@ogking31 so what lol? Thorfinn just came to talk to canute as a messenger, he showed no intention to fight and like I said a fucking billion times by now, vikings never back down from a fight, it goes against their ideology. Yeah keep on defending this punching bag shit, I'm done with you

@Sagenaker11 

Of course he didn't he didn't want to resort to violence... 
And yes Vikings don't back down to a fight, but I hope u realize your dumb proposal would lead to: Other vikings stepping up to help Drott. Why? they are the guards of Canute and won't let him see him no matter what. 

So telling thorfinn to use violence in one man is literally OUT OF character AND it makes no sense.

You can't name that in vinland saga, because they ACT human.

The characters in Vinland Saga are basically a one-man army, the very 1st episode of S1 has super-powered characters that can fight an army by themselves and survive, because they "ACT human" my ass.

Does Steins;Gate has inconsistency and plot holes? yes it does, it's normal for an anime to have plot holes and this obviously include time-traveling stories but who fucking cares? you see, as a Steins;Gate fan, I recognize the issues of that anime but I still love that anime and it's the best thing I've watched.

You on the other hand are a Vinland Saga brown noser that thinks this anime is perfect and it's the 2nd coming of Jesus.

There's a difference between exaggeration AND actual having super powers. When I say they act as a human, I mean their progression AND their own logical thinking. Not some power scaling shit that you're trying to provide in which it's an exaggeration because that's the point.

The fact you admitted to such shitty writing about plot holes and inconsistency PROVES how dumb your critique is of vinland when it MAKES no sense, and you're providing ANOTHER narrative that doesn't fit the story. 

Meanwhile Vinland saga, you CAN NEVER see the plot holes in it because it's consistent.

For the record, an anime can have inconsistency and plot holes, does that automatically make the anime bad? no you dumbass, and the same can be said otherwise, an anime may not have inconsistency or plot holes but the anime can still be shit. Is Vinland Saga shit? no, can things be better in it? absolutely, how can it be better? simple, the author can make Thorfinn a fucking interesting character, that's a start but you being the Vinland Saga ass-kisser like you are, you will simply praise every single shit in it.

In short, I don't give a rats ass if Vinland Saga doesn't have plot holes, I only care about my enjoyment with the anime and Steins;Gate was awesome and I enjoyed it. Am I enjoying Vinland Saga? I sure am, but it has some shitty moments in there too and Thorfinn is one of them but what would you know? you are just a brown noser.

@ogking31 do you even know the meaning of fair fight? why the fuck would other Vikings help drott? It's a BET you moron.

I'm sorry dude but vinland saga s2 is huge step down from s1, its 7/ 10 at best and thorfinn is now officially the most boring overrated dumb protagonist out there.

"Farmlandsaga is peak" MY ASS, all we got was a laughable protagonist and fucking CUCKnar compared to charismatic characters like askellad from s1. What's crazy is that I actually defended this show during entire cour 1 thinking there would be payoff

Vinland saga is once again a solid reminder of NEVER TRUST THE FUCKING MANGA READERS

My list is blocked because it's none of your goddamn business.

And who said I don't like Vinland Saga? I praise the things that needs to be praised and I shit on the things I don't like, simple, I have this season rated a 8/10 actually because it's a nice season but that doesn't mean I will praise every single shit in it. I am disliking Thorfinn's bullshitery and at this rate, I may end up giving this season a 7/10 by the end of it.

Olmar really delivered some fire lines, admitting he's scared in front of others, showing understanding that true strength and courage is often not to fight and in the end owning up to his responsibilities saying "it's because I started it all, that I want to end it"

@Sagenaker11 How does negotiating for a one on one duel make any sense with Thorfinn's character though? Thorfinn has been looking for ways to solve things without violence lol, not sure if you have been watching. Its a pretty simple plot.

@fatdoobies33 and I've said a million times in this same thread that it's still better than being a punch bag. You can't be a full on pacifist in viking era. Do you think thors would have done the same thing? He would've definitely done something better than being a punch bag

@Sagenaker11 The man has been hit 1000s of times lol and Thorfinn has a solution just be patient lmao. Who's to say he is just going to let himself be beat relentlessly next episode? Have you read the manga? Thorfinn also acknowledges he can't be a pacifist in the viking era, which is why he is running away to Vinland, free from vikings.

@fatdoobies33 I don't remember thorfinn getting smashed 1000 times continuously and surviving and there's no way he would survive multiple blows from a well built viking considering thorfinn physique.

I mean this is the same show were fanboys take pride in being more "mature" and "realistic" compared to shonen counterparts.

If thorfinn acknowledges that pacifism is not the right choice then why is he acting like a dumb cunt? Thorfinn should be more like thors and at times cunning like askellad, not a pussy pacifist.

And lastly it's a anime, not a fucking philosophy class. The author should send message via sensible action and storytelling, not by deepthroating " violence bad peace goood" Shit by MC every 2 sec when he opens his mouth.

Look vinland saga s2 is not bad by any means, it's just basic shit with boring MC. Fell of hard compared to s1

@Sagenaker11 Like I said, who is to say he is just going to be tanking those blows from this "well built viking"? You are getting upset about the solution to a scene that hasn't even occurred yet, is that not weird? You're sitting here like "it's so unrealistic that he took 100 blows from that guy, he would have brain damage" but it hasn't even happened yet. 

And responding to Thorfinn's acknowledgement that pacifism doesn't work with "whys he acting like a dumb cunt then?" just shows me you missed the entire point of the story, and that you're just being childish. Being upset about a philosophical MC being "basic" while begging for an MC who just fights to solve everything is pretty laughable lol.

Bro that scene with Omar seeing all the injured soldiers and breaking down crying was really powerful and I loved that he made the decision to surrender and took responsibility for everything he did. I really hope everything goes well and he can be a better person in the future.

Now in the next episode Thorfinn has to endure 100 punches to see Canute and we'll finally get to see that scene from the manga everyone keeps talking about.

Disappointing episode,I was excited for conversation with Canute but it feels they are just dragging out. The entire episode is just olmar crying and thorffin getting punched and having an idealistic pacifist monologue. And idk what type of emotions you all are feeling but it's just not getting to me with this season. I felt nothing neither for gardar nor his wife (forgot her name). The peak of the season was thorffins awakening and snakes fight which put thorfins overly idealistic stance to test. Aside from the beautiful art and parallels between thoriffin and Canute this season hasn't been all that. It feels tediously slow at times. I'll still give it a 7 simply because I love vinland and thorffins character development but I'm begging to ask myself a question. Is thorffin becoming a bit too idealistic and naive?
to be fair you’re a AOTard so you wouldn’t know what good writing is
AoT is definition of good writing. Vinland saga author should have taken notes on how to balance slow build up with rewarding high intensity moments which is exactly what AoT did. Vinland Saga is one of my favorite Japanese stories but it doesn't hold a candle to AoT in many aspects. I gave you a valid criticism and all you could do is insult. Isn't one of the main themes of vinalnd "not having enemies" well vinland must be poorly written since you are not applying it's main message in real life šŸ˜‰

It's also funny that this is coming from pedogatari fan and a chainsawmanTard. 2 horribly written shows relying on shock value, literally made for 30 year old incels that never had a romantic relationship in their life. You got a lot of confidence with that horrible taste.

King Canute has claimed victory over Ketil's rag-tag forces, and Arnheid's death hits Einar and Thorfinn hard.

Olmar coming back to find total devastation, and he's feeling overwhelmed to the point that he puked. Even Snake feels the pinch from Thorgil's mother, but so as long as he's still living, he can face Canute's men to no end. The only exception being Olmar, being so high and mighty, only now to face the perils of his consequences, but even as a Norse man, he didn't feel like he's done enough to defend his honour. It's this move that calls him to surrender to King Canute, which Thorgil goes to handle things his way.

Thorfinn running towards Canute's camp to see King Canute, and instead, he gets punched endlessly by Drott thinking that he's not gentle to Thorfinn. Upon Canute listening to his name, he feels no need to entertain him, while Drott handles the beat-down with Einar coming to his aid. Instead, the bet with talking to Canute on the bet of his life with no fewer than 10 hits, he's willing to take 10 times that, not jusyt for Ketil's liberty.

Drott the Bear Killer, x100 on blows vs. Thorfinn, it's an endurance to the death or not.

It's funny how you didn't even understand that it wasn't actual eren saying that rather it was him manipulating armins memories so he can still be the same eren he always knew in his eyes. AoT haters truly can't understand ambiguity and genius of AoT. I don't blame you, not everyone is smart, some people just have to watch simple shows like monster and vinland saga. Good shows tho.

Now this is how you know an anime is great... When you need to get a PhD in AoT Theory just to be able to understand whats going on. Truly head and shoulders above everything else...

If you don't mind me asking. Why do you feel the need to go on another anime's forum just to insult the intelligence of everyone who likes it?
