another similarity with thorfinn and levi is they both grew up malnourished so they're not gonna be as tall as they could've been

2023-05-26 18:42:12 +0000 UTCIn case you were wondering: The start with Thors is 987 Story starts in 1002 - Thorfinn is 6 First time skip is 1008 (episode 6) - Thorfinn is 12 It's 1012 in this episode - Thorfinn is 16

2023-05-12 01:43:27 +0000 UTCAlso the story is following real history, the English DID massacre Danish settled villages in Danelaw, which caused Sweyn to actively start and increase raiding the English coast for roughly a decade+, this season is the depiction of THAT particular conflict from the perspective of Thorfinn's fictional history (who BTW was a very real historical person, Thorfinn Karlsefni, but we don't know anything about his young life thus the extreme liberties of the show)

2023-04-17 13:24:27 +0000 UTCViking is just a term to describe a raider/Pirate of Scandinavian origin (Danish, Norwegian, Swedish), fierce, yes, not OP though, and they CAN be matched by the regular English kingdom Army, man for man (except for FEW characters). They are bandits and occasionally mercenaries for hire for the right group (in this case it's Sweyn Folkbeard, King of Denmark). Askeladd's group are primarily mercenaries (who raid a LOT, obviously, they're Vikings) but the burning, pillaging, murder, rape? ALL armies did that, English or Scandinavian, still do it even, till modern times, albeit less. Jomsvikings are professional mercenaries, the most revered group with a foreboding reputation under the direct employment of King Sweyn (As opposed to 3rd party employments of the smaller raider mercenary groups like Askeladd).

luffy
2023-04-16 15:46:50 +0000 UTCExactly! And also I think Cannon said in one of the videos that why don’t they have shields to protect from arrows. It is important to remember that weapons, horses were very expensive then, not every common soldier could afford these. Those with a higher military rank had better equipment which increased their odds of survival. One must never underestimate the role of economics and technology in the past !
Shiro
2023-04-16 15:19:02 +0000 UTCYes, I was just going to say that! Nutrition plays such a huge role in human development, and if Thorfinn is pretty much fending for himself since age 6, he is most certainly malnourished
Shiro
2023-04-16 15:15:11 +0000 UTCthis is true! one of the reasons vikings were so successful was because of their unique boats that they could carry over small distances and catch the enemy off guard

2023-04-16 10:40:28 +0000 UTCIf you mix Levi and Eren together, you get a Thorfinn.

2023-04-16 09:58:22 +0000 UTCThere's so much history and mythology to this show that I could rant about forever but it's probably more fun to watch this this blind so I'll hold back 🫡 But Jörmungandr is the world serpent in norse mythology and it circles the entire world (midgard) biting its own tail. Funnily enough, he's the son of Loki lol
Mia Malvik
2023-04-16 09:25:54 +0000 UTCI'd love that but idk what they'll be into after they catch up to Vinland s2 (at least that'd be done by time they finish s1)

2023-04-16 08:55:07 +0000 UTC"No way he went from 6 to 8." "It says 17." "It was 9 years... er 11 years?" I know he just thought 8 to 17 instead of 6, but I still laughed.

keyton bush
2023-04-16 05:33:44 +0000 UTCif i remember correctly, this episode was the first chapter in the manga. so in the mangaka's early art, the character design for the frank is the only real one that looks jarring / wonky.

2023-04-16 03:12:25 +0000 UTCThorfinn’s development is insane, can’t wait for you to see that
Audreyldo
2023-04-16 02:23:32 +0000 UTCThorfinn is about 16-17 this time. Somebody explained that this is similar to “Levi syndrome” which means that due to lack of proper nutrition required for children, and constantly being in survival mode, he has stunted growth. If he had stayed with his family, he would have been very similar to his father because remember, even his sister is a strong and tall young woman. Moreover, when Thorfinn was 6, he was about as tall as those 10 year old kids he used to play with. 😔

BipolarKitten
2023-04-16 01:42:43 +0000 UTCAlso, I think Viking boats were very light, so they did carry them on land over short distances. And some evidence of vikings using psychedelic berserker mushrooms as well, though one cannot know for sure!

2023-04-16 01:20:07 +0000 UTCThis shows is amazing. Can't wait for your guys' reaction!!
Bradley Acosta
2023-04-16 01:11:34 +0000 UTCI think it would be good if you guys paid attention or even made notes of the years they keep flashing. That way, you will know exactly how old the characters are...Thorfinn in episodes 1-5 is 6 years old, I think last episode around 15:51 they flashed the year and the place...you will need to go back and calculate the age of Thorfinn (I think they flashed 2 years in the first episode - one when Thors is on the Norway campaign, and second when he is in Iceland with his family). Also, DO NOT look up characters ages or anything, YOU WILL BE SPOILED!
Shiro
2023-04-16 00:54:04 +0000 UTCSo glad to hear you are all enjoying it. Can't wait to watch your reactions later tonight ❤
