“Why do you think Harold would keep his shades down?”
“So nobody can see in, I guess,” Leo said. “So he can do secret things. It’s like the dead people, isn’t it?” […]
“Secret things,” Larry mused aloud, not really trying to draw the boy out anymore.
“Maybe he’s praying to the dark man,” Leo said casually, and Larry jerked as if brushed by a live wire. Leo didn’t notice. He was double-bouncing his Ping- Pong ball, first off the sidewalk and then catching it on the rebound from the brick wall they were passing… whock-whap!
“Do you really think so?” Larry asked, making an effort to sound casual.
“I don’t know. But he’s not like us. He smiles a lot. But I think there might be worms inside him, making him smile. Big white worms eating up his brain. Like maggots.”

I actually can’t tolerate anyone who sympathizes with Griffith after he raped Casca. It’s not morally right to sympathize or feel sorry for a rapist. Its down right sickening.

Using someone else’s appreciation for a fictional character as a means of practicing intolerance towards another human being certainly is the morally superior thing to do haha

That being said, why is it so hard to grasp that some people like Griffith because he’s actually a well-constructed character fit for a morally questionable story that Berserk is in the first place? Griffith’s appeal lies in the fact that the things he does are, indeed, downright despicable but there’s an outlined reason for his actions that makes the viewer, to a certain extent, understand why he does the things he does without necessarily supporting him; the Golden Age basically shows his descent from a relatively decent person to a terrifying man, and a part of the fact why people sympathize with him is that, unlike many tragic villains, he did it all to himself by making a series of unfortunate (not to say idiotic) decisions. For me, Griffith is an awfully human character and that is what makes his part of the story so engaging to follow.

Thylacine as pet: remarkably tractable, docile, and affectionate - and, in some respects, superior to the dog. One of these reasons is that the thylacine acquiesces to others without protest - they do not engage in power struggles.

I don’t wanna get all bigfoot on you, but I think if you did some research you would agree that there is a small relic population alive today - but the species is still extinct.

Awwww bbs ;U; They sounded like such sweet little animals.

i think we’re getting close to cloning them back into existence

IIRC, the arabian oryx population was re-established from seven or so individuals. So if there is indeed a relic population, and the genetic diversity is decent, thylacines could probably be re-populated too! (cloning would also help, I think!)
