>>7732339basically, griffith, who already went gay for pay, went actual gay for guts. griffith grew up in the slums and dreamt of living in a big castle. when guts entered his life, his vision of the castle was replaced with guts. im not exaggerating here. he unwittingly began to care more about guts than his dream and treated him way better than anyone else and constantly risked his life to help him. this is important because he is the leader and he knows how he must distance himself somewhat from his troops.
anyway, guts happened to overhear some bullshit griffith was feeding the princess about how he doesnt respect or call friend anyone who is unequal to himself. so guts, deciding he valued griffiths friendship, left the group to make a name for himself and become a man equal to griffith. griffith got word of guts leaving and couldnt process his shining beacon leaving him and went crazy. guts beat him and left. in a fit of heartbreak and depression griffith sought for relief by fucking the princess. the whole time he was thinking of guts and then he cried himself to sleep. again, not exaggerating. then griffith was arrested for treason (fucking the kings daughterfu) and tortured for a year. then guts came back, saw his old group were fugitives, and mounted a rescue operation. in his broken fucked body and filled with rage at the person who caused all this he briefly tried to attack guts but ultimately hugged him instead. then he realized he was obsessed with guts and had abandoned his dream, and demons required a sacrifice to grant his wish, so griffith sacrificed guts and everyone else died and now guts hunts for griffith.
