In fact, it doesn’t even matter if he’s Cedric or not, because it’s selfish of him anyway to bring some members of our!Ciel’ and Frances’ family back from the dead, when it’s for sure going to make them feel horrible if he succeeds.
Look at the twin, we don’t even know yet if UT holds any responsibility for the current arc, although it’s very possible he does, but Lizzie felt constantly miserable for at least two months already…
and it’s probably going to be our!Ciel’s turn very soon.
Let’s just say that it’s UT’s duality as a character, his devotion and selfishness completely clash, so I sure wouldn’t want to be in our!Ciel’s and Frances’ shoes either if he ever manages to bring back more than just the twin (which I hope he won’t, really).
so I’m sure she’ll manage if she’s to ever confront UT about what he’s doing.
Thanks for passing by Anon and have a nice day. 🙂
“his devotion and his selfishness completely clash” ooooh
This is about seem cracky but bear with me
It’s interesting, if we are taking the GrandpaUT theory as correct, that his “love” for his dead family is actually making things completely worse for the living AND dead. Like, if he truly loved them he’d leave them alone and let them Rest In Peace. So, it definitely seems like he’s more obsessed with having them close to him/alive, moreso than being happy.
Which, if you think, is kinda what RCiel is doing? “I’m never going to leave your side again”
I definitely think that UT’s devotion to the P family (whatever the reasons are) is making things worse in most aspects (that’s why sometimes I compare him to Kelvin), except maybe when it comes to possibly being a major help towards the contract binding our!Ciel with Seb. x)
As for real!Ciel, if you’re speaking of his current behavior (ch129, ch130) it’s most likely the way he was brought back (with the “episode” method?) that emphasized his obsessive side from childhood for me.
However I do agree that his obsessive side that we saw already in the flashback might be a family trait, I mean Ed is also rather… attached to his sister (although it’s not expressed in a similar grim way as real!Ciel with our!Ciel, at least for now) so who knows. 🙂 Real!Ciel definitely was an obsessive type of person, that much we could see from early on, so it might be something he inherited from someone in the family indeed (be it from UT if he’s the grandfather or even from his mom’s side, I mean, look at Ann -_-).
I also agree that if UT loved the people he wants to bring back, the best would be for him to let them rest in peace, without mentioning not bothering those people’s family either. That’s his problem though, he’s just… clinging because he’s selfish and desperate (and I say that as a big fan of his).
Thanks for reading!
@kajuned Sorry, I’m not sure who you meant by Anna (Ann/Red?), but yes obviously there is no guarantee at all. 🙂 (and @my-lady-no-further: it might interest you!)
All I’m saying is that the “obsessive sibling” pattern may be random or something that Yana wrote on purpose, since it seems there is one in almost every sibling pair of the family (though it’s not for the same reason/expressed the same way):
Unfortunately, we don’t know enough about Vincent & Frances’ sibling dynamic to know if Vincent was as protective of his younger sibling as his son and nephew are (it is a headcanon of mine though), but generally they seem to have managed much better so… eh. xD
Anyway, I’m definitely one to see real!Ciel’s behavior as being… possibly pathological (even from childhood, I mean), but I can understand not everyone considering the same idea and I do agree that his behavior isn’t completely similar to UT’s.
For UT, it is mainly based on probably living a complicated/tragic existence and on desperation for me (what you said)…
whereas for real!Ciel, it seems to have been latent from very early on…
…and this is why I see it as closer to the behavior Ann showed (because she didn’t simply become mad after losing her family; in the first place she could never move on from her obsession over Vincent, in my opinion).
Anyway, I guess we’ll see, but thanks for your input! 🙂
Hi Anon! And OMG, you make a great point, although I do have to say that I disagree about Vincent since personally I can’t blame him for being murdered.
In fact, he seems to have been a good dad in my opinion…
it’s just that his character remains rather mysterious and hard to read in general, but he certainly wasn’t on the same scale as the others, since he at least made sure his sons wouldn’t be left alone should something happen to him.
Frankly, one thing that always baffled me in the fandom is how some readers consider that Berserk is about Guts vs Griffith and like…
I just don’t get it?
I mean, sure, since Casca had a few years of absence, she certainly can’t have become as good as Guts did or as powerful as Femto became, when they were more evenly matched in the past, but nonetheless, Berserk always has been and will be about their trio and my proof…
is right here, because that baby is the biggest link (aside Casca and Guts surviving the Eclipse) between the three of them right now. Besides, would Miura have spent 17 volumes reaching Skellig if Casca’s character wasn’t of the utmost significance to the story?
So I’m sorry that I can’t explain it in a different way xD but for me, Casca is one of the three main characters of Berserk and as such, her role is the same as Guts’ and Griffith’s: she’s partially the reason the story exists, thus she’ll drive the story forward until its end. 🙂
That’s my opinion and I’m afraid I’ll never agree with anyone who considers that Casca is secondary or not relevant anymore, same for the Gutsca dynamic.
I hope it answers your question, have a nice day Anon! :))
The Lanky Soldier who went on to drop Pieck and Porco into a trap told Zeke to go on ahead. After chapter 102′s ending, I have been trying to think of an explanation for this that doesn’t require Zeke working with Paradis, and nothing I come up with is convincing. But I think the possibility that Zeke has turned traitor is not so unlikely as it seems now.
Really good analysis on Zeke’s suspicious suspiciousness. For me, the possibility that Zeke is working withParadis but not for Paradis is the most likely aka they both have at least some things to earn by working together for a short while but not becoming exactly allies.
the more prominent cell division is, the more mutations occur because of the polymerases reaching their limitation in their proofreading ability (be it endo or exo, 5′-3′ or 5′-3′). This is why Cancers always become worse.
An extreme differentiation of pluripotent stem cells at an extremely high rate is bound to drain all the polymerases and the checkpoints – altering the differentiation pathway of the cells. Since cells differentiate into committed cells that ultimately form organs and their tissues… then most probably, and considering the magnitude of the differentiation that took place in dragon…
those are new organs… never identified before.
most likely they have a function.. let’s see.
my boy had his haircut slightly changed again 😀
exCUSE ME BUT I’M SO HAPPY MAMA AND HER SON REUNITED AGAIN
Hi again 🙂 And don’t worry, I think it’s natural to have mixed feelings, I do too, namely about the impending Gutsca reunion. :3
I mean, we now know that the Skull Knight’s warning was about…
…Casca not wanting to come back when Guts really needed her to, so it’s possible that she will be angry and ungrateful about this at first (coping takes time).
At the same time (hence why I have mixed feelings xD)…
…the girls caught on that too, so it’s possible that they will be able to make Casca realize all that Guts and their group went through just for her sake.
Finally, as you said, while I think the pain in her heart will take a long time to be dealt with (understandably, considering what she went through, just like Guts), I think that finding a motivation to go through in life will help Casca with accepting it’s a good thing that she’s back.
This is exactly what happened to Guts: getting Casca back in his life helped him a lot with what he had become as the Black Swordsman, that’s why Flora said…
and
how he managed to get over his violent urges at the most critical times.
So the same will probably happen to Casca with…
…what seemed to be the most important for her ever since the Eclipse, especially since it’s extremely plot relevant considering that her baby is used by Femto + that…
it was always foreshadowed the original Band of the Hawk led by Casca would come back. :3
Honestly I just want Guts to get a break right now. I love my girl Casca and I don’t mind her getting all the time she needs to cope, but I hope she will at least let Guts feel happy that he didn’t do all of this for nothing.
It definitely was a selfish wish of him to get her back when she didn’t want to, but the guy went through a lot and he’s been clinging onto this single hope for a while now, so I don’t want the beast of darkness to overwhelm him again now.
He deserves to feel better about a few things, especially since he might find out really soon about what Griffith did to his kid and there’ll be plenty of time for anger again then.
As for the people who think Casca’s going to go back to Griffith… I mean, I see people saying that Femto will get redemption, that Guts and Casca were never in love and some people just coming to the realization that Femto’s “feelings” for Guts and Casca are only the demon infant’s… So
I don’t know, sometimes people simply can’t read and that’s too bad for them, because they’re clearly missing out. xD
Ahhhh, I can’t wait for next monthhhhhhhh! >_< Thanks for passing by again and have a lovely week! ^3^
