I appreciate the detail you put into it man but what you said at 1:14 kind of spoiled that Ketil wasn't a great guy for me, I was only meaning the watch the first few minutes of the recap since it has been a while since I watched the first few episodes and didn't want to start from scratch. That kind of let me know he would turn into a not so great guy which ended up being true episode 19. Just a heads up, just feel like it would be better if you didn't mention that twist so early into the recap
the ones who try make olmar kill thorfinn were the guests not retainers, retainers are just dudes that were slaves on the farm but decided to stay, guests are snake's men and act as 'bodyguards'
Thank fuck i did not waste my time watching this boredom inducing season. Thanks for summing it up, will check out the third season if it ever gets made.
It’s not that it’s not good when it’s bad not action but it’s not good when there’s no action that’s why I think that the episode with Kanoot was the best in the season because it had the perfect balance
@@Apon_1010 the dialogue is incredible, the storytelling is incredible, the characters are incredible, all of it is amazing. no piece of media has made my grown ass cry more than watching thorfinn blossom into his true self and embrace his father’s ideology episode by episode. if you can’t look past the lack of action and see the incredible story unfolding before you regardless, then i pray you get better because you are missing out on something truly amazing.
Alright in defense of ketil, if you found out the president and the military were gonna come and take your property and livelihood knowing full well they setup an entrapment for the excuse, you'd probably break too. Thats why the killdozer is a hero to the common man
I see now that some 1st season watcher does not like the 2nd season. And i'm disappointed. But who am i to judge? I think the 2nd season is better because it expand more about thorfinn character. After thorfinn only purpose in life died down (killing askeladd), the question next is literally what should thorfinn do next? It just doesnt make sense for thorfinn to just goes back to war... to just goes back to fighting, especially the fact that askeladd is already dead and canute punish thorfinn by making him a slave. That is why season 2 purpose is to answer the question of what should thorfinn do next?
Second of all: The one who complain about the lack of battle scene is only seeing the surface and not considering the character real battle. Thorfinn vs his sin and past Olma vs what is need to be a real man Canute vs the viking culture And other character battle... because you know why this battle is more important? Because in the end, Action scene is only a way to tell a story. A good action might entertain the eye but why the action happen... the context behind the action scene will enrich the action scene even more. Fine ill admit it lack action but in return it giving us something important. That is *the reason* why the character throw themselve in the battle.
Haha only a bunch of kids that want Thorfin to be a killer and a soldier, the first season is only the prolog and shows his fall, the rest is about his redemption and wanting to never kill again. Season 2 is a masterpiece
I dont know I feel likes yes it makes sense someone like thorfinn could become a pacisfist and yes one king he knows from his story respecting it but in the long run it should not work but id does because of plot armor, I liked the aninme the way it showed that you can be strong as you want but time is the only one never losing either you lose to old age or you lose in battle nothing is safe and that is how the world is.
I got about about halfway through season 2 and seeing Thorfin be a shell of himself makes me really regret watching the season. Should have ended at season 1. Definitely a disappointment
I honestly watched the 99% of the season just to decide to stop after ep. 23. I was done with all the talking. I get it character development but to see thorfinn turn into a jesus like messiah was annoying considering his past. Makes sense but I don't have to watch it. Will not finish this anime. It's okay but definitely not the best that I've seen.
It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea and that’s okay. A lot of s1 viewers tuned in for s2 expecting for violence/gorey stuff like season 1, but the focus shifted to thorfinn’s journey of self-discovery, how to navigate his own life after losing his sense of purpose from season 1. He committed a lot of violence which stemmed from his hatred for askeladd in the hopes that he was able to avenge thor’s death, but now askeladd has died, what’s the purpose of keeping his angry, cruel viking persona when he could strive to be a decent person ? It’s not like he’s turned to a complete pacifist anyway, he did fight snake to fend for gardar. He’s just learning to become a proper warrior who doesn’t resort to violence every second
I really don't think that Thorfin is turning Jesus, I think that he just turns from a sinful person, to a better stronger and kinder person, like how the bad persons were redeemed by God and Jesus.
It's upon to you if u watch or not, but this series is actually different than any other series from the world, and actually this one could make you to think over the history and even to learn from our ancestors, in order to understand ourselves better.
@@ETHYSSX your right. I don’t enjoy boring shows. Character development means nothing if the rest is dull. If you enjoy it good for you. But a lot of people who like season 1 because of the action and such are going to be disappointed with season 2 and they are completely justified
dude you just save my 8+ hours watching this file of shit {i was hyped by other and watch season 1 wasted a lot of time and hoped season 2 will be better ....so dissapointed look like this type of anime is not for me }
They turned thorfin into Ghandi. What in the fuckkkkk?. Am I the only one that thinks season 2 was Sooooo fucken bleeding boring. The side characters were way more interesting than the main characters. This season would've been a masterpiece if thorfin awoken his killer instincts and mercks all them vikings in revenge for the slave girl. I hope this non-violent bullshit doesn't drag through the 3rd season 🤦
thanks for the fast recap ! i stooped at ep13 for 2 months and i was bored by it but as an anime fan i HAD to finish it so thank yooooo very much !
Haha same happened to me and wanted to pick it up but didn't remember much of the previous episodes
Literally the same but I stopped at ep14😂
Man me 2 I just finished it yesterday. It was sooo boring
You not a true fan
They were lucky asf that thorfinn was not the old him
To the point video clear voice and words ... I loved it

Just a heads up, just feel like it would be better if you didn't mention that twist so early into the recap
Just a heads up,
same situation as you
and you just haaddd to remind me when i was just foeregetting
the ones who try make olmar kill thorfinn were the guests not retainers, retainers are just dudes that were slaves on the farm but decided to stay, guests are snake's men and act as 'bodyguards'
Thank fuck i did not waste my time watching this boredom inducing season. Thanks for summing it up, will check out the third season if it ever gets made.
If you just want action in anime then u should go for them.
But don't call it boring plss
Go back to watching Naruto
Agree. People getting butt hurt should go watch Jane Austen or some shit. This was supposed to be a warrior story.
@@Mike-rt2vp it is a warriors story. A story of true warrior. You western liberals dont even know what true warrior is even if you saw one
this comment section is god awful. you guys really can’t enjoy anything if it doesn’t have action huh?
seriously all they care about is fighting
It’s not that it’s not good when it’s bad not action but it’s not good when there’s no action that’s why I think that the episode with Kanoot was the best in the season because it had the perfect balance
You actually like this ?? Lol
I’m sorry for my statement after fully watching s2 I understood how good it is honestly it’s in my top 5
@@Apon_1010 the dialogue is incredible, the storytelling is incredible, the characters are incredible, all of it is amazing. no piece of media has made my grown ass cry more than watching thorfinn blossom into his true self and embrace his father’s ideology episode by episode. if you can’t look past the lack of action and see the incredible story unfolding before you regardless, then i pray you get better because you are missing out on something truly amazing.
thx for the recap, now here I go straight to manga chapter 102
Nice recap, thank you
Alright in defense of ketil, if you found out the president and the military were gonna come and take your property and livelihood knowing full well they setup an entrapment for the excuse, you'd probably break too. Thats why the killdozer is a hero to the common man

Love the recap only thing I could use was an episode ticker somewhere
thanks for a recap
10:44 the way you said it sent me 😭
i shouldnt be laughing
That was too much 😭😭
This was indeed very helpful. Thank you.
Haha only a bunch of kids that want Thorfin to be a killer and a soldier, the first season is only the prolog and shows his fall, the rest is about his redemption and wanting to never kill again. Season 2 is a masterpiece
made it seem so more eventful
Bro you are a W RUclipsr this was definitely a good gud

Quitter
Might as well watch episode 24 😭 it’s a cute episode he meets his family again
Snake got a Muslim sword - vikings did some good trades with Arabs and Moors
They messed up my man thorfinn bru😢
and you dont seem to understand
It’s just so different from season one that it kind of ruins, the show
Than this anime's not for you it shows character development and maturity
@@ETHYSSX your right. I don’t enjoy boring shows. Character development means nothing if the rest is dull. If you enjoy it good for you. But a lot of people who like season 1 because of the action and such are going to be disappointed with season 2 and they are completely justified
I didn't think that this season would be dumber than the first, but life is full surprises.
سواقي يشبه ثورفين
Was really disappointed in season 2 after season 1
I think season one hocked all lot of people how want just fights , nothing wrong with that but maybe you don't understand it
