[Premium Access] Vinland Saga 1x2 Sword - Group Reaction

It’s still kinda sad the others are missing out on this. It’s not the typical shounen battle anime you guys normally watch so I feel like this would have be a great change and watch for everyone. Like this anime is very well written.

Guys, Marketa is right. This show has no correlation to the Vikings show. The characters are different and the story told is different. You'll just be confused if you compare between the two. Watch it like you're watching a new show.

I am not passing on this one.

to add to this: It would make sense that characters are named after Vikings from their heroes era. So,like Floki, Halfdan, Harald etc. you will encounter names you recognize, but they won't bear any connection to the characters you saw on the live action show, unless they are specifically referring to events that took place over 200 years before.

The best character has finally appeared :) You guys should react to ''The Last Kingdom'' another vikings show...it's such a great show, personally prefers it to Vikings. I'm on Season 4, it's such a blast and intense AF!!

Great discussion! some personal opinions about the expectation while or before watching this anime: for an anime that focuses on history, war and characters' development; this show should be considered quite marvelous. the scores, animation, and emotions are very on points when you get further into the series. although Pat might potentially find it boring in the early episodes due to the fact it is a slow-paced historical anime, the slow pace is technically a proper way to portray a brutal, raw but complicated history. therefore, if people are expecting magnificent fighting sequences and very compelling stories they found in another anime produced by the same studio (people should know what anime I am talking about), chances are, they might get a little disappointed. however, as long as you choose to experience this anime with some patience, it will display some very outstanding character development you can find on tv, anime or not. Hope my comment could be somewhat useful and really hope you guys will enjoy this anime like I did.

We really need Suraj for this show imo! I feel like he will really enjoy Vinland

Vikings TV show takes place in 793 AD. Vinland Saga is set in around 1000 AD.

Is the manga finished?

It kept me hooked long enough for me to like it by that point. It was a good thing that they dropped like 2 or 3 episodes at one time tho even if it did take longer than usual to drop them cause of the way everything plays out in the next couple of episodes. I got to experience that all at once.

Damn.... now I wish we had a double drop next week lol

Fun fact - this series is way older than Vikings...the tv show, not the people i mean lmao. It's just the anime just came out recently, but the manga started in 2005.

Is amazing to see u thinking about what is gona happen, u are on for a ride. Best character development I've seen in a while

paujd

Lol it’s already started

It is not the same Floki. The Floki you know discovered Iceland like 200 years earlier. As far as i know theres no characters that overlap because Vinland is actually more historically accurate lol live action Vikings just will throw people in there from different times

Great observation by Nahid regarding how much Thors village is removed from war. I thought it was just the kids that never experienced it but it seems their parents haven’t lived through that harsh reality either.

Space Mechanic

I hope we get the full team for episode 4...

I'm so glad Marketa spoke about it. It was getting annoying with all the Vikings talk. Some of us don't care about that show.

You should be their manager since it seems you have a great understanding of scheduling and the practicality of reactions :)

taco posh

I second this

Leaky Peach

Can we please get Suraj and Chris in this too? This is going to be something special and different from the onslaught of shonen anime they are watching right now.

Saifu

TBH I didnt like Vinland Saga or I didnt get into it until I watched ep 3 or 4. Thats when it gets good asl

Alex cleveland

That's too bad because this is the anime of the year (2019).

Lawliet

Jarryd Thompson
