Most definitley vikings. Hulking monsters with large swords and axes that wore chainmail and pretty much lived to destroy their enemies......isn't looking good for a samurai.

Katana can cut a human in half with one slice O.o

Except when the poor quality of it's steel and thin design hits any other hard object and breaks.

Whuh? Please provide proof that bones are a different kind of hard, and that katanas are made with poor steel plz.

Japan was notorious for having poor iron deposits and very little of it historically. That's one reason why Samurai swords are made the way they are. The swords are not designed to clash metal on metal, for the reason that they would break. Any sword from around the world made of steel would have a better chance of being stronger.

Definitely Samurai. Their sword skills are unbeatable by far.

Samurai wins in the show, but we all know viking wins. Samurais were super hyped up by that anime crap, and tests have proven that a katana nearly shatters when swung against a stationary claymore.
