The dropping of the blade is so intensely powerful and the way it was animated was just *chefs kiss*
And it wasn't in the manga... A 10/10 anime original scene
@@oerwhat I love all the anime-only scenes. Season 2 has quite a few too and it makes the anime adaption feel like such a passion project
You know what gets me the most? The fact Askeladd remained quiet about who really killed Thors. Floki was right there with them in that very room. Askeladd in his dying breath could've easily revealed to Thorfinn that Floki was the one who killed Thors yet he remained quiet. Why? It's because he didn't want Thorfinn to follow another cycle of revenge chasing after another man. He wanted Thorfinn to think that he killed his father's "real killer" so that he could move on with his life to become a better man and a true warrior. In his last moment, Askeladd revealed to us what kind of a man he really was (he's not a good man by any means as remember he ordered an entire village to be killed just to save supplies for the winter for his men but he's also not the worst man ever either, he's a flawed human being just like eveyone else in Vinland Saga).
i think its more on he is at the moment and such thing doesn't matter at that time
The shot of thorfinn holding askeladd with the white background is similar to thors death scene with the white background, I think symbolizing askeladd being his father figure. Vinland saga is peak, great reaction guys
He goat
Dude, i've seen countless reactions to this episode and every single time people end up crying
That shot of askeladd and thorfinn in the white background always put a tear in my eye
@@LuisSierra42 Right? Specially guys because the father and son relationship Askeladd and Thorfinn had (even if it was way too intense some times) is something every man can relate with. Heck I'm a guy and it still makes me tear up (like legit tears in my eyes) whenever I see Askeladd's death.
@@LuisSierra42 Literally only a few episodes have ever made me cry with this one being one of them. Even among them, it is the best if not for a few from AOT/BB/HxH.
I noticed one thing. Both Thors and Askeladd died a similar death. Thors sacrificed himself to save Thorfinn and his people. Askeladd did the same thing, sacrificing himself for the sake of saving his land and people. Askelad did not say a word to Thorfinn that it was Floki who gave the order to kill Thors, and in the end, when Thorfinn rushed to help Askeladd, he told him not to interfere, thereby protecting him from death. I think Askeladd is an ideal anti-hero who died like a hero in the end.
Good point. I didn't think of the parallels between Thors and Askelaad sacrificing themselves for things more important than their own lives. That's happened to Thorfinn twice now. His actions for seeking vengeance are an affront to what Thors' sacrifice actually stood for. Askelaad basically tells him that by saying your real battle is beyond this petty squabbling for vengeance and dominion between men and countries. A rightful tribute to your father would be to fulfill a dream he had for his family and his people.
13:57 Askeladd asking this question always gets me because him dying means thorfinn has no aim or meaning left to his life. I can't wait for you guys to catch up to season 2.
Yew me too he so boerken 💔
The fact that Askeladd's initial plan was thrown into the trash the moment Sweyn mentioned Wales, and that he still managed to pull off something this meaningful from scratch is fucking amazing: Saved Wales, saved and crowned Canute, and gave Thorfinn his much needed self-realization. One of the best realistically intelligent characters in manga & anime simply because he was selfless.
@@artemisflow6658 bro really said "it's big brain time" 😂
PERFECTION. Soundtrack, story, animation, voice acting, emotion… ALL OF IT 🔥😭 Vinland saga got us crying over a bad guy who happens to be my favorite 🤌🏾 Vinland Saga is PEAK Saga
So true 😭 I love this anime a lot, it's beautiful really
PEAK SAGA YESS
I remember after episode 14 everyone hated him so much and now in ep 24 we all cry for him.
@@bando3107 hahaha that's what genius character writing looks like
@@bando3107 I never hated him tbh, Askeladd is an interesting character maybe that's why
What is amazing, and some people missed, is that Askelad became the true savior Artorius that his mother told him about. He is the Artorius that saved Wales in the end.
Askeladds by far my favorite antagonist from any show. Such a good written character.
Extremely well written. We weren’t always on his side and didn’t always love him but we were very sad when he died. It shows how well these characters are written
@@CarlieAndAnge Felt the exact same way myself!
@@CarlieAndAnge He's a lot like Silco from Arcane in that way. He was a terrible person who did terrible things but he was just so perfectly written that us in the audience can't avoid liking him.
@@UrekMazino1337 I'm actually watching monster for the first time so funny you bring him up. Only like 13 episodes in soooo far
@@UrekMazino1337 definitely enjoying it a lot so far! Still wondering how it goes on 74 episodes with this pacing lol. Also amazed they haven't tried to make a live action version considering its not full of anime action and what not, at least not yet lol
Definitely in my top 3 of finales in any show. Thorfinn dropping the blade just hits so hard. Him letting go of the past gave me hope for him as a character.
29:25 you’re right about it. That’s all that the author wants to deliver all along. He focuses on the horror of the war and hatred, how it affects and scarred people. Vinland Saga is not all about the violence but there are many valuable lessons about kindness, compassion, empathy
A moment of silence for GOATKELADD.
And Thorfinn also kind of died as well there
You mean GOATKILLDAD 😂
Askeladd shocked us all without compromising/changing who he was and that's what real about his character writing.
In the end, Askellad sacrificed himself to save not only Canute, but also his people - the Welsh. He saw that third option that could make all his goals come true... In the end he did what only a TRUE king would do. R.I.P to one of the greatest characters ever made😭🔥
It's insane how good season 1 if for a "Prologue"
Almost no other shows have this big of a build up and character development before going into the full story.
10/10 Amazing!
Berserk does it too
only other series on this level I can think of is probably Bersek
I didn’t even realize it was a prologue until I finished this episode, shit was good as hell
AOT did the prologue for 3 seasons
@@darthfloch6823 No it didn't Saying that undermines the story up until that point, because it wasn't designed that way. If you wanna add a prologue for categorization's sake, then consider season 1 episode 1-4 the prologue.
If peak fiction was an episode, you just watched it.
Askalad is an absolute legend. went out like a boss. loved and died by his cause. he will be missed
Askeladd was like a father to Thorfinn in the end. At first he wanted to kill him more than anything, but as years passed Thorfinn changed. I mean he spent a lot more time with Askeladd than his real father
End of Prologue, now the real fight begins.
What I love is how Askeladd rekindled Thorfinn's life purpose, his real purpose that his father had for him. He doesn't need to do that, Askeladd did a lot of good things he doesn't need to do, he's obviously evil and not a good person. But him always doing some good here and there while somehow in doing that it doesn't seem out of character is the reason why he's such a damn good character.
Askeladd is one of my favorite characters of all time
I don't usually cry at watching stuff, but i bawled like a baby during this episode. Askeladd's death was amazing.
This episode is truly epic. This episode is just... chilllssss. As a manga reader, especially the very end where you see "a bunch of randos" haha
Absolutely. Seeing them animated gave me the chills
@@mr.reverse7399 Honestly, I remeber when it came out and the afterscene played with all the "randos", I looked at my brother and said "no fucking way..." so cold
@@TheNatural0215 I got so excited 😭
The blond girl is named Hild, the long black haired girl is Gundrid and than Einar in the boat. All charachters will be later on the show
Peakland saga. Askeladd is the goat
Keep in mind that Askeladd is wearing roman attire.
Even this didnt get to Angelo. Nothing can take him down
It did lmao! Couldnt stop thinking about this episode for days
@@CarlieAndAnge Yeah I could see you loved it but I had a reaction like Carlie where I shed a tear for Askeladd. But you're like a rock bro 😄😁
"King Slain" I'm dead
And so is he
I had so much fun going through this series with you. Really enjoyed the discussion part as well. I can't wait for your reactions for season 2. It's a BANGER.
I always cry when I see this episode, but not for the death of Askeladd, but because I know how feels the frustration of losing several years of your life and looking for "revenge" against someone who made you so much damage and at the end, not being able to get it and lose your opportunity forever. Buuuuuut, well, this show is teaching me to move forward even if that feelings never go away, but changing the POV and forging a new mindset. I love Vinland Saga, and I hope you enjoy the second season as much as this season
The story is indeed life-changing.
This episode always gets me. Askeladd got to be the hero his mother always dreamed of.
MAN This sure hits hard after done reading the manga
Oh is the manga completed? I was reading it inbetween my daily work breaks back in 2020 and have stopped since. Got quite far into the story.
@@SomeOne-wr1wr It's not done yet. I think we still have a few more years left
What u saw at the end, after Thorfinn drop the blade, are sequences from season 3, Eastern Expedition Arc, I realized now, after seeing season 2.
Now the real vinland saga is about to start , personally season 1 was in my top 20 but season 2 is so freaking good now it's in my top 3 , season 1 may be 10/10 but season 2 is definitely ∞/10 each episode is a masterpiece a pure diamond , I'm looking forward to see your reaction for Season 2

@@erenyaeger2320 ptsd right now
@@erenyaeger2320 oh it was on my watch list , well thanks for the recommendation I'll start it this week
yeah you guys need credit for how great you two reacted to this show - I love how you bounce concepts and ideas off eachother and the chemistry you both have is 10/10. Can't wait for you both to catch up in season 2
i really appreciate your reaction on this anime, i really loved every episode's analysis / discussion =)
I’m so excited to rewatch season 2 with you 😊😊
Such a wholesome story of domestic violence and slavery
"that was some good shit" while in tears perfectly describes my vinland saga experience
Omggg yall finally reached the finale ❤❤❤❤
i cried a lot when the sea scene appear with a dramatic music. it hits me
So I recently binged this again as a refresher so I could watch all of your reactions. I love this story, because it fills the time between two of my favorite swedish novels, Röde Orm (The Long Ships) by Bengtson, and the Crusader trilogy by Jan Guillou. But the perspective of the average people trying to escape the suffering and misery of their world is so good in this series!
been waiting for this, it was such a well rounded season and it just keeps getting better and better after this
absolutely love this episode. i can't help but cry like carlie every time i watch it lmao. btw those characters at the end are future characters you haven't seen yet.
Been waiting all day for this!
Lucius Artorius Castus is a roman name, he's suposo to be the last true roman heir of britannia
This episode is the reason I truly believe that there was more than rage holding Thorfinn back from killing Askeladd. The gentle way he catches Askeladd as he falls after being stabbed, and the urgency with which he called the man's name, and Askeladd's speech about where Thorfinn should go from here all point to the fact they did not see each other purely as enemies.
I know I am a year late, but I couldn't leave without sharing my thoughts. Stellar reaction!🎉🎉🎉🎉
been waiting since you started for this ❤
We need more of this 👏👍🏼
That scene at 13:51.. hits too hard if you remember they used it when Thors died, Thorfin refusing to let go literally and figuratively to his fatherly figures
Also, if you recall, Askeladd asked Thors to become their leader (Askeladd's men) before he killed him, and then laughed it off as a joke. But part of him, when he asked that, was actually quite serious. He saw what a brilliant man Thors was, but at the end of the day, he couldn't look weak in front of his men. Obviously, later on in the season, that leader that he wanted Thors to be for them was taken by Canute.
Istg, among all the shows I've watched (not just anime), this episode is definitely one of the best. *Very strong season finale.* 10/10
All the people at the end were characters we haven't yet, meaning future seasons 2 onward
"King Slain". Bruh lmao.
Well done you finished the prologue
It's so funny that Knud become "Canute" in the English sub. Is Knud that hard to say for Emglish speakers?
bro really said "you talking mad shit for someone in sword range"
Season 2 is the greatest of all !! Can't wait for the reactions 🤧!
Spolier:
OMG when you watch episode 9 in season 2 you get what Aselado meant by "Go to where Thor went don't get stack in this bloody place its your real fight". I love this kind of writing
If you think about it, Thorfinn spent more time with Askeladd than Thors.
I cried my eyes out in this ep, RIP Askeladd he did win at the end 😭💔 poor Thorfinn tho, to me he lost another father figure that gave him a purpose even tho it was all hate and for revenge and to me the last scene when Thorfinn throw the dagger it looked like he was trying to reach for Askeladd one more time and when he told Askeladd "we need to hurry and run away" I feel like he wanted to take Askeladd with him to Vinland with Lief 😭😭💔 love your reaction to S1 and can't wait for S2 with you guys, wishing Carlie a speedy recovery again ❤️
Remember when Askelad said to Thors, "this will never end unless you kill me" personification on a whole new level
Such a fantastic season finale. Cant wait for you two to start season 2!
thorfin doesnt know how to cope well with emotions, he didnt get much social development because the formative years of his childhood were taken from him. in my opinion, thorfins angry facade at askeladds death is him being angry at himself for feeling upset. he feels like he lost a second father, and he doesnt know why; hes confused, sad, lost, and doesnt know how to cope with it so just reverts to shouting. everything suddenly taken from him again
oh wow, I haven't seen you guys for a while
The finale episode is a masterpiece, deserves a standing ovation. The dropping of the blade is such a great symbolism. The OST, Somewhere Else, is by far my favorite OST. The scene where Thorfinn is being dragged away signifies him being dragged away from his past life and into a new one greatly parallels to an important character from S2 (during the last scenes of S2 Ep1).
It would really be wonderful if you try to react to anime called "MONSTER", it's a mystery psychological thriller anime and both story writing and character writing are top-tier. I just finished reading the manga and such a masterpiece. I would really love to see your reaction and in depth analysis to the characters. 😊
Some people try living as a hero, only to see themselves become the villain, but here was a man, askeladd, who chose to live as a villain, who we all saw become a hero. The hero artorius that his mother was waiting For. Lucius artorius castus, The one covered in ashes. ya'll may think im flanderizing these fictonal characters like any hardcore animartard fans but no, i seriously think it is not a stretch to claim that askeladd is one of the top contenders for the greatest antagonist in the history of fiction.
Rest in peace,The king of Britannia, Lucius Artorius Castus,you will be remembered 😔
What this shows does brilliantly is showing how we are often by-products of our environment. And in doing so doesn’t glorify it, but rather shows the understanding that sometimes people are forced to commit acts they don’t want to carry out. And how easy it is to accept those vile actions. What makes a person bad or evil, call it what you want. Is not the act itself but rather when we come to see it as okay and acceptable. Askeladd is the perfect example of a man who hated everything about the world he lived in, but knew he had to become like those he hated in order to get justice for his mother and people. Easily one of the best written characters of all time.
that was some good shit indeed carlie
well on to season 2:D
Season 2 LESS GOOO
The characters at the end there were a teaser. They are new important characters
askleadd killing the king was red wedding type of moment
Thorfinn's journey on becoming a true warrior begins.
Askeladd might not be my favorite character from season 1...but is for sure my favorite character from season 1 lol😅.
bro you good? tf you mean
Huh?
@@dungeonashu2987 hate to love him, love to hate him. I don't know how I really feel 😢😂
@@HeyzusdaGod i get your point
ahh yes time to see the kind and wholesome king canute will become and we’ll see just how much he loves his older brother 😁
Askeladd's death still hits hard.
10/10 analysis
Season 2, let's goooo🌾🌾🌾
The fact that he dropped the blade and reached out with his fingers to Askeladds body.... Im not fucking okay
The people in the last scene is people Thorfinn will meet in the future guys
Waiting for this upload.
Also hype up for jjk season 2 reaction when it comes.
👍Take care.
This ep is one of the highest rated eps of all time for a reason
Nah that's one of the best series of the year for me, can't wait for the reaction at the second season
Favourite anime, Favourite season finale
Season 2 is even better
Askeladd cares about Thorfinn and vice versa for sure. You can't live with someone for 11 years and not care. Their relationship is like Walt and Jesse. Askeladd cared but he had grand plans and those plans weighed more than his care for Thorfinn.
Love this anime
My boy askeladd bro 😭😭😭😭😭
As a character Askeladd is one of the best in anime but I just can feel sad for him his the antagonist of this season a very cruel and bad person
I feel sad and cry for thorfinn at the end of the day askeladd was a father figure to thorfinn that's how tough his story is
The man that killed his father through thorfinn eyes was the closest thing he had to a father figure until askeladd died he never realized
His VA is so good
I was in so much denial the first time I watched this episode. When Canute said "Let him run wild for a bit. I'll let you put it to an end", in my head I was like "Oh he means hold him. Canute just wants Thorkell to hold him. Askeladd is gonna be fine." RIP the GOAT.
My take away is life has a funny mysterious way of forcing us to grow, of teaching us lessons What I'm trying to say is that this anime resonates to my experience as a purposeless teen to a grown ass adult. love it.
9:15 “oirrr noiirrr”
Opening and ending reaction
as long as you're alive, you can start over...
Carlie: "Thorfinn is walking towards his freedom. I hope he'll be elated next season."
Season 2: "Yeah, about that..."
(Now the really good stuff begins!)
"Who are these randos?" Hey thats not nice lol, we just havent met them yet
10/10 reaction for a 10/10 episode
VINLAND SAGA REALLY IS THE PEAK ANIME AND THIS IS JUST THE PROLOGUE
S2 is kinda off
@@ferhatmez3955 explain. And if you gonna say "its boring because of no action" Im gonna sack you
