The trailer for the next episode hints that she will not only survive the night but will also be sticking around come what may. However, the trailer does not show much of how Guts and his crew will be able to subdue the horde of specters gaining on them. There is a mention of a ritual, although it's not clear if it is meant for the horde, and whether or not it will actually work on them.
Titled "Forest of Demonic Beasts," the episode also hints that the nocturnal specters may be the least of their concerns. A glimpse of the so-called mansion of the spirit tree is also shown, but no preview of what comes next for Mule after joining the Band of the Hawk.
"Berserk (2016)" season 2 episode 4 is the 16th overall episode of the series and will air on Friday, April 21 at 10 p.m. JST on WOWOW.
