Gaara just got rejected once in his life because of a demon inside of human. Guts has been under a lot of bad sh-t in his life, and has been physically and emotionally abused (as a child, of course). There's so much tragedy that builds his character to what he is currently in the story, it's hard to even list them all, honestly. Some are just little emotional quirks throughout the manga that are able to let you know how the characters feel.

Honestly, if the violence slows down the plot for you, then you're just imagining it. Violence is there for a realistic portrayal, it's there to show you that not only Berserk is emotionally real, but it's also physically real in the world it portrays (which is kind of an oxymoron as Berserk indeed is fantasy, yet you can feel the realistic mood of it).
As for being the most violent manga, though, I think it's
one of the most violent, but I've seen way worse stuff than Berserk.
Oh, and I love this manga. Best manga ever.
