#vikings #reaction
"Oh, how the little piggies will grunt when they hear how the old boar suffered." This episode ... The little piggies have heard.
I love how the Allfather himself went to all of Ragnars sons and told them of Ragnars death
Vikings is so under rated,Travis Fimmel made Ragnar my most loved character in a show ever. Your reactions are so good as you actually watch & feel the journey we are on. Many miss the small things....wish you could do them daily!
And it definitely made a lot of people forget that Travis Fimmel was a model before he got into acting (there's rumours that his Calvin Klein billboard caused traffic jams) - though many would say that being the first male int he world to secure a six-figure deal to model exclusively for Calvin Klein for just a year is nothing to sneeze at).
and the earth will shake and rumble as ragnar enters the great hall of odin.
I think one of the things that fuel Ivar's anger is that he's constantly in pain and probably breaks a bone everyday he just doesn't show it so that he doesn't look weak and fragile in front of the Vikings.
That would definitly give him a veeery short fuse!
This is 100% correct! The actor asked Michael Hirst "is Ivar in pain?" and Hirst answered that Ivar is in psychical pain all the time because of his condition. And Alex brought that into his acting as well, especially his eyes.
He is comparable to Darth Vader in similar ways
Love Floki in this episode. He doesn’t care what god they’re praying to, he’s just in awe of the level of faith itself.
When talking with Ivar, Lagertha stayed unflinching the entire time until he promised to kill her. She took that seriously because she's made that exact same promise before. Also, we know from Ragnar's conversation from the seer last episode what he thinks about Lagertha getting help from the seer... "You presented her a destiny, and she manifested it." Has the seer ever given Lagertha good news? Yet she keeps going back to him. She's definitely one of the most faithful and unwaveringly religious of all of the characters, Ragnar, Rollo, Ecbert, Athelstan, Aethelwulf, even Floki have questioned their watch, but Lagertha stays true. Interestingly, this isn't even the first time Lagertha asked the seer about her death. She asked several seasons ago, and he told her that perhaps in the future, he'll tell her about her death. And now she's back.
Historically, Vikings and Muslims had a very different relationship than Vikings and Christians. Vikings actually developed good relations with Muslims, they traded together, visited each other, worked with each other, etc. In fact, much of our historical knowledge about Vikings comes from the Muslim civilizations of the time, which were much more advanced and kept lots of written accounts of Vikings. Floki's reaction, and the difference from his reaction to Christians, is a nod to that history.
This also fits Floki's character as well as where he is right now in his arc. Christians ran away at the sight of invaders which Vikings find cowardly, whereas the Muslims that Floki saved weren't afraid at all. So immediately there was respect there. Also, whereas the Christians immediately presented treasure to steal and images of a new god to hate, the Muslims presented abstract artwork and designs - very similar to Floki's own carvings and sculpture-work. Floki is a craftsman, and in the mosque he was able to admire pure craftsmanship and pure faith, two things that resonate very strongly with him.
The story of Odin delivering the news is taken from the Norse sagas, which are their traditional legends based on real history, but with their mythology inserted into the storytelling, very similar to the the Greek Iliad and Odyssey for example. It's a mythological representation of history, so Vikings presents it that way cinematically, whether or not that's how things actually happened or not, that's what the characters in the story think and how the story was retold. It's very interesting the exact timing of it - the very moment Bjorn reaches the Mediterranean Sea. Bjorn has been obsessed with this one goal since Paris - it's why he declined to go to England with Ragnar. He wasn't going to think about anything else until he reached the Mediterranean - but as soon as he did, he realized his father must be dead. He knows how long it takes to get to England and he knows 3 boats of old men are doomed to die; in the back of his mind he knows his father must be dead by now (all the sons do), but he just wasn't able to truly think about it and let it sink in until he succeeded in his goal of reaching the Mediterranean. Also, Wardruna's music is never anything but amazing.
Thanks for taking the time
Odin Only Talked to Ivar
No. He takled to all of them, but it is only shown he talked with Ivar.
The word you were looking for
Français : Mosquée / English : Mosque
Yes!! Thank you!! :D
@@kyuujinreacts very nice i love your reaction 👍👍 masjid in English it is Mosque ❤❤ thank you so much 👍👍
@@kyuujinreacts very nice you know about Muslim's i like that ❤❤❤
@@kyuujinreacts Thanks ❤
The SATISFACTION when you knew it was Odin 😍 many reactors are left confused as to who he is, but you saw right away. Youre so awesome, girls, sending love from Denmark!
Thank you!! I'm surprised people don't recognize him D: I thought the eye kinda made it obvious xD
i knew it was odin just for the ravens alone
It's funny how you're proclaiming Ragnar when the Seer told Bjorn that he should cursed the day Ragnar returned.
XD we're just happy whenever he's on screen tbh

@@kyuujinreacts
👏👏👏🏻👏🏻👏👏
p.s. 2parters plz!
Its a Mosque. You were close though :). Yeah and Helga is getting a bit desperate to think of "adopting" a child who her mother got killed infront of her by them vikings.
Thanks 😅 and yeah, Helga freaked me out this episode o.o she reacted in a very intense way and I can't see this whole thing going well :/
Odin! Allfather!
fill me with courage!
fill me with fury!
Yes the Vikings did cross over with Muslims in Spain, but it didn't go as smooth as this episode shows..
In real history the Vikings where defeated and most of their ships where distrotyed, some of them even converted, and later on Vikings traded with Muslims and some worked as bodyguards for Muslim chiefs..
In fact a lot of what we know today about Vikings came from Muslim sources from that era
I was recently reading a book by a Muslim scholar "the journey of Ibn-Fadlan" and i was amazed of how much the show took from that book
I love the music for this show
i love Lagertha and i don't have anything against her but.... i think it's fair that Ivar kills her xdd.
I don't wanna see it happen, but yeah...he'd be justified 😅
i love lagertha too, who doesn't?
and yes. she totally deserves to die for an cold blooded murder out of ambition... i can respect ambition and its results, but it is not an honourable cause
and then again...
i like Björn and so many other vikings(the 2 brothers fe) but they come, they see, they sloughter, they rape what they dont sloughter and enslave whats left...
i don't wanna come across as the judgy guy here, i mean it is their way of life, but...
...i dont know... they kinda all deserve to die xD
i mean i like most of them i guess and hope they dont, but objectivly speaking...they deserve to die, yes.
at the same time I get that Lagertha killed Aslaught given that the later took her whole life. I get every party involved, basically.
Next 3 episodes are amazing , especially the finale . Cant wait for season 5 either
Floki is a very spiritual man. The reason I think he protected the Muslims is because they didnt stop praying even in the face of death. When the leader of prayer was beheaded in front of them someone else stepped up to take his place as they continued. He respected that. Not to mention they didnt speak the same language and they were seemingly praying to nothing unlike the Christians. For all he knew they could have been worshiping the Norse gods too. There was no way to know so best not to kill them.
I do not think it is that Floki is intrigued I think it is more like he is afraid. He is a very spiritual man, his faith towards the viking GODS is very strong and he seeing them praying like that with no visual GODS present it scares him. For all he know they could be praying to another version of Odin. That is what I believe. He fears the GODS wrath.
Interesting 🤔 I could see it! Pure faith without any representation of the gods, is both beautiful and powerful, I could see how Floki would be disturbed (if not straight up scared) of such intense belief
@@kyuujinreacts Good point I tought the same but I also think it started after he killed Athelstan and lost the first battle in Paris.....I remember the scene where he was accusing Athelstan for their defeat but then he realized he was to blame....and that last scene just chiiiiiiills for me it was Ragnar crossing into Valhalla.....Btw Aslaug was kind of responsible for Bjorn daughter's death and it was never really adressed so yeah Lagertha killing her was a mistake but I'm still glad she's gone lol Super reaction les filles j'ai vraiment hâte de voir vos prochaines reactions
Really? 3 years no one explain properly? Floki is a religious pagan himself,he confused yet respected the muslims who prayer beacuse he believe true worshipers are those who do not run or crying for mercy like the saxxons,he don't interested in their Faith but in their bravery to Contunie praying@@kyuujinreacts
2:03 Odin is anywhere he wants to be. He's any age he wants to be - don't forget he was a shapeshifter too, just like his sworn blood brother Loki (not sure if the difference is that unlike Loki Odin never got caught or that unlike Loki Odin was always able to talk his way out of it fully rather than partly re the story when Loki nearly lost his head but ended up having his mouth sewn shut instead).
Lagertha definitely did not underestimate ivarr she knew hes ragnars son and im sure she knew he was capable of things that no one would've imagined.
I'm behind Floki and Rollo for different reasons. Floki cause he is on a spiritual quest, Rollo cause he wants the freedom to be a barbarian again. I mean I do not support his actions but I get them in his position of being Vikings in his blood.
Ragnar ❤️
It doesn't matter if Lagertha underestimated Ivar or didn't want to harm him due to him being a Son's of Ragnar. It's a weakness if she allowed a man who threatened to kill her, definitely not smart keeping him around.
Team Ivar 💪🏻
In English it's a mosque, just pronounced like 'mosk', kind of like how you pronounced it but without the 'ee' on the end. I think the reason Floki felt so attracted to the mosque and the Muslims praying was that it was kind of the opposite of his initial experience with the churches where everyone ran and screamed. In the mosque, everyone just kept praying even when the prayer leader was killed. So I think it's both that and also how spiritually empty he feels at the moment. Honestly, I kind of disliked this episode, maybe partly because I'm a Muslim, and I'm a little biased :p, but it's odd that the city had no army? At this time, Spain was either part of or closely tied to the strongest empire in the world, I can't imagine there was no army posted in a port city.
Thank you!! That bothered me for a while 😅 and now that you mention it, it WAS strange how the city just seemed to lack any guards! We saw a few here and there, but nothing that seemed to represent an actual army 🤔 strange!
Since you guys mentioned not knowing much about Islam in the context of the show, for the briefest rundown I can possibly do, it's a western-Abrahamic faith like Judaism and Christianity, they (or, well, we) believe in the God of Abraham, all the prophets, including Muhammad, and in Islam Jesus is not the son of god but just a prophet. By this time period in the show, the Islamic empire would've been in Spain for about 50 or so years, I think. They also controlled North Africa and basically the whole southern/eastern Mediterranean. That's why Rollo knew about them.
I remember learning about the origins and beliefs of Islam yeeears ago (probably around the time my class took that trip to the Muslim community here in Montreal) it's coming back to me a little bit! Thanks for refreshing my memory and adding some more information :D
@Alexander Brunnrgaard Yes, the Abbasids never ruled Spain directly but the Moors, before declaring their own caliphate, technically swore allegiance to the Caliph in Baghdad, even if they were essentially totally independent. So technically speaking, this would still be considered Caliphal territory until the establishment of the Caliphate of Cordoba.
Great reaction ❤️❤️❤️❤️ i love this episode 😭
At least you ladies know who it is out of 99% of the rections i have watched. Respect. Hail Odin.
Notice how the only 2 sons that odin physically touched were sigurd and ivar
Ivar will avenge you king ragnar
Odin came to ensure there was Retaliation... More blood for the cups of Valhalla!
Not adopting kidnap maybe
They don't need Lagetha for help
That's the first time iv noticed the 5 ravens for the 5 sons
Are you guys canadian? Your accent when you spoke in french reminded me of my home in Québec 😅 i just found your channel
Yep!! Born and raised in good ol' Québec :D on ne parle pas souvent français dans nos vidéos, mais quand on le fait, l'accent est dur à cacher ahah
@@kyuujinreacts oh wow! Trop contente que le Québec soit si bien représenter dans le monde des "reactions" 😍 haha je subscribe tout de suite
I think the writer dropped the plot in this episode with the raiding of Spain. They had sixty ships and all the main characters just happened to land on the same place. It would also have been more interesting to see the interaction with different cultures instead of the meaningless raiding, chaos, rape and killing of innocents. I'm especially disappointed with the portrayal of Björn. A great future was "foreseen" for him but he does not show any intelligence or qualities that made Ragnar great.
It does look like they went in another direction :/
I fully believe she refused single combat because she saw in Ivar what I saw... No, she would not kill him. Or even if, she'd also die.
Maybe that's true, but never really took Lagertha as someone who would cower in the face of death
@@kyuujinreacts No, not cower. But she knows he's no joke. His upperbody strenght is insane from dragging himself around. From a mobile position he's formidable with a sword or the like.
She would not risk it, is my bet, losing face (both if injured... or her ACUTAUL face :)
As Ivar says "You can't refuse" - and normally you can't, but she's probably allowed cause he IS a cripple.
Hands down, I'd bet on him to win 7 out of 10 fights with her.
Mosque. Sounds like Wasp, or like moss with a k at the end. One syllable.
Thanks!! :D
I know this is old asf but why didn’t you just say “mosk” lol
I know this is old asf but why didn’t you just say “mosk” lol
I don't remember exactly, but my guess is I just couldn't remember the word xD being French, sometimes my English gets lost :P
Also at the end it was Thor not only Odin. Thor is the GOD of thunder. He is considered the strongest of the viking GODS.
Its odin
@@hypello9534 Odin is not the GOD of thunder. I am talking about the very end the storm. That is not Odin that is Thor.
@@hypello9534 Thor is not happy he is angry so the storm happen with thunder and lightning and the heavy winds.
Does Ivar cutting Lagertha's left eye hold any special significance?
Please please please react to the tv show Dark
We're actually considering it for a future reaction! We have a few other shows to consider, but I'd say Dark is in the top 5 ;)
Lagertha would spank Ivar in one on one combat. Strategy or stealth battles she doesnt stand a chance.
One more thing the show messes up on is the sons last name is not lothbrok it's Ranarsson
Floki wife has lost it and need to be in a stable environment.
Mosque
Skoal for Ragnar.
When can we plan for episode 17 ?
Next Tuesday ;)
Great video ! Mais vous etes françaises ?
Canadiennes françaises :D nous venons de Québec ;)
There's no code geass reaction today? :(
Late tomorrow ;)
Yo you need to react to re zero s2 trailer
