| Thorfinn tried to warn the villagers which was a nice move. too bad they didn't understand him. glad to see that he is adapting to his new environment. he understands that he has to defend himself at all costs. looking forward to the next episode. |
| "hurr durr he shouldn't be able to kill grown men hurr durr" |
 |
| what a depressing episode Askeladd said all the women belong to him Does that mean the mother and her daughter were...? When Thorfinn threw the knife at the enemy who's sneaking up to Askeladd, wouldn't it be funny if he was actually aiming for Askeladd and missed, accidentally saving him? lolol jk |

lostnspace said: Oh wow - I wasn't expecting a 10 year jump. It makes sense - that's able to take on grown me. Thanks for the clarification. He’s about 11 here in this episode when he’s in the village. So it was about a 5 year jump, & then the next skip will be about 5 years, so he’ll be 16 for the main story timeline. ttcchen said: what a depressing episode Askeladd said all the women belong to him Does that mean the mother and her daughter were...? That was actually a different time. Thorfinn was much younger when that conversation went on then when he was saved by that lady. But even so, we can assume that their fates weren’t good if they were caught... |
| Ha-ha, you're a bad guy now, Thorfinn. |
 |
| Thorfinn already became a little badass. It will be very interesting to see how the relationship between him and Askeladd develops from here on. I had a lump in my throat during the raid at the end.... |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
Mythologically said: This is beginning to rival Dr. Stone for the title of "hardest to believe show of the season". The little kid can kill professional soldiers because he is the main character 😎. It's also beginning to rival Arifureta for worst CGI of the season. For having pretty good animation and art, the CGI is pathetic. I'll give this a couple more episodes, but so far even the action scenes have bored me to death. Ever heard of Guts? He did worse and killed more experienced adults at the age of 9. |
| Thors wouldn’t be proud of his son if he was alive. I guess Thorfinn chose the dark side. It’s so weird to see him work for the guy that killed his dad. |
 |
| Probably the best episode so far, even better than the one when Thors died. Seems like his grown-up version is not as annoying as before. Perfect example of personal drama and cost of human life. Finally someone had put a mirror in front of him and it was well-done. Finally he realized he is now monster too and what his father tried to evade. |

| haha yes i shall shit talk monogatari in this thread about vinland saga. that'll show em |

Same reason why Bunny Girl Senpai is also quite popular albeit only the 1st 2 arcs had great chemistry imo |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| God this is so hard to watch... a little boy should not be living that life 😭 I am glad that Askeladd took him in though because things could've been so much worse for Thorfinn if he hadn't That last scene really got me. It was so damn sad but i just about managed not to cry haha |

Short_Circut said: Damn this show really is going for that historical accuracy, Vikings not having horns on their helmets (like myths say they do), archers doing most of the fighting, language differences. Also MC that isn't afraid to ho harm wow what a shocker The CGI soldiers though, that looked so garbage lol. Actually not even the soldiers the cgi in general is pretty garbage LalatinaDarkness said: Yeah, people in twitter really hyping it up and even hailed it as their "aoty that not even aot can top it." (It's their opinion but still) Crazy how a damn good animation blinds viewers. tbf considering how many action shows lately have had subpar animation, I can see how great animation can be blinding lmao The cgi wasn't really bad. The only noticible scene for me was when Askeladd's crew landed at the end of the episode. It wasn't really good, ngl. |
| Typical slav weeb who is hunting down normies on discord |
| ah this has to be one of my favourite chapters in the prologue, there's so much emotion packed into it. I think Wit studios did a great job on this one, seeing it animated really was a treat I think it really cemented how awful thorfinns journey has been so far |

I think Wit studios did a great job on this one, seeing it animated really was a treat I think it really cemented how awful thorfinns journey has been so far I'd agree that this is one of my favorite chapters in the earlier prologue, wit studio really outdid themselves adapting it. I'd argue that it was even more sad here. |

| So good man. What a brutal moment for Thorrfinn and that poor old lady. I doubt many of those villagers made it out alive. Besides that I really liked how they showed Thorfinn getting his first kill and then later getting two daggers. |
| Hard to see that grandma's face when she saw thorfin killing those man, he felt bad for that but the last face he showed was him getting back to his reality. Good to see his progression. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Sad and an awesome episode at the same time, we get to see him growing up with the pirates, but at the same time he's not the same person he was before |
| "It hit my ass" This viking has his priorities straight, even during an ambush. |
 |
| Looks like the vikings in this show are pretty much like the goblins from Goblin Slayer |

You wouldn't expect a kid to swing back at you , i assume that what happened there , still a stretch tho Mythologically said: It's also beginning to rival Arifureta for worst CGI of the season. For having pretty good animation and art, the CGI is pathetic. it was alright for the most part , that one scene of them landing which yeah . . looked bad Mythologically said: I'll give this a couple more episodes, but so far even the action scenes have bored me to death. i thought Thors vs Askeladd was dope , we are only 6 episodes in btw , we have 18 more still . |
| Great episode. Thorfinn growing to be a good warrior. And some worldbuilding. To the next episode |
 |
| Can someone tell me that the mother is alive? |
 |
| Thorfinn achieving his first kill, I see. Looks like he's on his way now. I can't believe that happened. It was a blatant sad episode. I pitied the old lady who took care of Thorfinn even on that limited time. That expression of emotions, I can't help myself but to be sad as well. Can't wait for the next. |

Ahri-is-cute said: all dead and young girls raped Can someone tell me that the mother is alive? |
Mythologically said: The little kid can kill professional soldiers because he is the main character 😎.. No, in this series some people have super strength or super agility. It is not realistic anime, you should already know this after episode four. |
| Finally we got to see Thorfinn in the battle because I've been waiting for this, and being a dual wielder too is nice. Thorfinn remembering his family is good to see, and not forgetting the task he got to do. I just hope he is not broken. |
