PERSONALITY

Having been born into a bloody situation and forced into a life of violence, Guts barely had time to live like a normal child. Although he experienced moments of happiness and joy, his true passion was warped into a desire for fighting, mainly to gain Gambino's acceptance and later to enhance your own combat skills. After successfully killing the first person in what would become a list of thousands, Guts trained himself to become stronger and know how to hold his sword, eventually creating a strong and very personal relationship with the blade he wields.

During his time with the Band of the Hawk, Guts had also told Casca that he was only happy when wielding his sword.
