Vinland Saga Chapter 80 Discussion

I think Thorfinn is going to become the Viking Gandhi.It seems so and it's kind of lame. Good to be like that in reality, not very good if you are the main guy of a manga with violence in violent times.

im just waiting for canute to invade the farm and will have to face thorfinn...



More like having to face Snake.



Btw is Thorfinn even good at fighting anymore? Skill obtain in battle start to rust if you do not use them for a very long time. Also he was a kid when he was fighting so the rustiness will become even bigger especially considering his battle method was based on jumping around like a monkey. Can he even jump around like that now that his getting older and his out of practice?

Wondering how long this huge build-up will take. Read three chaps together, and unlike most of you, I can see the progress. Obviously I'd be pissed if I had to read it once a month like you people lol...better to put it on hold for a few months and read a couple of chapters together.



Also, the length of the chapters is too short.

                        80''s out, quite short thoguh ;/

It's not just that the chapters are short, they're just not advancing anything.



The point is that Yukimura gives us hope once in a while by making an actually interesting chapter (last month's, the ones with brand new king Canute, Thorfinn's dream, etc) and then he goes on with creating Farmland Saga all over again, it's getting frustrating, really. I have nothing against Thorfinn's change, it's just that last year was basically all about cliffhangers and unfinished plot lines.

Urgh. Why does this have to be a monthly release? These chapters feel so damn short.

Snake is mutch stronger than expected.

The look on Einar's face at the very end....wonder what he's going to do.

i suppose snake wasn't just all talk

yea i think maybe king canute will kill einar and thorfinn will find a happy medium between his previous bloodlust and  his new preachy pasifism.

It might have something to do with the rate of how often the group gets a new chapter, how often a new chapter is actually released or that they get a few , then spread them out monthly so as to not create even longer delays.

I'm a little dissapointed though, it was one of these meaningless chapters again ...

That's pretty much what I'm getting at though. It's not just that the chapters are short, they're just not advancing anything or at least I'm not seeing it just yet (aside from obviously canute marching straight to Thorfinn).

That was over quicker than I expected. I actually feel sorry for the guy.
