Vinland Saga (2019–2023)
10/10
Astonishing
24 June 2023
I found the first season shortly after it finished airing because I heard so it was also made by Wit and having such a good impression about AoT i thought I might give it a try. Let me say that I devoured those episodes, I couldn't move from the chair and I think I saw all of the season in a day and half. It was astonishing, Thors, Thorfinn, Askeladd, Floki, Canute. Such complex and interesting characters, i had to wait 3 years for season 2 but it was such a worthwhile wait.

Season 2 is about redemption, re-discovery, pain, loss, hope, despair, sadness, happiness and a whole other carousel of emotions. The journey is simply incredible, the horrors that mankind can inflict on each other and yet even after we realize them we still end up in this vicious circle. Can a man outrun his past? I don't know, but i can't wait to see Thorfinn's next adventures. The animation, voices, and music are perfect. I just wish Crunchyroll would stop censoring limbs and other gore stuff. Respect the creators work, don't censor them.

Also, both the opening themes do such a fantastic job of expressing the feelings i had for both parts of the season, incredible songs. It might not be as hyped as AOT, jjk or Demon slayer, but the story in Vinland Saga far surpasses them, it is simply a must watch.
