Vinland Saga Chapter 28 Discussion

Excellent, excellent chapter. Gruesome and brutal, just like the Middle Ages were, specially if you were poor.

Berserk is way above epic... this manga cant even be compared to it.

Ugh, that was brutal.  More brutal than anything in Berserk or anything of that ilk.  Its because Vinland Saga's atrocities are reality-based, whereas other manga usually are more fantastical.



Also, you have to know the ideology was different at that time. Human lives are not worth that much at that time, where survival of the fittest is everything. Compassion and love and all those concept only become prevalent when some of these basic survival needs are satisfied.



So it was not really that shocking given the historical context. It is what it is... It's my own nihilistic view but once again, it's just an objective view on things.

Ouch! harsh... and that must've sucked to have been the girl who witnessed that slaughter... but I wonder why the leader of the Danes is a christian. I just thought of it but it makes no sense, I mean why would his mother have any say in his religion.




Because he loved his mother and hated his father, which is why he hates his father's blood and denounces it as his.

Oh god, that girl's innocence is gone
