Small correction here: Griffith did not only reintroduce malevolent astral entities. You can see unicorns as well as an elf in the Blast.

[@DIEGhostfish]

Interesting so benevolent creatures CAN ride the World Tree into the physical world without needing a Spirit Tree to help them manifest. I wonder if Puck's association with all the nevative energy of Guts's brand and sword and the Behelit itself will let him remanifest when the others who are so used to just the Spirit Tree's purified energy would have a harder time.

But it happened when other spirit trees still existed in many parts of the world. Now Griffith & godhands have a total monopoly access to astral planes via arguably the one & only (titanic) spirit tree, which is also an apostle-made one btw...

[@Rusty_Spy]

I really like this theory as it touches on an aspect of the berserk world that I feel gets overlooked by too many people, the power of humanities collective unconscious. The further this story progresses the more I understand why the Idea of Evil "revealed too much" and was cut; it basically spells out the source of the godhands power and what may/will be what undoes them. They only exist because humanity subconsciously desires them, and their actions, Griffith's included, have been focused around perpetuating this frame of mind that feeds their existence. What makes the godhand so powerful is that they're less physical beings and more of an IDEA, and like an idea, you can't physically kill one, it only dies when people no longer believe in it. It's what I feel explains Griffith's "destiny" and how everything goes his way, Griffith the Messiah is an idea now, so the way fate seems to always go his way is because his followers collective consciousness is so strong that they will it so; the flow of causality is influenced by the collective unconscious. All this to say this is what I believe is going to be how Griffith and the godhand are defeated, in short it's going to come down to humanity's collective consciousness being influenced enough that it weakens the godhand's influence over them and I believe Guts and his party are going to have a hand in that as they represent what humanity is capable of without the need for a savior like Griffith

Something to add in regards about the merrows disappearing is that no merrow appeared before the Shiva incident. They appeared just right after, at the same time it was said that elfhelm appeared in the physical world after the incident. Finally, the merrows knew the path to wlfhelm, so it seems that they actually are somehow attached to the island, so it is coherent to expect they would dissapear as well.

[@ToneSherpa]

It gets even crazier when you realize what exactly is the thing that BROUGHT Chitch, and Flora's tree, and Danan's tree into the real world. It's death. Something has to die or be sacrificed to materialize these things. -Skull Knight sacrificed "the original lords of the island" to bring Danan's tree into the world. -Chitch had a long line of individual prisoners. -I wonder what had to die for Flora's tree.. was it a battle ground? Or did Flora herself have to sacrifice something? Even Falconia itself seems to have sprung up in the wake of a bunch of death, although it seems it had more to do with Ganishka's death and Skull Knight's sword and all that, than just a simple sacrifice.

[@DIEGhostfish]

I am not so sure about that. I don't think skull knight ever says he killed the Fomorians (I'm calling them that because that's basically what they are, dark beings who predated the Children of Danan in irish myth and were driven underground)

[@ToneSherpa]

@@DIEGhostfish He never explicitly says "I killed those people" but it is heavily implied. I mean, it's either him or Void who did it.

I love how much this situational dependence upon powerful evil forces (the Apostles), that Griffith has generated by merging the world with the astral realm, adds to what the apostles and Godhand can be seen as representing in a real world historical sense. That being said, not all of the creatures introduced into the world from the astral realm are hostile. I remember seeing certain panels of elves interacting with children during the whole intro to the Fantasia arc. It just seems that the newfound presence of monsters in the world outweighs the presence of those more positive beings.

The demon child then shows some caution when he’s the moonlight boy and Keeps his distance. But he does love his dad he tries to get the amour off Daddy Guts.

[@crozraven]

I like your theory but I think you are missing key aspects to this whole ordeals. But before I propose my theory, I like to explain in the simple terms on the key roles of "behelit" & "spirit tree." Behelit is like a "gate" to the astral world. It can open the astral world of abyss itself but it can only activated via causality & in a ritualistic manners. Basically it's inconvenience for Griffith & Godhands for what they are trying to achieve . Meanwhile we have "Spirit tree." Spirit tree can be best described as a "bridge" the astral worlds itself. It's a far more effective transformation & connection between material & spiritual realms. The of course the grand plan theory. I think it's about "MONOPOLY." Godhands are the very "elites" that have the exclusive privileges to a forced insidious "gates" like behelits. Now with the Ganishka world tree aka the "apostle" spirit tree be the only remaining spirit tree in the world itself, they have the monopoly of total control of the astral worlds connection. This is signifying the ultimate goal of their god of the abyss aka the "ultimate causality." I still personally do not know what godhands (especially Void) wanna do with the "Ultimate Causality," but it make so much sense if you think it in such macro way, with everything they did for a millennia or so, so far. coincidencely (or not?), I think this whole scenario actually becoming so similar with Elden ring, the roles of golden tree in the land in between & world tree in Berserk world. I think Miyazaki has decoded/understood this long time ago, especially when it comes to the alchemical & philosophical aspects of the whole thing. I really recommend that you watch "Max Derrat" videos for this connection to magic & alchemy aspects.

[@thesaucefather1017]

I’ll check it out!

[@DIEGhostfish]

I can kinda see it, but I am not sure they have such total control over the world tree. I think it predates the God hand, Ganishka was just made into an effigy of the preexisting Astral or realm of ideas world tree and used to summon it fortb.

[@crozraven]

@@DIEGhostfish It could be, but I would say that I prefer to make a distinction between the "natural" spirit trees & the "apostle made" spirit tree.

I like this theory of there being potentially countless layers of astral planes, because one thing in my MInd truly cement s this theory ; daemons. Flora lived on as a daemon as do most all humans with great magical attunement do, yet no hint of daemons have popped up yet as constants that now physically or at Least permanently exist in the actual Berserk world. I think the astral roar brought many astral creatures fully into the physical world , while also pulling others closer but not fully into it. This is especially applicable to the god Hand and to Daemons.

[@crozraven]

Of course there are countless of astral planes as some of it also created & exist from human minds. I would even say that each godhands have their own territory of astral planes (as seen in some panels from the manga). This is especially evident with Slan hold a dominion of "qlipoth," back in troll horde arc. I would say that the roots or branches of spirit trees are the bridges over this countless astral planes.

Does anyone else think the behelit is gonna activate and guts is going to become an apostle?

[@the_shadow_realm5110]

Not too dissimilar to what is happening right now on Earth. Be on guard. Do not worship any false gods. The battle is truly upon us.

[@reaperofthegrey7294]

i think its going to only be those who havnt had a strong connectiom to the physical plane... cause guts still needs to fight that dragon

[@jpremier5743]

The new arc starts after chapter 370. The final arc

[@mr.brightside2665]

Anyone remember those cgi cinematic deepfakes of videos and they just add like Cthulhu or a dragon to make it look real? I want one of those but with Gannishka in his Shiva form

[@rubengarza30]

Holy fuck why didn’t I think of this story when everyone disappeared

[@rssy3819]

Imagine a future in the last chapters of the manga the skull knight gets off his horse and stands side by side with guts to fight god hand in a last epic battle to decide the fate of the world

[@exiaR2x78]

what if that was the last spirit tree which was why the Merrow disappeared too?

[@eldraque4556]

nice, like it, in eastern philosophy wood/wind means penetration, connecting heaven and earth for example, like language connecting mind and body😶‍🌫

[@GN_SapoVerde]

The aplostles kinda looks like the "literal" form of the angels in the bible

[@whitedragoness23]

How so? I saw a video of what some angels look like according to the Bible and they had a demon look to them. Multiple heads, giants with tons of eyes and many wings… Angels are supposed to be harbinger of death right?

[@GN_SapoVerde]

@@whitedragoness23 exactly like that, monsters hard to believe and undestand by our simple brains

[@murasakilancelot7909]

@@whitedragoness23 Demons don’t look like that all, but ok. Regardless, I don’t agree with anyone here.

[@bryanrodriguez9226]

Is the manga even going on ?

[@Demonologo666]

Did you live under a rock in the last few months?

[@taoisttiger4702]

Dang you just gonna jump straight in with no spoiler warnings or nothing?! Jeeee

[@ghost-writer007]

Every place guts go to people die or the whole place is destroyed

[@adriansulek2698]

How do we know there are no Real Demons in the World of Berserk? Like Satan, Belial, Lilith, Azazel etc...The True Gods of Darkness.

The goat demon statue in the Black Swordsman arc is straight up Baphomet.

[@urt1202]

@@nightmarishcompositions4536 griffith oppens the last layer to the idea of evil, only to also open a breach to FUCKING HELL AND A BUNCH OF LITERAL DEMONS START KILLING EVERYTHING ON SITE AND DANCING AROUN BLOOD OF APOSTLES THE GODHAND BEING THE FIRST ONES TO FALL

[@BurghezulDjentilom]

but that's just a theory .... A BERK THEORY

[@AntagonisticArtichoke]

Haven’t gotten to read the chapter yet but does the dragon sword not harm Griffith

[@bambiekila6930]

Yeah but if you look closely when he’s fighting Griffith he manages to cut a single strand of hair. So that something at least

[@JoseHernandez-kl2ng]

I bet my soul next chapter is a Rickert story

[@whitedragoness23]

I bet one penny against your soul….i think it will be focused on guts again.

[@gritfiend]

holy shit

[@gentlesavage2068]

Is it possible to use a behelit to use a behelit ro sacrifice people you hate or used to love but don't anymore, imagine if guts does that with one of the characters in the story?

[@crozraven]

Already confirmed that's not how sacrifice ritual work. Hence why Slug Count unable to presented Guts as sacrifice (ignoring also that he was already branded), while he must sacrifice his daughter Theresia or forever suffered being dragged & tormented on into the Abyss, the Evil Vortex of souls.

[@eliamagri7413]

Why pack can stay? Why could he?

[@ryantitus4640]

I sub because my name is Ryan

[@rmmm6725]

Maybe I missed something but didn’t the creator and author die?

[@whitedragoness23]

Yes he did, this has been already been established and this is the next phase in berserk

[@guts-0077]

fucking goated

[@AchillesofTroy]

Guts will die for humanity like Jesus did and Griffith is obviously the devil only when guts heart is free of pain and sin is when he'll become the true saviour
