Just because people thought it was sexy doesn't mean it was intended to be. It's just like saying that someone thought seeing a dead squirrel on the road in a movie is funny just because one person laughed.

And while it may have focused on Casca's body, it also focused on the pain and trauma that she was suffering, and that Guts had to watch. Miura doesn't pull any punches when it comes to sex and violence, but he does it for the emotional and psychological factors as well as highlighting just how bad the times were, not for the reader's sexual pleasure.
