[Premium Access] Vinland Saga - 1x22 Lone Wolf - Reaction + Uncut

The Artorias they're talking about is King Arthur and his legend(his real name was Lucius Artorius Castus). The place she was talking about that he went to heal his wounds was Avalon but it is parallelled with the viking's Vinland.

Though not much of an excuse, the biggest things I would point out is that while their circumstances are similar their start points are very different. Askellad succeeded in 2 years but he was also 11 when he started his revenge quest and was in a more mature state of mind to understand what he needed to do. Thorfinn was probably no more than 7 when Thors was killed. I think the reason Thorfinn is so fixated on a duel isn't that he is honorable but because he saw that his dad was winning in a duel and only lost because Thorfinn himself was taken captive. I think he both wants to win the way his dad should have, and also actually believes he can win just because he doesn't have a way to be blackmailed into defeat like Thors. Thorfinn isn't so much honorable as he is extremely childish and naive. Everything in this episode greatly reinforces one of my favorite lines from Thorkell when he said he can tell that Thorfinn learned absolutely nothing from Thors.

My favorite part about this episode is the parallels of how Askeladd and his father interacted vs Thorfinn and Askeladd. Askeladd is raising Thorfinn in the same way his father raised him.

The place Askeladd's mother talked about is not Vinland, nor Wales. It is Avalon.

Thorfinn isn't honorable he's childish. None of his other actions speak of honor. Thorfinn is trying to finish his father's duel, he's trying to make right what his child brain deemed wrong. To be fair though, they lived very different trauma's. The broad details mirror eachother but Thorfinn had a loving family and a father the exact opposite of Askeladd's. It makes sense that he's more childish, Askeladd never had that luxury.

Pretty sure the next arc is supposed to be a movie.

IIRC, Season 2 was supposed to come out by the Summer or Fall of this year. However production got pushed back due to COVID obviously. Theoretically it should be out next year.

Next episode is gonna be good but it is all leading up to the final episode of the season. Can't wait to see how you guys react to it.

Great reaction guys except for Pat, tbh it's kinda distracts and annoys me when he doesn't react (doesn't read subs and sits with a stone face) in a proper way like other.

My personal favorite episode of the season!!

Zee

Dont quote me, but im pretty sure S2 or a movie was supposed to come out next year 2021 for Vinland Saga. Ik if its a movie then it'll be canon for sure.

This show is so goddamn good. Askeladd is such a perfectly written character! Man, I need season 2 already. I can't wait to see more of the story animated.

After you finish this season, it would be awesome if some of you re-watched Vinland in your own time with hindsight in mind. It's an even more rewarding experience. Or even better, read the manga (which is superior). I recommend reading from the beginning so you see what i mean, but if that's not your thing just start where the anime leaves off. Chapter 55 takes place right after the events of the season 1 finale. There are 176 chapters translated so far as of today. So there is a TON of content to read through. Could even make it a thing for the book club.

"I'm just a Viking" line get me every time so many layers in one line honestly such a layered and well-written character
