The official script had different lines, but I knew how much this EXACT WORDING meant to fans/the impact of the manga panel. I spoke w/ the director & she allowed me to me rewrite this whole scene. So this one’s for all the VINLAND SAGA fans :)
So for anyone who doesn't know, in Japanese the word "invincible" is written like 無敵 (muteki). But it could also be interpreted as "no enemies", 無 (mu: nothing / void) and 敵 (teki: enemy). It's a cool interpretation because if you don't have any enemies -> there's noone who would want to defeat you -> thus you're invincible.
if anything the fact this does not exist in English makes the message even stronger You do not need to be invincible You simply need to stop seeing others as enemies
This might sound cringe, but this moment genuinely changed my life. Never I would’ve thought an anime would have such a profound impact on my conscious.
I said it on Twitter, and I’ll say it here. You're so phenomenal at your job. I mean that with every fiber of my being; you're nothing short of an inspiration to me, and it's seeing clips like these that get me fired up to become a voice actor, too.

You’re the best version of thorfinn. No disrespect to the other talented thorfinn VAs, but your voice is so much more powerful. I resonate with every single word you say!
Seeing how much you’ve grown as an actor from the first movie role you did to this is honestly so inspiring. It’s a testament to how hard you’ve worked at your craft. Kudos brother.
I don't mind script changes as long as the original meaning is still intact and there's a good reason for it im totally a-okay with it. This was a superb job my man!
The poster/VA commented on another comment and said the script was originally, "You guys are not my enemies. I have… no enemies here”. Which doesn't seem like a big difference but can be interpreted differently. Saying, "here" makes it sound like he has enemies somewhere else. Doing it this way drives home the point stronger that he has NO enemies, and has fully realized and mastered what his father was trying to teach him.
I think it's that, the original meaning in Japanese doesn't translate as well in spoken form, so in spoken English it can be interpreted differently. But idk, I don't speak Japanese or fully understand it's culture (culture differences strongly affect interpretations of spoken interactions) but reading the sub, this feels right. Saying "here", just doesn't seem right. The OP/VA says themselves neither the... director? liked the way the script was originally written.
Wait, you were the genius behind this dubbing? I’m blown away😭😭 You single handedly took every bit of Thorfinn’s personality and manifested it into what is a clear love letter to the series, so thank you for bringing the very character that change me as a person for the better with your talents and skills🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥
I literally heard the sentai dub and I was like bruh is this alex's voice? It doesnt sound right. Then I heard this one and I got sudden chills. Maybe because he actually sounds out of breath and injured plus the weight and the delivery of his lines was fantastic! man is the goat! :D
Sentai Dub (Crunchyroll) : "I have... no enemies at all". VSI Dub (Netflix) : Because... I have no enemies. Such an iconic line in the Netflix version Im glad Aleks got it in.
I was so happy when the rest of the season in dub came out. This was one of my favorite scenes in the season. Good job Aleks. Your acting was amazing that it tugged on my heartstrings. You have done a phenomenal job voicing Thorfinn in both seasons. So happy I watched this amazing show in dub.
Christ is it cringe to say that this season of Vinland Saga legitimately made me want to become a better man ? Cuz Thorfinn’s words were all I needed to hear to think that. Still brings a god damn tear to my eye every time I hear it.
OH thank god this version of the dub is out. Been itching to discuss Season 2 on a podcast, but my friend wants to watch the dub version he watched S1 with, and that's you guys! Now he can watch it and we can finally talk about this BEST SEASON EVER! Thanks Aleks!
Your acting is phenomenon. How you portray Thorfinn was my introduction to the series, and I can't picture anyone else in the roll. From his anger to when Einar yelled him to pray louder, your range of emotion is incredible
I'm not even going to watch this because I'm a no-spoilers kinda gal but I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF SEASON 2 THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMAZING WORK ON THIS SHOW!!! :D
Personally I think the simple statement works better as an echo and full circle moment of Thors' philosophy than a wordier delivery. I'm glad you were able to convince production to go with this version.
I just heard you talk about this scene in the Trash Taste podcast about how you were adamant about making the line faithfully original to the scene regardless of the lip flaps, and I have to say how awesome it is to not only hear about your passion behind the scenes of the recording, but how well it also came out! Keep up the great work man!
Dude you’re his VA for Netflix? My sister and I literally waited the extra time for the Netflix dub to come out before we continued. The Crunchyroll dub is great but the Netflix dub and especially _your_ acting was way too good to pass on, we were happy to wait so we could experience one of the best dubs in history. What a phenomenal job
I didn’t exspect to start my monday with peak but i’m glad i did, aleks u have truly done an outstanding job with This role. I hope u continue to Play thorfinn in the future cause you truly are amazing as him, thank you from the buttom of my heart for playing thorfinn
I haven't seen Vinland Saga so I heard about this from Trash Taste. You really found a way to make the line work, and it hits home. Adding it to my watch list. It inspires me to keep practicing!
Oh wow, you pulled that off immaculately! The intensity of that scene was just as well performed in English as in the original Japanese dub. Well done Aleks!
ALEKS YOU ARE THORFINN??? I discovered you through demon slayer and i just binged persona 3, been following your work for so long. Now here you are as my ultimate favorite. speechless
So many people have wronged me in my entire life and had this pent up anger, then Thorfin comes along and made me forgive them even they didn't ask for forgiveness.
Man, you must upload the 100 punches scene complete, even with this I have no enemies scene, to listen you pretty well, because you made a magnificent job with the son of Thors, Thorfinn
Ill say it again, Aleks i will appreciate the work you put on the characters i see come to life, be it Thorfinn, Luke and Mash Burndead, you, Blum and Alejandro Saab are what made me strive to trying out voice acting. So, ypur awesome at what you do.
This is an amazing performance, on par with original And thank you for insisting on doing this the way fans wanted, it also means that the fans that who only watched dub can experience it like others!
When I started Vinland Saga, I almost dismissed it as a edgy revenge story, I wasn't really interested at first, but the voice acting and animation kept me going, and I was pretty hooked by the end of season 1, then.. I got all the way to here, and I cried, I haven't cried because of a anime in a long time but this one really hit me hard. Thorfinn's journey is Shakespeare and will be engraved in my heart forever. Thank you @AleksLe this is as much your victory as everyone else's
The official script had different lines, but I knew how much this EXACT WORDING meant to fans/the impact of the manga panel. I spoke w/ the director & she allowed me to me rewrite this whole scene. So this one’s for all the VINLAND SAGA fans :)
Somehow I knew that’s what happened and I’m grateful you had it happen like this
Aleks Le being an absolute W bro.
thx homie
you the goat bro🐐🐐
Did you threaten to take them to Memphis?

Gives a Miyamoto Mushishi vibe

You do not need to be invincible
You simply need to stop seeing others as enemies
@@ketchuptomatoes122 you mean Musashi?
@@sqeekeezthehamster1116 yes
Mugen means void but yeah the word that stands for Mu is from Mugen
Aleks, you are a real one for fighting for this one. A true warrior.
Tbh I knew about all the memes around this line too & I just had to get it right for those as well LMAO
@@AleksLe ah yes memes the DNA of the soul
A meeting of meme lords
Honestly this version of “I have no enemies” was better than we got for the sentai dub
That’s what I’ve been telling everyone
So weird that there are two dubs
The Netflix dub is better all around, from what I've seen.
@@100organicfreshmemes5 agreed
@@100organicfreshmemes5not really for me it’s 50 50 for both dubs
This might sound cringe, but this moment genuinely changed my life. Never I would’ve thought an anime would have such a profound impact on my conscious.
Awesome
Mine too. This and berserk and vagabond too all had huge impact. But Vinland S2 is above all
I mean, any art could have a large impact on you if you let it
nah ong
@invincible4u knk?
I said it on Twitter, and I’ll say it here. You're so phenomenal at your job. I mean that with every fiber of my being; you're nothing short of an inspiration to me, and it's seeing clips like these that get me fired up to become a voice actor, too.
Thanks so much! That really means a lot to hear :)
you are an absolute legend!
@@AleksLe
You could say... you're Pumped Up Style: Savage Tornado.
I'm really glad you visited the boys in Trash Taste
He truly had a crazy upbringing!
This is literally me when i have no enemies
so true when i have no enemies im like i have no enemies cuz i got no enemies so true

Back from a Trash Taste episode with you as a guest, you really did this line so fucking well it gave me shivers. Noice

very impressed with how realistically you conveyed that he is speaking without being able to breathe through his nose very well.
You NAILED IT ALEKS!!
Thanks for bringing Thorfinn to life in such an important moment! 🔥🔥💖💖
I rewatch this so often. One of the greatest dub performances for one of the greatest scenes in fiction.
I literally heard the sentai dub and I was like bruh is this alex's voice? It doesnt sound right. Then I heard this one and I got sudden chills. Maybe because he actually sounds out of breath and injured plus the weight and the delivery of his lines was fantastic! man is the goat! :D
Sentai Dub (Crunchyroll) : "I have... no enemies at all".
VSI Dub (Netflix) : Because... I have no enemies.
Such an iconic line in the Netflix version Im glad Aleks got it in.
I watched the Crunchyroll version. Now I'm going to watch the Netflix version
You made the “I have no enemies” line a delivery, Vinland Saga is my favorite anime and peak fiction.
Good work man! Genuinely, you’re amazing. One of the best voice actors in the industry
I was so happy when the rest of the season in dub came out. This was one of my favorite scenes in the season. Good job Aleks. Your acting was amazing that it tugged on my heartstrings. You have done a phenomenal job voicing Thorfinn in both seasons. So happy I watched this amazing show in dub.
I just got done watching the entire dub, you and and all the other VA's did great work. Especially this scene alone.
This whole season has helped me have a different outlook on life for the better. I’m grateful for this show.
Christ is it cringe to say that this season of Vinland Saga legitimately made me want to become a better man ?
Cuz Thorfinn’s words were all I needed to hear to think that. Still brings a god damn tear to my eye every time I hear it.
nothing wrong with that.
Its not cringe, becoming a better person is based
Right decision
Wanting to become a better person is much better than idolizing men like Patrick Bateman, Joker, Homelander, Tyler Durden, etc.
Chluke cookin on Vinland Saga as always. Good job man, keep it up.
So glad this line was said. Perfectly fits Thorfinn
Ain’t no way this brought tears to my eyes, great delivery Aleks👏 I’m glad you fought to ensure the line was delivered this way
OH thank god this version of the dub is out. Been itching to discuss Season 2 on a podcast, but my friend wants to watch the dub version he watched S1 with, and that's you guys! Now he can watch it and we can finally talk about this BEST SEASON EVER! Thanks Aleks!
Yeess.
Let him PREACH!
LET HIM COOK🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have just seen the video of u saying beast mode baby in front of the store and then u drop this
Aleks le is just straight up goated man. This is Our VA right here!
The people's man!
See you in Memphis one day buddy.
You're amazing dude you didn't adlib just because you want to, you adlib because you want to give this scene a "justice"
THATS WHY HE’S THE GOAT❗️
THE GOAT‼️
Your acting is phenomenon. How you portray Thorfinn was my introduction to the series, and I can't picture anyone else in the roll.
From his anger to when Einar yelled him to pray louder, your range of emotion is incredible
Some of the best voice acting I’ve heard from a show. Great work
thank you for standing up for what makes vinland special.
I'm not even going to watch this because I'm a no-spoilers kinda gal but I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF SEASON 2 THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMAZING WORK ON THIS SHOW!!! :D
Aleks is so good and has so much potential, I hope he becomes a voice actor one day 🥰
Came from the podcast. Love your work and dedication dude.
Chills. Utter chills.
This might've been the best dubbed scene I've ever seen from anime. This was amazing
You officially been appointed the greatest dub va of today
Shoulda thrown in a “SAND BLAST!” at the end 😂
But seriously though this is phenomenal. Props to you for fighting so hard for this Aleks.
Personally I think the simple statement works better as an echo and full circle moment of Thors' philosophy than a wordier delivery. I'm glad you were able to convince production to go with this version.
I didn't know you were playing Thorfinn this season! FInally, a reason to watch dubbed anime.
He played Thorfinn in S1 as well, but only on the Netflix dub. The whole two dubs thing is confusing for most people too.
I just heard you talk about this scene in the Trash Taste podcast about how you were adamant about making the line faithfully original to the scene regardless of the lip flaps, and I have to say how awesome it is to not only hear about your passion behind the scenes of the recording, but how well it also came out!

Thank you, Aleks. 😊
I was literally like...... "c'mon c'mon..... Say the word! SAYYY THEE WORDDDDD!!"
He finally said it.. such a simple phrase and it gave me a full body goosebumps
I have no words for how amazing this is. Thank you for working hard on this 💜
Amazing acting Aleks!
ALEKS YOU ARE THORFINN??? I discovered you through demon slayer and i just binged persona 3, been following your work for so long. Now here you are as my ultimate favorite. speechless
So many people have wronged me in my entire life and had this pent up anger, then Thorfin comes along and made me forgive them even they didn't ask for forgiveness.
"You don't have enemies. The truth is, that nobody has them. Nobody in this entire world deserves to get hurt."
Chills ran down my spine. And i just watched this scene in sub. VINLAND SAGA THE GOAT
Binged this version and this has had great impact on my life
honestly I live by those words. its good for the soul

the reformed sociopath is the best archetype in fiction
I have no enemies, guys
Damn great work on this dub! It's fantastic.
That gave me goosebumps, HOLY SHIT
This is so great, thanks for doing this!
Bro's real for this.

My name is Alejandro
"einar, i am the vinland saga, and imma bout to end the war"
that means no one here is my enemy.. because..
WE'RE ALL GOING DOWN.. TO MEMPHIS
Big fat chills i really need to start reading vinland again
YOU DID IT, YOU MAGNIFICENT SON OF THORS
This is an amazing performance, on par with original
And thank you for insisting on doing this the way fans wanted, it also means that the fans that who only watched dub can experience it like others!
uemura gave one of the strongest vocal performances of all time, and yours stacks up pretty well. nice work
1:07 didn't think this line would give me chills in the English Dub.
Netflix really nailed the dub so well compared to the Sentai one
Compare the S with an H hehehehehehe
Chills bro just sheer chills
When I started Vinland Saga, I almost dismissed it as a edgy revenge story, I wasn't really interested at first, but the voice acting and animation kept me going, and I was pretty hooked by the end of season 1, then.. I got all the way to here, and I cried, I haven't cried because of a anime in a long time but this one really hit me hard. Thorfinn's journey is Shakespeare and will be engraved in my heart forever.
Thank you @AleksLe this is as much your victory as everyone else's
This....this is magnificent.
Damn the ending sounds so much better than the other eng dub. Well done
Had to put a hand on my chest and I almost cried.
Chills
Le really pulling through in trying to redeem the english dubbing scene
An example as to why you’re one of my favorite voice actors.
I wonder how the anime watchers anticipating "I forgive You Thorfinn", that scene literally i have no enemies but thousand times stronger
I won't lie the original "I have no enemies at all." line didn't hit as hard as this one.
Swear to god, this right here... IS PEAK VA WORK!
the superior dub
ALEKS BOUTA HIT 200K SUBS!!
That guy is Dr. Tenma 100 %
THANK YOU ALEKS 💪🤯😭
Don't understand why people love this. It's a basic speech with a deep voice.
