Thorfinn didn't just remake himself because he was unhappy with the person he used to be, he was literally forced to because Askeladd's death left him empty with no life purpose or reason for living. You shouldn't compare yourself to Thorfinn, as his story and development is as revolutionary as it gets, bred only from a truly sorrowful & traumatic life. Olmar is actually a far more relatable character who discovers who he is, who he actually wants to be & his raw understanding of courage and honor. I found Olmar's story to almost be more realistic & ordinary but also nearly as compelling as Thorfinn's own journey of self-discovery as Olmar learns simply by watching Thorfinn's bold actions and the suffering that war has on the people around him.

When I first watched Vinland Saga Season 1, I felt very conflicted. As much as I loved the historical setting and Askeladd and the fights and the storytelling in general, I felt like the main character was very unlikeable because he was so one-note. I loved the ending of Season 1 but I still felt conflicted. However, when I finally gave Season 2 a chance everything changed. I found myself ADORING Thorfinn as a character and how much he had changed, and I realized that his changed character only works as a result of him being so one-note in the first Season. I love Season 1 but I ADORE Season 2 and I love how it was willing to take such a big risk. And when Thorfinn said, “I have no enemies,” that hit me so hard. It made me rethink the very concept of having “enemies” and it made me feel like having no enemies, holding no grudges, was the ultimate freedom. I encourage everyone reading this to read the manga once you’ve caught up with Season 2, it just keeps getting better and better!

Just finished Vinland season 2. I actually can’t believe the retards saying it’s bad. It is absolutely amazing. I waited for all of the episodes to come out so I could binge them. If you watch season 1 and then season 2 right after it is the most airtight narrative I’ve ever witnessed. This is one of the most impressive anime I’ve ever seen. I can feel that people aren’t even taking in the deep message this show flawlessly presents. All they care about is “Omg when is thorfinn gonna get angry and look badass again, this season is boring! dropped!” At this point in the story,Thorfinn grows up. He’s outgrown his animosity towards the world. This is a classic case of audience immaturity. Classic weebs doing what they do best. Sitting on their ass living their lives through a character, and when that character actually matures they cannot no longer emulate them due to the maturity they lack themselves.

I'm writing a visual novel that's kinda going in reverse of your take on season 2. It's supposed to show how one who brushes off their past will easily be crushed by it, even someone with power and support and love. The protag is a teen who has experienced a comically large amount of trauma, but after many years of torture and a few of retribution, he kinda swept it under the rug, finding peace, money, riches, and a view of how the types of people he stayed far away from and automatically hated weren't all that bad. That is until a turning point when lose ends break the chain, and the character gets dragged back into that hole of darkness. The ending also has a huge purpose as a moral moving forward for the audience and the protagionst.

So after watching this video, i decided to give vinland saga a shot. Season 1 plot about revenge wasn’t necessarily the first time ive seen about it. But throughout season 1, we saw depth behind the characters were going through with the raids and the politics. For season 2, it did a full 180. From some kid who is filled with anger and rage to kill the man he’s been essentially living with and killing for to then become someone who lost themselves as a person who wants redemption from his sins and becomes a pacifist, it was one of the most emotional journies i have witnessed. I binged season 2 in about 2 days and i cried in total of 10 times. Thorfinn is different compared to the other characters we have seen in naruto, one piece, bleach, dbz, AOT, etc. The anime is definitely up there to be one of the best written stories. I believe this is a great recommendation for people who love philosophical animes where it requires critical thinking and compassion. Thank you charlie for speaking about this anime ❤

Vinland saga s2 is so good because it flips your perspective on s1 so much, and it really drives home it's message by first idolizing the classic viking rampage before forcing you to stare at the devestation that creates. Thorfinns new ideology is so interesting because an entire season was dedicating to setting up his past. Thors had the same ideology, but compared to Thorfinn you kinda brush him off in the first episode as being naive in not killing when threatened, it's when Thorfinns realizes he was right that you do aswell. And having any show flip your perspective in that way is worth gold. I also honestly don't know why people find s2 boring. Yeah there's not a lot of action, but a lot of shit is happening, and if you genuely liked s1 you should see that

I think the change in thorfinn, from being raised as "The son of Askeladd" back to being "The son of Thors" is what makes this season great. I think the main reason it got the hate that it did was because the first season attracted the shounen audience, thinking this was a shounen series, when in all actuality its a seinen. And if you don't want to sit through the complex character arcs of everyone on the farm, I can understand, but as an adult series, it kinda expects you to have a good attention span.

The fact that it's 'only' sold 7 million copies is criminal given some of the garbage out there that sells 10x as much.

Thorfinn didn't just remake himself because he was unhappy with the person he used to be, he was literally forced to because Askeladd's death left him empty with no life purpose or reason for living. You shouldn't compare yourself to Thorfinn, as his story and development is as revolutionary as it gets, bred only from a truly sorrowful & traumatic life. Olmar is actually a far more relatable character who discovers who he is, who he actually wants to be & his raw understanding of courage and honor. I found Olmar's story to almost be more realistic & ordinary but also nearly as compelling as Thorfinn's own journey of self-discovery as Olmar learns simply by watching Thorfinn's bold actions and the suffering that war has on the people around him.
Seeing Thorfinn sort of transform from a revengeful and crude kid to this calm and peaceful man is something I just loved about this anime, truly one of my favorite animes of all time

It kinda falls off hard for my after Baltic Sea War.
When I first watched Vinland Saga Season 1, I felt very conflicted. As much as I loved the historical setting and Askeladd and the fights and the storytelling in general, I felt like the main character was very unlikeable because he was so one-note. I loved the ending of Season 1 but I still felt conflicted. However, when I finally gave Season 2 a chance everything changed. I found myself ADORING Thorfinn as a character and how much he had changed, and I realized that his changed character only works as a result of him being so one-note in the first Season. I love Season 1 but I ADORE Season 2 and I love how it was willing to take such a big risk. And when Thorfinn said, “I have no enemies,” that hit me so hard. It made me rethink the very concept of having “enemies” and it made me feel like having no enemies, holding no grudges, was the ultimate freedom. I encourage everyone reading this to read the manga once you’ve caught up with Season 2, it just keeps getting better and better!
Just finished Vinland season 2. I actually can’t believe the retards saying it’s bad. It is absolutely amazing. I waited for all of the episodes to come out so I could binge them. If you watch season 1 and then season 2 right after it is the most airtight narrative I’ve ever witnessed. This is one of the most impressive anime I’ve ever seen. I can feel that people aren’t even taking in the deep message this show flawlessly presents. All they care about is “Omg when is thorfinn gonna get angry and look badass again, this season is boring! dropped!” At this point in the story,Thorfinn grows up. He’s outgrown his animosity towards the world. This is a classic case of audience immaturity. Classic weebs doing what they do best. Sitting on their ass living their lives through a character, and when that character actually matures they cannot no longer emulate them due to the maturity they lack themselves.

I'm writing a visual novel that's kinda going in reverse of your take on season 2. It's supposed to show how one who brushes off their past will easily be crushed by it, even someone with power and support and love. The protag is a teen who has experienced a comically large amount of trauma, but after many years of torture and a few of retribution, he kinda swept it under the rug, finding peace, money, riches, and a view of how the types of people he stayed far away from and automatically hated weren't all that bad. That is until a turning point when lose ends break the chain, and the character gets dragged back into that hole of darkness. The ending also has a huge purpose as a moral moving forward for the audience and the protagionst.

"A true anime doesn't need action." - Thors
So after watching this video, i decided to give vinland saga a shot. Season 1 plot about revenge wasn’t necessarily the first time ive seen about it. But throughout season 1, we saw depth behind the characters were going through with the raids and the politics. For season 2, it did a full 180. From some kid who is filled with anger and rage to kill the man he’s been essentially living with and killing for to then become someone who lost themselves as a person who wants redemption from his sins and becomes a pacifist, it was one of the most emotional journies i have witnessed. I binged season 2 in about 2 days and i cried in total of 10 times. Thorfinn is different compared to the other characters we have seen in naruto, one piece, bleach, dbz, AOT, etc. The anime is definitely up there to be one of the best written stories. I believe this is a great recommendation for people who love philosophical animes where it requires critical thinking and compassion. Thank you charlie for speaking about this anime ❤
Vinland saga s2 is so good because it flips your perspective on s1 so much, and it really drives home it's message by first idolizing the classic viking rampage before forcing you to stare at the devestation that creates. Thorfinns new ideology is so interesting because an entire season was dedicating to setting up his past. Thors had the same ideology, but compared to Thorfinn you kinda brush him off in the first episode as being naive in not killing when threatened, it's when Thorfinns realizes he was right that you do aswell. And having any show flip your perspective in that way is worth gold. I also honestly don't know why people find s2 boring. Yeah there's not a lot of action, but a lot of shit is happening, and if you genuely liked s1 you should see that

I think the change in thorfinn, from being raised as "The son of Askeladd" back to being "The son of Thors" is what makes this season great. I think the main reason it got the hate that it did was because the first season attracted the shounen audience, thinking this was a shounen series, when in all actuality its a seinen. And if you don't want to sit through the complex character arcs of everyone on the farm, I can understand, but as an adult series, it kinda expects you to have a good attention span.

I was an avid supporter of Vinland Saga from the start and I am glad to hear its getting more recognition, especially after so many people cried about season 2 being "boring". Which is a shame, because its one of the best the industry has to offer.

I devoured the first season and I knew about the change of pace, but I was so surprised by how much tension they were able to build in the story despite that slower tempo. The episodes from beginning to end feature some of the best character writing I have ever seen, the conclusion was simply brilliant and it was the first thing on my to do list every Monday evening for its entire runtime. Masterclass in writing and an absolute masterpiece overall.

When Thors said to Thorfinn you have no enemies that was the line that made me a true vinland saga fan
I think the farmland saga arc was a flop because you definitely required a certain degree of emotional maturity to truly be captivated by the fantastic character development of Thorfinn and company. Action is supposed to be fast-paced and interesting, but S2 was able to make every episode feel like 5 minutes with barely any action. It's a testament to how well written it is.

@@dontask9000 Damn I love Naruto lol. I feel like you had an enormous pool of examples you could have picked from with shows that would have fit your point far better than Naruto. That said I agree with your main point. There are a lot of casual watchers that are in it for the 'Transformers-experience' of good action and little emotional complexity. Which is completely fine, I too like to occasionally shut off my brain and enjoy something simple and easily digestible but what I hate is that these same people then act like the show that simply isn't their type of show is somehow bad or boring for it.

bruhhh i saw this anime cuz you made this video and i didn't regret even one second of vinland saga.
For me, the Farmland Arc in S2 is one of the best arcs in anime/manga, although I can understand why people dropped it after S1. I remember reading it in the manga a few years and being blown away by it and the anime was the same. The fact that it's 'only' sold 7 million copies is criminal given some of the garbage out there that sells 10x as much.

The moment when Thorfin said to Canute that he'll run in order to avoid war with him was one of the most profound moments I've seen in any work of fiction. I almost wonder if there was anyone in history who had a similar story to Thorfinn. (Sorry if you haven't watched it)

@@Urekyui think he means a real person similar to thorfinn in the sense that they turned from a murderous monster who hurts others for their own gain into a pacifist trying to atone for their sins and grow. One of my friends told me about either an african war criminal or dictator who grew sick of the violence he’s caused because of a crucial moment in his life and dedicated his entire life from that point on to atoning for his sins by de-escalating the current conflicts, helping his people, and giving his people the help they need to grow stronger together. I forgot his name though sadly

We also have to talk about Einar, another character that hits one Thorfinn's life, a brother that doesn't share the same blood type, or any connection... How Einar was the first one to forgive the one that killed his family, how he was able to manage the fury and help Thorfinn to be a better person.

Season one and two of Vinland saga gives me the same reaction of aot when it transitioned from 3 to 4. It goes from balls to the walls action, to character driven development and primarily more internal conflict. It's harsh contrasts between seasons within a show that really show how great the story really is.
