Crazy how on episode 14 Bjorn was punching a old lady and massacring a bunch of innocent people and now seeing him die make us shed tears for him. The writing on this anime is genius.
Bjorn is the quientessential viking. He embodies everything that askeladd hated about the vikings. Yet he became askeladds only friend. Its an incredible moment that really helps the complexity of both bjorn and askeladds character. Introduced as a 2 bit henchmen who was just there to get jobbed by thors, but he was much more than just that.
not the writing but the directing of the anime, in the manga it's just meh, here everything is so well done, the music, the dubbing. The studio behind this anime just made the manga shine in everyway
It’s crazy, you legit forget these characters are terrible people. You’re about to see how wild Askeladd really is, and how much Thorfinn never stood a chance.
As skilled as askeladd is. The only reason thorfinn kept on getting his ass beat is because he would fight with emotions. I’m not saying thorfinn could beat askeladd but he definitely could of done better
@@florzy thorfinn's weak point is his temper and the person that can most easily mess with that is askeladd if thorfinn fought askeladd with the same cool he did against thorkell for example he would've done much better
In a series where every episode is an example of fantastic storytelling, these next few episodes are something really special. Askeladd's VA gave the performance of the year in the next episode as far as I'm concerned. Phenomenal stuff.
One thing to think about is that thorfin has legit lived with askelad like doubble as long as with his own family, he was like 5-6 when thors died and he is like 17 now, cant imagine what that does to you mentally. (poor english my bad, not my first language)
I was blown away by the fact that Vinland saga's characters were written so well... And the way it tackles subtle themes like love, impact of religion and value of human lives....ah. Great reaction Lax🔥😂glad to see a fellow man cry. I'd recommend you react to *Promised Neverland* at least ep one
It always amuses me that people don't even bother to check the patreon to find out, since he's already done with VS and already started the new series some time ago.
I am beyond impressed that you not only understood right away that Bjorn and Askeladd were going to duel, but also the reasons why. I haven't found anyone else who picked up on that so quickly.
i dont know how you dont have millions of followers your setup is great your reactions and explainations of your emotions are phenomanal love your channel keep up the great work!!!
Just got recommended your channel somehow I love your reactions to all these shows. Great real reactions my man can't find reactions like this anywhere else. You got a new viewer keep up the good work.
I always felt that Askelad saying Byorn was his only friend wasnt just to appease him, it is completely sincere, but its also Askelad himself realizing it for the first time. He realized he had only 1 real friend at the moment he killed him. I think thats why it weighs on him so much. He was so focused on his goals and his hatred of the Danes, he never realized one of them was his best friend until it was too late.
Askeladd having to put down the only person he conisdered a friend to him, and then having to carry on without that companionship, must have been so hard.
man your reactions are literally my favorites- like i thought i was watching myself at 3:12 lmao btw would you consider reacting to one punch man? idk i feel like your reaction to that would be dope to watch lol
In the original manga the duels were fought in Gainsborough, I will never understand why they moved them to York. Not only did Askeladd specifically promise Thorfinn to duel him in Gainsborough, Bjorn would not have survived the trip to York.

@@el-fl1eo Anime is right, it's an anime-only person crying. Writing in anime and manga is not identical.

@@KittanBachika exactly why anime done right is always superior to manga
Great reaction! It's insane how well they wrote these characters, from heartless villains to crying for them by the end of the season
Indeed, imo this ep and after this ep made me love the anime... at first i was just curious a 6-7/10 anime but that changed 8-9/10 at the end.
Joshua Nicolas same. I went from “this is a pretty solid anime” to “I wouldn’t be surprised if this got anime of the year” 😭
@@JDVN7 really, I thought it was really strong all the way through
@@shyguyzx6685 me too, I love it from the beginning.
@@shyguyzx6685 it's good from the beginning but it's truly truly special the last 5-6 episodes are just I mean special no other words for it
The saddest case of “Notice me, Senpai” I’ve ever seen...
RIP Bjorn, a loyal friend

he is the va for madara uchiha, so good
Exactly, after Canute's awakening, every episode was God tier

On top of that these were the people that murdered his dad
@Trashthlete especially when you get a best friend out of it...
This episode got me too man, Bjorn's exit was too much, this show is wild
You do it again Lax, watching your reaction makes it more emotional 😭
I was blown away by the fact that Vinland saga's characters were written so well...
And the way it tackles subtle themes like love, impact of religion and value of human lives....ah.
Great reaction Lax🔥😂glad to see a fellow man cry.
I'd recommend you react to *Promised Neverland* at least ep one
Yeah Promised Neverland would be a great choice actually
@@samhoch7296 Promised Neverland would be awesome! but it's actually VERY copyright strike danger so I doubt he would do that
It always amuses me that people don't even bother to check the patreon to find out, since he's already done with VS and already started the new series some time ago.
and its only the first season. every arc of vinland is amazing
I believe he already reacted to Promised Neverland on his Patreon page.
even Bjorn's theme gets to me a little bit when I hear it now, RIP
Bjorn was a POS but damn man they wrote him so well I couldn't help but shed a tear when Askellad had to kill him.
Even before the fighting starts, lax started to cry man I love this guy 😅
Great reaction .. the last scene is one of my favorite moment in the show
I am beyond impressed that you not only understood right away that Bjorn and Askeladd were going to duel, but also the reasons why.
I haven't found anyone else who picked up on that so quickly.
Bruh... The best react channel EVER.
Luv u bro.
this ep is so memorable. It was different time back then but Bjorn has my respect. The most loyal of them all.
I'm actually really glad I found your channel, you have great reactions!
Don’t waste all of your tears just yet. 😔😭
i dont know how you dont have millions of followers your setup is great your reactions and explainations of your emotions are phenomanal love your channel keep up the great work!!!
Oooohhhhh. AyoLaxzone. Im definitely gonna be waiting like a fiend for the next couple of eps now after seeing your reaction on this one
The way Askeladd said "i'll play with you" to thorfinn shows that their duel is just too childish
Just got recommended your channel somehow I love your reactions to all these shows. Great real reactions my man can't find reactions like this anywhere else. You got a new viewer keep up the good work.

I jist finished it a few minutes ago and my man it's heart breaking !!!
This show never disappoints
Oh I might have to subscribe. The emotions are crazy in this
this right here is proof of vinland's exceptional writing
man were sadly pushing the end! great reaction
Askeladd having to put down the only person he conisdered a friend to him, and then having to carry on without that companionship, must have been so hard.

Love your reactions and your channel

Any manga readers recommend reading it or wait till season 2? If so what chapter did season 1 end off on or should I reread form the beginning?
Do you take recommendations for what anime to watch?
