Post Eclipse, How Guts Escapes. (For anime fans)

This section is for fans of the anime who've never read the manga. Since the last dvd just came out in english I expect there to be a lot of, "What the hell"s going around. Well first of all let me tell you a little about the Skull Knight. After Guts leaves the Band of the Hawk he is camping in the woods when the Skull Knight appears (I'll put a picture up soon.) Anyways, the Skull Knight tells Guts that the eclipse is going to take place one year from now and that Guts will die there. Guts remembers hearing the exact same thing from Nosferatu Zodd. The Skull Knight then leaves. So now back to how Guts escapes the eclipse. In the anime it appears that Rickert is dead when he runs into the apostles at the Hawks camp. Actually the Skull Knight comes and saves him right after that and he goes to the eclipses site. The eclipse appears as a big tornado and Zodd is their waiting for him. Zodd and Skully have been rivals for a long time and they battle outside the eclipse. All of this is not in the anime. So Guts loses his arm and eye and then there's a fade-out, and that ends the anime. But in the manga right after that the Skull Knight bursts through the eclipse after cutting off Zodds arms. He attacks Void, but it's useless, so he rescues Guts and Caska and takes off. He tells Zodd they'll postpone their fight till a later date and Zodd agrees since they both predicted Guts would die and he survived. Rickert is at Godos and Skull Knight drops them off there. Rickert and Erica tend to Guts wounds and Caskas. When Guts wakes up he goes to see Caska but Rickert and Erica tell Guts to stay inside because, "He's out there." Guts goes anyways and discovers Caska is now insane and he runs off into the woods in confusion and frustration. He the comes across the Skull Knight who has been waiting for him. A bunch of evil spirits then attack Guts. Skully gives him his sword and Guts kills them all. Skull Knight says that since Guts is branded he lives in between the spirit world and the real world and that he's like a torch in the darkness to the dead. He says that now Guts life will be even more of a struggle to survive. He then tells Guts that he'll see him again someday and he rides off. Guts returns back to Godo's work he finds that Godo and Rickert have built him a fake arm with a cannon in it and a brand new sword. A demon then shows up who looks like a deformed midget. Guts tries to kill him but it's no use. His sword breaks. Then he sees a sword standing up and picks it up and kills the demon. The sword just happens to be the dragon slayer a sword that will become Guts trademark for its size and strength. Then Guts tells Rickert to stay and watch Caska while he attacks the enemies. Guts then goes out on his quest for revenge against Griffith leaving a trail of dead God Hand apostles in his wake. I must also note that Caska has a child and it is a deformed demon. It disappears in the day but it always comes to haunt Guts.
