Sweyn may have sired Canute, but Ragnar was always more of a father to him. A lot of aspects about Ragnar's prior protests and actions make a lot more sense when you consider them in the context of how he was aware of this plot by King Sweyn.

Yeah, the only problem with Ragnar was that he helped make Canute weak. To survive in the royal world of the time you had to be able to grow stronger with the schemes and killing around you. It needed to become second nature and that is clearly not how Canute is.

Askeladd (in case nobody has told you yet, its pronounced Ash-eh-lad) is one of the most feels twisting characters i've personally come across. You can't help but have some level of dislike for him due to his actions, because they are brutal and often outwardly cruel, but yet all of them have some proper reasoning behind them. So you're more understanding than most for the things he does, not to mention you can't help but respect him, he's smart, witty, sometimes humorous and generally not afraid to step up and get his hands dirty. He doesn't cower or hide and hes an interesting character, but also he's an asshole. Its very conflicting xD

THE GOOSH!

Yea, the gang gave me the pronunciation early on, but my more simple, kinda silly pronunciation is simply another memory crutch... And YES! I've never had an anime with this many starkly conflicting emotions for me regarding characters! A product of really good writing.

There's another reason that Sweyn would've been angry about Canute's cooking other than it being beneath his social station. Cooking at the time was seen as women's work, masculinity was a very big deal among Vikings. If a woman accused you of "not being a man" you were honour-bond to prove her wrong. Even if it meant starting a family feud. If a man called you unmanly you were obligated to duel him. Homosexuality while more accepted than it was among Christians, came with certain conditions. You couldn't be the one taking in the relationship and you had to make sure that you left behind children to inherit your lands.

Askeladd really is a complex character. It's difficult to root for him, but there's something about him that, as you get to know him more and more, also makes it difficult to root against him. As another reviewer said, his decisions, while often brutal, are always done for a reason. He's a realist and pragmatic to a fault, and he doesn't make such decisions to indulge himself; he's not a sadist, even though it might appear that way at times. This episode proved him right, if not morally then at least pragmatically, as the girl that survived the massacre went and informed Thorkell where Askeladd's group was. Sadly, the story does often prove him right, which is meant to showcase both his intelligence and wisdom, as well as the brutality of the times these characters lived in. It gives this impression that he's, in part, a product of his time and experiences, as he had no choice but to make such choices if he wanted his group to survive. I say "in part" because Askeladd is way too intelligent to simply 'go with the flow' without noticing the flaws and shortcomings of the world and people around him. We can see this in the fact that, while he seems to have some Viking-like tendencies, it's also easy to notice how different from most of them he is. It'll be expanded upon in later episodes (which you might've already seen at this point), but it all goes to show just how much thought was put into him as a character.

It sucks that they didn't kill Ragnar in a proper fight. They pretty much backstabbed him with a trap under the snow rather than engaging him head-on.
