I'd argue s1 Askeladd is the main character

CHIEF

My soldiers, LETS F'N GOOOOO!!

M2GZ

honestly facts Askeladds more of a main character in s1 than Thorfinn, only until s2 does he really feel like the MC.

Abigail Jerry

This finale… had me in shambles! Askeladd is a REAL one. Only VS can make someone so brutal into a character we all mad respect by the end of it 🤌🏾🔥 onto season 2222

icynub

Just wanted to point out somethings 1. Canute and thorffin are the main characters of the show 2. Vinland is actually America 3. Askeladd was a father figure for thorfinn>>the writer said

Andy

Don't worry boys, I too was worried of the animation studio change but MAPPA did Vinland Saga S2 justice! I believe a lot of important people that worked on the first season, worked on the 2nd season as well. So characters don't look jarringly different & off putting like how it was from the transition of S3 to S4 of AOT. I'm a Day 1 WIT STUDIO PP rider myself, but i gotta say, MAPPA did just as good of a job as WIT STUDIO for Vinland Saga :) IMO

bondbond53

Don't worry guys MAPPA did an amazing job with Vinland. The team behind the show just moved to MAPPA that's why you'll see the same motorbike intro in the second season

James

Askeladd killed his father Askeladd killed Thorfinn's father Askeladd killed Canute's father Askeladd died as a father figure to Thorfinn

nans

the same team that worked on s1 of Vinland works on s2 even tho they switched studios so it’s not that jarring of a transition tbh. I thought the switch was fine it’s still really beautiful and there’s no random cgi lmao

szeth

MY OPINION ON S2: Ik this is a hot take and I just want to say we can disagree it is only my opinion, but the first half of s2 I was 100% with it and was confused by people not liking it even though the pacing slows down compared to s1, but the second half so far has been kind of a let down. Every episode I feel like something is about to happen and then it gets pushed back an episode and it takes way more time on scenes than it needs to with parts that are anime original that seem like they needed to hit the 24 episode mark when it could easily be done in 22 or so. It just feels way too slow. I do think that I have to be fair in that I picked up the show as s2 started so the difference in pacing was multiplied by having to watch only 20 minutes a week and that if I had waited I would just have thought it was a bit slow but still liked it overall but I will never know

szeth

@nans Yeah but depending on what they meant that could still work cuz Canada is in the Americas

szeth

I think the time jump also helps because they would have changed some anyway

nans

i can see where you are coming from since it is super dialogue focused, i read the manga so the pacing felt vastly different from watching the show weekly and i can see how waiting is brutal. the guys are lucky they are gonna be able to just binge it

kiiturii

@szeth yeah, same thing with aot too honestly, it wasn't that jarring because the people were way grown up so they'd look different anyway

Joie Dianzon 🇵🇭

Askeladd is a true definition of Kingmaker. By killing the former king and giving advantage to Canute by killing him, the power has literally shifted. All throughout the scene, I wanted to get my chessboard and recreate it to see how it would work. When King Sweyn stepped right infront of Askeladd, it was already a checkmate. 😂

A_Daddy Daichi

idk I just feel like we shouldn't be talking about season 2 that far out but just my opinion. think we should wait so they don't have preconceived notions 🤷‍♀️ but I'm liking it a lot. Would say the last episode was the "slowest pace" but I liked it.

kiiturii

this is such a weekly watcher complaint, every show gets this same complaint while it's realeasing. If you can't deal with something being "pushed back" an episode, don't watch weekly

szeth

@A I guess that's fair, u think I should just delete it or just put a warning

A_Daddy Daichi

I mean I think I've seen other comments before expressing opinions on S2 so I think it's fine. I'm still interested to see how they react to it with all our differing opinions they may have read already

Andy

truuuee truuee, but some people in AOT definitely looked jarringly different IMO. Like Hitch, Jean, n PIXIS with that goofy ahh big ahh forehead T o T

Shpitz

I love season 2, more than season 1, but it's not for everyone. I think it's about trying to figure out what kind of future thorfin can have, season one doesn't put an emphasis on it, but he killed hundreds of innocent people. Can someone like that find happiness? Does he deserve it? It's a beautiful story, but it's a far cry for the action of season 1

szeth

@kiiturii That is just not true, I have watched plenty of shows weekly, JJK, AoT s4, Oshi no ko, Hell's Paradise, Spy x Family, Bluelock, Eminence in Shadow, Chainsaw Man, and I could go on. All of those shows I had the feeling of, "oh that was so good can't wait to see what happens next", whereas Vinland Saga the first half was the same feeling, but the second half it changed to, "what did I just watch did anything really happen" Yes stuff happened ofc but to me it was things that weren't of much relevance. We can disagree and again it is just an opinion, but it definitely is not just because I can't deal with something being "pushed back". I didn't bring that up to be the only reason why I feel that way but to just admit any possible bias I could think of. It definitely isn't the only reason

A_Daddy Daichi

@szeth also to be very honest, I did like VS on my first watch but I would have put it at probably a 7/10. After rewatching on my own and with other reactors (like the goat FilmBuff 🤴) it immediately became an 11/10 for me so I think rewatching when its all out again later will make the experience much better because no waiting.

szeth

@A yeah I agree, even though I had this opinion and could see them thinking something similar from how much they like the action in s1 I hope they end up liking it, wouldn't ever wish for anyone to dislike a show

nans

I honestly still like s2 better than s1. I think it’s all just preference since we all have such different takes and I think that’s what’s super interesting to see how the guys react

The RZA

S2 is very different but stick with it. i describe s1 as a descent for mc and s2 as redemption arc.

bondbond53

Remember guys comparison is the killer of enjoyment

kingkoopa98

So fun watching you guys react to these episodes. Season 2 has been very different so far so I can't wait to see how you react to that.

szeth

@A oh that's fair, I guess we will see if it changes when they watch lol, and will have to check FilmBuff for sure, never heard of him

Hesham Mohamed

this ep was so goated like i felt like i was watching it for the first time again just now

Zah

Mappa is the goat don't worry lol Wit is good but mappa is a different level.

A_Daddy Daichi

@szeth Oh wow really! He’s amazing! He’s a mastermind at analyzing and picking up on small details many miss. Great at predicting and just taking a more I’d say, philosophical view point on shows. 1000% check him out

Abigail Jerry

Something else to know. The title of the episode is ‘End of the Prologue”…. Season 1 is JUST the Prologue… Season 2 begins the plot that you were mentioning! Believe me when I say this… stick with season 2. Appreciate everything you will see and watch! It’s pure genius. You’ll see how season 2 is On Par with season 1. 🔥

szeth

@A Yeah the only reaction channels I have seen are this one, YaBoyRoshi, and Badd Medicine and the only reason for those are because they popped up in my recommended so I haven't actually dived into the reaction category of youtube much but I guess I need to more lol

jul ☽

Askeladd turned Thorfinn and Canute into goats and killed both their dads and killed his dad in the process of becoming a goat himself! Such crazy parallels Also Thorfinn losing another father figure.. pain.

Q3rf Neym

Witts better but I’m pretty sure a majority of the people who worked on S1 worked on S2 too so the two seasons look and feel very similar. It’s not a drastic change like AoT S1-3 to S4.

Zah

I feel you, but I disagree, I like the feel of Mappa more, it feels more realistic and fitts better with darker shows

Frizen

S2 is Mappa in name only, its the same team from season 1.

James

Askeladd killing King Sweyn was a decision made at that moment since he was forced to make his move, but given enough time, I think Askeladd could have calculated a plan so that no one but the king had to die.

Ale

Ok, let's cry again :')

Alan

It is lowkey farm simulator on the next season for a while but all the build up just makes it all worth it towards the end. Vinland saga has such a unique vibe it’s unlike any anime I’ve ever seen it’s hard to put it into words other than what you guys said, “real”. Like it’s the type of real where you can meet these characters during the first season and then they come back in season 2 three years later and it’s like seeing an old friend from high school. You recognize them but certain things are different than the image you had of them in your head, kindof how they change animation studios. It’s just such a unique feel that no other anime has done except maybe AOT. But for AOT the fact that it has the fictional stuff with the titans it just doesn’t have the same feel as V.S. I love AOT more but V.S has a very unique feel to it. Thank you for attending my Ted talk

adam

askeladd will always be one of the GOAT of vs, such an inspiration to many other characters

ssj4rit

Leif really has to keep an eye on Thorfinn, he lost him twice lmao

Ben Martineau

As I’ve been watching season 2 my brain has built in a Carter reaction cam whenever things get bloody lol. I can hear him shouting and turning away from the camera. Can’t wait for season 2! Already cemented as one of the greatest stories imo.

Bibi

I loved season 1 and gave it a 9.3 out of 10 but I think season 2 so far is 10 out 10. If ending of season 2 is done right it might be the reason Vinland Saga will make it to my top 5 animes of all time for me! I love character driven plots and the character's inner battles/flaws/strengths that create their personalities/motives. Therefore, season 2 might not be for everyone, it just depends on what people prefer. Super curious about yalls reaction to season 2 and how you guys will perceive it! Also, a well known AOT rector named filmbuff made me love season 2 of vinland saga even more than I already do because he analyzes and highlights a lot things I missed while watching it the first time.

Ale

Mappa is doing amazing with season 2, Shohei Yabuta is still the director and some other people in the crew are the same as season 1. Maaaan I love Vinland Saga, it's easily one of my favorite anime-manga ever. Season 2 is so good that I couldn't wait and read the whole manga and I can say that it gets better and better. The manga is still ongoing but it's on the final arc (tho who knows how long the arc will be xd) at least that's what Yukimura (the author) said.

Dio

Cannon don't worry, the transition to Mappa isn't as jarring as it was with AOT. Also, I don't think they've used CGI at all, or not that I could tell unlike with AOT. Season 2 is fr goated, starts off slow though

Meave

I prefer wit for Vinland saga, but I prefer mappa for aot Mappa aot art style is similar and has a darker tone like manga I like the cinematography

A_Daddy Daichi

Ugh this finale is just everything. I’m so excited for you guys to get to my favorite op and ed in S2 P1 😭😭😭

A_Daddy Daichi

Tbh at first I preferred Wit but the more I watch, Mappa just hits better

ssj4rit

I mean both studios are good but I can’t see anything beating aot s1 animation. And the cgi titans, while decent, are still a downgrade. I just don’t get why fans bullied the animators though, crazy.

Kim555

I'm glad I decided to watch this series with you. I feel like if I watched it by myself I wouldn't hold for so long but it's so much better with you

Matthew Hunt Davies

As a Welsh man myself, couldn't be more happy with a character like Askeladd

Cation

Damn miss him so much, the pride of Wales!! Really loved that he wouldn't back down when it meant protecting his country.

Cole Weaver

Crazy part is that Askeladd literally became the hero Artorius by saving Wales in the the last moments of his life.

Cole Weaver

Also, lol true weebs, arguing over two different animation studios at the end (shoutout to both Wit and Mappa, legends in their own rights)

CG

Askeladd the dad slayer

Rick Turpentine

Considering you don't know or remember jack shit the first few years of your life Thorfinn knew Askeladd longer than he did Thors. Probably learned more from him too.

Izaya

King Sweyn's face was hidden so it would generate impact whenever Askeladd saw his face. Askellad's special ability to judge a character by the look on his face was being kinda teased whenever they hid the King's face from the audience. The first time we see his face is when Askeladd does too.

AYAYAJUICER

Mappa is definitely the best anime studio out there because the way they adapt is just so good. They just know what to do

Chrisiyyi

didnt mappa take the animators from witt

Izaya

Dont worry, Mappa wont fuck up like they did with AOT. There is not gonna have crazy CGI either. As seaosn2 doesn't have a lot of fast paced motion to animate they didn't need to throw CGI to speed things up. VInland seaon 2 is my favorite MAPPA production, actually its the ONLY mappa production that i like. I dont like anything they put out but Vinland 2 was actually good. They tried to retain Wit's style the most possible. And more importantly there isn't that ugly CGI models of the titans in AOT every 5 minutes

lola

Don’t worry about the animation… they actually have done an amazing job at keeping the integrity and style of the show. The colors have been insane. You guys will love it!! Also, S2 is giving GOT dialogue and character development. It’s very slow paced but that doesn’t mean it’s boring. There are fights though just not as much as S1. All in all S2 has been just as good as S1 but for VERY different reasons. Idk it’s fucking beautiful.

Astro Sherlock

the studio just changed, the guys who animated them are the same

MaraReaper

Season 2 is up next! Hype

Toff

this has been such a journey I'm so freaking hyped for these 2

Alex Michael Christensen

yeah, as other people have said, vinland saga season 2 is probably mappas prettiest anime they've ever done. They do just as good, if not better honestly with the animation. There is no CG, and the animation is flawless and smooth.

Huxley Bennett

The same people do season 2, they just worked under mappa rather than wit

nans

Omg both the ops for s2 are sooooooo good especially the full versions!!

HannahBanana

Season 2 actually looks pretty good. Most of the animation team from season 1 transferred over to season 2.

Mia Malvik

When Mappa is on their A game I think they do a better job than Wit but unfortunately the quality of Mappa's animation is up and down like an actual roller coaster. Some scenes look incredible in season 2, and then some of it looks absolutely buns to the point where it negatively affects the viewing experience and I wish I was reading the manga instead. I miss Wit for Vinland even though Mappa is overall my fav studio. Apologies for the brutal honesty lol. Alsooo soundtrack appreciation for Somewhere Else, Intertwined and Troll. Extremely underrated I feel

celery

the soundtracks of both aot and vinland r some of my favourites ever

Mia Malvik

Never said it didn't 🤷‍♀️ I prefer Wit's adaption and it's just a personal preference. The flaws in S1 didn't take away from the viewing experience for me

SeCo D. Raw

don't know if someone mentioned it already but as far as I know, the last weird part was a montage of thorfinn growing up and traveling

Michael Corleone

It's sneak peeks of characters that are in season 2 and will be in season 3, Thorfinn isn't shown at all.

AYAYAJUICER

Have you seen wit CGI? The main reason they shifted to mappa is because how terrible wit CGI was. Yall hopping on hate hivemind.

James

Btw, I believe this is the latest interview (March 30th) with the creator of Vinland Saga, Makoto Yukimura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8eKBtO5tUo. In the interview, he talks about becoming a manga artist, the relationship between Askeladd and Thorfinn, etc. There are no spoilers beyond the season 1 story (War arc) other than Yukimura briefly talking about a character from season 2. There's also a funny part in the interview where the interviewer starts talking about his social media presence on Twitter, and apparently, Yukimura didn't know that GOAT stands for "Greatest Of All Time," and he didn't understand why people were sending him pictures of goats on Twitter.

CHIEF

Woah hang on I agree with Huxley but Wit was way better in my opinion. Mappa was fine and is great in most of its shows but acting like it was better is a bit much. It didn't ruin the show and I'm not gonna cry about it, but critiquing the show, Wit's animation is just better, you can make valid excuses for why that is but let's not go crazy here

ssj4rit

Imo WIT s1 was peak. Even WIT couldn’t really match that quality fully in 2 and 3, only in short spurts (Levi vs Kenny, Levi vs beast, etc). CGI colossal in s2/s3 was atrocious. MAPPA s4p1 was a step down, but still good. S4p2 saw improvement with the cgi. S4p3p1 (lmao) was actually really close to peak WIT. I’m excited for s4p3p2. Also say what you will but MAPPA CGI colossal clears WIT CGI colossal.

obito6ix

dont worry, i think mappa did even better with the art and directing in season 2 (WIT had better cuts but there is barely any in s2)

Frank Francis

I started season 2 before you guys started it and while the style is a little bit different, I really like what they did in the first 3 episodes visually

LovetheDove

Ahhhhh can't wait to rewatch S2 with yall

pyx

I went ahead and watched the whole season after the first ep react and was waiting for you guys to get to this part ever since. That reaction to askeladd doing the absolute unexpected was the best 🔥🔥🔥.

Audreyldo

Don’t worry s2 with mappa is amazing and you’ll love it i’m sure :)

Bernie Luke Nang'ayo

Midland saga arc coming up. Basically Thorfinn is a walmart employee and a pacifist

vinny cucinello

Why does it get so long for having new episodes of VS???:-/

lola

Alright when are y’all starting season 2????? I need to see the reactions 😭

L.C.

Vinland saga shits on AOT

Lukeasbot

Not even close. Even the best Vinland Saga characters don't reach top 5 in AoT.

Riya

Askeladd gives me Itachi vibes (if u know u know). What a goat...

Thiivi

Don't listen to anyone who says season 2 is boring. You guys definitely seem to appreciate deep story and character writing, so I think you'll enjoy it like most people do. Also, I'm pretty sure almost the entire animation team that did this season went to MAPPA to do season 2

A L

Canute's voice is Flochs Voice. You can never unhear it now thank me later.

Brian Estepa

how does it feel to have zero emotional intelligence and the attention span of a 13 year old?

Ghedo

can anyone help me with the password? finale doesnt work for me

Sasha

I just watched this reaction again because this is the best an episode can be.
