SEASON 1 FINALE

Comments

Double upload, sweeet! The priests definition of love is definitely not functional for how most people use it. If love is the greatest affection, but also universal, then it can’t really BE cuz the universe is affection but also hate and indifference.

I love the ending of this first season so much. That final episode is pure chaos and a nonstop ride of increasing tension, all to reveal that this is quite literally just the prologue. This entire season is nothing more than a backstory for Thorfin and Canute. The actual story of Vinland Saga doesn't start until season 2. The rest of the story is nothing like the events of season 1, which are more of a standard (but well-done) action anime with a revenge plot. Everything from here on is a far slower character drama, but you needed this intense first season to show you where this character came from. It's brilliant.

Season 1 is the prologue. Absolutely phenomenal def 10/10 but season 2 is even better in terms of character writing, themes/messages, and overall storytelling

Strongest first season of anime so far for me. Thorfinn definitely viewed Askaladd as a father figure, and I think what really drove that home was when they showed Thorfinn holding him in that same white background they used for the Thors when he died. I believe season 2 gets to the core of what this series is about and I can't wait to watch the gang experience it.

Thanks so much mate! We agree that this first season was an amazing start to the story of Thorfinn and the world of Vinland. Excited to start season 2 with you guys soon!

Demon Slayer definitely needs to be after season 2 of VS! Season 4 just wrapped up with an Internet breaking episode!

Quick thoughts on the priest's take on love, I believe what he is searching for and defines love as would be God's unconditional love. The ability to love both the good and evil, all members of all parties in equal measure. As stated by you guys that nature and the elements do not favor any one group or individual, they do not discriminate. The priest and Canute then come to the conclusion that man doesn't innately have this unconditional aspect of love, we instead have innate conflict and turmoil. We look for our self-interests first, we draw lines between "us" and the "other", we make our own enemies. The love we have for the "us", while beautiful, is often weaponized as a justification for any number of offenses we'd commit to the "other" from minor to major and thus discrimination. An example brought up by the show is the pillaging of the Mercian town. These were civilians, and fellow Christians at that, but Ragnar could not refute Askeladd's claim that this massacre was indeed in the best interest of Canute's safety. As a counterpoint, while Ragnar stands aside unwilling to take action, the priest selflessly puts his life on the line in a futile attempt to warn and potentially save any of the villagers from the attack. I would also call into question Askeladd's act of regicide to be that of the love the priest seeks. Specifically because, as the gang stated, Askeladd would have never spoken against the king had any group other than Wales been targeted. His love is conditional and consequently discrimination against all groups that weren't Wales and Canute. I would argue that Askeladd's closest act to unconditional love would be his final words to Thorfinn, a final genuine attempt to push the boy he scarred in a more positive direction. Askeladd is definitely far from anything resembling a true warrior, but he is an incredibly complex character that commands the audience's attention across all of Season 1 and I am here for it. Long winded comment over lol, love this series and I've enjoyed seeing the gang's reactions and discussions over Season 1. Very excited to see Season 2 with y'all :)
