THORFINN AND EINAR FIGHT BACK! | Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 8 Reaction

This episode hit you in the feels man!

Next episode bout to be the best episode yet

For the algorithm 👍👍👍

For those who are interested in reading along with the manga, this episode adapted the entirety of chapters 68 to 69.

In regards to the passage of time (the manga is sometimes more explicit about the dates) during this episode it’s supposed to be winter now and Lent soon (as Sverkel indicated), so it’s probably meant to be around February-March of 1016, i.e. another few months have passed since the previous episode.

A little bit of trivia, the very opening scene of the episode (where Thorfinn is staring at a child version of Einar) is an anime original addition/scene. And to be clear, child Einar in Thorfinn’s dream is just symbolic of the types of people Thorfinn used to pillage and raid as a Viking, as Thorfinn wasn’t directly involved in either of the times Einar’s village was raided in the past (the first time was done by English soldiers, and by the second time Thorfinn had already been sold into slavery as punishment for attacking Canute).

And the main reason why Thorfinn hasn't thought about his mother and sister is for the same reasons why he currently feels "empty" and without purpose.

Also if Ketil died, Thorgil wouldn't inherit the farm, Olmar would. Apparently back then it was traditional for farming families to send eldest sons off to war and then have the second sons inherit the farms.

Askeladd died years ago and still living in everyone minds rent free😭

Vinland Saga season 2 has completely blown away my expectations in a way I was not expecting, lol
