This anime is........ AWESOME ^-^ its basically about this guy (Gutts) that has a scar on him and supposivly demons own his body soul emotions..etc, but anyway he has a big ass sword!! This can only mean one thing.. hes bad ass ^-^ Anyway he fights whoever gets in his way until one day a group of bandits try and steal his lute.. but he is stronger then they are and easily defeats them. Then the main guy of the bandits(Griffith) comes down to save them basically and he easily defeats him.. so anyway he nurses him back to health and then he challenges the guy to a match and if he loses then he has to do whatever he wants him to.. so he loses and he then joins their little bandit group and do random jobs for the king and are always successful.. which gets them very prestigious I should say.. anyway it goes on from there.. basically just the group fighting different groups of people.. sometimes demons..etc very good fighting anime ^-^
