The ghosts spooked me. So now she lets Thorfinn off the hook, I wonder if Hild's going to join the gang. Good chapter
Let’s say you drink too much strawberry milk, and have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. You don’t want to get up, but the urge to urinate is just too strong! You run to the bathroom, stand in front of the toilet, and let loose! You think that all your life has led to this moment! YOU'RE STILL IN BED! That feeling of lukewarm wetness spreads! But you can’t stop! THAT’S THE TRUTH OF THE STRAWBERRY MILK! DO YOU GET IT? ~ Gintoki

A land of peace huh? Sounds easier said than done but we'll see..

That could of ended a lot nastier than it could of been if it wasn't for the intervention.

Kinda feel Thorfinn was saved by plot armour but at least it's over now.

Finally she accepted a half-ass reason for forgiveness. Now continue the story.
All credit goes to Sacred.

Thank God that she didn't have a change of heart 'cause of Einar's clamouring.

The author has a very good sense of humour.
I wonder if thorfin will limp from own on. Those are grave injuries.

A bit of plot armour to be honest, but it was expected.

More and more people are coming to Vinland now.

Supernatural elements aren't new to Vinland Saga, but when it's done like that it sure makes for a cheesy resolution. At least we can move on.

This kinda reminded me of the '' deep and symbolic'' scenes in Vagabond, where Ueda returns from the dead as a ghost , does ufo abductions on Otsu and vomits philosophical BS. The conclusion to the Thorfinn/Hild conflict could have been done better, but overall it was a good chapter.

When Hild saw the ghosts of her father and master, that was really poweful and I teared a bit up there.


I'm glad that she hasn't forgiven Thorfinn just like that and that he has to work for it. The dynamics between those two will be pretty interesting. In any case, this was a good ass arc and nice that there will be another person on board.

Yep. I knew she would be joining. I wonder just how big the crew is going to be in the future.

I honestly loved this chapter, shows that while she's not ready to forgive him, she can't just throw away the teachings of her father and master.

Oh, please... stop recycling all those archetypes without giving them an ounce of appeal.

2/5


Volume 17
And yet another outstandingly out-of-time freak is joining the crew of future settlers !
This is becoming increasingly more of a mediocre humorous adventure with historical context. Sure, the adventure/redemption story was something that was bound to happen from the beginning but to adopt this tone is not particularly welcomed.
Also, this sub-story took too long of a time (an entire volume) : the situation was clear and didn't need to lost a full chapter on a flashback to fill an anecdote from a past jump in the larger story.

Score: 5/10
Enjoyment: 2/5
