Anyways, Jokes aside Lads,
Welcome, my fellow anime voyagers, to the saga that is Vinland Saga Season 2. It's like a Viking longboat, not the fancy kind with the dragon head, but the workhorse kind that gets you from point A to point B without losing a single crew member to sea monsters. It's definitely not a 9, to the dismay of many, but it's a sturdy, reliable 8. It's like the porridge of the anime world - not the most exciting dish on the menu, but it fills you up and keeps you going.
The story is a whirlwind of Viking emulating shenanigans with a now sheepish Thorfinn, with enough twists and turns to make maybe only a baby sailor seasick. The characters used to be as complex as a Norse knot, each with their own tangled web of motivations, desires, and fears. But this season, you could easily read any character except one or two. Thankfully though the animation is still like a Viking tapestry, not the most detailed or vibrant, but it tells and suits this story right, and that makes it worth paying attention to. The sound is like the rhythmic rowing of oars, not particularly melodious, but it sets the pace and keeps things moving.
But let's not ignore the sea monsters in the room. Yes, my dear reader, even the mightiest Viking saga has its flaws. There were times when the pacing felt as slow as a longboat caught in the doldrums. Those farming days at the start still chokes me full of wheat in my nostrils and throat somedays, but we have survived. There were moments when the plot was as predictable as the tides in Switzerland, now those who do not know basic geography, Switzerland is a landlocked nation. But these are mere barnacles on the hull of an otherwise sturdy ship.
So, should you watch Vinland Saga 2? Well, if you're a fan of epic Viking sagas, complex characters, and battle scenes that make you want to shout "For Odin!", then the answer is a resounding HELL NAW. But if you're looking for a light-hearted, easy-to-digest anime, then you might be surprised STILL HELL NOOO. This is not a pleasure cruise, youll have to till, plant, water, ohh sorry my farming disease from watching this show was acting up again, cause if you were to watch I promise you, you will be able to plant a farm yourself with the amount of farmning they showed us.So only watch,, if you are truly a fan of vinland saga, tread forth carefully anime viewer, take those preceeding words seriously, or reklse, you cannot blame me!!
In the end, Vinland Saga 2 is a very conflicting show. It's not the most glamorous journey, but it's definitely one that will leave you with tales to tell and sagas to sing. It's not perfect, but it's a damn good anime. And in the grand scheme of things, isn't that what truly matters?
So, strap on your helmet, grab your shield, and join the crew of Vinland Saga 2. And remember, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. See you on the other side, fellow Viking.
Thanks for reading, you beautiful berserker. Until next time, stay awesome.
