I knew something will go wrong if he let her go see him, at this point I'm really curious where the season will go from here.

twice !!! fucking 2nd time snake's men underestimate garder and get what they deserve for their mistake.

for the love of God snake should either get a new crew and tell these fuckers to stop being mercenaries or whatever the fuck they are and rot .

seriously man ik it's for the plot and whatever happens further is Hella fire like the whole season so far but they're just too dumb to be in snake's crew . I mean garder was strong enough to slice a man in half and wow they believed arnheid , his WIFE wouldn't help him escape.

overall peak episode, peak animation and an emotional episode 🥹. Those bits of thorfinn's past make me wonder if the entire show was done by mappa would it have made it more darker 🤔 no hate to wit S1 was peak but just a thought (before someone calls me mappasexual or something)

To be fair, I honestly thought Arnheid was going to not free him, because she said last episode she wasn't going to let anything come between her and her new child. She placed her hand on her belly and looked really hesitantly towards the sky. I was genuinely surprised she put herself and her child in danger by freeing him. It makes sense why she would, I just assumed after he killed the guard that she viewed him differently than the husband she once knew and wouldn't save him.

This episode is really good, it's actually one of the best episodes of this season IMHO.

The soundtrack on this episode, for the most part, was pretty nice too. I hope nothing happens to the girl, she's an accomplice now so she will obviously be punished for this or even killed, she better escape now, Snake won't stand for any of this and in the next episode it looks like Thorfinn will confront Snake to save them, interesting.

I'm starting to like Thorfinn as a character too, his ambitions in not killing seems unrealistic though but yeah, I get his point, he's just fed up on all that killing and he wants to create a peaceful land where everyone lives happy but what will happen if you get raided? you need to defend yourselves too, if you don't you will get killed or be sold as slaves, this is why his ambitions are somewhat unrealistic in that era but I get it, if you want something like this to happen you better be a king or something and start setting up some rules and even kill the guys opposing your rules since you need to start from the root, get rid of the guys opposing you to start from the beginning with new rules and set up a new mentality among those people, there's still killing involved here so it's not an easy fix.

Anyway, this is a great episode and again, the 2nd opening is freaking awesome, the more I hear it the more I'm loving it.

PEAK SEINEN ANIME RIGHT HERE, and for those who don't like thought-provoking character development, there's gonna be some fighting soon. If only Berserk got the same love as Vinland, the only decent anime adaptation we've ever had was the 90s release. And god please give us a Vagabond anime adaptation already, Inoue gave me the biggest blue ball ever... I'm glad Pluto got one tho! SEINEN ROCKS!

Ahh this anime is trying to show Snake being a bad person, but this is just not the case.... Now Gardar created more atrocities, and Snake was even lenient on not killing Gardar, but killing like 7 of Snakes Men is the last straw for him.

Damn.
I feel so bad for Arnheid now. She just wanted to tend to Gardar's wound and check up on him. When her husband apologized right in front of her, she teared up as she was reminded of the trauma.
Gardar is making it extremely complicated for Snake now. Leaving Snake no choice but to try and kill him. Snake wasn't having any of this BS.
I just hope Arnheid will be ok. She had been through a lot of suffering already.

Thorfinn's speech was quite moving. Incredible character growth. He's gone from an angry boy who wanted revenge to a man who just wants to carve out a decent life for himself and others. Much like Thors. However, he is still naive in my opinion. You can avoid war, but sometimes you must fight for what's yours in order to protect it, as Einar pointed out.

My mind was internally screaming Vinland throughout that entire discussion Thorfinn and Einar had.

After Hell's Paradise, this is the second anime with a guy biting off someone's body. Which will be the third one, I wonder. Most likely Heavenly Delusion.

alright then, i guess she really did want him back. kinda sad to see that her effort will probably not matter in the face of the guys brother? i dont understand the snake characters relationship with the family, is he the lords son? brother? good friend? or a family member? either way both died in eyes. she might die idk im guessing she is going to.

Farmland saga the drama is real.
"The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there."

The episode was one of the best till now in the series, and is very important for the future of the series as well. We got to see more of Thorfinn's ideology and got a lot of depth to his character. Seeing his take on war and violence is really interesting. Gardar's story is also really interesting too.

It is very exciting to see the turns that this season is taking, the dichotomy between peace and war, the will to live or to fight, the eternal barbarism of the human being fighting for wealth and power or just for mere pleasure, the horror of history that we have been carrying for millennia and from which it seems that we will never learn...

I wonder whether Thorfinn is going to uphold his promise to never take a human life again. Things are starting to get even more intense, that it may come to the point where he doesn't have any other choice...

This Gardar arc kinda feels like filler since it has nothing to do with either Thorfinn, Einar, or Canute but it's still very interesting to see anyway ^.^

the pace is too slow, all we saw was a guy run away and thorfin finding a dream to pursue... and the dream was really easy for them to find "oh I just remembered" bruh.

The show is not supposed to be fast paced helter skelter. 

It is designed to show character growth and change. 
doesn’t mean the pace wasn’t too slow to some ppl. I think it was way too slow at the start, even for a more thoughtful season. Now the pace is just about right though. It’s really picked up since the final episode of the first cour
