  • I apologize in advance I caught myself sayin “wow” way too many times 😂
    I should’ve know Thorfinn’s answer would have been to run, not my brightest moment lol The conclusion between Thorfinn and Canute was so ideal but caught me off guard I’m not even going to lie and you’ll clearly see that in my reaction. This girl was FLABBERGASTED. I tend to expect the worst in situations but glad this was not one of those moments. As for Thorfinn’s growth I’m still taken aback by it. Even during editing I still experience so many emotions and tears when it comes to this character. This show is quite spectacular indeed ❤️
    My first time reaction to a VIKING anime! Vinland Saga has been able to immerse me in its complex world of intense battles and enriching storytelling. Follow me as I continue to see what kind of man Thorfinn will become. Is season 2 the better season? WILL WE EVER REACH VINLAND? 👀 Here is my first time reaction to Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 23.

    canute used to use oppressive force to achieve his goals, since finding new allies, hes learned to trust a little better and conduct himself in better light for the people. he reduced his overall man power but this in turn showed that the people can also trust him. he will prolly be much safer now than how he was before

    Canute was controlling England through a large Danish army stationed in England and to sustain that army he needed money from sources other than English taxes so reduce the discontent among the English people that's why he was planning to seize farms from wealthy men starting from Ketil.
    Seeing so much change in that psycho killer he used to know to now, canute thought that if someone like that can be produced by Vikings then maybe he also doesn't need to govern by fear and military might. So he put trust in the English people reduced the size of the Danish army and the people recognised that trust and are trying to make it work.
    I definitely think Canute's mind wouldn't have changed it if it was any person other than Thorfinn to come talk with him and It wouldn't have worked if it was any King other than Canute there and Thorfinn knows that too.
    Essentially Thorfinn restored Canute's faith in humanity

    Vinland saga has by far one of the best OST EVER used in anime. It elevates the show to another level.
    Thank you for making it so far. It's actually funny because Canute laughing is so relatable. He has been taught to not trust anyone and be ruthless until he meets the angry kid that somehow has found peace, must be both shocking and funny for him that even Thorfinn himself has found a way. Vinland saga is GOATED!

    Canute inherited england after his father was killed by askeladd.
    His brother gave him Denmark.
    The main problem canute faced was related to financing his army.
    If he used taxes from England to fund army in Denmark,it would have given impression to Danish soldiers that canute trusts english more. As well as he's afraid of raising taxes on Danish people. This intel can be exploited by someone in Danish army and they could challenge canute's authority. And at the same time english people didn't want to bear the burden of financing canute's whole empire.
    So after having conversation with thorfinn, canute decided to slash down his expenditures on army.
    He put more trust in soldiers as well as people of denmark, And didn't seek to control them via english taxes. This had spill over effect on nobility. They realised canute is placing highest amount of faith in them so in they also responded in kind by accepting him as their king.

    In my view the relationship between Canute and Thorfinn is something like a philosophy built by two symbiotic and unequal parts. Canute's methods helps the majority of his population by persecuting and oppressing a minority to result in more people living in a higher quality of life, meaning they are getting closer to 'paradise' at the expense of the few. On the other hand Thorfinn represents the minority who are oppressed and wants to create a world for them to flee to. This is what Thorfinn means by his power being much smaller than his, because they literally are the representations of the majority vs the minority.
    So in theory as long as Thorfinn and the oppressed have a place to run to, then everyone (The majority under Canute and the minority under Thorfinn) has a place they can live comfortably and that is what building a 'paradise' means to both of them but for different reasons. Thorfinn is the other half to Canute's worldview that is outside of his control by necessity and this conversation allowed Canute the opportunity to learn that paradise can not be built by a single ideology or king, there has to be a counter balance. This is what Canute might mean by saying he has gained new allies, he now knows Thorfinn is out there building a world for the people he can not save. This results in Canute feeling the burden on his shoulders lessen since he isn't the only one building the world he wants, allowing him to take a different turn and disbanding his army instead of seizing more wealth from the citizens to pay for said army. Canute is rewarded by earning the trust of the nobility and and his authority becomes more authentic since he is becoming an accepted ruler amongst his people instead of a tyrant like his father.

    Canute was using his army to opress the people of England because he thought they would attack him.
    But he didnt have enough money for the army.
    When he downsized his army the nobles were grateful that Canute trusted them.
    Basically its better to try and build trust with your subordinates than rule with fear

    the actual final episode is actually part of the next chapter in the part , the very beginning , this episode was the end of the farmland chapter in the manga.

    In episdoe 9 thorfinn says to einar while taking oath that he has taken so many lives with his hands. Lives of people he bore no grudge against. Lives of people he didn't know names of.
    In this episode, Roald, Son of Grimm becomes the first of names and lives that thorfinn manages to protect.
    And director of episode 9 and 23 is Atsushi Kobayashi.
    Close up shots of Animations of lips, detailed expressions on face and beautiful sceneries, is generally dead give away in vinland saga that episode is kobayashi cinema.
    I hope he'll continue to work on this series in future as well. There are a number of manga chapters in next two arcs that i can imagine him directing.

    In the last scene of season 1 , three (technically 4) characters were teased. One on the banks of a river. Two climbing on an Icy Mountain and one on a boat in a sea which turned out to be Einar. The other two are still yet to appear in the anime. I can't wait to see them finally animated whenever season 3 comes.
