While most royal families are supposed to move through the oldest son there are plenty of examples throughout history of this not happening. The king is the king but in the end he’s only king because his forces follow him and many of those forces are from lands belonging to nobles. The king technically has authority over the nobles but if enough of them decide something it’s hard for the king to go against it or risk a rebellion. In this case specifically one group of nobles has decided that for whatever reason whether it be politically or economically they will benefit from Canute being king and the other has decided they will benefit from Harold being king. If something isn’t done to firmly place one as the heir of the throne the territories those two groups of nobles control could go to war and/or split into smaller separate counties. Their are other ways the king could handle this besides killing one son but leaving only one choice for heir is definitely easier than those other ways even if it’s very cruel

Ragnar's death was unfortunate, but it was also foreshadowed in the opening. 😢

I really hope they watch the ED at some point. It skipped to the next episode at the end of their ep13 reaction, when it came out.

Askellad is right on this part this dude was spoiling the prince too much, he is a prince he must accomplish his duty

jordan asumani

Judging by last episode, Imma guess "no."

HBelmont 24

Oof, there's gonna be a lot of "wait and see!", which is difficult, but ahhh it's so good!

Jade

I will second this request from my fellow viewer

Tyler

I always wondered does Kenny or Montana have any religious beliefs or beileve something is out there like an agnostic

Denmark at the time of the story was an elective monarchy, so technically anybody could be king but tends to be in the royal family to prevent civil war and sometimes from noble familys. the election was held by a court of important nobles from around the country.

Humbly requesting a double drop for 18 and 19 🗡️🤞

So happy you guys are loving this show so far, truly one of a kind. Cannot wait for you to reach season 2. BTW: The manga just ended very recently. Thank you Makoto Yukimura for this amazing manga.

Another example: last episode, Anne's hands were dry, with cracked fingernails from the cold.

18 and 19 definitely need to be

Another thing about the hands! Yukimura said he focuses on drawing hands to show how people lived. For example, Thorkells hands are covered in scars and is missing two fingers showing how much he has fought in battle also reminding us of his last fight with Thorfinn.

I was tearbending while reading the final chapter of Vinland Saga, truly a masterpiece of a story. I'm so glad you guys are watching it I hope you guys are enjoying it!

So about the succession question during this time i believe the danes had tingmoot election due to the only real requirement was being related to the royal line

Ragnar: "He may have been ya father, boy. But he wadn't your daddy."

I really think episode 16 and 17 should be a package deal

Lyrical Kell of Music

"It can't get worse than last episode, right?" cue Mark Hamill Joker laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Remember when they said “hopefully this is the lowest point and they rise from here” ? ….. yeah we need more of their optimism
