| IT'S BACK BABYYYYYY LETSSSS FKN GOOO! |
 |
It's only the first episode and it's already so fucking good. I am beside myself with joy. |
| how does mappa still keep the animation quality from wit, wow it looks absolutely gorgeous |
 |
| What a fantastic adaptation of an already incredible manga. Really liked how they expanded on Einar's character. |
| Really good. Really, REALLY, freaking good. |

| I have seen Eren a lot recently. First the protagonist of Mononogatari and now pre-raid Einar. Super strong first episode. Atmosphere is being handled perfectly and OST is doing excellent at elevating every single scene. And the ED is simply fantastic, by the way. |
| My favourite manga. Get ready for Farm simulator, friends |
| Such a beautiful production. I'm so happy the staff got to make more Vinland Saga |
| Duh, Thorfinn became a slave, it was better for him to return to his hometown. We also got to see the backstory of a character that will probably play an important role in the story. The opening was wonderful and I suppose this season is going to focus on Thorfinn and Einar escaping from slavery to freedom. |

| Great start, as expected. But damn Einar is dumb, if he had heard his mom maybe his sister could have survive lol |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it. |
| Vinland Saga is back to save this mediocre season, can't wait for more. The op is aight, first op is still my favorite and I don't think any op can top it. An introduction episode and a phenomenal one, one of the best first episodes I've seen. The visuals, the music, the direction, the characters, the dialogues, the narration, the cinematography... everything is made to be as impactful as possible, such an insane feeling I had in just 20 minutes. Vinland Saga just never miss. |
| the adaptation of the manga is always perfect by Mappa Ppl may have different opinion on this season because there would be less action But believe me that this Season is going to be better than the first Season the story and plot would progress perfectly and u would see great character development of certain characters especially thorfinn ,he has got one of the best development out there |

| This is about to be a treat |
Koustubh said: Thank you for answering :)Hop981 said: Quick question, is the farm that Einar ended up at the end of the episode, the same farm he used to live in? Or it's a different one? If I understand correctly, it's a different farm in a totally different place far away from his home in Northen England. Although, it shares a resemblance to his farm back at home. |

| Absolute masterpiece of an episode. The animation is just as good, if not even better than season 1 and the direction was amazing. The OP and ED are literally perfect. I love how prominent the OST was in the episode. |
| It's great to have Vinland Saga back on our screens for a well deserved second season and it was well worth the wait! =) It's also a reminder in how brutal daily life was way back then. Einar was very happy with his sister and mother living in Northern England, but as with many places during that century, their village was destroyed by the invading Danish army and as a result of their attempted escaped, his mother and sister died and he was taken away as a slave. Einar tried to get away from it all, but his attempts failed and he had no choice but to resigned himself to his new life, as much as he hated the prospect of it. He was eventually bought by Ketil and was taken to his very large and nice looking farmland. Later on, Einar was introduced to a familiar face from the first season, Thorfinn, who was looking far worse for wear compared to how we saw him from before. Despite a studio change from Wit to MAPPA, it does look like the main staff from the first season are still present, so the visuals and animation look the same, which is a good thing. Both OP and ED were somber and rather powerful, which I like. Overall, this was a great start and I look forward to seeing if this second season can live up to the increasing hype of this arc in particular. I bet that it will, going by early impressions. =P |
| HOLY SHIT. The animation, soundtrack...everything was fantastic. Poor Einar had to see his family get killed before his eyes. Thorfinn looks like he has no motivation to live. Great and an interesting start to the new season. |
 |
| Vinland Saga is back this year!!!! Einar had a terrible life. But he's in good hands now. And Thorfinn!!! |

What a great episode. It was worth waiting for it for more than three years. And I couldn't have been happier that it's back. I couldn't hold my tears tho. I freakin love this manga and the fantastic anime adaptation :") The first episode felt like a mini movie and the soundtrack / visuals were amazing. Can't wait till the next week. |
| I am sleepy |
| Holy shit, starting off with a bang. I loved every second of this episode. Easily gonna be the best show of this season |
| What a way to start this masterpiece I can't believe how good this gonna be. |
| So fucking great holy shit. Seeing my boy Einar, Leif looking for Thorfinn, and the beautiful music... I was already starting to tear up and get emotional and the great shit hasn't come close to happening yet! |
| The transition to MAPPA is flawless, this feels no different from WIT(except better production). The Norse at the start was so unexpected, so much promise already! |
| Epic. Vinland Saga is epic. |
