I’VE NEVER LOST IT LIKE THIS | Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 18 Reaction

by MOEPP



There are very few times where I have completely lost my composure and all sense of control like this but WITH WHAT WENT DOWN THIS EPISODE it makes sense. Vinland Saga has always been brutal and real but this hurt me on a whole other level. Ketil’s actions towards Arnheid in response to her trying to escape. I HATE HIM WITH ALL I AM!! I’m so angry, mad, furious! And my heart has broken over and over again for Arnheid. Make it stop, she’s been through too much.

As a manga reader, when you said "what if she's already lost the baby" i was like damn you aint ready for the whooping Ketil about to do to arnheid :((

Capuli Juaquin May 9, 2023 - 7:38 am

I wonder if ketil is going to kill his father this time , he sell his first love to protect the farm and now he helped arnheid to escape.

Steely Don May 9, 2023 - 12:51 pm

"he kinda lost everything hahaaha" fukin women and their disdain for us the second we trip, never forget it guys

thefriendliest May 9, 2023 - 1:03 pm

Ketil didn't deserve all this

Red Devil Axel May 9, 2023 - 1:04 pm

Just to play the devil's advocate here Mai, so Thorfinn deserves a second chance at life despite being a murderer of countless innocent people and yet you want Ketil dead bcz of one bad moment for the first time in his life despite being kind and fair to everyone else until now. What about the innocent guests who died bcz of Arnhied's action? What about their families and children? If Thorfinn and Arnhied deserve a second chance, then so does Ketil don't you think?

Kristoffer May 9, 2023 - 1:14 pm

MAPPA did not hold back at all holy shit

Man poor Arnheid. Literally one of the strongest female characters I've ever seen

Sahar May 9, 2023 - 2:33 pm

The scene with Arnheid and Ketil. Like I forget when was the last time some scene in any anime made me this angry (my blood was legit boiling) and uncomfortable. This was hard to watch. The way it was directed, the sound design, the music and the voice acting by Arnheid and Ketil's voice actors made this scene tough to witness. And this was pretty realistic (as much I hate to say it) because actual slave owners in our world would in fact do horrible stuff like this or something even more worse.

Poor Arnheid 😢. I feel absolutely horrible for her (specially after she lost Gardar in the previous episode). And Ketil (I do see why he turned out like this as fragile men like him who can lose their minds when loads of bad stuff or even bad luck happens to them so MAYBE I can sympathize with him a tiny 0.0001% bit), he turned out to be one of the most horrible characters of all times not just in this show, but in anime general.

It's often said some of the most kindest and humble people can turn out to be some of the most horrible and fake people. Perfect definition for Ketil.

Kyogirl May 9, 2023 - 2:58 pm

Arnheid character is well written and needed for us to see the character development of Ketil. And like what Askeladd said this stupid old man was a slave to his possession and pride. Yes he got scarred by his past but this action could not be justified. Ever. Arnheid did not consent to anything that had happened to her.

He was not a good man given the fact he was acquiring slaves. Remember Ylva when she asked his father Thors to buy a slave he said that’s not how they lived. Thors was a good man this one was pure selfish.

Tasnim Shahid May 9, 2023 - 3:51 pm

to be fair, he wouldn't snap at Arnheid if king hadn't plot to take over Ketil's farm. Canute did light up the fire of Ketil and no matter how much we all liked Arnheid, she practically deserved it if not worse. Slaves by that time would've been either mentally unstable or dead or commit su**de. Let's not forget they all are still his slaves and Ketil showed too much mercy and kind to them which made Arnheid's betrayal much worse.

RATTY May 9, 2023 - 4:21 pm

Amazing reaction, i love you

気持ち 悪い May 9, 2023 - 4:54 pm

Watching this was extremely tough for me. My mother has been a domestic abuse victim and I remember my father beating her as a child. Thankfully, my father is divorced from my mother and we are living happily now. But this scene really triggered me a lot. Fuck Ketil

スズキチョコ助 May 9, 2023 - 5:13 pm

Please review it again from Ketil's point of view

Emre Demirkılıç May 9, 2023 - 5:23 pm

Sneak is living now? I think that Sneak is dead .

Cegesh May 9, 2023 - 6:51 pm

Ketil was pretty much (almost) every "holy" man ever in this episode.

Mohammed Mbega May 9, 2023 - 6:52 pm

Do you like Thorfinn? Because you do realize he is a mass murderer right? How many orphans do you think he's produced? How many men, women and children do you think he has killed? How do you know none of the women were pregnant at the time? How many people do you think he's helped turn into slaves? Why is he any more likable than Ketil despite having committed far worse crimes? Oh that's right, because he's the main character all is forgiven right?

What about Canute who killed his own brother who was kind to him and loved him all so he could amass more power? And don't forget he plans to do what he's about to do to Ketil to every other famer and land owner in Denmark. Forcefully take all of their property leaving them destitute which will most likely result in them ending up as slaves. Literally no one in this show is a good person, not even Arnheid. Don't forget she is the reason all this shit happened in the first place.

-She went to go see Gardar even when she was told not to.

-She was the reason Gardar made the impulsive decision to kill one of the guards which led to her being forced to free him so that they wouldn't both die.

-Which then resulted in more of Snake's men dying by Gardar hands.

-Which led to Thorfinn And Einar being dragged into the situation to try and bail her out.

-All those deaths and chaos could have been avoided if she had simply stayed put and "weathered the storm."

Please stop being hypocrites when it comes to the standards you use to judge characters. Also remember that the time period they're in slavery is a way of life. Stop applying modern moral standards to a time period where they don't apply. Stop allowing your personal attachment towards a character blind you from seeing the greater context of the situation. All that it does is showcase your immaturity and lack of nuanced/critical thinking. The fact that you can't recognize Ketil situation and even attempt to empathies with him shows your biases as clear as day.

Also, Arnheid is his slave. As in his property. The same way you own your car, phone, clothes etc. that's her situation. She is his property. By that definition he's free to do whatever he wants with her, even end her, just as snake said. In addition, don't give me some moral argument about how slavery is wrong and what he did was wrong and blah blah blah. I already know and agree, no duh slavery is wrong. Of course him beating a pregnant woman like that is horrific and terrible. But I'm looking at it from the lens, and therefore moral standards, of the Vikings time period and not my own 21st century modern standards. In their time period killing people for wealth, sport or conquest was completely acceptable. In fact you were expected to aspire to die in battle otherwise your life was seen as worthless. Can you say that applies today?

As a manga reader seeing it with a cold mind now Ketil makes me sad, it is very sad to see how a good man can break thanks to the pressure that the world can put on him

lycan May 9, 2023 - 7:30 pm

she deserved to get her ass beat. poor ketil.

lycan May 9, 2023 - 7:44 pm

typical female thinking with emotions. "i hate him bla bla bla" like try to think from ketil's perspective and how arnheid costed his men's death etc. and betraying him while ketil provided food security everything. B*tch deserved to get her ass whooped if not worse.

stalwart tea kettle Potato May 9, 2023 - 9:51 pm

Ketil is getting way to much hate.
His actions are immoral and evil but they are also entierly understandable. From his perspective he just learnd that the King is coming to take everything he has only to return home and find out that the one person he trusted betrayed him. Remebre that he is living in a world in which slavery is entrily normal and he is an exceptionally good master to his slaves. Can you blaming for falling to his wrath in such a situation.

Most people, including you, would do the same in his place.

Re_Tomori May 9, 2023 - 10:04 pm

im not gonna say what he did was justified, but the way he was feeling at the moment was absolutely justified, old man treated his slaves well, payed his taxes and even gave gifts to the previous king and canute to maintain a good relationship with the crown, man did everything the right way and then suddenly everything he worked so hard for is about to be taken away from him, and above all that, the only person he truly believed betrayed him, he could have just punch her once, like I said, not good what he ended up doing, but every bad thing that could happen to Ketil, happened, so in the state his mind was, I'm not surprised he almost killed her.

3:37 glitch in the matrix. OtakuMai is AI confirmed.

秀秀 May 10, 2023 - 7:35 am

ここまで観て来た貴方ならご存じでしょうが、ケティルは元々温厚な人柄です。
働き者で、法を守り、他者に優しく、奴隷へ温情を持つ人間。
(その様な人は、えてして他者もそうあるべきと考える場合があります)
そんな彼を2つの裏切りが襲いました。
クヌートによる農場接収と、アルネイズの裏切りです。
共に、彼の思惑とは全く関係ない所で勝手に進んでしまった事です。
クヌートの件が無ければ、ケティルもここまで暴力に走らなかったかも知れません。
この二つの事が重なってしまった。
スヴェルケルが言った様に、運が無かったのだと思うしか無いですね、、、
