What even is Ymir? It's... not supposed to exist in such a realistic setting. Also, naming it Ymir, seriously? An AoT reference? In any case, it just feels wrong. How is it even able to speak? To express its desire for human flesh? It also came literally out of nowhere, no forshadowing. Really odd.lol what did you really think it's an aot reference? Ymir is a giant in Norse mythology.

The shining reference made this a 10/10 chapter.



That beast was so fucking random. Like, where tf did that even come from? There were no fucks given throwing that thing in lmao

I fucking died when I saw Thorkell pulled a Here's Johnny. Yuki Mura just keeps getting more and more self aware with this story.

okay okay okay.....



....now, WTF??? Seriously? A troll? When did Makoto Yukimara stop giving a damn?

Now I've got to go and watch The Shining after seeing Thorkell's face all up in the door.

Ymir calling Floki papa?  Who the hell is Ymir's mother?!  Yuck!!

I hope Baldr ends up traveling with Thorfin's crew.

haha love the shining reference

What the fuck was Ymir supposed to be? LMAO

The only thing I know is that the Jomsvikings mentioned they had some sorta "secret weapon" a few chapters before, but I didn't expect it to be that monster LMAO. I guess there had to be a way of stopping Thorkell...



So after checking some things, I can say that genetics are quite strange sometimes... Ymir may be an actual human with really weird genetic disorders which caused him to be mentally retarded, huge and with a lot of hair... I guess.

Here's Thorkell Ymir is just big  Most of the Vikings could take him down

The Shining reference was gold.



But for real, tho. Where the heck did Floki pull this beast from??

HAHAHAHAHA THORKELL WANT TO KILL SO HARD
