Ah fuck.
The manga art makes the characters look too mongoloid for Nordics and the way the characters behave sometimes is ahistorical, which was my major gripe with Kangdumb Cum: Empty Deliveries . Not to mention that there are some tired shounen tropes that are a little annoying, so naturally I've been very slow to read it.

I can imagine this is the issue. I started reading the manga (and having a blast) during these past months, so Farmland Saga doesn't feel like a slow painful crawl after all that kickass action and moments. I find it entertaining, with nice character development.

I would love it if they always reminded you that all that mindless violence and harrowing moments are just in their imaginations, and during the end of the episode they show them playing harmlessly at the playground. The airplanes are lolis doing plane arms and plane sounds.

It was necessary for character development but it felt like a slog if you were reading it at the time since it's a monthly series. It was comparable to Berserk and the boat voyage in that regard.

I never got the feeling that it was going for that. It's about as realistic as many samurai manga, just in a western setting, or some stuff that you might read in norse hero tales. For example:
>It's kind of retarded to think is humanely possible to swim that much in a freezing sea and not die from hypothermia shortly after.
I'm pretty sure Beowulf did that and he beat up some sea monsters while doing so.

They will re-air everything and add an episode each week. The final week will be a marathon of all episodes up to the second-to-last and then they show a re-cap movie before airing the last one. Really though, I assume they just air one ep per week from now on.

If you're looking for realistic looking humans, of any race, you shouldn't read manga. I don't know if you noticed but they all look like bug eyed monstrosities. In other words: pull your head out of your ass.
The entire theme of the series is the futility of violence and how vengeance perpetuates itself to ruin everything. The farm arc fits perfectly into that theme and is great to read. Same thing can be said for Vagabond.
Mods are fags.

Everyone can play a game with all men the same way they can play a game with all women? The term makes no sense to me. Girls loved Yuu Yuu Hakusho because it was full of men with brotherly themes of loyalty and friendship.

Getting real tired of having to say this, but nothing these people do has to make sense or be useful in actually achieving something. All it is is showing that they're hip to the Party's ideology. Though in this case the goal is obviously historical revisionism, just constantly broadcasting that you have the right beliefs is usually enough justification for them. These people don't want anything more than just to exert power over others while feeling good about themselves for being the brave, noble crusaders of a righteous but completely nebulous goal.

Not to go too far off topic but at least they point out that it is historically inacurate and that they inserted it. And it's from a series that was historically inacurate from the very start, assuming it's Asscred.
Unlike that BBC "life in roman britain" for example, which just lies about history.

More like adolescent but that can't be right at all. I think the timeskip should happen after next episode and while I don't think he had many lines at the start he wasn't a silent protag either.
Maybe they plan to switch some parts of the story around and we'll get more Thors flashbacks?

Leif Erikson was a good idea to mix non-fiction elements with fiction. If only they would implement european metal for the intro, or dungeon synth for some scenes.
