I think the adaptation so far has been amazing! Fuck you, you can't make me dislike something that is very good and had a lot of hard work put into it by people who care.

The slow pacing unironically makes it better than the manga.
Demon Slayer fags like to hate on Vinland Saga.
Last episode has some "Quality" moments.
That ost during Thorfinn vs Askeladd
Based. Ignore the shitposting.
The OST is by Yutaka Yamada, I love it, everytime I hear the music is just too good.
My goal? Heh, to kill a certain person.
I like the manga and the anime for different reasons. I think of them separately and they're are both masterpieces.
youtube.com
This is by him, it's awesome shit.
For the most part yes.
I don't care if it's shounentards or what, can't they just fuck off and watch their shitshows without infesting the threads of actual good anime? Honestly.
even before the anime no one liked Thorfinn
Thorfinn sucks
Speak for yourself.
I like him. And so do the fans reading the manga.
I don't particularly like him but he doesn't "suck" like that user says, there's a point and reason Thorfinn is this way. You can dislike if you want, but don't say he sucks, it's like if you dislike a character for their (understandable) actions, its somehow a detriment to the show.
>And so do the fans reading the manga.
Yeah I dunno. Not digging the pacifist bs Thorfinn is trying to uphold. But 1000% better than when he was an Edgelord.
Does he belong on the same tier as La creatura de Jom?
Going full Edgefinn made that moment during the prologue even better.
Where's el Thorkell grande?
People would've dropped the manga if they didn't like him. Just saying.
you mean Thorkell (permanente del cabello)
>implying
Calm down OP, you have no enemies.
Nah, I was reading for best boy Askeladd and moe Thorkell.
>you can't make me dislike something that is very good
Whether you think it's good is your opinion. You might as well say, "You can't make me dislike something that I like."
The manga is good.
If you are anime only, you will see what Thorkell is capable of in the next episode, and future ones. Words fail to describe it.
>Words fail to describe it.
The words are loosing to a teenager, two times.
If Thorfinn is sasuke, why does he run like naruto?
Naruto run made people shitpost too much. Thorkell will bring back the hype.
My only complaint so far is that we're halfway through the season and eight episodes in, and I still see people going "It might be slow now, but trust me it'll get better soon" and they've been saying that for every single episode since the pilot.
I'm reading and watching both. Thus far I think both are good and not really comparable. The only thing I can say is that the baltic sea arc was a huge let down and makes me think this series jumped the shark.
Did anyone else imagine Thorkell to have a higher pitch voice?
Why does he run like that?
I never thought he was supposed to be likeable.
Kinda yeah. But I imagined all the voices differently, aslong as he get's his energy right it's good enough.
that's just how ninjas run
missing la hermana
I hope they don't ruin him. But I don't know if that's even possible.
Gotta save the budget for the Thorfinn vs Askeladd fights
Maybe his butt hurts?
It's true though. The real plot starts next episode.
I like both, don't see why you think there is a seperation, quality is quality
You saving budget for Thorkell.
>Two
Not even, once. SauceFin ran away the first time and got favors after favors from BasedKell the second time.
is this askeladd?
put your grasses on
How would anyone here make you dislike something?
Some anons are very weak minded.
Nutting will be wong.
Are they really changing it so that the duel in the last ep was their first in ten years? That's so fucking stupid.
>I-IT'S NOT A REVENGE PLOT YOU WILL SEE
What's wrong with a revenge plot?
Only the prologue is about revenge. Who are you quoting?
>Not even, once. SauceFin ran away the first time
After taking a couple if his fingers
>got favors after favors from BasedKell the second time.
And he lost in the end.
Thorkell was playing with him and Thorfinn has plot armor.

If he defeated Thorkell how come he isn't dead?
Because the battle was interrupted by Thorkell's men threatening to kill Thorfinn and Thorkell admitting defeat, and then by Canute interrupting the whole thing all together.
Nothing. All these retards started the show knowing the revenge plot, then they complain about it.
I don't know what to think about the manga. The idea of a peaceful viking is good and bad at the same time. The tragic hero aspect is very interesting. At the same time, Thorfinn is kind of a cuck for having such a childish ideal. I'm currently reading volume 7
I fucking hate what this site has become after the 2016 elections. All this CHAD and KEK shit in every fucking thread. Literally everything is catogorized as either CHAD aka " based and redpilled" or KEK aka "cringe and unbased". SHUT THE FUCK UP!
You are leaving out the part where Askeladd blinded him.
I'm expecting his pacifist persona will end eventually too (at the latest when he meets the natives in vinland) and he somehow finds true balance. Isn't that a buddist thing? Maybe I read too much into it.
cringe and unbased
Seethe
>buddist
It could be. Also parts of christianity. Part of the plot revolves around the viking vs christian point of view.
lmao what a cuck
Will Thorfinn marry her?
The adaptation is as good as it could possibly have expected to be, the issue is the source material is really shit, and a lot of knew unbiased eyes seeing it for the first time are rightfully unimpressed with the boring ass plot, shit protagonist and chunni ass fight scenes.
We never see her again.
Fucking dammit. She cute.
Sorry, user.
Yikes

There are some people talking about how on the Grikkland arc Thorfinn expedition will encounter Orthodox christians who are peaceful yet resort to "war" when needed to protect their faith and homeland, which will cause confusion about the "warrior path" on Thorfinn
Gudrid is cuter
Another massive flaw of this series, they're a few characters like this, whom are introduced and they're personal struggle as the result of the war is infinitely more interesting then the actual plot, yet nothing is done with them and they go back to not existing the next chapter.
OTP
probably smells bad
That one confused me. Was that just supposed to be a little window into peasent life? I kept thinking she will be relevant.
Stop it
She's not, shes shit because she was so forced into the plot as the obvious love interest, hild is better and any other victim of war waifu we saw was better.
How come we never see any braided hair? Is that not historically accurate?
Gudrid is the historical wife of Thorfinn user. Hild is for Einarcock.
Einar already has a waifu.
And who is that?
I know, I just think it's bullshit hows she's just kind of forced upon the story, I also think it's bullshit that his trying to write this to be historically accurate in anyway.
Its not trying to be "historically accurate" you ballsucking shipfag, It just wants to have the same characters that will end up in vinland with Thorfinn.
She can end up there, but he could wife literally anyone else, or she could just not exist in this story at all, it doesn't change anything about whether or not the manga is good or not.
Cope
Careful, some here are really passionate about that ship.
>Taking a couple fingers
And getting his arm nearly torn off.
>Lost in the end
After Thorkell spared the guy, let him recover and get coached, told him the story of how his father legit fucked him up and got sabotaged by Askeladd in the second part of the fight (which Thorkell knew but let go).
Thors>Chadkell>>>>>>>>S.o.y.finn.
based moekell poster
She was the reason they got caught and Thorkell started pursuing them again.
I guess you're right.
It was a combination of several things, really. She showed a peasant Christian dealing with life and guilt and religious struggles, but she also served as pure incident of bad luck for Askeladd because she happened to be away from the rest of the villagers because of that aforementioned struggling.
the only thing slower is the sales

>sales = quality
The true question is, what happened with the rape in chapther 20?
Danish cum in all holes.
From what?
>People would've dropped the manga if they didn't like him. Just saying.
Askeladd carries the series hard and part of the reason why farmland is lacking for most people is because he's not in it, instead we get a bunch of far less interesting characters to follow.
I think Vinland Faga sucks
when is the new chapter out? the raws have been out for ages
That's a pretty cool concept. Hope it'll happen.
get a load of these faggots
>Yutaka Yamada
is that the same guy who made the ost for tokyo ghoul? i really loved it
ylva's delicious eyebrows.
Wrong.
Where are the raws? My usual place is still at 163
reminder anyone can have her for the right price. Start speculating on stocks lads.
Masterpieces? Not even close, the story and themeing is way too heavy handed for such a shallow and poorly thought out message to be considered a masterpiece otherwise the series is pretty good.
That's a retarded conplaint because it's good from episode 1
From the interviews it seems that they love him.
It gets better when it stops being about thorfinn, then at the end of around chapter 55 or so, it gets bad again.
the attention to detail and accuracy is above and beyond the usual at least, though quite a lot o more recent historical mangas do put it significant effort into research, same with literature in general.
That's actually not true, it has a ton of innacuracies with it's core understanding of viking culture, it was actually the the historical aspect that degraded this series for me, would have done better in an original setting. Mainly because, for example the message of pacifism that isn't too well thought out, doesn't really mesh well when you realize the Vikings pillaged because they needed to.
I am right there with you brothers. Let´s build a peacefull thread, away from the shitposting in a far away land... let´s go to Vinland.
You can think what you want, but it's obviously good from the start.
they didn't NEED to, they could have adjusted their way of life and changed their culture, which is what happened, and I wouldn't say it's inaccurate when it comes to viking culture it is just very shallow and that's because it's character driven and the character grows up in unusual circumstances.
Vinland Saga is just Naruto with Vikings.

How do you think the ending will try and spin this?
bittersweet
She was probably practising this speech alone in the forest for years.
She told him the same exact words he used to dismiss the murdering of her father
I never noticed how succulent and full Hild's lips are. Einar's gonna be a lucky guy.
Did you forget Canute's lips?
Einar's gonna fuck both Canute and Hild? What a lucky bastard.
I don't know man, I'm watching it, but it feels souless and with little narrative meat.
Also, everything that is not a close shot is always on shitty 3D and detracts from the immersion.
>Soulless
Stopped reading after that Yea Forumsshit, fuck off.
Nope. Shounentards have to preach and shitpost.
You should have listened, Yea Forums. You should've saged Naruto. Don't call it a grave - this was your choice.
Reminder
The first fatass metchant who was going to buy him because younger Einar was cute and slightly femmine looking changed mind after checking his dick and literally said "No good, he has a way too big dick"
>soulless
>little narrative meat
This is a very round about way to say "I don't like it".
Was anyone else upset about the scene were they were running the longships across land?
In the manga they at least we're using ropes and it looked like a more realistic slow march than a balls out sprint.
Also I don't remember Askeladd being such an esentric madman. I haven't read that part of the manga in years so maybe I remember him wrong but he always seemed more of a cold calculating mercenary.
Pretty sure it will happen, there were loads of pagans who converted to christianity and they'll head twoards the Byzantine Empire on the next arc, so...
He wasn't feminine at all and that's why he didn't buy him. He did like his dick though. Einar got this close to getting raped.
Did he gave Thorfinn a brojob already?
Askeladd's always played himself as a crazy madman around his crew to give him the appearance of your average asshole viking.
Reminder that, know how WIT operates, on the post credits scene of season finale we will be introduced to Einar and old Thorfinn
I think they literally forgot the ropes because you can see them holding their hands like something is missing. Askeladd was always an attention whore.
Can't wait for Thorfinn to join the crusades.
Probably when he broke his legs and was in bed all winter.
164 raws: imgur.com
The Normandy episode was the most disappointing thing so far, and hopefully it will be the only disappointment of the season. Askeladd doesn't start acting serious until later, he's a grinning asshole in the beginning
>Halfdan smiling
now that's scary
Gattgerd is a lucky gal. Siggy so handsome :3
Siggy makes me think how weird it is that almost every man has short hair. I thought long hair was a symbol of strength for vikings.
Imagine the amount of white alternative pussy with daddy issues Siggy would get if he was born today?
Are you implying Siggy is a kebab?
>white alternative pussy with daddy issues
What is the appeal of these creatures?
He is pure nordic blood
I'm not saying those tumblrwhales with hairy armpits.
I'm talking about the real big tits goth gf's
More like a round about way of saying that it looks like crap and the story and characters have been non existent so far in almost 10 epsidoes.
I wish I liked Vikings, I've hated them since I was a kid and now that I know a little history I only hate them more. It's a shame I have to miss out on a well done adaption.
Are you welsh?
man they arent humans are ANGLO
even i feel sad when i see rape and killing of innocents people
but they did the same thing to celto-romans

Do they kill them afterwards or let them live & have their kids?
Probably sell them as slaves
They are turned into designated cumholes. Pic related.
They take 'em home and they raise their kids, who do you think those women like more weak christcucks or manly Vikings?
Are you one of those "women actually enjoy rape" retards?
Are you one of them pathetic chr*stians? Wouldn't want you for a husband that's for sure.
Quiet, filthy d*Ne sympathizer.
It's true, it's great.
pathetic christians literrally kill all pagans
and the king of denmark is christian so pagan are wage slaves of a christians king
Depends
Some are take home by the Viking lord who enslaved them because they are really just that great NUT
But that doesn't mean they are getting a better life than other slaves, and the moment they get pregnant they get kicked out in the street, only wife and concubine children are recognized, not slave bastards
But the most are just sold as slaves
Thorfinn wasn't a deep man
To piss off Askeladd.
I wanna be balls deep im Thorfinn's tight nordic boycunny.
Big words for a manlet.

Nooooooooo!
It was already good from the start, and I don't get why people say that it's slow or that nothing much happens. Arguably they could have condensed episodes 2 and 3 into a single episode but they would've rushed through Thorfinn and Thors' conflict.
Shounenfags who expect flashy fighting action scenes every single episode à -la JJBA/KnY are the worst.

Man I've rewatched episode 7 a couple times now, aside from some awkward animation here and there (Naruto run, CGI soldiers and vikings carrying the boats, boats exiting the frame) it was literally KINO. The OST is fucking great (although I do wish there could be more Scandinavian music flair) too. And to think that WIT worked on this back to back with SnK season 3 part 2, seriously one of the best studios right now.
then why the fuck do you want her out? Retard
WRONG
I like both
You are just mad that the other is more popular
Kino indeed
Episode 7 is the only one I don't like, simply because it's so inferior to the manga. It was always going to be a big hurdle for them and the battle isn't even important to the overall story.
kek, sadly this
I literally started watching SnK because of Vinland.
I seriously fail to see why this piece of shit manga even got famous in the first place. I don't see HOW it could resonante with normies and not be a niche.
Well, it's ok in between waiting for episodes. I'm almost done though.
>Episode 8
>People already forgot this show existed
sad
Cope.
The CGI background ruined that scene.
Is this your first anime?
Every single anime nowadays uses digital backgrounds (that's what it's called btw). And digital animation. Are you retarded or just woke from a coma?
Its moving in 3d space so of course it's going to be 3DCG.
Who are these "people", and why should I care?
This makes me not want to read it
It starts off terrible but gets better as it goes on. Whether you think that's worth suffering through the shitty early parts or not is up to you though, I wouldn't blame you for dropping it there.
Don't , go away.
The SnK manga gained attention when it started because of how "unique" the premise was back then (10 years ago) and 2009-2010 was the height of the whole "zombie survival story" craze.
I actually remember reading the first chapter right when it was scanlated 10 years ago, even though the drawings were utter shit the story did keep me interested.
I agree the CGI background is awkward as fuck but what do you expect from a TV anime?
The only Vinland Saga that matters
every man is a slave of something
for him is love for his country
I can't believe they forgot the cameo.
Which is the better Saga?
Why, you want Thorfinn to remain a cringey edgelord forever? The story is ultimately about pacifism so if you don't like that then it's not for you
It's been AOTS for me, I've been really enjoying the Viking theme for it, Thorfinn's development every episode is a nice journey as well. Don't have a bad word to say about it so far.
Finally an opinion where I agree with you. You still have shit taste in best girls though.
dilate
Einar asked Gudrid to marry him, but she spit on his slave face.
Her oldest son is actually quite old. She probably really did fuck him within the year
You guys think a live action adaptation would work?
Farmland would work
The Adventures of Naruto The Edgelord arc probably not
Askeladd probably would think that anime is dumb nerd shit, but I can see him reading gag comedy manga as a guilty pleasure
also not sure where they'll find the absolute unit who can dual wield dane axes like they're nothing
By who? Japanese live actions movies are ass especially when the involve foreign characters and in this case there isn't a single Japanese thing about Vinland Saga. And Burgerland would probably make half the cast black because they have a fetish for doing that for some reason.
>by people who care.
What about that guy from game of thrones?
ah hafthor bjornsson might be a good choice if we were unironically thinking of thorkells irl actor, hes even Icelandic so it would be pretty decently close even in that regard
youtu.be
You can not like the show but you can't really be saying the staff aren't passionate as fuck for it.
He doesn't have the right face though and Im not sure if he can act since we only see him under a helmet or with a dubbed voice.
How anyone can prefer this guy to the season 1 actor is beyond me. I'm sure Halfthor is stronger, but the bulky look just looks too modern for me anyway.
Im pretty sure nobody prefers him to the first actor, who was perfectly casted but he had some other project at the time and bailed out so they they had to recast and then recast again. They just kind of gave up on finding a good actor and just went to find the biggest nigga they could and made him wear a helmet most of the time since he has a awful babyface and looks 15 years younger than his characters actual age.
Id rather he not be retarded in any way. Pacifisim is the absolute peak of cuck mentality so if the whole point of the show is fighting = bad then i will definetly drop it.

There is saying: The parties get better as the amount of guests decreases.
No one cares about what other people think about this show.
I really didn't want Vinland Saga to be adapted into anime, because I knew that Vinland Saga threads would be infested with retards like you.
Ofc you would consider someone with a different opinion on pacifism a retard
My take on thors and son philosophy is that they believe it is generally ok for one to fight and kill if it is sufficiently just (should as defending your loved ones or homeland) but that they themselves have lost the right to kill (even when it is just) due to their own unjust killing.
Why does her descendant an hero? It's bullshit. I want #justiceforsaber
They haven't visited finland in this series nor is anyone stated to be finnish. But some background characters may be finnish, as finns they did partake in viking raids.
No, problem is not differing opinion, the problem is retardation. I'm not pacifist, although I see it as respectable if someone wants to be a pacifist. Show about vikings is just the thing that attracts most retarded posters of /pol/, who may not know much anything, but like to call things they don't agree with cucked.
For me its Planetes
Thorkell would like Berserk.
Im not from pol and im calling it cucked because its a self destructive philosophy. The idea of a discussion of pacifism in a viking setting is interesting and i want the show to hold my suspense of disbelief naturally thats hard to do with something i disagree with and even more so when said thing means you automatically lose any form of conflict which cant be solved by diplomacy being shown as something good.
>Yukimura cuck us once again
Show us the Thorfinn answer
Did the Siggy story end yet?
>if you like x, then you must hate y
Animating swinging arms really makes the minimum wage animator hurt.
>when said thing means you automatically lose any form of conflict which cant be solved by diplomacy being shown as something good.
Stories involving pacifism tend to be more about characters inner struggle with himself and how he can make it in violent world. But, wouldn't that be interesting? See how character solves obstacle of people who are needlessly violent without reason. Vinland Saga has its fair share of people who like to act violently because they enjoy it, like Thorkell and Garm.
End this chapter after 4 fucking months,we should get the Thorfinn answer next month
Wouldn't it help with both manga and anime sales if more people were talking about it? A higher budget might also help with quality and number of releases.
Inner struggles are fine and i very much enjoy settings where its a guy trying to prove his view in the world its just that pacifism in particular is too retarded. If it were something more ambiguous i wouldnt have such an issue with it, theres tons of material and real world examples of how pacifism cant survive that its almost impossible for the show to sell me on it. Plus i was expecting less moralfaggotry when thorfinn saw his dad choose death over being with his son.
besides lief who else was canon Christian
Either read the manga or stop talking about the hypothetical story you think Vinland Saga is from various Yea Forums posts. If you want answers now regarding the pacifism in the series, they are below.
There are multiple versions of the pacifistic ideal represented by different characters in the manga. Primarily: Thorfinn, and Thors before his death, represent the supposed "cuck" mentality, and they refuse to fight when there is an alternative. If there isn't, they attempt to win nonlethally. On the other side, Prince Cutenute represents an imposed peace via power. He uses his status as a ruler to conquer and unite the lands, force his enemies to back down, and pacify their autistic warmongering ways. He accepts that people must die but tries not to make many compromises with human life. Those are the main two pacifisms in the story, though Cutenute's is less of a focus than Thorfinn's.
Don't engage with them, maybe they'll leave
the priest chad, forgot his name though
Neither of those are pacifism. Knute in your own words literally forces people to compromise and while thorfinn might not kill anyone that still means he is willing to enter conflict which also means he isnt a pacifist. Thors is the closest to a pacifist and, fittingly, already has the closest end to a pacifist being killed for some retarded reason over the simple and obvious better choice.
>over the simple and obvious better choice
What choice?
Being there for your kid
Being there how? Either Thors died or they all died
Thors couldve killed askkeladds whole crew and as for the archers use askkeladd himself as a human shield. Like i said, thors preferred aome retarded justification to stick to his moral code and die instead of doing something he himself doesnt like for the sake of his kid. Thors is a bad father
>implying they won't time lapse past it
have you ever read a manga before?
Human shield would never work. Askeladd doesn't give a fuck. Either Thors died or they all died
Its not as if they have shields or wood lying around to use as shields either....
Thors LITERALLY breaks the bones of thirty men before sacrificing himself, I don't know what you're talking about.
Good luck avoiding all the arrows when only one of you has ever been to a battle. And then what? They can't get away because the escape route is blocked.

? My point is that he ISNT a pacifist but at the crux moment he gave his life instead of fighting
Thats if they would kill their own leader and you can always jump in the water, there were like 5 archers. There are plenty of ways out and thors could pull off every single one maybe one of the guys with leif died but again thors is doing this to be with his family and having assurance that at least his son wont die. By letting himself be killed he lets thors be at the whim of people who already betrayed honor so staying alive and protecting your son by yourself is the only rational option.
You are really reaching. Even if Thors was alone it would be a miracle if he survived that situation and the rest have no hope at all, so he chose to save his son and the others by giving his life
They will definitely time skip but that doesn't change that we will know what happen
You don't have to like the main character at all.
He bet his sons life on the chance that murderers who already proved they have no honor would spare his kid and that if they tried to kill him a trader and a bunch of teens would protect his son instead of doing it himself. Either let a bunch of unknown factors play out while youre DEAD or (in the worst case scenario) still die but knowing you (with much more potential than your friends) did everything you could to save your kid.
He sensed that Askeladd has some honor because he didn't just kill them right away and accepted the duel. He knows that they can't win and if he gives his life then the rest will live. Even if they broke their promise, they aren't going to kill them, just sell them as slaves. Think what you want about it but the alternative is certain death
Thors chose to hope for the best instead of trying his best. His moral code means more to him than trying to live with his son.
Okay, think that way if you want, but a little kid and a bunch of farmers are not going to avoid arrows from multiple directions for more than 2 seconds and Thors understands this. He's not an idiot
Stop. Stop using reddit speech patterns.
All Thor's had to do is to accept to lead Askeladd's crew, everyone would have been saved.
