Still one of my favorite manga. I do like that they've cut back to Canute- his story promises to be quite interesting still.Zorak posted:So has Canute lost his philosophy to greed or is it a front...?

New Chapter Things are moving along pretty fast it seems. Needs more pages though, only 21 pages once a month isn't enough.

History time! The English king who died off screen this chapter was known as Ethelred the Unready, which is a hilariously insulting epithet, but is actually a mistranslation of an Old English pun. He was really called Ĉŝelrĉd Unrĉd, his name Ĉŝelrĉd literally meaning 'good advice,' and his epithet Unrĉd litereally meaning 'bad advice.' This probably refers to the bad advice he had been given throughout his life, rather than any personal failing on his part (though certainly the fact that he took the bad advice says something). As for the chapter: drat, Canute. He has come a long way from the quiet kid in the cart who looked like a girl.

We need to get off this farm and back to the madness. It's going to be hilarious when it turns out all the fighting took place in the prologue. From here on out it's just farming, followed by sailing, followed by some more farming. Thrill as Thorfinn learns the advantages of rotating crops. Laugh as the sailors refuse to lend Einar a sextant. Cry as corn smut(no really, its an actual disease) ravages the Vineland crops.

Monthly series should not be only 20 pages long. My balls are turning an unhealthy shade of blue.

I for one love their farming adventures. A further year of this might kill me, but for now I can't explain it, but I'm enjoying it.

I guess if you had read all the way through the kick rear end prologue this might be a nice change of pace but at the rate that it comes out is just so slow that it feels like nothing is happening.

That said I hate monthly manga in general (even the awesome ones like this one) for being so drat slow. Farms are awesome, though. Einar's really growing on me.

This series would actually make perfect sense if it became a manga about farming and sailing.

Thorfinn is learning how to be a human again. It can't all be epic horse punching, and good character development is never a bad thing.

I dunno about you guys, but I love the farming chapters. I still wish the chapters were longer, but not because it's about farming, I just wish we got MORE Vinland Saga overall. So ya, it's definitely not a writing issue, it's just a release pacing issue, me.

You'll hear no arguments from me here. The farming wouldn't be a big deal for me if I didn't have to wait 2 months to get to the next issue of Vinland Saga 65: Need a plow.

Hey y'all got it easy. Waiting for new chapters about farming might be rough, but i started this bastard when chapter 1 came out, and waiting for the second half to a fight is even worse :| I was just happy that I forgot about it for like a year and had a bunch to catch up on
