good chapter
it was nice to see Askeladd again, so Thorfinn gets some more character development and vows to part from violence, wonder how long that will last

sucks that we wont get another chapter for 2 more months

"I will never hurt anyone ever again"

Man, that's a pretty bold statement. I really hope things work out, although as said in the manga, it definitely will be a struggle, and he's gonna have to put up one hell of a fight.

Thorfinn was always good at fighting and killing, but it seems he will be needing a different type of strength now.

i wonder how low will he last in this petty state -_-

Great chapter. Not loving this new idea of his, but I'm sure that'll last about two chapters.

the art in the nightmare was great really berserk like but his resolve was a little bit lame never use violent has he forgotten in which time he lives.....

Best chapter in months.

Haha. First thing I read the chapter I knew poeple are going to be disappointed with his resolve. I wonder, have those people already forgot about Thorfinn's father?

Yea, obviously the answer isn't refusing to fight. It's fighting a cause worth fighting for. Taking down a certain corrupt king, a king Thorfinn himself helped to become a king seems like a good cause to me.

Come on Thorfinn...
lets kick some ass

Hated thorfin new resolve. He is a warrior in the middle ages, what else is he good for? Is Thorfin an intelligent character that will rationalize a pacific solution to solve the many problems and injustices around him ? Is he skilled enough to neutralize his opponents without killing them (like Rurouni Kenshin)? I don`t think so, he has been a soldier, a lethal weapon , always letting others do the thinking for him.

Thnks for th link Ore-no-Username. Just in case I want to say I am not agaisnt character development. I will like for Thorfin to change into something else, but the guy went into his personal hell, he was told to "became a real warrior" and "go and take the ones you killed with you" . And what does he makes out of this ? He will atone for als his murders, okay I can see that, no more senseless killing, like Manji or guts, Cool. But the he says " I will not hurt anybody again", that phrase is not Guts, Manji or Kenshin, not even Balsa. The times are hard and the guy is good with violence, what is he going to do now? Talk down his enemies? Is Thorfin now ghandi?

Nope, he looks more like Mother Teresa to me. Will probably get a gender change later on and Vinland Saga will transform into a border-H 4-koma gag manga.

I'll always love Thorfinn, Emo or not. Whether he's killing people... well, that's just a minor detail.

Yeah right...... or maybe a yaoi manga, thorfin and his farmer buddy are already having a bromance, and since they are not having any luck with women it is the next logical step. Either that or thorfin try his hardest to be ghandi and fails and becames like kenshin. I think it is 50-50.

Ugh, another dream sequence where a character makes a heel-face-turn in one chapter just like Canut? The character development in this manga is so frustrating, it's the only major thing holding back the series for me. Still, it will be interesting to see how the series will progress with a pacifistic Thorfinn.

Goddamn, I miss Askeladd. ;_;



Agreed. I don't have any qualms about his new ideals at all. But still, I won't be surprised if when all hell breaks loose, Berserker Thorfinn will come out again.

Why was Askeladd there? Thorfinn didn't kill him.

It was a dream, in dreams anything can happen. Anything.
And Askeladd was the cause of Thorfinn's killings in the first place.

i love the chapter
i wonder how this will continue O.o also i like the new determination of Thorfinn :D
and see Askeladd once again was great and nostalgic T_T
