Release Date
Berserk Chapter 372 is set to be released on April 28th, 2023. It will be an extremely important chapter for Guts and his party. In the last chapter,Guts was once again left emotionally distraughtas Griffith took away Casca. He could not believe that Griffith managed to get the better of him, especially since he had been training for a long time to defeat his former best friend. Guts was overcome by emotions, and due to his inability to express them, he locked himself inside a room on the ship. Guts was haunted by the feeling of powerlessness, and he was still struggling to believe that he had failed to protect Casca.
Outside the room, the passengers on the ship were hoping for a miracle that would prevent their vessel from capsizing. One might think that Guts would be somewhat affected by the situation outside, but his mind was completely overwhelmed by the events that took place on Skellig. Schierke decided to use astral projection to get inside Guts' mind and try to get him out of his miserable state.Schierke touched the Dragon Slayer, and all the memories of Guts' previous battles came flooding to her head.
What Will Happen Next?
BerserkChapter 372 is probably going to focus on Guts and Schierke. The mage will attempt to helpGuts get back on his feet once again, as without his help, they cannot hope to overcome their current predicament. However, it will take a lot of effort to get Guts going. Schierke’s best option is to use magic and pull Guts out of his depressed state. Or she could be the voice that guides Guts back toward the light. Once Guts comes to his senses, there is no doubt that he will want to fight for Casca. But his first task will be to help the people on the ship get away safely. The crew’s chances of survival drastically depend on Guts being fully functional.
The chapter might also cover Griffith’s interactions with Sonia, and she might ask him about what he intends to do with Casca. It will also give some screen time to Casca and reveal her reaction to being kidnapped by Griffith. When Griffith took her away yet again, she was unconscious, so she does not have any clue where she is. Once she wakes up, it is very likely that she will freak out after finding that she is far away from her friends.Both Casca and Gutshave been through a lot together, but there is only so much a human mind can take before breaking. It has already happened to Casca once, and Griffith was responsible for it. She has barely recovered from her previous trauma, and if she sees Griffith again, it might all come crawling back and cause more psychological damage to her.
