Griffith, the leader of the mercenary group “Band of the Hawk,” notices Guts. Commanding a power that’s unimaginable with his beautiful appearance and great ambitions, wins Guts in a duel and brings him into the Band of the Hawk to fulfill his own dream. As they go through numerous fierce battles together, the companions become bound by trust.

The bond between Griffith and Guts, in particular, has become something special.

The Band of the Hawk eventually rose to become the regular army of the Kingdom of Midland, but this was only the first step toward Griffith’s goal of reaching the top.

But what Guts does not yet know is the terrible fate that their endless dreams have bestowed upon them…
