Seriously that dude killed like a million people.

He's killed only his slave-owner's family (after years of brutal treatment, judging from the scars all over his body the first time we saw him) and the people who were keeping his wife enslaved. Hardly a psychotic, indiscriminate mass murderer. Not to say I disagree with Snake's point about his men's lives being meaningful too, but you can sympathise with Gardar's actions even if you don't fully condone it.

Yes, more Canute please. Watching the brutal King is so entertaining, and would be a nice change of scene from farmville.

Except you won't get a change of scene from Farmville if we shift the focus to Canute, since Canute is doing all this scheming to get possession of the farm for the purposes of farming on it.

So... is Otoyomegatari still being released, or is there just no one translating it anymore?

The last scanslated chapter (Chapter 25) was released on 24 September, about a month ago. That's not an unusually long release schedule for a monthly series.

Is the giant bloodthirsty Viking who likes Thorfinn on his way to the farm with the king? I can't remember.

You mean Thorkell? He's not there with Canute, unless he's been hiding in the boat.

Well I am pretty sure he's not taking over the farm, he's just raiding it for for the money he can get from taking the food and whatever movable loot or gold he can find. Afterwords he can give the land to whoever he wants to bestow favor or to influence, and it would be on them to supply workers.

He said on this page that he's "increasing his personal land holdings" - http://mangafox.me/manga/vinland_saga/v11/c075/17.html

After going back and rereading the discussion with regards to slaughtering everyone, as I felt like I somehow ended up on the wrong side, the original point was that Canute was likely to kill noncombatants up to and including Arneis, to cover the event up. That is indeed unlikely.

Somehow I got it in my head that people were saying that Canute couldn't afford to kill the pitchfork wielding mob of debtors that makes up the rebel army. It's possible he'll offer them amnesty, or more likely just enslave the survivors, but depending on how big the general population is, killing the combatants probably isn't a huge logistical issue.

Slaughtering everyone who knew of the fight would be a bit more of an economic problem, I agree.

But why does Canute want or need to eliminate any witnesses to the slaughter? He's gotten sufficient justification to attack and confiscate the farm - that was the whole point of that hooded "special agent" flicking the coin into the eye of the soldier to allow Ketil's younger son to "murder" Canute's soldier, so that Canute could trump up charges against Ketil.

It's been more than 50 chapters since the last major battle in the series (Thorkell's army vs Askeladd vs Askeladd's deserters, between Chapter 33 to Chapter 37). I've forgotten how much I missed it, so fantastic has been the quality of Farming Saga.

The most recent Vinland Saga is amazing. Thorfinn is really going all the way with his new philosophy; it seems he's even finally understand what his father meant.

Which means one thing: THORKELL NEEDS TO ENCOUNTER HIM AGAIN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I want to see Thorfinn surviving 100 2 punches from Thorkell.

VVV Fine. VVV

If the author ever decided to draw about the American Civil War, we would learn that Alahamu Limcom-Sama is a transvestite sage and that Lobou Yi Li-Kun was actually a beautiful jungle queen masquerading as a young man. Also, lots of battles are decided by Shounen punches.


Eh, there's not any wackier than Abe Lincoln, Vampire Hunter.

Yeah, Marius's wife was a sister of Caesar's father, while Sulla's first wife was a first cousin of Caesar's father. Caesar was in a pretty darn well-connected family.
