So I was thinking yesterday about the Eclipse and where the story is heading.And it got me wondering, could Miura use a time skip? Obviously not right now, but after Guts and co reach Elfhelm( in a 1000 years or so) which I can picture happening around the same time as Griffith's coronation.
I think after Guts meets the Hanafubuku king, and assuming that Elfhelm is currently the safest place in the world outside of Falconia, maybe Guts and co could stay there for a while, especially if it turns out they can heal Caska but it will take time. Also on Griffith's side it would be interesting to see him after he became king, and how his rule is seen, but without actually spending all that time fleshing it out, which could take very long. Rather we could see him become king, and then jump in time to see how it turned out.
I think it would be a good way to speed things up a bit, while giving us enough information about how things turned out. At the pace Berserk is released it would take years before reaching the point where Berserk enters its final arc.A year in the Berserk verse would be a reasonable amount of time. I think it could be interesting, but it all depends on what Miura has in store for us.Things in Elfhelm might not go so smoothly, and Guts and co could end up being forced to leave. And with Rickert possibly getting his own adventure on the side, the story might continue to be linear, except we could be getting Rickert's side of the story on top of Guts and Griffith's . I would rather he also went to Elfhelm, hopefully a certain skeleton knight could give him a tip .
So timeskip, yay or nay?
