heathen, scary monsters?? B^0

heathen: this one is rather tricky bc i haven’t listened as much to the post-let’s dance albums as the ones before, but i find “everybody says ‘hi’” to be very sweet, and it’s the one i’ll remember first together with slow burn. the one i like the least is probably “a better future” bc it’s somewhat monotone/repetitive

scary monsters: it’s such a good album, which is probably bc it’s both a follow-up from the incredible berlin trilogy albums, but also a bit more uhh, catchy overall than the last three. ashes to ashes is probably my favourite while scream like a baby is the one i care the least about

Oh, wait... Your friend dropped VS because the "Farmland Saga" arc? How sad! Vinland Saga it's my favorite manga and still don't know so much about vikings, but the manga awakes my interest in them. >w< And I'll come to talk to you about VS, I love the fact that the fandom is quiet, but it's good see something in the tags! :3

appearently it wasn't exciting enough for him when the fighting stopped and the farming began, but w/e, his loss ;^) yeah, as far as i know of history and vikings, besides making some small changes in birth years, yukimura has done a good job at being historically correct. the name askeladd is the only one that is a bit odd tbh, since it's the name of a norwegian hero in multiple fairytales (askeladden). :^) i'm glad the manga has gotten you interested in the viking age, because imo it's a very interesting time period to study!

Indeed, you're right. Thank you for answer, your words comforted me. \ ( ; w ;) / *Hugs*

awww i'm glad to hear that, and thanks for asking! <3 i rarely get to talk about VS (my only irl friend who knows of it got bored of it when farmland saga began!), so if you want to talk about it some time, feel free to hmu :^)

I can't imagine a Vinland Saga anime, seriously! xD Well, I would be happy for a good adaptation, but it's so... Terrifying. What I mean is thinking about a adaptation scares me because two motives: good/bad adaptation and success. I don't want see a successful anime being a bridge for a bad manga. I said it because the "SnK case": The author don't want "betray" the fans. I know, Makoto Yukimura is not like that, but it scares me. (sorry for the bad english xD)

yeah, i get why you're nervous, because it's such a shame when adaptions don't live up to the original, especially when the manga is such a gem. i don't know much about the snk author or how far they have planned their story, but when it comes to VS, it seems like yukimura has a plan. hell, we know that thorfinn's going to vinland sooner or later, and i doubt that he would let his fans decide the destiny of the characters, or else askeladd and bjorn would still be alive, while canute and thorkell would join thorfinn and company's adventure to the byzantine empire. 

speaking of which, i can't wait to see the portrayal of the empire and the culture shock that will happen!

Do you still read Vinland Saga? If yes, what your opinion about a future anime?

awww yes i do! an anime adaptation would be great, as long as it stays true to the manga, and that it doesn't only focus on the bloody viking fights on the expense of the politics, history and great character development. it would also have to not butcher the "farmland saga" part, which is actually one of my favourite parts of the manga, together with askeladd's last stand. i'm unsure of what the animation would look like, since each panel is so detailed, but hopefully them simplifying the style wouldn't be too much of a problem!
