English translation @AttackOnFans https://t.co/afWeEwxysx Yukimura mentioned that the starting point of Vinland Saga was understanding whether or not humanity can abandon a concept like violence when it wasn't a crime to kill back in the day. This was his reason for choosing the Vikings as well. He intended to explore violence from the lens of a pre-Christian culture wherein violence was nothing out of the ordinary. eren gallery@galleryerenBeautiful2814390Beautiful https://t.co/g7rmf9057C The Attack on Titan mangaka spoke about his series and mentioned how it was sometimes hard for him to control Eren. Yukimura agreed with Isayama and stated that sometimes the characters have a will of their own. Moments like these force the mangakas to almost fight against the very characters to tell their story. kashin kozy soulo arc ㄣ⃒@killkozythorfinn from vinland saga arguably has some of the best character development in all of fiction.13828thorfinn from vinland saga arguably has some of the best character development in all of fiction. https://t.co/Kny1DN9DS0 Isayama also gave his opinions on his favorite character in Vinland Saga. The Attack on Titan mangaka said that he likes Thorfinn and added that he usually doesn't like a main character much. Thorfinn progressed in the series while constantly being divided between creation and destruction. Thorfinn's humane aspect makes this character fascinating, according to Isayama. Yukimura's take on the manga was interesting as he believed the Vinland Saga anime was better than the manga. He urged the anime community to watch the anime before reading the manga. According to the mangaka, the director and screenwriter had a better understanding of the series than the creator himself, and this helped in a few areas where the pace was a bit of an issue. The two mangakas went on to reveal some of the works that they liked. Yukimura was a big fan of My Dress-Up Darling, while Isayama liked Stranger Things. Isayama also stated his interest in watching videos where fans react to popular clips from Attack on Titan. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Sayati Das × Feedback Thank You!
