Guts was found by a mercenary group beneath the hanged corpse of his mother.
As a newborn, Guts had a traumatic start to life. He was discovered by a group of mercenaries led by Gambino, lying in a puddle of blood beneath his mother’s corpse, who had been hanged from a tree. This grim scene is where Guts’ life began, and it set the tone for the many hardships he would face. The mercenary group took him in, and he was raised in the harsh environment of a mercenary camp. His childhood was filled with violence and neglect, which shaped him into the hardened warrior he would become. Guts’ early life was marked by constant battle and struggle, which is a recurring theme throughout his life and the series “Berserk.”
