No, it's not. This is supposed to be a historical manga so it's based on real-life events. This means the ending is accurate to what happened in real life.

No it's not. Its an open ending. And if u understood what the ideas Vinland Saga conveyed, then the ending is near perfect.

it actually is anticlimactic. One could say it was following real life events and one could say it wasn't, but it is besides the point.Ait depends on what the audience was expecting from it. It's also an open ending as someone above stated. None of these mean "bad" to me, so it depends on the viewer.

My interpretation of the ending is that the seeds that Thorfinn gives to one of the Lnu and the child that he has are parallels and represent how Thorfinn's inspiration continues in this world. In one of the earlier chapters, it talked about how this was just part of the 2,000 year voyage which continues to the present.

That's why I think it's a great ending and isn't anticlimactic.

For me, I think it was the right decision to end it like that. Thorfin's goal was to create a world without war. The goal seemed impossible, so he reduced it to creating a kingdom where people can live in peace and prosperity without any war.
But it’s a universal truth that even peace can't be brought without war, and Thorfin also realizes that after the massacre that happend in Vinland.

Now, there's nothing left for Thorfin to do. But he still doesn’t want to give up hope. So the story ended in way that it felt like there's still more remaining to it. It tried to portrayed how the mission that Thorfin tried to pull off is still being passed on. Humans still are looking for peace. While there's no solution to this problem, humans are still keeping, looking for the unknown.


Still I didn’t give it a 10. I still think something could be done better, although I can't remember the idea emerged that time since I read it a while ago.

According to real life facts, the ending is perfect and it was how it’s supposed to be. Anyway, Vinland Saga will remain forever a masterpiece, both manga and anime. Can’t wait for season 3 though <3

It wasn't good but it's not trash. It's an open ending with a lot of open questions. I think the end could have been better
