Vinland Saga 6

This is the sixth omnibus in the Vinland saga. It was an excellent continuation of this historical fiction manga. This continues to be a very well done manga with lots of interesting history, engaging characters, an epic plot, and beautiful illustration. Canute’s plans to become the ruler of the Danish world takes an unexpected turn when he ends up seizing the Ketil Farm to further his ambitions. Meanwhile Thorfinn is a slave on that same farm and is hoping to work towards his freedom soon. Things get complicated when Thorfinn’s best friend Einar decides to help Arnheid (whom he is infatuated with). Arnheid’s husband has escaped from slavery on a nearby farm and Arnheid becomes determined to help him stay free. These books continue to be full of a lot of war, violence, and heart-breaking tragedy. I think they really do a great job of showing the stretches of boredom interspersed with war and violence. The illustration, especially the background scenes, in this manga continues to be absolutely stunning and amazing. It is incredibly well done. All of the characters have a lot of depth and are amazingly interesting and detailed as well. I continue to also enjoy the commentary on history at that time between sections of the book. Thorfinn continues to be my favorite character and this is a hopeful book for him, but you can tell bad things are on the horizon. It was interesting to see how much Canute has changed since earlier books as well. The story’s main focus is Arnheid and we learn her tragic backstory as well as the story of her husband. Overall an absolutely awesome continuation of the Vinland Saga. I am thoroughly enjoying this manga; every aspect of it is just so well done. I can’t wait to see what omnibus 7 holds for us. This is a highly recommended manga; especially to those who enjoy historical fiction.

I loved the original arc and just seeing the drastic turn the story took when it got to the farm, I was like ok, I wonder where this is going??? And I really enjoyed the story but it was like meeting a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT character when we see thorfinn and also I personally love the whole King Canute and other vikings and all the crazy battles. It was ver different but still very good and still throughly enjoyed it. Really wanna see where they go from here?

Awesome product

If you are a fan of the Anime, this Arc specifically will really move you. The added details make it a memorable read.

This serie is hands down my favorite. The art, the story, everything is flawless. I cannot believe the amount of research that went into the creation of this masterpiece. I was surprised and happy that the series publication picked back up after a long hiatus and it is just perfect. If you plan to read this series, prepare to get blown away by the sheer splendor of: 1. The art. It is beautiful, detailed and it conveys everything portrayed. Emotions and historical accuracy. 2. The story itself. It may unfold slowly but it delivers powerfully. Volume 6 is by far my favorite though volume 4 is right behind it. I cannot recommend this story enough! If you like manga, even if you don't, do yourself a favor and pick up Vinland Saga, you won't be sorry!

10/10

One of the best volumes of the series. One of my issues with mangas and animes is that due to the commercial nature of the work and the super quick pace the artists have to keep up to produce and how the successful stories are asked to be stretched in general the arguments easily decay into a succession of fights or from cliffhanger to cliffhanger. This is not the case with Vinland saga, there is character growth with the different arches. Also the story is not just centered in the main character/s but gives a really good overview of the world they live in. The documentation work to reflect the era is one of the bests I've seen in comics. The work on the backgrounds is great and the art on the characters is something I liked always in Makoto who can find a great way to be realistic and cartoonish in the right proportions. Great series can't wait for the next one

good stuff.

Great book thanks

The narrative returns to a more flowing form after what became a genuine halt and character reset in volume 5. Great art and a good effort at historical fiction.

Me encanta esta parte del arco de farmland, llego en perfecto estado, lo recomiendo al 100%.

The book cover was flipped and the print did not fit the pages. This is the only Vinland saga volume which disappointed me - not in the story but in the quality of book order
