Editing Berserk (section)

===Guts===

Our favorite protagonist. Fights with a FUCKHUGE sword, eat your heart out Cloud (Sephiroth's is still <s>Bigger</s> Longer?). He is as badass as [[Eliphas]] and as manly as [[Fist of the North Star|Kenshiro]]. Has an impossibly depressing past that began before his birth;
* Guts' past: Guts was born [[Grimdark|from the corpse of his lynched mother under a hanging tree, put there by bandits who chose to string up the pregnant woman after destroying her hometown.  Guts himself only survived the fall because heavy rain had made the ground soft.  He was soon found by a mercenary band led by Gambino and presumed dead, but was saved and raised by Gambino's girlfriend Shisu, only for Shisu to die of a plague before Guts' eyes when he was three.  From there Gambino made him fight as a child soldier and abused him, with Guts making his first kill when he was nine... and getting raped by one of Gambino's men that same night.  Gambino abused Guts even more as time went on, culminating in Gambino admitting that he'd always hated Guts, blamed Guts for everything bad in his life and revealed he'd actually pimped out Guts to the rapist.  This made Guts snap and kill his asshole of an adopted father... only to be chased out of the group by Gambino's vengeful men.  Guts fell into a ravine while fleeing from them, only to get "rescued" by slavers and promptly enslaved]].  All before Guts reached adulthood.

Wow... that's dark, even for us.  Moving on, when Guts first encounters Griffith, he loses to him in a sword battle ((and his fuckhuge sword manages to lose to a ''rapier''. What?) Happens Because Griffith is the first enemy to use actual tactics beyond "throw yourself against the FUCKHUGE sword-wielding sociopath and hope you win" also, it was a SABER) and then goes on to fight with Griffith's band of mercenaries. Things happen, he gets the hots for Casca, then all his life went to shit with the Eclipse, [[Grimdark|where his waifu got raped by his former best friend while he was forced to watch]] and lost his left forearm and right eye. Then he gets new companions and things become a bit less grimdark.
