Infinitum posted:Remember the last time a cool bloody series got animated? They called it Berserk and they hosed up the start and stopped making episodes for it.. The berserk anime is pretty amazing and even with that terrible cliff hanger ending it still wraps in a kind of neat way, plus all the supernatural faggotry and epic non endingness of the manga wasn't highlighted by it. (I want the manga to end so the series doesn't cut off when the author dies and also I like resolution woop.)

Volume posted:You'll hear no arguments from me here. The farming wouldn't be a big deal for me if I didn't have to wait 2 months to get to the next issue of Vinland Saga 65: Need a plow. Hey y'all got it easy. Waiting for new chapters about farming might be rough, but i started this bastard when chapter 1 came out, and waiting for the second half to a fight is even worse :| I was just happy that I forgot about it for like a year and had a bunch to catch up on

Vire posted:I just looked back at the beginning of the manga to now the later chapters and the art has gotten insanely detailed compared to the start. I honestly don't know how he gets those chapters done in a month with the amount of detail and crosshatching he dose it's ridiculous. I mean it would take me 4 hours just to trace one panel let alone the whole page. To be fair I'm sure there's a few assistants working on the details.

Zorak posted:Somehow I get the feeling that Thorfinn is going to hulk out to save those kids, even though they're thieves, and that'll be the thing that gets him moving out of the farm. Since when did thorfin give two shits about kids? It seems more like the master has a problem with the kids being punished. He seems kind of perturbed by the whole thing when they are presented to him at the end there.

Emma is amazing and I end up rereading the whole thing maybe once or twice a year. The series is pretty decent too but I much prefer the manga, simply because it's easier to blow through now that I've watched it already, plus the series leaves out a whole bunch. I liked what I read about Mori's new work, but it wasn't far along when I did so I'm gonna wait on that one for a awhile before trying to five back in. Interesting if a little creepy what with arranged marriages between rocking gal and like a 12 year old boy.

Yeah, unless he plans to play with it a little to subvert the trope, that guy is fuckin dead. Not to mention, the old man and the master are both going to be gone it looks like, so maybe a less kind slave owner will take over..?

Roommate and I marathoned through all of "Victorian Romance Emma" last night. i'd watched the first season and read through the manga like 3 times, but I was unaware the second season had an 'anime original end". It wasn't awful, but when I read things like "it was originally supposed to have 3 seasons" it sort of bums me out because there was so much better material in the manga. Way more subdued and less forced. Adding in a 'we have to gather money to save the Jones company!' subplot and making Emma a wavering character at the end was almost straight out of some bullshit american romcom movie. Things wrapped up a little too easily and everyone was suddenly WAY too supportive out of no where when none of the other problems actually went away (like for instance, marrying a maid being a really hard path for both the gentry and the woman.) They made it out like Emma wasn't sure if she wanted to be with Will, when it's waaaaay more about being uncomfortable in the spotlight.

Cerebral Bore posted:Lotta people judging an ancient barbarian by modern standards of morality, ITT. Hell, Thorfinn has probably racked up ten times the bodycount that Gardar managed to, and I don't recall people not caring about what happened to him. Presentation counts. It's sad but because of the slave wife and how it affects her, not because he was some great dude. Not to mention he clearly loves her and his dead son, and wanted to fix things for them, at least. Plus, given his addled broken mind, it hard not to feel bad about the whole situation, even if you don't think his death is the worst thing in the world.

Not sure that would bother too many people his combat would probably be less alien than his new pacifism.

Rodyle posted:I recently found the first volume at the library (hardcover, it's really nice), because apparently VS actually got licensed at some point, and read a bit of that. MAN you forget after years and years of serialization how some of that early stuff really comes around, like how the whole "a true warrior needs no swords" thing was something Thors said. Yeah, I just read back through it last month or so. It really incredible. Monthly the farm arc feels long but it passes like a flash.
