A review by frasersimons
Vinland Saga, Volume 10 by Makoto Yukimura

lighthearted slow-paced

1.5

All but a full volume of filler content. How disappointing. This divergent story that brings in Floki and Thorkill is so boring and it boils down to trying to make the MC fight, yet he never actually is even tested, since it takes all its time with yet another diversion. Some new and young Norse wants to fight the MC now too, just because. No interesting plot development and the previous one isn’t concluded either. 

An extremely weak instalment, especially because it’s also a long omnibus. This series moves far too slowly. And the continued tonal shifts make every tense moment deflated. No idea why that’s such a trend. What is the point of undermining your own story?
