I wanted to make a thread about Griffith.
Griffith is an enigmatic character. But I am of the opinion that Griffith, much like Guts is prior to the Conviction Arc (where he becomes a good person) is a morally grey person. And much like Guts has bipolar 1 disorder from the beginning, Griffith is a sociopath from the beginning, but that doesn't prevent him from caring about people such as Guts and even Casca. I believe he was lying to himself when he said he sees the Band Of The Hawk as tools and not friends, because he claws at himself enough to where he bleeds over the guilt of having to use them in battle, a lot like Guts feels guilt over carrying the sins of other people and being blamed for it. He would also not have been able to sacrifice the Band Of The Hawk if he didn't care for them to an extent.
The reason I compare him to Guts so much is that part of the reason they have such a strong bond is that they both have dark aspects about their personality, but are still human. I know this isn't a common opinion these days, but Femto is clearly different than Griffith, since he is basically morally black.
Do you agree or disagree with my opinion? Discuss.
