sand_fl

you were REALLY CONFIDENT askeladd was not dying so i guess this really surprised you 😂 now you're only 2 episodes behind. well, the third drops tomorrow so i guess 3.

Julien

Yeah, Vinland saga.

Isaac

End of the Prologue

Saifu

OMG FINALLY!!

Friend

yes well this was the prologue of vinland saga, i don't think i've ever seen such a thing in an anime, but this is like the flashback of thorfinn, 24 episodes,absolute masterpiece, and the fun starts now.. .

Melkor

13:36 That’s the moment Askeladd went from calm to wanting to kill him on the spot kind of rage. lol Not often you see that kind of reaction from Askeladd. The king insulted Askeladd on a very deep level considering what his mom was and that Wales is his og home. Askeladd probably stopped caring after that just thinking “this king got to die”. 😝 Maybe not stopped caring but probably wanted to kill the king at nearly any cost and I assume this was before he realized only way to save both was for him to sacrifice himself.

Melkor

Rip Askeladd he chose to save both Wales and Canute by sacrificing his life since he realized it was the only way to save both his home and the best candidate as king. Askeladd was easily the best character in season 1 and so well developed. Definitely one of the best characters out there among a lot of anime’s imo.

Z

Askleadd has to be one of the best written characters in fiction of all time. An absolutely amazing character, but Vinland Saga manages to get better even without him. Truly a brilliant story

@Lexi Browing you're right! i was just watching a reaction to the last of us ep 2 and mixed them up since i watch both vinland and the last of us on mondays

"Death perfects a person" indeed.

Vivasvan Gautam

LUCIUS ARTORIUS CASTUS. The daddy slayer, raiser of orphans, king maker. LEGEND. RIP

coolbeans

I hope they give a few reactions to the outro next episode!

Juan Padilla

It's always fun seeing people get the wrong idea of this show just because they're told it's has vikings and the doubt that people have they'll like askeladd or how milena felt towards it in the first 2 episodes

Loki Marcus

Is Askeladd evil? Yes. Is he a hero? Yes. In his own way he fullfilled the Artorius prophecy. He saved Wales. S tier character.

Addy Cop

He was waiting for artorius as a child, got tired of waiting and went searching for artorius. In his final moments he becomes artorius as he becomes the savior of wales. The writing is so good

Benjamin Yee

Makoto Yukimura is the name of the author

Nathan Elkin

Lol, in shock like I said two episodes ago

Fish Smell Bad

Fun fact: this episode is ranked as the 6th best tv episode of all time on IMDB (used to be 5th but The Last of Us just took 1st place from Breaking Bad lol) Edit: It's back to 5 lol

sand_fl

i can't express how happy i am you're satisfied with askeladd's story. since he was your favourite character i was afraid you would lose some interest on the show. though to be completely honest knowing you from all the reactions i've watched i didn't think you would, but there was still a possibility i guess. i've rewatch that scene and askeladd's speech many times and i always tear up and end up crying. just amazingly executed and the voice actor did a wonderful job (again). many readers don't love the next part of the manga but i actually love it and i believe you will too. can't wait to see your reaction to the next episodes and both the intro and outro. btw, i've seen some people point out that his second name was artorious, after the lengend but no one points out that lucius means light/brightness. so yeah, he ended up being the 'hero' that saved wales from being invaded so in the eyes of thst people he was kind of like the light in the dark. i remember milena mentioning a bunch of episodes ago that she would like that askeladd died thinking wales was condemned even if it wasn't true. i imagine she doesn't feel the same anymore though. also (and lastly) i'm not sure if i understood right. from now on are you just going to react to it once a week or just keep it twice until you catch up?

Isaac

I think it's twice til catch up, so Feb 18th. Even leaves them a week break before AoT!

sand_fl

@Isaac i thought so too, but i think milena said that now it was once a week so i got confused because i wasn't sure if she meant from now or from the moment they catch up. honestly i hope is the latter because i'm really exited for this arc of the manga and the faster they catch up the better. i should go to bed because i have to be up in less than 5 hours but rewatching this have me a headache from crying and my eyes sting... i need to be smarter and watch on the next day during the day but i was really hyped for this one.

Tim Kane

Here's a fun fact. There's a few historical figures that are thought to be the inspiration for King Arthur (Artorius). Askeladd's mother was waiting for the return of one of them who won the battle of Badon hill 5 centuries ago (Ambrosius Aurelianus). However, one of the other candidates was a man named Lucius Artorius Castus (which was Askeladd's real name). While in actual history he was born centuries before this show takes place, its a easter egg to show that Askeladd after losing faith in waiting for Artorius became Artorius himself.

kiwi

guys, did they upload ep 22 discussion? I can't find it

vojeeisgaming

Amazing 1st season and the last episode always hits different from all the other episodes we see askeladd . Thorfinn and Askeladd is such a complicated wierd relationship. Thorfinn has to live with himself with the things his done. Can’t wait for season 2. Love y’all reactions.

Lightstrick

i so much love it when they make predictions and the show they are watching is like, "aight bet" and finese them completely😂😭. Thorfinn has now lost two fathers. its messed up. great reaction guys!!

Orr Malus

He needlessly raped and killed innocent women and children, and even babies. "S tier hero". Lmao.

RepliCant

END OF THE PROLOGUE

Siddharth Gediya

Awesome reaction guys, you made it to the end of The Prologue. This is just the beginning and its going to get better and better :)

Caleb

If you think you’ve already witnessed greatness, just wait

Kara the gamer girl from Mars

Askeladd could’ve told Thorfinn that the person who hired him to kill Thors (Floki the bitch) was standing right there next to him, but he didn’t because he wanted him to “go beyond the place where Thors went”. Such a beautiful gesture from a problematic father figure

Melkor

Ignore Orr he just doesn’t understand the show. And there’s been no sign that Askeladd has been raping woman and babies smh. It’s more likely the opposite he seems to hate unnecessary war crimes.

Rinne

The only thing you forgot to mention in the review is the absolutely gut wrenching voice acting for Thorfin this episode. It's immaculate.

Berserk^

Great reactions to a great first season. Who makes a prologue like this? Kentaro Miura would kindly request you hold his saki.

cosmotron

Orr Malus: ah yes, a completely made up statement about this character will show how morally wrong they are to like this show and that character, and how right I am about the point I made up. (as if you even needed to make up more evil acts for him to have done lol, no one here denies the atrocities he’s actually committed, not even Askeladd himself)

Merlin

"I'm an old man already. There's not much time left for me to work. I just couldn't wait any longer for the true king to return from Avalon." Ep 17, Top 5 characters ever.

Loki Marcus

Orr Malus, totally understand hatred for the character. Like I said, he has done many evil things. But Human beings aren't black and white. It is possible for someone to be a hero in their final moments after living a life of villainy. As a matter of fact I'd say that's one of the most beautiful kind of human beings. Their evil past is what makes their heroic sacrifice so much more meaningful. That's what makes Vinland so wonderful. It shows us the humanity of these evil men.

Rhys Jones

No you are right, you should wait.............................but like? *nudge

kiwi

how do I block someone on patreon. This guy orr malus belongs to youtube comment, you'be been so toxic from the beginning.

Vivasvan Gautam

Orr Malus: Man, what's up with you and your comments? I've seen you quite no of times doing this. Your intent is of trolling. I reckon if someday patreon implements block function, you'd be blocked by creators themselves.

Theo Traumato

love how you just accept the episode title haha

Harfie

ahhh came here to have my heart broken again!! the wound is still fresh
