2023-05-31 22:50:00 +0000 UTCBut there are also many good anime that have only 12 to 24 episodes and are completed or canceled with a satisfactory ending. They should also get their chance.

2023-05-27 22:00:33 +0000 UTCUff 3 years, pick your poison. Like arcane i think its better to watch seasonal anime. Watch entertaining anime fast and free up slot for the next short animes. As for animes with more seasons or almost done should be in long animes slot.

2023-05-27 17:04:31 +0000 UTCWith Oshi No Ko, however, we would have the same problem as with Vinland Saga: the show is running right now. They can't just watch as many episodes as they want after a certain point. Also, with season 2 and season 3 coming up, do we really want to do that to them? They can still start the show in 3 years when season 3 is released.

2023-05-27 16:04:26 +0000 UTCAt least Thorgil actually lives the life he talks. He's not a poser like his father and brother. And those farmers were more than happy to kill for money so yeah I'd say it's pretty even that they died for Canute to make money.

2023-05-27 12:02:53 +0000 UTCwell, I haven't set foot in an h&m in years, in fact idek if there's one here, but i'll check. i found one i like and one i liked the front but when it arrived i hate the way the collar fitted so i just use it as a pyjamas. but thanks ☺️

2023-05-27 08:42:15 +0000 UTCThorgil doesn't get enough love. Not only does he have the most badass line of the series but he singlehandedly saved most of the farmers. Granted he also sacrificed >100 of them for his plan to work... well, it evens out, ok?

2023-05-26 23:34:13 +0000 UTCLove everything that happens the next few episodes… what an amazing adaptation Can’t wait Just wish we’d gotten a bit more from Arnheid personality wise or had more interactions with her and the other characters that weren’t drenched in drama
space1999
2023-05-26 23:29:24 +0000 UTComg, i love the t-shirt! just started the video and believe it or not i'm also wearing a fleetwood mac t-shirt right now. where did you buy it? it's really difficult for me to find a fleetwood mac t-shirt i like and i loved that one :) well, let's start this super fun episode 💀 also, as usual... fuck ketil!
sand_fl
2023-05-26 23:10:33 +0000 UTCAlso a line I really love from this episode is "the world exists for people stronger than you". Really sums a lot up for me. That Ketil scene kind of connects with the Fox scene at the beginning too. Both men who wielded power over others being outmatched in their domains, Fox by the Jomsvikings' strength and Ketil by Canute's authority. In this situation, we see they're basically just like the retainers, lashing out at those below them while/because they're pretty much powerless in the grand scheme of things (we saw this most explicitly and directly with Ketil beating Arnheid as a direct result of being made to feel powerless). But if the world exists for people stronger than you then really everyone suffers, because someone stronger will always come along.

2023-05-26 22:34:36 +0000 UTCIf I were to say every part of this episode made me cry I'd be describing most of the episode, but one part that really hit me that doesn't get mentioned enough is when Thorfinn started doing chest compressions and said his dad taught him this. Instantly brought the image to mind of Thorfinn walking into his house and seeing his dad trying to save the slave in the very first episode. And yeah man you can't expect me to think about adorable little 6 year old Thorfinn and the impact Thors had on him years down the line, well after his death, without sobbing.

2023-05-26 22:24:27 +0000 UTCBear with the show for 4 weeks girls. As much as i love your reactions, i enjoy your thoughts, your analysis, your takes, your opinions on show more. Waiting for 4 weeks for your vinland releases, i am gonna pull my hairs out of my scalp lol. Withdrawal won't be bearable.

2023-05-26 22:14:47 +0000 UTCPossible New Show (female lead character theme): 1. Violet Evergarden 2. A Place Further Than The Universe 3. Moribito 4. The Promised Neverlands (season 1 only; no season 2 exists in Ba Sing Se) 5. Spy x Family (Anya = best child; maybe later, because not finished, Season 2 is releasing Fall 2023, finishing 2024)

2023-05-26 21:28:48 +0000 UTCgood to see that their Ari theories are back, the true mystery of the show

2023-05-26 21:14:15 +0000 UTCThat would be awesome. So formulated: 29.05 - 04.06: [New Show] Episode 1 05.06 - 11.06: [New Show] Episode 2 12.06 - 18.06: [New Show] Episode 3 19.06 - 25.06: Vinland Saga 21 - 24 26.06 - 02.07: [New Show] Episode 4

2023-05-26 21:08:10 +0000 UTCRotoscoping animation at that distance is seen as a cop-out, done for budgetary reasons. It's very cheap when you only have two characters but becomes expensive when dealing with an entire cast of characters of different heights and body-types. I think it looks great personally. Would love to see an entire anime done with rotoscoping. And no, Chainsaw Man's hand scenes don't count. If anyone is interested to seeing more, I recommend Fire & Ice, the quintessential rotoscoped animated movie.

2023-05-26 20:57:54 +0000 UTCI would be down if they started something new to watch next week and release vs all at once after episode 24

2023-05-26 20:36:28 +0000 UTCArnheid's death is such a tragic one.. but it's definitely not one that went to waste. If our boys didn't have enough motivation already to make Vinland a reality, after witnessing her death and the things she said during her last moments, they have all the fuel in world to make it happen. I've been telling people this a lot lately, but I haven't seen a friendship this strong since Gon and Killua from Hunter x Hunter. (Although maybe I just haven't watched enough media, lol.) I love it. This might sound weird but there's not enough media depicting men showing compassion for each other like these two do. Thorfinn literally sat on the ground next to him and cried while holding him. That is true brotherly friendship. And yeah, the determination in Thorfinn's eyes is next level. "Canute only brought a 100 men. Pfft, I can make it back. Don't worry."

2023-05-26 19:54:47 +0000 UTCHeck I've been considering buying a second batch of all the current manga volumes, and this season's end may finally push me to.

2023-05-26 19:28:28 +0000 UTCtbh, Director, Mr. Shuhei Yabuta fought tooth and nail to get funding for this season. He has voiced it on twitter that he plans to work on this series till its conclusion but for that to happen series needs to also generate profit for the studio. That is why I am planning to buy some merch of vinland later this year and also they blue ray version of s2 as soon as it releases. I am also saving to buy hard copy edition of manga so yukimura sensei gets money for his effort. So its just a request to fellow patreons and lovers of this show...if you can then please go ahead and spend money on it. that's the only way we can ensure that s3 gets adapted this beautifully. its very rare imo, for a director to understand and appreciate the source work and do justice to it. animes can do cut corners wherever they can, but it has not happened with vinland.

2023-05-26 19:21:05 +0000 UTC49:37 Hahaha. Welcome to the anime release culture. If you're already so tortured by the weekly release, it's best not to start with a non-finished manga. The monthly release with content for about half an episode would probably kill you (it already kills me, 28 days until Vinland Saga Chapter 203 😖). But personally I can live with it if you take a 4 week break. BUT: Then I want to get the 4 episodes published one after the other. Don't make us Patreons wait 4 more weeks after the season finale for the Reaction to it. 🥺

2023-05-26 18:44:16 +0000 UTCI'm so sad we got four episodes left
Ulfway
2023-05-26 18:40:41 +0000 UTCI probably don't need to mention it, but Arnheid may have died in this episode, but her tragedy will reverberate in subsequent storylines and influence our characters in their decisions. She will not disappear. Like Thors and Askeladd, her death was not in vain and is another reason for the creation of Vinland. Like your imgur image shows, it's just another step for our characters.
Robert H.
2023-05-26 18:38:59 +0000 UTCFarewell, dear Arnheid, as we bid you adieu. In any other realm of storytelling, we might have yearned for a character like Einar to exact retribution upon Ketil and seal his fate. However, within the world of Vinland, having witnessed the trials that Thorfinn has endured, I could not bear to witness Einar suffer a similar plight. This episode had such good call backs. From showing us child Thorfinn along with Leif, to Thorfinn remembering words of Canute about God in episode s1 20 . Brilliant. just brilliant. Although my top call back is this: https://imgur.com/gallery/s88JQTy

2023-05-26 18:20:48 +0000 UTCSo far I've seen nothing but praise for the animation. The rotoscoping they did for Badger's fight looked beautiful

2023-05-26 18:19:42 +0000 UTCThis episode on Crunchyroll is 25 mins long and I'm pretty sure I cried for 15 of those minutes while watching it
Chris Gibson
2023-05-26 18:11:58 +0000 UTCI really have to say that I'm impressed with how the team animates the action. As far as I've seen so far in season 2, not once has the "camera" been rotated around a character (very difficult to animate, often CGI). Instead, the image is always static and we have vertical/horizontal movement of the image as the characters move (gets smaller as he moves away, bigger as he gets closer, ...). And in this episode, even rotoscoping (overdrawing real or 3D animated scenes) was used for Badger, which is why you really feel the weight of each axe swing. It's kind of unusual because WIT studio animators (now at Mappa) and Mappa itself very often use rotation and CGI to show action. Hopefully fans won't badmouth the animation because of this. It really is beautiful to look at.
