| Imo Askeladd is one of the best written antagonist The ending was amazing, ig Thorfinn will move on |
 |
| "Thors was such a great character, but now he's dead because of Askeladd! I hate Askeladd, I hope Thorfinn kills him eventually. But wait why is Thorfinn such a boring and flat character? All he wants to do is duel Askeladd. He's so dumb and edgy, why is he even the main character? This show is treating Askeladd as the main character. Wait, now Askeladd is becoming interesting, I don't hate him anymore. Wait what, now he's dead? Come on man... and who killed him, Canute? Canute is so weird man. How did he even change his character so quickly. I don't care for him at all. Just like I don't care for any of these random characters they showed at the end. How is this supposed to be a good ending? It was alright, but people see this as epic; and I don't see that at all. 6/10" -me, first time watching Vinland Saga "f*ckin' masterpiece. 9/10" -me, second time watching Vinland Saga |

| Actually rlly satisfying moment here between Thorfinn and Askeladd and sht and this being the last episode for this season is just pure wholesome for me heha. Guess it's time to move on to season 2 which is still airing yes. Also rip Askeladd and it's time for Thorfinn to shine. |

| RIP Askeladd. You were an evil bastard but a great character... |
| Never have I shed a tear for a villain antagonist before |

| What a fucking ride, holy shit. When Askeladd decapitated the king, I had straight up Red Wedding flashbacks. I can't even imagine this story without him; I grew more and more to feel he was the real protagonist. Askeladd... was a true warrior. man I feel deeply for Thorfinn. Despite appearances, Askeladd was clearly a father figure to him, and he was deprived his entire reason for living. I don't know what that means for his character development. I love a good character death, and in a way I think that Askeladd's arc was told, but at the same time... I was really hoping Thorfinn was coming to save him. I wanted a culminating final scene -- someday, not now -- where Thorfinn finally grows enough to slay Askeladd and know his entire life was purposeless. And now Thorfinn knows his entire life was purposeless; he was deprived of his growth prematurely. I anxiously await what becomes of his character. |

| They really killed the only character i liked in this anime. Annoying and screaming thorfinn with ragnar were so painfull to watch. There is no reason for me to continue with season 2 but i will give it a chance. Remembering thorfinn's repeated scenes with duels makes me not give it chance but i will try since season 2 is considered as a better seinen version of season 1. This could have been much better in the hands of better director. Death of thors was so badly written as well. This anime is considered as seinen however it contains shounen type of characters that have too much power as one person. Therefore this took away the anime's seriousness. Only scene that was written and directed really well was askeladd's death. Prince's development in one episode was so badly written that it made me laugh during these scenes. From low level introvert to king potential god tier lvl. This still makes me laugh LOL 7.5/10 |

| You know for me it didnt really sink in how impressive this series actually is until later in the series. I don't really know what words to even type to lay out my thoughts. |
