Vinland Saga 7

This is the 7th volume in the Vinland Saga series. I have been absolutely loving this series and this book was another spectacular one in the series. The illustration, the plot, and the characters are absolutely phenomenal and so well done. King Canute is on his way to confiscate Ketil’s farm for his own use. Ahnheid gets caught in the middle of it all when Ketil finds out about her betrayal as well. Ketil is beset on all sides by betrayal and seems to be trapped. However, one man’s despair is another man’s fortune...and Thorfinn finds himself in the position to suddenly be free of all the politics. Even with the opportunity to finally be free Thorfinn struggles with leaving Ketil behind when he has some personal sway with King Canute… The illustration in these mangas remains top notch and amazingly detailed...I love looking at the illustration in here. Characters are always easy to distinguish from each other, the story is easy to follow, and the backgrounds are amazing. The story has been epic and very well done. I enjoy the comments between books on the actual history of the region and also enjoy the maps showing Thorfinn’s journeys. This is a pretty emotional installment. What happens with Ahnheid is devastating (women really seem to have it rough in this series). The good thing though is that there is hope for the future too; I especially enjoyed the end of the book and where Thorfinn is going. I won’t go into detail because of spoilers, but it was wonderful to see Thorfinn have some happiness. Overall this is one of my absolutely favorite manga series. This is the one manga I immediately buy when a new one releases. Everything about this manga is perfect. Highly recommended to fans of historical manga; or just manga in general. Heck, I would recommend this series to everyone...it’s just so well done.

In the first volume, Vinland Saga was primarily a story of war and revenge set in a historical-fiction 11th century Viking Europe, but as the series progressed it has become more fleshed out by the author Makoto Yukimura. By volume seven he has included themes such as love, hope, family, betrayal, slavery, and death as the main characters struggle within themselves and against other characters to find their own ideal path; the way of "a true warrior." It's honestly been so long since I've enjoyed a manga with the intensity that I enjoy this one. It's far from perfect, but it's been an especially refreshing read after many recent light novels and manga have been devoting themselves to more traditional tropes such as being transported to fantasy worlds with RPG elements. It is clear the author is trying to write something more substantial and tackle deep subjects through his characters. Be warned that this series often depicts acts of war, such as beheadings, violent bloody combat, and implied sexual assault. This is not a series meant for young audiences. As for Kondasha Comic's production, it has a solid hardcover with a nice spine and each volume actually contains two of the normal tankobon-sized books worth of content, so you get nearly 400 pages with each volume. It's built to last, has an unique story, and is worth the price.

El libro es excelente calidad

Great read. No matter which one it is but by far, FOR ME, this has been the best of this new arc of being at the farm and introducing Einar and Snake and Ketil and all the other characters. It was very good but not as great the earlie

I'm a really, really picky reader of comics, and this is definitely one of the best! You will be blown away by the incredible art, edge-of-seat storytelling, and in-depth research the author did! This is one of a very short list of books that I completely devour as soon as I get my hands on one. Even when the story veers away from awesome Viking action, the "slower" parts are just as edge-of-seat, leaving you completely shocked that you found something that's normally "mundane" in other stories to be SO ENGROSSING in Vinland Saga! Everybody needs to read this series!

one of my fav series atm.

This is one of the greatest stories of all time. This is one of the greatest arcs of all time. This is some of the most emotional, incredible character development ever displayed in a story.

Good stuff.

This manga is one of my favourites of all time, if not my favourite. Farmland Saga arc is the best and one of the best arcs in manga of all time. P E R I O D

Bon manga
