Did some research on who is actually "supposed" to be scanning Otoyomegatari. The group called Scantily Clad that was translating it for awhile apparently "gave" it to some group called Maigo. However, they say that they didn't actually pick it up and they basically just said they were giving it to them to get rid of it. So basically, no one.

It can't possibly be as good as Otoyomegatari... Fingers crossed that someone sensible will pick it up soon.

Supposedly these guys picked it up: http://thmmy.wordpress.com/ But the two releases they did of it were just using a translation some guys did on 4chan and doing the release using it. So... nothing reliable.

Whoops I did a thing (Otoyome chap 20) I'm not real proud, this one's quick and dirty, but hopefully it's readable. Anyone who feels like it can try and touch it up.

Do you know what time it is? Because I know what time it is. It's time for a new goddamn chapter of Vinland Saga. Finally, some good old-fashioned beheadings

JosephWongKS posted:Holy poo poo, Thorgill. Yup, god drat is he hard core or what. They were saying in the past that he was amongst the best in Canute's troops. I have to say though. Why the hell does one of the underlings know the full plan? He could have had separate set of people with the onnes provoking the situation being the only ones to know. The people sent to arrest them could have been kept in the dark. Munin fucked around with this message at 12:54 on Nov 26, 2011 |

I mean, seriously... why does it take this guy a month to make? He left the background of Perinthus a sketch, for goodness sake. I'm sure he's got to have a bunch of other work or something, but it's still frustrating. This would be a short uneventful chapter for a weekly manga. I guess Historie's been like that for a while, but a short uneventful chapter during a long uneventful arc... you can kind of accept. A short uneventful chapter during a really exciting arc... that's something else. Still, cant wait for the naval battle. Eiba fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Nov 26, 2011 |

He could have had separate set of people with the onnes provoking the situation being the only ones to know. The people sent to arrest them could have been kept in the dark. Because just because Canute is capable of keeping us tongue doesn't mean his agents are. Presumably the guys sent to taunt Canute weren't told, but the rest of the "special forces" or guard or whatever had to be be let known who they were arresting, just so they didn't do something else like actually let them go or try to kill them themselves. As Thorgill said, it was policy to let this poo poo slide: the guards had to be let known that the policy wouldn't apply to Thorgill etc, and to expect what was going to happen since they were a key part of the plan. I'm guessing the key issue here going out is that Canute is vastly underestimating his opponents. He's sending a 104 men, including Jomsvikings which are loving tough, true, but all it needs is a certain tall rear end viking who likes murdering people as much as Thorgill to show up and decide he likes Thorgill for everything to get craaazy.

There is also the matter of the escaped slave that made his way to Ketil Farm. We don't know what he will do when Canute's forces come, or how good of warrior he is.

I'm guessing he'll be pacifistic and it'll get tons of people killed as a result, leaving him doubting his path.

I was about to say that would be historically inaccurate, but I guess Thorfinn No. 2 can go to Vinland instead.

Although, I really see a path to Thorfinn Ripping poo poo Up. You gotta remember he has still been having these nightmares, and though he has seemingly settled upon a path of peace, I can still see him having a black out of sorts and just murderizing every enemy in his path. I'll put it at 50-50 at this point. I'm just not ready to canonize Thorfinn, you know.

I've been trying to get into Historie but the first few chapters are just so aggressively bland. On the first few pages of the first chapter a girl gets eviscerated and it's the most thing. Every panel is stiff with people staring at each other. I really want to like Historie, it's rare that we get stories about classical times, but... does it get better?

Unfortunately it definitely has its weak spots and overall it just isn't as well developed as either Otoyomegatari or Vinland Saga.

The first few chapters were a bit slow, but liked the art style so I stuck with it. You won't be disappointed! Unless you finish reading all the available material, then you'll be really sad because there's nothing left.

I'm about 60 chapters into Historie and it really is getting better. A couple chapters had basically scribbles for backgrounds, I assume the assistants were out sick those weeks. Really enjoying the setting and development of Eumenes/Alexander though.

The artist's faces have the approximate expressiveness of B^U, but you can't deny how epic the large-scale battle panoramas are. Also Eumenes is boss.
