVERY DAY after it happens, even while having sex to princess Charlotte and enduring horrible torture and confinement. If anything this is a canon headscratcher, Casca says Griffith never acted that way towards anyone through all the years she's been in the band of the hawk.
