Author Kentaro Miura included many humanistic themes in his famous seinen manga series Berserk. For all its bloody action sequences and graphic scenes of torture and dismemberment, Berserk is also a strong character study for its main cast, most of all Guts the mercenary antihero and his friend turned ultimate rival, Griffith. Most of Berserk’s story is only possible because Griffith is a man with a dream — a dream that came at a steep price.Griffith stated his dream in blunt and simple terms during Berserk’s Golden Age story arc, but there’s more to Griffith’s ultimate dream than his simple words. Griffith’s dream touches on vital themes of the story, making him surprisingly similar to the characters around him, no matter their feuds and grudges. Griffith’s dream inspired Guts when they were still friends, and later in the story, Griffith’s dream took Berserk in an entirely new direction.Griffith knew the what and the why of his dream, so as he grew up, he also figured out the how, as fans saw during the Golden Age story arc. Starting in his teens, Griffith commanded his own mercenary band, one he dubbed the Band of the Hawk, to raise money in a war-torn world, such as in the Midland Kingdom. All mercenaries fight for money, of course, but Griffith wasn’t just collecting coins to keep his army funded — he wanted to build a large enough army to make his new kingdom a reality, with himself as the liege lord.
