Yay, seinen manga tiemz

i. Saint Young Men: Okay, there's nothing to spoil here but dude! Double chapter! Celebrating winter holidays FTW. Why are those two so adorable and funny?

ii. Historie: Er, what the fuck. I mean, okay, it's not like they weren't hinting Alexander was fucked up in the head before this. Suddenly some things make more sense. Double personality is an interesting turn, but it's really strange that you go and call the alter ego like his BFF/bro/boyfriend. Awwwwwkward. I don't know much about the time period, but I'm sure history makes no fucking sense if Hephaestion was Alexander.

iii. Vinland Saga: You know, during months I was bored out of my mind with Kurt Cobain and wondering if we'd ever see or hear about the other characters again. Months. Then in the last two chapters, Thorfinn was moe and I was for the first time all looking forward to see more silliness with him and Einar this time. Of course, that means NOW we go somewhere else. Of course.

...Holy shit, Canute. I didn't recognize you there. Haircuts and inability to grow beards do make wonders. Not only you got kinda hotter, but also exponentially batshit crazier. Then again, without Askeladd around someone must inherit the title of Local Magnificent Bastard. Sadly you still lack the charisma to fill the shoes. I still like you in all your insane fail, though.

THORKELL, THE ONLY CONSTANT IN A MANGA WHERE EVERYONE CHANGES OR DIES. THORKELL, A CHARACTERIZATION TOUCHSTONE. PLEASE NEVER EVER CHANGE. *clings* ALSO, GO PUNCH THORFINN'S EMO IN THE BALLS.
