FkinLady said: If all you want from a show is action then you should probably stick to watching Marvel and mediocre shonen. Anything with maturity, nuance, and a story to tell beyond flashy colors and dynamic camera angles is not for you. If you think season 2 is boring, you literally missed the entire point of season 1 and did not understand any of the themes or character development that were set upLinkcarioX said: It's already amazing, it's just that it's not a violence display like S1. That's why season one was good 😅 I was so excited to start season 2 but then....no action. Figured I'd give it a few episodes.....still nothing. Fell off hard for me personally :/ |
| Just drop it, Vinland Saga isn't for you. |
| It always has been good, it's all about the development |
| If you didn't like it so far, you should probably drop it. From Farmland on, the whole story is way slower and takes more time for dialogue and character focused topics. There will be action of course, but S1 is pretty differenf from the rest of the story. It is definitely not a show that will pump you with adrenaline each episode. And thats exactly the reason why I love it. |
AishaBi said: lol you must've been watching a different show. I never said Naruto explores themes that are deeper than Vinland Saga. It's not a competition and it is incredibly subjective.. at least to people who watched Naruto with common sense. It's just crazy to me that people exist that would describe Naruto as "shallow action". Naruto explored themes such as hard work over talent, persistence no matter the adversity. Even redemption which seems to be a big theme of Vinland Saga was also explored in Naruto.... in literally the first serious arc! You can have your opinions on Naruto but saying it's a shallow action because it is shounen has to be up there as one of the most ignorant things I've ever seen on this site. samsince04 said: Mf almost all your favorites are Shounen series. It just looks like you sprinkled Vinland saga and Fruits basket there for balance. Would you describe Naruto as a "shallow action" series or does it not delve into much deeper themes? Kind of an ignorant statement to make tbh but not surprising coming from a Vinland Saga fan. Bruh stfu he's right. Naruto is shallow action.. And it does not even have much deeper themes compared to vinland d saga. Kind of a stupid statement coming from a naruto fan |

Blazzor said: If these are all the anime from your childhood, it makes it even worse. I can't believe there are actual Naruto fans who are glad to call Naruto a "shallow action". You don't stay relevant in the anime business...nay the show business for this long by being a shallow action show. It's crazy how Vinland Saga fans force this narrative in your throat that every seinen series has action as a "side piece". But that's not a topic I care about discussing because I know it obviously isn't true. It's kinda like saying all shounen involves fights, the demographic is way more dynamic than that.samsince04 said: I've been watching anime for 15 +years of course the classics from my childhood are going to be on there lmao. And my statement is spot on, literally everyone is complaining that there's no action and are completely ignoring the themes. This is a seinin anime,action is the side piece to the overall plot.Mf almost all your favorites are Shounen series. It just looks like you sprinkled Vinland saga and Fruits basket there for balance.

| Probably not. The main character has been an emotional, violent, ptsd-ridden, spiritually deprived and humiliated train wreck for the last 13 years of his life. He is so depressed that he doesn't even flinch for a second after some asshole starts cutting up his body for no reason. And he somehow manages to get out of his depression because of a fucking dream. Thorfinn's character development and spiritual growth was obviously something beyond the capability of Yukimura's writing. It simply doesn't get more disappointing than this. |
FkinLady said: Does Vinland Saga Season 2 ever get good? Season 1 was soooo good and I'm halfway through episode 8 of season 2 now and it's just about farmland the whole time so far..... well the violence and war was more the introduction and world building to give everything more meaning. from now on its all slow paced with a lot of dialogue and character development. if you expect something like season 1 I'm sorry to disappoint you. because from now on it's more a post war drama. |
| I myself am halfway through second season and I'll admit with a smidge of shame that I was really turned off by the very shallow allegory of the first two episodes, but then I slept on it a bit and gained appreciation for it. The misunderstanding in question isn't made by the design of the show itself rather my own poor memory and need of a reminder of the particulars of season 1, is something I felt needed to be pointed out. But to bluntly answer your question "Does seaons 2 ever get good?": others have already given you the answer. The adaption of Vinland saga is something I have come to treasure a lot as I watched and keep watching this season. I again need to admit with embarrassment that I found season 1 to be cliched to an extent given the premise and execution, my apprehension toward season 2 as a result. The reason for my change of stance is the consequence of a very honest and "beautiful in its simplicity" turnaround the show made and it is through this tonal shift and narrative expansion that the show vindicated itself in my eyes. Lastly, I have come to enjoy season 1 more now with the benefit of hindsight. |
| No it won't, drop it and just stick with your sword art online. |
 |
| nooo its so so boring !!! wtf season 2 is all about how to farm !! season 1 is way way better !!! |
| shounen fans when they watch an anime without violence and fighting: |

FkinLady said: I mean It's a series about pacifism and how violence only begets more violence so if it just stuck to showing nothing but violence it would really fail at executing it's themes.LinkcarioX said: It's already amazing, it's just that it's not a violence display like S1.

| What you actually want is a neverending Season 1 , with nonstop action. Doesn't make for a good Story....but I get why you would want that^^ This Season isn't for you. |
 |
| If the arc isn't grabbing you now, then you might as well just drop this season as it's not getting any "better". |
FkinLady said: Does Vinland Saga Season 2 ever get good? Season 1 was soooo good and I'm halfway through episode 8 of season 2 now and it's just about farmland the whole time so far..... Naa, Midland Saga will always be mid. Go watch peak anime like Demon Slayer instead. Peak anime like Demon Slayer will make you forget about this mid. |

| Anime onlies be like: |
| To toxic fans: Atleast wait for an anime season to end before you go on tantrum. |
FkinLady said: If you just want action then drop Vinland Saga already. It's not meant for one dimensional anime fans who only watch action like you. Go rewatch Naruto or something and stop spouting nonsenseDoes Vinland Saga Season 2 ever get good? Season 1 was soooo good and I'm halfway through episode 8 of season 2 now and it's just about farmland the whole time so far..... |
 |
| Season 2 is miles better than S1. You just like to see mindless action. You should go watch a regular shonen like Fairy Tail or Nanatsu. It might be more appealing to you. |
| Its good from the day one, Now Its just getting peak,how would have feel for the Farm in the upcoming war if they hadn't showed developed the farm and the characters within it? How will mangaka make you feel for Thorfinn's pacifissm and challange his ideology in the upcomg war if it wasn't explained and expored properly?....Saying is wasn't good means you only likes to watch shows that are on a constant hype, Vinland Saga isn't for you, drop it. |
| I'm someone who enjoys and appreciates all sorts or different anime (see my list). But i gotta be honest that i still can't see what's so goated about Vinland Saga ever since s1. It's a decent show i'll give it that but not even aoty worthy let alone all-time. |
| I think season 2 has pacing problems like, it either goes way too fast or way too slow. As someone who had a hard time watching 1st half of S1, I think S2 is neither better nor worse than that due to it being S1 counterpart in the SoL type of genre. The sudden change in the genre is what's pissing most people off, I guess after this arc Thorfinn realises "True warrior" and such things, then he finally comes back to the battlefield. So ig you can continue to watch it. |
 |
| There will be more action but i doubt the directing will get any better. The pacing of the manga was solid but in the anime they stretched it out for the sake of it. It feels 3 times longer. |
| Let's hope that by the end of this arc all the action junkies drop the series already, we don't need the same stupid complaint for the remaining 2 arcs. |
  |
| interest has pretty much fallen off and many people cannot cite proper evidence to defend this being peak fiction. vinland saga threads are just becoming as bad as spy x family threads where people will not admit that the show sucked, and point fingers at other shows, until after cour 2 is over and nothing happened. they are clearly trying to drag this series longer than it should and a lot of adults are not going to want to sit through it. Season 1 was good since it got a lot done in 24 episodes. Season 2 is the opposite. You don't know how many people are bitch on reddit that the show fell below top 10 on anime like what happened to tensura |

| vinland saga was never meant to be about historical viking war anime,it's just happen the setting is in medieval viking era,so you're going to see wars here n there. |
