Did Griffith ever actually like Casca? What exactly were Casca's feelings towards Griffith? Where does Guts fit into this?

Anonymous 36548

Griffith was gay for Guts but was willing to settle for Casca if his goal of becoming a king didn't come true

Guts idolized Griffith but wasn't gay for him

Casca liked both Griffith and Guts during the Golden Age arc

Casca is just like me. My taste in men also keeps shifting from twinky to very masculine

Griffith thought of Casca the way you might think of a very loyal lap dog, she was useful to him as a general and he enjoyed the power he exerted over her, moreso than the rest of the Band of the Hawk becauseshe was clearly so enamored by him. It's part of why he was so mindbroken that he started having cuck fantasies just before the eclipse, the idea that Casca would abandon him for Guts meant that he had truly lost everything he valued about the life he had made, and was utterly powerless. I don't think he ever really loved her in the way he was obviously gay for Guts, and the Eclipse rape only happened as a way to get back at Guts for his perceived betrayal

Before Griffith's fall, his feelings towards Casca were completely pure.
He valued her as an excellent and faithful soldier, and although he understood she was completely in love with him, he cared for her in a very "professional" way - while still considering her his inferior, and being guilt ridden by the fact she will probably one day die for him, just like everyone else.

Casca was obviously in love with Griffith, but it was a love that transcended romance and bordered into worship. There is no doubt Casca would have done basically anything Griffith ordered with little regard for herself. The romance part kind of fizzles out as she gets closer to Guts, but the worshipping element never really dies out until the Eclipse.

Guts is the only person who Griffith considers a true friend, his equal, but that only happens when he leaves him to chase hiw own dream- that breaks Griffith because
1. he cared about Guts, genuinely
2. he understands the paradox of only being able to be friends with people who, by HIS definition of "true friend", will typically never be at his side
3. his more controlling instincts rebel at the idea of losing his best warrior
4. Guts was a foundational element to the success of the Hawks and he hasn't achieved his dream yet

casca was a tool for his goals and guts was the only person he viewed as a personal friend.
Casca idolised Griffith for saving her and having clear ambition and MAYBE romantically until she realised it was never on the cards.
Guts didn't realise griffith depended solely on him for actual companionship, he wanted to be like him and pursue his own goal of being a master swordsman but accidently fell in love with casca along the way.

Griffith's purpose is to become like Pharaoh, worshipped like a god with the goal of entering Heaven.

Everything else is secondary to his goal. So imo while he loves Guts more than Caska ( and probably enjoys getting groped by older men ) even that is secondary compared to his goal of becoming a god.

He wants Guts to stay not because of the friendship, but because his vision dictated that Guts had to stay ( basically he needed a reliable officer to accumulate victories on the battlefield ). He then betrays the Band of the Hawk because of the dream shown to him, being taken care of like a kid by Caska and Guts. In other words he trusts his vision too much.

So no, he doesn't love Caska. He's really good at sex however and Guts probably could learn from him.
