Vinland Saga Chapter 63 Discussion

GOD! This is a monthly series and still only twenty pages and the original poster was able to perfectly summarize everything that happened in no more than two sentences. This was really disappointing. I don't want this any more. Wasn't this supposed to be a manga about epic viking wars instead of LOL FARMING!? rant/

What are people smoking? This stuff is pretty good

Only 20 pages? Are you kidding me? Damn, I need more.

Slice of life Viking style?

It must have been tough to the people waiting a month to read such a chapter. Pretty slow stuff.

I'm happy with how the manga is too but I just caught up today.

Welcome to the waiting party.

5/5, Loved it. I'm a huge fan of Harvest Moon so I really like the direction this manga is going. I think when they get their freedom they should purchase a bigger farm and a seed mixer. Those are immensely profitable from what I remember in the Nintendo 64 Harvest Moon.lmao

Should remember that the author is only a human too when wondering why the chapters are so short. Is it just me or is there generally a lot of complaining about waiting and chapter lenghts in manga discussions.

And chapters like these are only expected at this point and forward so he can build the story to lead to somewhere. If Thorrfin suddenly just woke up one day and killed his way out of the farm it would be just silly.



I'm completely satisfied with the manga and the pace. I was referring to people who think the story is dragging and the pace has slowed down. I dont agree with that. I think it only seems that way because 1. serialization limit. Its monthly and yet shorter than some other monthly manga's, and I was assuming thats because the author's having problem with length due to serialization restrictions, and 2. like you pointed out, its authors way of building up on the story- I've read Planetes and I know this is part of his style (and I love it). But then I again I get what you mean. The author switched from weekly serialization to monthly back in the beginning because he found it difficult to keep up with the weekly schedule.

But I also think those are the reasons people are left complaining and wanting for more after each chapter. The one's 'complaining' are either the action junkies who loved the first arc for its fast paced action and political intrigue, but cant connect to the drama/character development of the second arc, OR the one's who just cant get enough of the series.

I personally have no problem with it, but it would've been awesome all the same if the chapters were longer, like it used to be

you know i think this manga would be way more enjoyable if read all in one go - aka put it on hold, and wait until its finished, or another 50 odd chapters are out or something. I THINK I MIGHT DO THAT. GLAD YOU LISTENED



Finally a person with brains. I am currently marathon it and i can't see what the other complain about. Their frustration isn't from the manga becoming bad or anything but because they get few pages every month so they want every story telling element to disappear because they can't wait.

PUT IT ON HOLD ALREADY!!! The manga isn't bad the lack of material is.
