This is the greatest show I’ve ever seen.

2024-03-01 21:55:06 +0000 UTCThis is my first watch of this show, really enjoyed the first ep. it's been hard for me to watch anything after AOT but i liked this. ready to see where it goes

2024-02-20 02:45:59 +0000 UTCI very much enjoy you saying it's your cup of tea, when you immediately understood the point of the story being told. You hit the nail on the head with extremely minimal context. Vikings are fucking cool, they are also brutal and flawed. Especially when in relation to slavery, land, and power struggles.

2024-02-19 07:45:35 +0000 UTCTripping. FMAB is fire
William Dorion
2024-02-19 07:42:32 +0000 UTCIt's funny what you say about vikings not being cool, given what the message this show tries to convey is haha
Elliott Tomkings
2024-02-19 02:07:06 +0000 UTCWhile this anime has fiction there are also real life historic moments and characters. It's history in anime form so you can also learn some things from this show.

2024-02-18 07:29:44 +0000 UTCThe antagonist in this season is one of the best written in all of anime, heads up for you Jon if you will see this comment.
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-18 03:09:30 +0000 UTCAre u gonna do another show alongside Vinland saga?

2024-02-17 20:41:21 +0000 UTCBack 2 back fireeee anime choices. peakkkk
DW
2024-02-17 19:48:27 +0000 UTCThe farmland arc is peak cant wait until Jon gets to Season 2
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-17 14:34:11 +0000 UTCI have seen the Tokyo Ghoul anime and only the first season was good, season 2 was meh and season 3 was absolutely trash. Might have to check out the manga then.
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-17 14:30:18 +0000 UTCCrazy thing is, it’s just a prologue, it even works as a stand alone story, but this genius set up for the next story arcs is incredible
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:27:45 +0000 UTCThe anime added some filler with thorfinn as a kid, yet it’s well done filler, it definitely slows down the pace. Luckily those are just 2-3 episodes, and then it’s about to get heavy
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:27:02 +0000 UTCIf you won’t like it till half way, the show won’t be for you. But if you enjoy it, it could become the best story you ever witnessed
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:25:40 +0000 UTCThat’s why people need to start reading the manga. The first season is just the tip of the iceberg. Denji is just a 16 yo MC, very relatable and realistic character for that age, no save the world shit like in Naruto, he is not the chosen one, he is just a regular young boy in puberty, which makes his growth in the next arc (which will be covered in a movie) the better. Chainsaw Man is a one of a kind story, I can definitely tell you that
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:24:08 +0000 UTCThis is so gonna be your cup of tea
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:20:53 +0000 UTCI think the sheer realism of the characters, especially the antagonist, will make you love this story
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 09:05:53 +0000 UTCYou’re about the witness greatness, a story and message conveyed like never before
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 08:56:22 +0000 UTCI disagree, it is very possible for him to even enjoy it more than AOT, yet AOT was his first big genius thing to watch, it may depend on what you watch first
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 08:47:56 +0000 UTCFacts, well actually not facts, both are fucking amazing and so close to each other..yet I prefer Vinland Saga
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 08:46:51 +0000 UTCSo happy about this choice!
Kehmind
2024-02-17 08:46:46 +0000 UTCThe big 3 obv (vinland, vagabond and berserk), the climber, 20th century boys and pretty much anything by the goat naoki urasawa
Christian Golub
2024-02-17 08:46:03 +0000 UTCI‘m glad he didn’t chose FMAB
nicolas
2024-02-17 08:35:19 +0000 UTCEpisode 4 is what absolutely hooked me to the show😆
Cillian Doherty
2024-02-17 08:07:56 +0000 UTCErased is very good, only about 13 episodes too so you can binge it
Jehlani
2024-02-17 07:21:04 +0000 UTCyeah this is what i'm here for
Eamonn
2024-02-17 05:13:00 +0000 UTCCan't lie, I was a bit disappointed that you didn't choose Fullmetal Alchemist, but I haven't watched this show so it'll be fun watching it alongside you. Looking forward to it! Also, please watch fullmetal alchemist brotherhood after this one ;)
Petter Virtanen
2024-02-17 01:12:45 +0000 UTCI recommned reading Berserk, Vagabond, Monster and also Tokyo Ghoul and also One Punch Man is technically seinen.
James
2024-02-17 00:44:57 +0000 UTCI forgot how fucking incredible the music is in this show.
James
2024-02-17 00:41:27 +0000 UTCAnybody know some other good seinens?
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-17 00:03:39 +0000 UTCS;G is goated and the writing is beautiful.
Joe Brown
2024-02-16 23:36:45 +0000 UTCYeah Denji is just a horny fucker for the majority of the season lmao
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-16 23:27:55 +0000 UTCYou have no idea what you missed out on bro
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-16 23:26:47 +0000 UTCAoT started out as a shonen but even in its early days i never thought it was one, but yeah as it went on it definitely became a full fledged seinen.
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-16 23:23:55 +0000 UTCThanks for pointing that out, AOT was very mature for being a Shonen. Although AOT is my favorite all time I prefer Seinen in general
PO
2024-02-16 23:07:04 +0000 UTCYou will see almost zero silliness in this show because its a seinen. Seinen mangas are targeted towards adults meaning they are a lot more darker and mature than other genres of manga.
Patrik Žauhar
2024-02-16 22:57:21 +0000 UTCplease watch steins gate or death note at some point that would be insane
Sammy
2024-02-16 22:24:46 +0000 UTCit really does not deal with more serious themes, i love chainsaw man so much but the mc literally spends the first half of season one going after boobs lmfao
Elijah Slocombe
2024-02-16 22:15:37 +0000 UTCI read the manga, this show is better than AOT
Aiscrim
2024-02-16 22:14:39 +0000 UTCIt might not be another AOT, but Vinland is extremely enjoyable
PO
2024-02-16 21:57:47 +0000 UTCBefore this becomes a whole thing, his name is pronounced Lay-f Ericson.
Jabin (Aelic)
2024-02-16 20:19:24 +0000 UTCFeel free to mention AOT in your reviews and reactions by the way, since its your only real experience with the medium. Anime has a lot of tropes and storytelling devices that are commonly used in most shows, and its interesting to see how each show executes them differently and using different styles
Mike Donohue
2024-02-16 20:11:59 +0000 UTCloving the animation already. saw it was WIT studio in the intro, fire. looked it up to make sure and apparently s2 is MAPPA. feels familiar ;)
ryanemmerson
2024-02-16 20:09:19 +0000 UTClets go
Conzinho
2024-02-16 19:56:08 +0000 UTCI honestly don’t think so. It’s very good but AOT is genuinely more creative/directed etc. I honestly wouldn’t compare it because of potential let down
Paper
2024-02-16 19:23:34 +0000 UTCdeals with a lot more serious themes than jjk, plus i feel like he’d enjoy the visuals and the direction of the anime
Aadi Ravichandran
2024-02-16 19:23:14 +0000 UTCChainsaw man is a bit silly for the thing that he likes.
Paper
2024-02-16 19:22:06 +0000 UTChes acc going to love this show lmao, i acc think he might put it level with aot when its all said and done
Elijah Slocombe
2024-02-16 19:08:13 +0000 UTCExcited to rewatch through this after watching season 2 recently, can’t wait for my country’s intro🤑
Joab Taylor
2024-02-16 19:03:55 +0000 UTCI watched this season 3 years ago when no one was really talking about it at the time so I kind of forgot about it but after checking out season 2 that aired last year I realized how much of a masterpiece it all was! So pumped to go through it again
Matthew Valentine
2024-02-16 18:52:10 +0000 UTCit would be cool to see vinland saga + chainsaw man in the schedule, chainsaw man is pretty short anyways (12 episodes) so it would work out
Aadi Ravichandran
2024-02-16 18:46:55 +0000 UTCThis is a great show, very grounded and very introspective. Lots to analyze. If you're looking for another really great, plot-centric, not silly anime I would recommend the 90s Berserk series as one of the all time best. Only like 25 episodes too!
Ethan Ross
2024-02-16 18:43:49 +0000 UTCOh I’m jacked about this one!
John
2024-02-16 18:38:33 +0000 UTCGreat start to the story and Yutaka Yamada is the composer of the music?! The man is an absolute legend. It's looking really promising.
Conix
2024-02-16 18:38:20 +0000 UTCA New Journey Has Begun,
Suave Player
2024-02-16 18:32:53 +0000 UTCLast time I tried to watch Vinland I bounced off around epsiode 4. I'll try to stick with it this time
hman70
2024-02-16 18:08:25 +0000 UTCIf you’re already into the show then get ready because it’s one hell of a journey…
Cillian Doherty
2024-02-16 18:05:50 +0000 UTClets gooo
moti
2024-02-16 18:03:21 +0000 UTCIn my opinion, Season 1 drags a bit for me, I think it gets a little bit too silly in points and I kind of hit a point of like "okay c'mon please continue with the actual story". The first few episodes are great, the last few are great and there are definitely some good ones in the middle, but yeah that's my opinion. HOWEVER, Season 2 is fucking incredible, actually insanely amazing and I think you might feel similarly so just wanted to let you know to definitely be aware that it does all build for *something*
Leon
2024-02-16 18:02:25 +0000 UTCSo glad ur watching this show. It’s so beautiful, the music and the visuals. Enjoy.
Nicolas Guevara
2024-02-16 17:33:53 +0000 UTCThe new journey begins !
stevetar
2024-02-16 17:32:59 +0000 UTCSeason 1 in itself is the epitome of a perfect story. Start to finish.
Cully Colantino
2024-02-16 17:18:28 +0000 UTCI mean in a way we are the offspring of survivors and warriors, the ones who lived. It's in our veins. Our ancestors have 100% killed others and it led to them surviving. So yeah it makes sense that we in a weird way admire warriors.
Sam
2024-02-16 17:16:23 +0000 UTCFuck yeah
Matthew Earl
2024-02-16 17:12:55 +0000 UTCLet’s goooo
