The Eclipse is one of the darkest moments in both Berserk and anime history. Mangaka Kentaro Miura killed almost all the manga’s named characters after endearing them to fans. Worse, everyone died horribly when they were eaten alive by Apostles. Griffith sacrificed his loyal soldiers and the two people he loved most, namely Guts and Casca, to the God Hand for power. Guts and Casca barely survived, but they were forever changed. Casca regressed to an infantile state, and Guts became a bloodthirsty monster.Because of how pivotal the Eclipse was to Berserk’s story and Guts’ development, some fans wondered how different they would be if the sacrifice followed another path. One of the biggest changes that could be made to this nightmarish event was giving Guts a fighting chance. When Griffith’s Behelit summoned the God Hand, Guts was a strong but otherwise ordinary human. Despite his best efforts, Guts was powerless against these monsters. He was only able to fight and kill them when he became the Black Swordsman after the Eclipse. The Black Swordsman would’ve turned the Eclipse’s tide but, contrary to what fans think, a fully-armed Guts still wouldn’t have done much against the Laws of Causality.At his peak, Guts earned the name “Hundred-Man Slayer” by killing 100 Tudor soldiers all by himself. That said, Guts during this time was only strong against ordinary people. He was no match against one Apostle, let alone a horde of them. Cases in point: Guts was injured like never before during his duels against Nosferatu Zodd and Wyald, and he was still overpowered by the Apostles even after he slaughtered many of them during the Eclipse.
