Oh these chapters make me happy! Yes, with Farnese there, it’s a big burden lifted off of Guts’s shoulders! He can relax some what and even mentor Isidro. We are treated to some sweet scenes of the sword training that is so different to what Guts when though as a child. The new squad? Yes.................... I would say that magic is the logical flip side of what we have seen so far in Berserk. It does bring a shift in tone some what, but I like it. So, what is magic anyway? We shall see.
