If only Thors could see the man Thorfinn had become. Pure goosebumps, man.

Canute's speech was metal too but commanding waves to stop looked chuunibyou af out of context lmao

I just wanted to say that this might be the best episode of anime that I've watched in my life.

I hate this episode. I hate it so much. This kind of garbage only works cause Thorfinn is the main character with superhuman strength and endurance. A Jomsviking that can't even throw a 100 punches?????!!!!! WTF. How is Thorfinn still able to talk after all that? A lot of writers think that any wound not make it a sharp object isn't a serious wound. In reality, a single punch is often more than enough to settle any fight. This magical "trick" Thorfinn has to turn his head a little doesn't work when the soldier follows through and neck can't turn anymore. This is just glorified pandering fantasy. Any real human being would be dead right now. Any. It doesn't matter how big or small. I can't believe the author decided to at this important moment to turn this into a shounen. "I can't hit you cause I just met you. I don't hate you" What?! He just hit you! What do you mean you have no reason to hit him back?! Is the author really telling everyone to live like a victim and when someone hits you, just take it silently. Thanks dude. That's exactly what I'll tell every woman that gets beaten by her husband. "Just take it. You have no reason to hate him." 0/5 first half. The second half was pretty good.

@phantom346 I actually mostly agree, but it could have worked out if, instead of taking direct hits, Thorfinn had just kept dodging his punches until he was too exhausted to throw real punches, and then took the rest by blocking or parrying them with his hands. I wasn't a fan of the first half of this episode, and the whole "I have no enemies thing" left me cold, but the discussion between Canute and Thorfinn was pretty interesting.
