Nope. Iwaaki still hasn't resumed it, which is odd, since this is much longer of a break than usual for Iwaaki. However, amazon.jp has set the release date of volume 11 on July 23, meaning that Iwaaki is most definitely done retouching the artwork for that. So if I had to bet, there'll either be a new chapter this month or the next.

It tends to work better In manga format I think. Just from the nature of the medium being more focused on key images and moments rather than real time

More or less, yeah. You either kill, or end up like that priest.

Early Canute is fun, but I don't really like him after he turns into Daenerys. Though the talking head scenes are pretty amusing in a creepy way.

Yes I absolutely meant everyone should just be killing everyone at all times.

Yeah, that's the point. He's reaching for an ideology that is extremely difficult to make it work in that era, and in doing so, he gets shit from everyone around him who grew up accepting violence as a natural aspect of life.

I can tell from this post you're part of the problem.

People insisting on faithfulness are the reason so many adaptations are shit. Studios go out of their way to adapt the works panel by panel instead of thinking of how they could take better advantage of the medium or fix some inconsistencies that the author retconned later on

21 pages in 2 days due to overworked schedule and exhibition

At least I don't think it's retarded that a traumatized child soldier would want to stop killing even if he lives in MUH VIKING ERA which happens to be the very reason he wants to stop it

That's proper Yea Forums's logic right there

You're only proving my point. Go back.

So he and you are both similarly retarded then?

Hope the anime ends when Askeladd dies, because the cool part of the story ends there.

Wish they showed first battle and manlet lord.
Same with berserk - action and badass MC introduction first, tragic backstory - later.
Also it ruins Askeladd for animeonly, in manga he is that smug guy that gets all the treasures and leaves with smile and crown on his head, so first impressions of him is great, and only later you learn that he killed Thors. Here he will be remembered as an assassin and thug, until his backstory shown.

He's supposed to be retarded, as Thorkell pointed out just a couple chapters ago. But I guess you are too retarded to understand that

Our subjective opinions are worthless. You cannot ignore the fact its iconic. The manga would literally be axed right now if it wasn't for the anime. Had the adaptation been shit if wouldn't have been so well known.

based and redpilled. askeladd's death was the downfall.

The fights in the manga have actual weight and sense of motion despite being stills.
The anime is just pathetic.

It will never become "good again" for you.
From the very beginning what you considered good was just a shortstop of Thorfinns character development.
If you seriously believe that Vinland Saga and Thorfinn will return to violence focus then you dont understand the author, as unsubtle as he is.

that does not make sense. most of the people who watched the first season are animeonlies and are also retarded. snk was also popular as fuck, so it wouldn't have gotten axed if it didn't get an anime. watch s3p1 and say to me with a straight face that the anime is better. you would be a brainlet.

Go shag some sheep, Llywelyn.

SnK was one of the hottest new shonen manga when it came out even before the anime was made.

Absolute trash.

Wasn't the reason S3P1 got butchered exactly because Isayama admitted that almost nobody liked it in the manga?

I haven't been keeping up with the news, why did they release 3 episodes at once?

To give us blueballs waiting for the next one.

>shortstop
For 70 chapters and then a jarring whiplash. It's just stupid.

I don't remember anyone asking you a goddamn thing

But they can achieve the same thing by releasing it on a weekly basis.

Maybe as a tactic to get people to signup for amazon prime trials.

Edgefinn adventures last for like a bit over 30 chapters in total

3 weeks wait all at once is pretty bad, especially when they didn't even finish the flashback during these three eps.

Everything before Farmland is literally called "The Prologue" and Farmland starts around chapter 55 and not 70 IIRC.

>The Prologue
I'm pretty sure it's only after the fact. It was a shounen in the beginning too, the author is a hack.

What exactly do you define as "after the fact".
The last chapter of the first part is called "The End of The Prologue".
This is getting stupid.

Yeah, but it went Berserk level retarded when the chick with the crossbow and the tomboy showed up.

Are there any books about Norwegian fairy tales?

it was good i liked it, im so fucking tired of pseudo-videogame-fantasy that felt refreshing

So episode 4 will end the flashback. Then episode 5 is anime-only stuff about Thorfinn's first kills and maybe the Ylva bonus chapter? Then 6 could be the Frankish fort and 7 could be Thorfinn vs. Askeladd duel plus the first English war chapter? Hard to predict desu senpai

Yeah, I'm liking it so far but I do wish the fights were a bit less Dynasty Warriors-esque

its an anime... yeah some of the characters were real people and the big events are largely historically accurate but there is plenty of creative licence used throughout.
not sure why you were expecting anything different

yeah I remember seeing it in dororo and kokkoku as MAPPA
I wonder if they're all part of the same parent company

NGL, Leif's travels filler gaiden episodes would've been better

...

user why are you so negative?

There's so little left of the flashback that I'm assuming the first half will be the end of the flashback and the second half the anime original stuff.

Asbjornsen and Moe made a collection of Norwegian fairy tales like the Brothers Grimm did for German Fairy tales

best part was where the chad anglos btfo of the faggoty Danes having homo times in the river

its a cartoon

>guy gets shot with arrow
>barely notices it
>it doesn't leave even the slightest wound
What gives?

i hope that all anime onlies die of cancer desu

Could be, yes. I might be remembering wrong how long they chat before Thors kicks the bucket

You don't notice wounds in battle.

He was wearing gambeson and chain mail I think

he's the Troll, they heal super fast

Thors is level 100 Jesus.

he was wearing armour

His muscles were flexed to hard for mere iron to pierce them

Thanks for the hint

Canute basically turns into a satanist when he says fuck you to god

fuck no, it's finally gotten readable instead of edgy shounenshit

Did he plant the seeds for Anglicanism?

canute loves god. idk what you mean proved proof or fuck off.

wasn't in manga said that the name meant something like "born from ash" because he was spending all the time with the smith or something?

What? He thinks God is evil because muh love

Askeladd literally means "Ash Child", and yeah, he cleaned the smithy

Askeladd is a nickname meaning Ash Lad, which I think means someone who helps the smith by blowing embers or something. It's usually a job for useless old people, so I think the manga character and the folk hero having that as their name is supposed to say something of their perceived potential or their innocuousness.

god is lover nigger.

>tfw your real name is torfinn

Brailet here
Why did Leif believed in Virgin Mary?

Tell that to Canute

Read the manga or fuck off you fucking retard.

Yeah, that's what he thinks until he realizes how fucked up the world is and decides that he will build his own paradise because God won't give it to them

Many Norsemen were Christian at this point. It varies from country to country but I think in the next 50 years or so Scandinavia and Iceland will be Christian except for some parts of Sweden.

This is after the fact. "it was just the prologue, sike!"

>hurr Halfdan's son ends up being some good guy greg bullshit

But yeah, that's not so bad. You know what's really retarded?
Thorkell just let Thorfinn go... without a fight.
That was fucking inexcusable.

I'm half expecting Askeladd to come back as some cool wine uncle.

Thanks user

yall really think canute is a atheist

>baka

What? He's not an atheist. He believes in god but he considers him evil

Umm I hope I am wrong but you realize that atheism means not believing in god and not hating god, right?
A person who hates god is clearly not an atheist as you have to believe in the existence of god to hate him.

Just becuase you want to become god does not mean that you are not a christian retards.

Okay, I checked. The flashback still has 5 chapters left. Even though they are pretty action-packed it's hard for me to see them going through them in half a episode.

What the fuck are you talking about? He doesn't want to become a god and nobody has said that he's not a christian. Do you speak English?

Impressive reading comprehension.

There is a lake behind the castle, they are bringing the boats overland from a nearby river so they can sail towards the unprotected pier.

Basedkelchadd's laugh during that scene in the PV is so infectious.

True, Anglos should had been drowned in their sleep, and their babes tossed to the sea when they were born, and the world would be a better place now.

Your language abuses the letters L and Y so thoroughly that mispronouncing welsh words is an act of mercy.

yes it means (the)"ash boy" or "ash lad. In the fairytales he is called that because he spends all day playing/digging in the ashes of the fire/oven/thing

Ohhhh, so they pronounce it like Aschelad because of this?
The more you know huh.

Fuck now I wish AD Astra and Historie got an anime.

I stopped reading Vinland a long time ago. In that farm segment, did it went more forward?

Well, they pronounce it like that because that's how the norse pronounciation works for a word like that, not because of the english word.

Farmland saga has ended. We are now in the merchant saga

It's not really a norse name so I don't see how you would know the correct norse pronunciation of it

I thought they pronounced it incorrectly tho?
A bunch of people claimed so.

We know they carried them from river to river.

Also I haven't watch the show yet so I don't know if it's something dumber than a whole crew lugging it between rivers.

.... I wonder if archeologists will ever find the remains of one deep in a forest, abandoned because something happened to the crew.

It probably wouldn't be preserved unless it sank into a swamp or something

Hey guys how's the manga going? Any sign of something like an end?

Didn't it take ten volumes for him to say "End prologue"? Like wtf how long is this thing going to be?

That's not how... wood works. The only ships they've found are from graves I'm guessing

It predates them an awful long time.

Go watch Jason and the Argonauts, the fifties one.

End is nowhere near. Probably over a hundred chapters left and that's still assuming he doesn't come up with more arcs that we can't predict

Cool I will pick it up again.

You know, there is tons of euro comics that do good historical shit but are so buried and have no advertisement, and its been so dead lately. Kinda bothers me Japs do more historical drama comics these days than we. Its sad.

Not close to the end, it's clear they want to make it for a long time. I hope the next arc is better than the Baltic one, it's the only arc I haven't liked.

Fuck me that was way better than i was expecting. God bless WIT.

They are currently doing a long, long, long trading arc.
After that we will probably have the actual Vinland arc left.

sauce?

I know. I'm just spitballing that something like that would be neat. A spooky abandoned camp with the clear remains of a hull or something.

No idea it was ever translated.

Attached: abatalhaaljubarrota-kfr.jpg (500x689, 135K)

They've gotten preserved in swamps and bogs. Or the exact kind of water, like the Dead Sea. It's not very common, but yeah, they've found a few.

Thanks guys.

So minimum 1.5 arcs left, but really who knows?

I loved Planetes, one of my favorite manga and anime of all time, so I wanted a huge chunk of Vinland piled up before I started. I guess with the anime around I might as well start.

That's all I need, coincidentally, I'm actually translating these kind of comics albeit, at a really slow pace, mind you.

God's work user. Save all these euro comics. They deserve to be reborn one day.

Please post on Yea Forums whenever you get things done. Also thanks. Also if you've already posted things, lol whoops I'm out of the loop.

Eurocomics to me tend to look fantastic, have neat details, but are too short for any real deep dive character creation. They're sort of more like a fantastic themed artbook than a story.

Can't wait for Thorfinn to practice fishing in Russian rivers for 50 chapters while anons are pulling their hair out

Attached: vin37.png (610x513, 199K)

They are usually short because they are very dense.

This one I posted is 92 pages but the dude went to crazy detail to make the portuguese battle as authentic and historically correct as possible.

I do agree I wish they were longer.

Vinland Saga pacifism is anything but stupid and simple

I can't wait for people to complain or meme about swedish vikings actually doing something.

ITS LITERALLY BEEN SAID FROM THE START

Much better than I thought it'd be CG wise, I'm bummed out knowing what happens though, fuck Askeladd.

I'll be sure to make fun of how fucking boring and irrelevant Swedish vikings were when we get to it

Exactly. Rich in detail in art, short on emotional nuance in story. It's a frustrating mix. I can't exactly blame an artist for not doing 300 pages of work like that on a single character or subject, but it leaves the work a bit frustrating for me.

There's like an arc between Japanese comics, American comics, and European comics between how dense they are and how much they dive into all aspects of their story.

I really think American comics would be the best if not for the utter lack of good writers and artists these days.

Who knows, maybe we'll get to see them put some finns in the bins.

The show died with Ragnar, Aetlestan and Eckebert

You know what bothers me? There are tons of historical accurate works from the early to the late medieval period, that shows how battles actually worked. But because Hollywood has no sense of historical accuracy and the avegare american viewer couldn't care less about things like history of geography, we are inundated by awful tactics and free for all scrimmages in everything. At least that Scipio Africanus series they are making in Spain hired the original author and some other history professors, so there is still hope it wont suck.

>Everybody is a hack who tries to do something interesting
The only reason Vinland stays so popular is because it tries to do actual character development. Current Sigurd story is the best example of that.

I just wish i could have sex at this point desu.

go fuck a whore then

I'm Finnish so I sometimes fantasize that they stop by here even though it won't happen

Do you have to get close to Finland to pass down into Rus? Then they might stop there, just to make a point about vikings raiding everywhere. They did raid the finns, but not as much as everywhere else.

Trading slavs was probably a more lucrative business anyway.

>Japanese works better for pronouncing Icelandic words than English

I have a feeling we'll see some Finnish characters.

Swedes were probably the most pagan out of the Norse countries back then.

Why did the quality of the manga drop so hard after chapter 100? The anime should just end with Thorfinn coming home with an end card telling you to go read the actual story of Thorfinn Karlsefni.

Yes writers are complete shit, and everything is in a swamp of cape stuff.
But there are good artists.

I would settle for short and sweet instead of epic and meandering like manga.
Wolfsmund felt more like Euro comics in structure but had all the emotion of a manga.

The story started in 1002. In a little over 100 years I think the Crusader king of Norway goes to Sweden to btfo some more heathens, and those are the last openly pagan people in Scandinavia.

I wonder if we're gonna see any byzantine stuff in the next arc.

It would be dope if this went to Constantinople.

This period in History is one of the most under represented and most fascinating periods in history. Europe learning from the Byzantines, complete chaos.

Its like actual real life Lotr and Constantinople has been for centuries like Gondor being besieged first by Persia then by Islam.

True but some movies are okayish. If only for eye candy like Gladiator.

I like how the battles were portrayed in that farrel Alexander movie, but the rest was really bad.

Old Hollywood since they had no money for big scales battles or shit like El Cid all the time actually did some interesting forgotten and entertaining movies compared to today.
Focus on entertaining not historical. Stuff like The War Lord (1965).

These days its only garbage. Pictures are just getting worse and cant compete.
Stuff like Total war games even with their inaccuracies created a generation of young peopel interested in historical warfare more than any movie ever made I bet.

It's likely that there will be Eastern Europe arc before that. Leif said that the trip is dangerous and he doesn't know the way so would be weird to skip it

After the plague and the 100 year war its fast forward as fuck to powerful maritime empires, 30 years war and siege of vienna.
Its chaotic as fuck and had more focus from literature, musketeers later and all that, compared to the byzantine era.

It has a mystical aspect as well that was preparing to burst open in the renaissance.

Hell if you don't abbreviate farm and baltic there's enough for 5 seasons. I still think baltic was stretched to coincide its end with the anime.

Farm and baltic are both roughly as long as the prologue. Less action though I guess

Is yelling "UMI DA!" a Japanese custom?

I counted it as one, as well as the *clap clap* anime trope that Thors does to end storytime.

Those are more anime tropes than Japanese customs. Besides, clapping is a pretty universal way to get people's attention.

You're right, but regardless it took me out of the mood each time it happened.

whats their endgame

Imagine a world without anglo-saxons.

Prologue is ~300 pages, or 1.5 volumes. Baltic is currently at 36 chapters, 5 volumes and ~900 pages. Add 3.5 volumes to that if you count Fettered Tern and Hunter/Hunted arcs as being part of baltic. Farm was 6 volumes.

But if pacing goes fast how will I enjoy the backgrounds and feel the weight of the words that vikings are saying.

I'm not even a christfag but I'm glad this isn't another viking show against the "evil christians" (I'm assuming at least) which for some reason is where so many of them go. There is a lot more to viking/norse history than that crap. It's looking pretty promising so far.

clapping for attention and a child being excited to see ocean all around him for the first time are "japanese customs"? are you retarded?

What? Prologue is 54 chapters and farmland is a bit shorter than that

Dos any of the events portrayed in this story overlap with the ones in History channel's Vikings TV series?

damn this is so slow

He dies like a champ archiving everything he wanted save for probably one thing

No, Vikings is a fictional show that takes some events randomly from different stories and awkwardly fits it into the story of Ragnar. The Harald mentioned in episode 1 though is the same Harald that conquers Norway in Vikings.

Do you just consider everything before Farm the prologue? A prologue is a separate, preliminary section meant for establishing background. I had assumed you were talking about the flashback.

Funny those "evil christians" were on the wrong side of a Viking sword for centuries as Charlemagne power waned.
The propaganda is so obvious now.

Honestly user, a good historial book from the era also never focuses on that. But mostly on the relation between pagan and Christian europe.

Viking era spans centuries user, why should it? Also that show is trash.
I am on the mood for some Mountain Blade Viking Conquest to be fair.

he kills himself because he is a emo faggot

Yes? Chapter 54 is literally called the End of the Prologue. People generally divide VS into the prologue, farmland saga and baltic sea war/merchant saga

I hope they will animate Farmland Saga one day

>not that priest that taught Canute what true love is

I have gotten tired of anime set in medieval Europe because I've never seen one that felt realistic. Language aside, the characters are always Japanese in their mannerisms, etiquette, acting, etc. The setting in Vinland Saga so far is like a medieval Japanese village with Japanese villagers that's been re-skinned to look like Vikings.

Are you underage?

How is the reception so far among the Scandinavians? Do they approve of this show?

Japanese also works better for pronouncing German words than English.

I understand Thorfinn's pacifist idea, but reflecting on it, he really is putting that idea at too high of a pedestal. Not wanting to kill is completely understandable, but if you're in a true battle, hundreds of swords and axes swinging, and (at least where I left off) a man trying to kill you, specifically, I don't think that a man could be faulted for saving his own life at the cost of the other's. And if Thorfinn is serious about settling his new land, then he has to be prepared to at the very least defend it.
Maybe I need to reread the series to understand better, but I doubt even Thorfinn himself believes that you can talk everyone down. Some, probably a lot of people, but not everyone.

I think the reason is that they're trying to make every character have a philosofical trance of some shit, even the ones like Thorkell who are the antithesis of it.
He straight up crushed one of his subordinate's head for interrupting his second duel with Thorfinn, and now you're telling me he's gonna let him go just because some chick likes him? Like "oh I see, that's the true essence of a warrior" crap. That's not Thorkell at all.

I def do
