Summary

A manga based on a historical anime, The Vinland Sagais reportedly nearing completion. Manga artist Makoto Yukimura took to his X page (formerly Twitter) to share information about the future of the manga and how hard it is to work on it and come to a conclusion. The canon ending of the manga before the conclusion of the anime is also a good sign for the future of the anime, which will be able to continue following the action of the manga.

In just a few hours after its publication, the post received more than 20,000 views and almost 500 likes, indicating that fans are actively interested in the information. End to The Vinland Saga may be just around the corner.

The end The Vinland Saga

A task to be completed

As translated by sandman_AP, Makoto Yukimura wrote,

Vinland Saga serialization is nearing completion. While you might think I'm complaining, especially since I took a break this month, completing the story is an incredibly difficult task.

Come to think of it, I've only drawn one final chapter before, so this will be my second time with the Vinland Saga. I really admire mangakas who have successfully completed long running series and that fact alone is enough for me to hold them in high regard.

My goal is to create an ending that makes every reader think, “I'm glad I read this,” although I realize that it's impossible to create an ending that will appeal to everyone. After all, everyone has their own preferences. However, I will do my best to carefully review and work on an ending that fits this story.

From the words of Yukimura himself, it seems that reaching the end The Vinland Saga was definitely a problem. That's not surprising given how popular anime – and thus manga – have become in recent years. With so many fans waiting to see what happens at the end of the story, Yukimura is undeniably compelled to write a conclusion that will satisfy as many people as possible. Fortunately, he seems to recognize that no matter what he does, there will always be those who are unhappy.

It is important to note that Yukimura does not provide any time frame in his post. The Vinland Saga may be coming to an end, but that probably means he's entering the final arc, not the final chapter. There are likely many more chapters to come as the story ties up all the loose ends and finds a conclusion that, as Yukimura said, “fits the story.” While there is more The Vinland Saga will come, the end is in sight.

The Vinland Saga For now

An Epic Journey is about epic journeys

The Vinland Saga was first published by Makoto Yukimura in 2005, making the series nearly twenty years old. Understanding this context makes it all the more impressive that the long-running manga is finally coming to an end. It also makes Yukimura's difficulty in writing a proper ending more understandable given that he has spent the last twenty years on the project. There are currently 28 volumes in the manga series. The Vinland Saga was also adapted into an anime that ran from 2019-2023.

The Vinland Saga is a historical story that follows the journey of Thorfinn, a Viking inspired by King Olaf Trygvason of Norway. The story begins in 1013 AD and follows Thorfinn on an incredible journey to find the utopia of Vinland, where everyone can live in peace – even as war burns the world around him. At the same time, the story also tells of the rise to power of King Cnut, who is the exact opposite of what Thorfinn is doing.

When many manga become anime before the manga is completed, two possible things happen. Either the manga is under pressure to keep up with the anime's release, which could lead to added stress or a drop in quality, or the anime is bypassing the manga and has to make its own ending. With manga for The Vinland Saga having reached the end, any subsequent seasons of the anime will not risk what happens. The characters can have the ending they want and the anime can reflect the same.
