Casca had her place at Griffith side, nursing her crush on Griffith, then Guts showed up and took that place with much greater success than Casca had. Then Guts overheard the dream speech, decided to vacate his place and hand it back to Casca, which he does by encouraging Casca and Griffith to get together romantically.
And idk this is just a good parallel to illustrate some of that.
Oh absolutely.
among the other parallels I sometimes visually compare how Guts and Casca keep exchanging positions as the series goes on.
For example in the panel when Griffith gets shot on the hunting trip, Casca immediately rushes to cradle Griffith (helpless expression) and Guts draws his sword and stands facing outward(looking protective) in front of them, looking for the source of the threat.
Later after griffith’s rescue from the tower when Wyald grabs and drops him, Guts is the one who rushes to cradle him (helpless expression) and Casca draws her sword and stands over them (looking protective).
And I love this.
The second scene is also one of my favorite moments of all three of them in general. Because Casca is in full lioness gaurding her Cubs mode. And Guts literally just let go of his sword in a threatening situation for the first time ever and it’s all just very significant to me.
