Vinland Saga 1x05 Reaction

@Orr You need to find something more productive to do with your time

Liking evil is tantamount to hating good.

Orr Malus

yea thats a good mindset for this show. always keep in mind that 98% of the show is filled with "bad people". they are killers with close to no morals. that dont mean we cant like them as far as characters go. its like Walter White or Daemon. Terrible people but still fan favorite characters. Liking a bad person dont mean irl we agree with what they do

Danny

tbh I think the next episode is the most brutal

Mahni Alizadeh

A bit unrelated but I’d like to suggest neon genesis evangelion for the next anime pole, I’ve been rewatching it and all I can think about is how good your discussions would be, definitely up there with the best like AOT

tbh idek what's the danish pronunciation, i just say "asheladd" but the e barely pronounced. it's how i read it should be pronounced and i just went with it.

I just pronounce it Danish / Norwegian. As a native speaker of one of the Germanic languages, this is the easiest pronunciation for me.

I would like to suggest Violet Evergarden for the next anime pole. It is the most beautifull show i have ever watched and it was the first show to ever make me cry

Sammy

the way that the are right and everyone just keep commenting how they think askeladd is pronounced and they all say different things 😭

Delete the the spoilers man wtf is wrong with you people

tbh them not knowing how to pronounce askeladd's name is just funny to me. let's see if they get to pronounce it well at some point, i'm just sitting here enjoying hearing whatever pronunciation they come up with next. i do really enjoy this episode and the next. i was really in the mood after your discussion and ended up rewatching the finale of the season while having lunch. just a fantastic show. now i really want to keep reading the manga but the latest volume isn't out yet and i prefer to read the official translations. thought it's really hard to wait because they take months with each volume and the volume itself doesn't even take an hour to read 😭 i'm a bit behind with mob because the beginning of the seasons are always a bit slow and i have quite a few shows to catch up with and not enough spare time but at least i'll have a buch of reactions to watch once i catch up.

there were a lot of female warriors in the viking age...

Friend

delete spoilers wtf man

T0ast

Hey man let's not spoil stuff like that. Also considering we are following warriors for most of this season it's normal not to see many women. It's also not entirely necessary as we see from a brilliant series like Mob Psycho.

Yall cant forget the LADD in the ending of Askeladd. Not Ask-Gal lmao. There's no G in his name. You'll get it soon. maybe you look up how you pronounce Askeladd if you still cant get it within the first 10 eps lol. Or just listen to how they pronounce his name in the anime. They say his name a lot in the series

Excellent discussion! 👏 Hope it's not too spoilery to say hang tight for some great female characters in this series, some of my fav! But for now, obviously following Thorfinn and the crew. Just go Ask-a-lad 😅 these pronunciations are getting out of control!

Chris V

This episode is up there with the best episodes of this show in my opinion. I had to smile When Thorfinn learned to hunt for himself, even though it’s so tragic, That part was wholesome to me

Jesse S

Lol, honestly though it's posssibly my personal favorite of the entire season

enchantertim

It's always the next episode that people are looking forward to, no matter which episode you are now. That will never change :D

Robert H.

Glad you're enjoying this. Personally the most interesting aspect of this show is the Thorfinn x Askeladd dynamic. I'm really looking forward to your reactions and opinions on that. And also, the next episode oh boy.. Really looking forward to that one as well
