Guts

Guts, also known as The Black Swordsman, Kuroi Kenshi, Hundred Man Slayer, Heartless Swordsman and Struggler, is the main protagonist of the Berserk series.
== Charactah Account ==
Guts, renowned as the "Black Swordsman", is a former mercenary and branded wanderer who travels the world in a constant internal struggle between pursuing his own ends and upholding his attachments to those dear to him.
At one time driven solely by his will to survive, Guts finds purpose in life upon joining the Band of the Falcon, greatly helping in the faction's storied successes during the Hundred-Year War as captain of the band's raiders. He eventually becomes dissatisfied with clinging to Griffith's dream and departs from the band in pursuit of his own. Following the horrors of the Eclipse prompted by Griffith, Guts embarks on a two-year war against the God Hand and apostles, becoming increasingly embittered on his one-track quest for retribution. He in time realizes protecting his regressed lover is more important to him, as well as something he cannot do alone, and thus puts aside his quest for revenge while fostering camaraderie with new companions.

== Trivia ==
* The Berserk Official Guidebook states that circa the Fantasia Arc, Guts is 24 years old, 204 cm, and 115 kg. (NOTE: The Berserk Official Guidebook is highly questionable in its veracity.)
* The first English voice actor of Guts isn't Marc Diraison but it's actually Michael Bell from the video game "Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage", despite the fact the first Berserk anime adaptation came out in 1997, the English dub came out in 2002 while Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage came out in Japan in 1999 then in North America in 2000.
* Guts reacted badly to touch for much of his teenage years. During this time, only Casca and Griffith's touch escaped his immediate ire.
* Guts bears no reverence or respect for a "God". On the contrary, he would like nothing more than for the entity to "leave [him] the hell alone".
* Guts still carries the Count's beherit. It has not been confirmed to be his, however; both Flora and Gedfring have suggested that he may merely be its means of arriving to its predestined owner.
* Guts has proven successful in gambling and won against several opponents ten times in a row at Chō-Han Bakuchi during his time in the Band of the Falcon.
* Though Femto claims Guts' existence is beneath the God Hand's notice, Slan is particularly interested in the swordsman, and has expressed wanting him to become a member of their rank.
