getting closer to the end yall :’) btw we are finished with Vinland saga on patreon and we’re on episode 19 of frieren!! feel free to check it out for early access and timer reactions ❤ patreon.com/alanamisako
@@AlanaMisakoI think you'll love 'The dangers in my heart'. Season 2 is airing rn and it has become my fav romcom plus it has topped anime rankings for all five weeks of this season.
As someone who hated Olmar at first this was a really great development to watch. Standing up to Thorgil for his own ideals was great to watch, especially because now he's more brave than his father.
Yeah, and even in a later episode Thorfinn says something like "it took you 1 year what took me 15 years to realize" or something like that, I'm paraphrasing. I've seen plenty of fans mock Olmar because they think he's a coward unlike Thorfinn, which talk about missing the point. Thorfinn slept through his battles, he had to kill thousands before he noticed their bodies were haunting him. Olmar had to only kill one man before it started haunting him. His mind is clearer than young Thorfinn's was.
I never understood how people could hate Olmar at the start to be honest. Sure he was a pretentious jerk who loved gloating about himself, but I saw him as a funny gag character rather than an asshole.
When Olmar is talking about having the courage to allow himself to be mocked. In just this episode we have two scenes in which a character is mocked - One when Ketil's wife micks Snake and throws the water on him, Snake stands there and takes it. He accepts her mocking. Second we have Drott's mocking of Thorfinn, he called him small and stinky, again Thotfinn stands there and accepts Drott's mocking.
It makes sense that Canute doesn't want to just run out and meet Thorfinn. Remember that the last time they met, Thorfinn was a crazed assassin, who could taken on Thorkell, fight his way though many men, and just all around assassinate anyone he set his eyes on (except Askeladd, but that's a whole other story). Canute has missed 4 years worth of his character development. For all he knows, the best assassin he has known, wants an audience with him, representing a losing side. Would a king really meet with such a man?
You're making it sound like he's afraid of him... let's be serious. He has no nostalgia about Thorfinn, just a mindless brute warrior, that's how he was in England, they didn't even talk. He's a king, he can't negotiate with someone other than the owner of the farm himself.
@@Bayard1503 yeah alright so the emphasis of canute being shocked hearing his name and him holding the scar thorfinn gave him was just there for show? plus canute also killed askeladd so he thinks thorfinn is now out for revenge cause he killed askeladd. try to understand the hints lil bro
@@Bayard1503 He is clearly scared of much more than just Thorfinn. Canute is at the peak of his paranoia and thus believes that anyone could be as conniving as he currently is. Knowing this, it is absolutely the case that he would be afraid of this unhinged assassin that he knew Thorfinn to be. Also, I just thought of this. If Thorfinn really was just a mindless brute and nothing more, wouldn't Canute want to have an audience with him? If he wasn't scared that he was gonna kill him, then he would definitely want to try to recruit him like he wants to with Thorgil.
Olmar is the man. Thorfinn, for all we love him, is written as an inspirational, almost mythic main character. Whereas Olmar is a realistic characterization of what a young adult in his position would be like at the beginning of the season. It's cool to see his evolution as a human.
Why do most people think Canute would want to see Thorfinn? Last he saw him he killed his "mentor" and sold him to slavery after thorfinn tried to kill him. He knew him as a blabbering savage with no remorse. From his pov he came to the farm thorfinn was sold to and now Thorfinn can get his revenge.
Thorfinn climbing with a mountain of bodies hanging from him, Canute facing the mountain of bodies he must climb - just one of an endless amount of beautiful touches and symmetries from Yukimura. Vinland is just written on a different level to most.
I love the message this episode gave Courage is not the absence of fear(Olmar being reckless and trying to kill)..It is the triumph over it(Olmar saying how he should've ignored the teasing even if being called a coward is a great fear of his) Olmar saying "Mock me if you want" is him triumphing over his fear therefore being courageous!
Don't know if you noticed this, but the girl who's father's arms were cut off. That was so worried about Olmar, is the same girl that Olmar slept with, not long after we met him. Her parents were trying to get into the good graces of Ketil at the time, which Olmar resented. Though I think the girl herself was quite taken with "The Young Master" hence he concern even though her father is now a double amputee.
It's cruel irony that Snake's men were right about Olmar: the fast track for him to become a real man was to kill someone. It's just that the type of "man" he became wasn't what they intended. And unfortunately, a sad truth about mankind is that they often only learn the hard way. It was the same with Thors and Thorfinn, just magnitudes greater.
Olmar standing up for himself is such a great moment, and Snake and Sverkel supporting him is great too. Time for the legendary moments in the next episodes. It's been a pleasure rewatching Vinland with you :)
Can't wait to watch your reactions of The Apothecary Diaries, especially of Episode 5. I watched 18 episodes so far, and I have to say, it is, without any doubt one of the best series of 2023. My, 2023 is been one of the best year for anime to this date.
Be fair to Canute. He hasn't met Thorfinn for four years. They didn't exactly part on the best of terms. He probably assumes Thorfinn is an assassin, and it's not a foolish assumption based on what he knows.
Hi Alana! I can’t help but wonder where the spy x family reactions went? I haven’t seen any of my favorite reaction channels watching the rest of season 2! Did something happen?
Entiendo porque la gente siente pesada esta Season 2, este arco en los primeros episodios se centra mucho en construir el escenario y a sus personajes, para que los episodios posteriores sean lo que son: Una obra maestra, un anime carente de fallas narrativas y coherente con los personajes, y eso solo puede venir de Escritores Increíbles como lo está demostrando ser Makoto Yukimura
I mean why would Canute want to talk to Thorfinn?? He knows him just as a mindless brute that he sent into slavery. Did they even have a single discussion in England??
You keep finding the best of the latest anime to watch, it's great. Apothecary Diaries is fantastic, and I'm sure when you get to Solo Leveling, you'll be all in (since it's from A1 with Sawano handling the music... Y'know, like 86).
I interpret Canute not wanting to see Thorfinn because of fear for his safety. Canute isn't that much of a coward nor so simple a character. I believe he doesn't want to see Thorfinn because he doesn't need to. Canute's current life has nothing to go with Thorfinn. Thorfinn is part of a past that is no longer relevant, and I feel Canute doesn't want anything to do with anything from his past, all he cares about is his future and his paradise.
What made me realise is that Thorfinn has got to do the Vivek ramaswamy here to ssve the world. It's no joke. This is serious stuff. Vinland Saga rules😊
I think it's really fun to follow your channel but I feel like you're wasting your potential by reacting to animes that are now finished, there's a lot of competition in your industry but you've managed to stand out, don't let that stop now , you have to jump on the trend bandwagon and react to the latest animes, such as solo leveling or classroom of the elite, or mashle animes that come out weekly, that's the only way to survive in this industry in the long term by following the trends pursue.
Where are "A sign of affection" reactions 🥲 they're too good these last 2 episodes. Also The Dangers in my heart and Mashle are top tier stuff this season 🔥
getting closer to the end yall :’)

solo levelingggggggg 🙀🙀🙀
@@Dhanush... i tried watching solo leveling, unfortunately it wasn’t for me!
Nice reaction, Olmar realized the true terror of war, btw do you plan on continuing reading it in the manga after you finish season 2?
@@AlanaMisakoI think you'll love 'The dangers in my heart'. Season 2 is airing rn and it has become my fav romcom plus it has topped anime rankings for all five weeks of this season.
I felt the same first few episodes, but enjoying it now (ep6)
hope you are enjoying Frieren, super good show

Standing up to Thorgil for his own ideals was great to watch, especially because now he's more brave than his father.
"I want to become a strong and kind man like you" My fav scene of Olmar bro literally represents the fanbase with this line.
Yeah, and even in a later episode Thorfinn says something like "it took you 1 year what took me 15 years to realize" or something like that, I'm paraphrasing.

They know the loudest one in the room is always the one most scared, they have nothing to prove to people that mock them.

After watching your last reaction I re read all of Vinland saga up till the latest point ,its so peak One of the greatest manga's out there
Facts, Vinland Saga is top 5 manga imo and the anime adaptation is amazing.
One of the greatest comics ever written, period.
I reread the whole manga once in a while, shts too good

Yū Hayashi (aka Tanaka from Haikyuu) does such a good job with portraying Olmar. I feel that sometimes he doesn't get enough cred for his performance.
Olmar standing up for himself is such a great moment, and Snake and Sverkel supporting him is great too.
Time for the legendary moments in the next episodes.
It's been a pleasure rewatching Vinland with you :)
I like Olmar's character growth in this episode. Gramps Sverkel always has nuggets of truth.
next episode is above peak fiction..🔥
I subbed to you after watching your reactions to Vinland saga . I’m glad your enjoying it the story goes over most peoples heads

Hi Alana! I can’t help but wonder where the spy x family reactions went? I haven’t seen any of my favorite reaction channels watching the rest of season 2! Did something happen?
The warriors pride of nordic people in that time. They look at dying in battle as a prescious gift
Alana Have you watched several episodes A Sign of Affection?
The next 2 episodes are some of the best. Episode 23 changed me.
Thorfin is the short king x)

guess this episode went over your head,
