Anyone who thinks Thorfinn would have killed Floki has absolutely zero reading comprehension.

@EatTheBones Disregard those people, they're children.

I will literally never understand people who want Thorfinn to go back to how he was as a child. Vinland Saga has had such wonderful character development for him, and this was probably the most solid test of his character he will ever experience. And what a way to do it: breaking that sword over his knee was such a great visual.

It was necessary for Thorfinn to spare Floki. Otherwise he would just count as hypocrite and give Hild a reason to get her revenge. Regardless of reason that Floki having planned the murder while Thorfinn simply killed Hild's father without deeper relations.

Hild is still holding back with the condition of Thorfinn having changed for better and resolve things peacefully.

Hell, Baldr is a better leader and a more humane person at his age than Ol' Floker ever was. Went a little predictable considering the well-established personalities, but good nonetheless.

This was so much fucking better than the Berserk chapter today. :3

Good to see that Thorfinn had not succumb back into his old self. Nice chapter as always.

:( I liked child thorfinn better

Floki got off easy.
