i disagree that thorfinn is stronger in this fight because askeladd is not even trying to win the duel he was just defending and teaching him something

chrstian abrham

Askeladd dropped the weapen to aim for a grab... So Thorfinn kept his distance...

Elsa8888

I agree with Kenny, I think Askeladd knows Thorfinn has progressed to a point that if he took him on in a straight up honorable fight there's a chance Thorfinn might either actually get one over on him OR that he would have to kill Thorfinn which he doesn't want to do at this point because it's not only a waste of a great warrior in his group but that he does still feel some small amount of guilt for what he did to Thors who he actually respected as a warrior and as a man.

VINLAND SAGA SEASON 1 SPOILER Bro why is Kenny so good at calling out Askalad

AJ Hutchinson

The way I look at the moment in the duel when Askeladd is trying to rile up Thorfinn, is more of Askeladd trying to impart a lesson on to Thorfinn. What I mean by that, is I think Askeladd is trying to point out Thorfinn's weaknesses in battle, because in his own twisted way he's kind of rooting for Thorfinn to win. So him doing the whole 'I don't remember your father' thing was his way of showing Thorfinn what he was saying at the dinner party, 'Everybody is a slave to something', in this case- vengeance.

Kenny you and Montana aren’t ready!!!!! You haven’t even hit the midpoint of season 1 let alone finish the season

Eric

I’m with Kenny on this. When Thorfinn got riled up he took a wide swing for a forceful blow, when he usual goes for targeted. Like going for a haymaker instead of a tight hook

GreatRiverofKings

Isayama (AoT) and Yukimura (Vinland) are fans of each others works. Kenny’s (from AoT) line where he says “everyone is a slave to something” is actually likely a reference to Askeladd’s line, as the manga for Vinland Saga actually released years before AoT despite its very late adaptation. In fact, this year the Vinland Saga manga celebrated its 20th birthday.

so excited for next episode, love hearing both your analysis on thorfinn and askeladd and how they differ, everyone seems to walk away from this show with a different perspective it will be interesting to see how yours evolves as it really gets into the meat of the story

Tyler

It gives "I'm looking forward to Gon kicking Hisoka's ass" vibes

David L

i need more episodes i can’t wait 🥲

Alex

Oof that's such a good analysis of Thorfinn's interaction with Hordaland and his dream dad/subconscious. He has some level of deep desire to ask these questions and understand Thors. That Pandora's box is right there in the corner of his mind. With a key hole the shape of his father's eye.

Jade

Random note, but i just want to say that I'm glad I discovered yalls channel back when i started watching AoT reactions. With heavy emphasis on the fact that yalls reactions are done WITH the content in the video itself. So many others I've looked into are all "watch alongs" where YOU have to have the content and play the reaction at the same time. (So you have to have two different videos playing at once and sync them up right) So much appreciation for yalls phenomenal content!

This show is so peak I can't wait for Askladds back story

Erin Ryan

i have never been so excited to see canute’s femboy era and thorkill’s insane antics. we’re getting to a great part in the story 🤞🏻

robo

“Endeavor guy” is here let’s goooooooo

Shinji

Kenny actually has played that on the channel before, so maybe there's a chance she's seen it. If she would initially dislike Kratos, that would be by design, as he's not the best father at the start of the game.

Thorkell MY GOAAAAAT

no u uwu

Also the way Montana reacted to when Thor’s said “still crying like a little baby” made me think if they ever played God of war on their game play throughs she probably wouldn’t like kratos lol

Franina

I get from a battle standpoint why you would think thorfinn would beat askeladd in a duel (and even that is a bit of a stretch) . But we’re only 8 episodes and we haven’t seen much of askeladd’s character so why would they kill him off/ have him defeated so early into the story. I definitely think the rest of the series will surprise you in how it plays out. Enjoying the theories and deep discussions so far

Franina

Yeah I was thinking he’s either underestimating askeladd or overestimating thorfinn😂, cause in actuality, everything is very intentional

defnotdai

That’s so interesting that when it’s shown that Askalladd’s not a slave to money and some would think maybe it’s just the fight itself, they show you the character who is

BLUEMONKEY18

Kenny. Quick note, remember that Askeladd has been shown to be pretty fast on his feet when he fought Thors and was actively starting offence during that fight . During this duel with Thorfinn, he barely moved much and only responded to Thorfinn attack, not because Thorfinn was a bigger threat but possibly because he didn't want to kill Thorfinn, which was why he provoked him psychologically instead.

RamenRay

Kenny always has W takes

Aj -

Trust there is depth, you're still pretty early on

defnotdai

Askalladd is a D1 rage baiter up there with all for one

Erin Ryan

The way "everyone is a slave to something" is basically a direct quote from attack on titan as well

Erin Ryan

"When has Endeavor not played a power house?" (shows Keith Shadis) Why'd you have to do Shadis like that lol?

HBelmont 24

I like how even after his death, Thors still delivers exposition for the series. Any reason to hear his and Muzan's voice some more.

HBelmont 24

idk how ur at 67 seconds out of a minute haha

Letts React

What did Kenny say at 26:67? The audio cut out?

HBelmont 24
