I’ve heard someone try to argue that he got captured on purpose to endure the year of torture so on and so forth. My brain melted a little bit. I think it’s fair to argue that at the moment he climbed up to Charlotte’s window that he perhaps meant to die; but there is zero evidence that Griffith had a fucking clue that the Behelit was anything more than a good luck charm with some mild magic, if he even believed in that sort of thing.

lmao incredible. i can’t even deal with this lol, the idea that he let himself be tortured for a year on purpose just so he’d feel enough despair to trigger the behelit or w/e is so nonsenical and contradictory to everything we see that i’m in awe

anyway ia with you, griffith semi-purposefully/subconsciously self immolated when he slept with charlotte but that’s not even in the same ballpark as calculatingly destroying himself on the off-chance it would work out and end with him turning into a god lol
