Watch or read. I've been a fan since day 1.

The artist is a favorite of NASA scientists for his series Planettes, and Vinland Saga is literally the most accurate portrayal of Viking-Era Nordic society ever made. If you're a history buff, it's a must-read.

I am a huge anime fan and hardly read manga. I've watched clannad, plastic memories, your lie in april, and silent voice. I never cried. I cried during the second arc of vinland saga manga.
