So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

Maybe it just stuck in my mind better because it's more recent, but I have to throw in a vote for Two Dorks Try To Fix A Wagon, Fail Miserably.

They got all the way from Denmark to Iceland and back with like less than a year of on-boat chapters. Making way better time than Guts and co.

Vinland Saga is paced just right in my opinion. We usually get through about one sub-arc each year.

Still looking forward to seeing how he reconciles Thorfinn's in-comic ideals with the reality of what happened to the Vinland settlement.

All Floki's carefully laid plans are going to be for naught after Thorkell finds out who robbed him of a sweet fight.

Kodansha never stopped. Apparently interest was high enough* that they're gonna keep going.

Eh, why not?
Finally read/caught up with Historie...man, what a great manga. I'm irrationally upset that I feel like history class has spoiled me because I "know" what's gonna happen. Then again, seeing the author spin those things into a cohesive narrative is part of the fun. Really curious about what the end game for this series would be. (Do I...put history stuff under spoiler tags or...I don't know. Uh, to be on the safe side and not upset anyone...) Wonder if they are gonna stop the manga at Alexander dying or if they are gonna go all the way to Eumenes' death. Because his death was pretty hardcore and that would make the manga ending pretty depressing. There's not a lot of historical evidence of what/who Eumenes' son ended up being if I recall, so maybe the author could do something about that. No idea.

Rody One Half

The manga is about Eumenes, not Alexander.

Hopeford
Oct 15, 2010

Eh, why not?
I know, I was thinking more along the lines of wondering if the manga is gonna go through Eumenes' entire life or just go through a narrative arc and end on a major historical event.

I certainly hope so, I mean that's part of what I'm in for. Alexander is boring and done to death, and he's not much better in this snakeface form. Diadochi or bust!

Now it's time for Thorkell to absorb Vagn's forces and go after floki, and then Canute itself.

Garm is kinda hot. People are saying he reminds them of how Thorfinn used to be but I think he seems more like a young Thorkell.
