Makoto Yukimura, the author of Vinland Saga, tweeted that he felt embarrassed as a professional for missing the deadline to complete the latest chapter of the manga.

Yukimura was apologizing to fans and readers of the manga on twitter when he said this.

“I’m sorry to everyone who enjoys Vinland Saga. The latest episode scheduled to be announced today has been postponed. My work didn’t meet the deadline. I feel embarrassed as a professional,” the author tweeted.

Yukimara ended his tweet by saying that in future he will “definitely work to meet the deadline”.

A lot of fans replied to Yukimura’s tweet asking him not to be embarrassed. Instead they showed him support and suggested that he take as his own time for releasing the next chapter as they did not mind waiting.

No, don't feel embarrassed! Being a mangaka is a lot of work and you are also a father and husband so it's understandable! Take your time working on the next chapter. We can wait so please don't stress too much and continue doing what best you do 🥺

Don't feel embarrassed Sir, life happens, we are all human after all and we understand mangakas have a personal life outside of their profession. I'll rather wait for the chapter than you get sick over the stress of meeting deadlines, it's all good

Please don't worry sensei, we understand. It's nothing to be embarassed about, it's only natural that ocassionally meeting a deadline turns out to be impossible. We know how passionate and dedicated you are, so please take care of yourself.
