Vinland Saga Chapter 172 Discussion

Uhh, I understand what Thorfinn wants to do, but I also can't disagree with Eyvar. If the people of Vinland ever got aggressive, Thorfinn's team would be like sitting ducks, without any means to even defend themselves. It's sad, but there's just no way for them to live there without any conflicts, without killing or dying.

Well, we'll see how it turns out.



Technically, they will still have weapons: spears and bows. So they won't be at a complete disadvantage.

the brothers only think in himself!!!

I found this chapter quite profound. Thorfinn understands that the presence of such a weapon does nothing but escalate any situation, no matter how you justify its presence.



It's disappointing to see comments about how "this manga sucks now," presumably because it isn't violent (at the moment). I still think there's a lot to look forward to; their inevitable adventure, Hild's character development, and the situations Thorfinn will have to negotiate without weapons.   not really because it's not violent, but in the farm arc the writing, character development and themes were beautiful. now it doesn't feel as good

Decent chapter. The dialogue was a hit-miss for me but I did like the imagery of it. The ending with Gudrid being Gudrid with Thorfinn was really cute not going to lie. Whenever I see her, she's got that really charming and likable and caring attitude with her Thorfinn that kind of makes me feel good about myself so she saved it for me.

I don't understand how the author managed to turn this manga into such idealistic tripe. Embarrassing to say the least.



I'm assuming you're being sarcastic ? Because that is what this manga has been building up to for years now. It doesn't come out of the blue, at all.

Thorfinn sure is reluctant LOL!

Best Chapter in a while. Thought it was great.
