This will be the reveal that Yukimura is a long term fabrication by Araki, and Thorfinn has actually been Dio the whole time.

This won't happen. Thorfinn now is pretty set on pacifism and considering she's got a legit complaint against him. If there's a fight it'll be him disarming her and trying to calm her down.

429 just popped up on Batoto earlier today, I assumed that was the one he was referring to.

Probably he'll tell her to wait, set the baby down (right now Karli's on his back), then say "Ok, if you want to shoot me, go ahead."

He's probably freaking out because the other people in his group might kill her to save him, and he's now to blame for another death. Given that he killed her family in front of her, and would've killed her if she hadn't escaped she's pretty much the physical personification of his past coming back to haunt him.

It was pretty funny for his ascension "No one opposed him" and it cuts to a bunch of injured and broken looking old men.

Other Thorfinn is the best. He's pretty much perfect comic relief in every situation.

I bet Einar's right about the poison being a bluff, especially with how Full Eyes is having symptoms already.

And more than how he's going to fight... I wonder how he's going to soothe her bloodlust while respecting what she's been through. I assume she's going to have her mind changed and join their merry party, but that's a pretty serious thing to have your mind changed about.

Vinland saga is just great. I love how serious thing fighting always is in that serious, no matter who Thorfinn is facing it's always the real loving deal and it's extremely dangerous. Are there any other series that has this?

Also the art is just absolutely amazing.

I mostly just want it because the alternative of her dying but maybe forgiving him a little bit is such a really played out ending for this kind of setup, it would be disappointing. She's a cool character too though so it'd be sad to leave her behind either way.

You might want to check out Vagabond, a biography of Miyamoto Musashi. The fights tend to be more serious and philosophical than being huge action set pieces, though they're also really nice to look at since the art is fantastic.

I hope we get more of Ghost-Askeladd giving commentary.

VS: Askeladd dying was so loving amazing in every way, just that entire scene throughout, with the only bad part bring that we lost the most interesting character of the series along with it. Ghost Askeladd is a cheap replacement, but it'll do so long as it doesn't get played out too much.

I have definitely been buying the Vinland Saga books. At the price they're selling them they're incredibly good value compared to getting 2 separate paperback tankobons. Plus they're hardcover and even come with color pages and bonus material! It's really worth it.
