So far its pretty awesome. Its got shades of berserk without all the demons. First chapter is 88 pages long and well worth the read.



Heres a little blurb from the insert by the author.

I am not a strong man.
I am not good at athletics.
I do not have the slightest shred
of competitiveness or bravery.
I don't fight now, even if i did
as a boy.

If I come across a scary-looking
man in the street, I will point
my head down so as not to
make eye contact and quietly
sneak around the side.
That is the kind of man
who is drawing this manga.
It even surprises myself

Looks awesome.

Was a nice read, I'll definitely continue with it.

Yukimura can do no wrong.

Cool, the book I am currently reading had a small article on Vinland - how the Vikings left after 10 years due to the hostility of the native Americans there.

 

[FnordChan]

Kick ass. I'll definately check this out posthaste.

Manga that isn't "hay guys we can do Evangelion/Naruto too!" garbage. A rarity in these recent times

 

[Littleberu]

I liked it. Didn't like the boy though. He was like ultra cool super powerful boy. There's too much of that these days.

By the creator of Planetes... about Vikings... like Berserk... pic of random dude getting stabbed in the eye.

SOLD!

Somebody got a working link? Both that link, and going to the main page work, but it just downloads a 208kb file.

Chapter 3 is out.

Hooray for everything.

Planetes was beautiful and wonderful all at the same time, and I have high hopes for Vinland Saga to repeat that majestic appeal.
