Whether he's dead or alive, Thorfinn is in hell anyway.

Another great episode

I see some people complaining about the pacing, why don't y'all just go and watch a different show, oh I know, perhaps a generic action shounen would be more to your liking. Y'all are lucky to be witnessing this peak story unfold. Farmland Saga is peak! Especially the character development. Anime onlys should let this one cook because it's def a slow-burn.

I was afraid what they would do with Thorfinn's character after how Season 1 concluded but I've been positively surprised so far. I'm always scared he's gonna go psycho again but what he did this episode is absolutely respectful for his character development.

I was so entertained by this episode that at the end when Snake said "explain" and the screen went black I also said "explain" like time went by so fast...

i'm amazed mappa have handled the animation so well it looks exactly the same as the art style last season. also anyone get stairway to heaven vibes from the flute sounds that play in the ending song?

The same people who worked on season 1 are working on season 2. So same director, screenwriter etcetera

Thorfinn is a bit more like his father now. He also has nullified his FEAR of death.

Very slow paced, but it's definitly a banger to watch. Thorfinn showed no signs of fear and absolutely stood there like a man. Even got his ear cut in half, but his eyes r still there thanks to Snake. Interesting character.

Lmao I love seeing people thinking they have somehow ascended beyond mere man simply for liking a seinen series. Honestly, the seinen tag doesn’t mean the story is hard to enjoy or grasp. Quit being so damn pretentious

Thorfinn showing who's boss

What humility of Einar when trying to sacrifice himself for Thorfinn

The final character called Snake catches my attention
 I'm not a critic or anything like that but I like to give my opinion

We anime viewers are feeling a premonition that we would somehow be imprisoned into the depths of this illusionary anguish; main character is experiencing. This anime is the incarnation of a Master work ever witnessed in the history of anime as it literally imbued its viewer with intellectual curiosity.

The Vinland’s characters change Einar like the young Thorfinn of the first season. Instead Thorfinn must search his goal to survive hoping that Snake manages to rekindle his Warrior soul. Yeah farmland maybe slow paced but the characters development is great

I made to think that Thorfinn was gonna be a badass warrior and protect Einar from dying. Instead, he's still kinda badass taking all of those cuts, but it's really depressing lmao... All of his will to live is just gone lmao.

great episode, not a fan of this thorfin but I'm sure he will get his calling again at some point during this season.
Thorfin could easily kill all of those "warriors"

every here is going crazy for snake so I'm excited for what he is all about.

Kinda cringe and unrealistic episode, although I guess it was always an unrealistic show. Just masquerades as a realistic one at times.
The guy got punched in the nose and his teeth came out?

I truly love how much detail is being poured into Vinland Saga by MAPPA. An example of this is when they animate steam emanating from Einar's red hot piss. Also, fuck Olmar. He is a big crybaby, he is a major brat. He wants to be a soldier but he can't even bring himself to kill a single slave.

Thorfinn needs help but at the same time he seems okay like this as well.

Behold of my awesomeness~

Thorfinn is in some dire need of therapy lmao. Jokes aside, as an anime only fan I am always left craving for more and I am super stoked about this new season. 

Farmland feels like the relative calm before the storm and the character development of Thorfinn beyond "angry guy go brrr" is great for fleshing him out.

damn thorfinn really is a shadow of his former self. never would've thought while watching season 1 that this how he would turn out.
"not a single good thing has happened to me in my entire life". that hit, because he's not lying.

COULD be a Very Good Episode...

But nope.. so many cuts, but only blood in Thorfin, not in ground, nor sword, nor everything else that was near them...

A single but important detail. 4/5

Kinda disappointed by the production for the moment...
It's a mix of shot or moment extremely detailed with most of the other moment below average with characters never on CD, I would have preferred something more stable instead of having both extreme.
Didn't get the artistic change for the last sentence of Thorfinn's death speech, this shot was way better in the PV.
