The insane shame of translating the whole series up to right before the encirclement at Cannae and then dropping it will haunt the families of the translators for generations

Now I'm wondering if there was any more significance to Smith throwing away his original pocket watch outside of him venting his frustrations. It would have been too perfect if this had happened, but I half expected Talas to show up with the watch after acquiring it through a series of events. I guess it's just sitting in the dirt now tarnishing.

i can't find the omake in which it occurred right now, but some random guy was shown finding it. the significance that this had, if any, has yet to be shown. i too figured it would feature into smith's return journey and a possible encounter with talas

It was definitely foreshadowing that hinted to readers the dream was still alive, but outside of that who knows. I do feel like maybe it was supposed to go somewhere concrete, but it might have been dropped at this point.

I suspect Mr Hawking (probably actually Hawkins on second glance) is designed to resemble this portrait of Roger Fenton, a British photographer who shot images of the Crimean War.

New Otoyomegatari chapter, bringing us to current until August's hits the stands.

Not a lot of substance, but a little more character development for our friends Niklovski and Hawkins.

Looking forward to seeing some more interaction between Smith and Talas once they hit the road. She hasn't actually smiled this whole time since she first found him again! Granted, she's been through more than her fair share of heartbreak, so maybe it's to be expected she hasn't yet come to grips with her good fortune for a change, but it's a very striking difference between her current withdrawn and hesitant self and the playful side we saw when she put her head scarf on the goat, or the bashful but bright-eyed woman in love again we saw when she first owned up to her attraction to Smith, or the unbridled relief and giddiness when she found Smith again. I just want my precious children to be happy :saddowns:

The hell, that chapter was positively jam-packed with substance, even if it wasn't necessarily plot progression. I was focused on reading every single page, there was a ton of great character development for a preparatory chapter.

Every time I see a Vinland Saga update I'm really happy and excited get more of the adventures of Thorfin and Sigurd and the rest. Then I start reading and see Garm's dumb face and remember he exists and go, "Oh yeah... Him. Ugggh"

Which is a similar reaction to what I imagine the characters in the story having every time he pops up.

I find your symbolism, disturbing.

If the horses really are supposed to foreshadow Smith and Talas' relationship, I don't like what they are foreshadowing.
