PEAK.......

Devin B

That really is the best way to describe this episode. Beautiful.

Moroni W

“You're a good man with a good heart. And it's hard for a good man to be king.” Feel like this defines Canute’s progression at first with becoming a tyrant king for a while and then eventually turning around after seeing Thorfinn and becoming better off.

Theo Vorster

For those who are interested in reading along with the manga, this episode basically adapted all of chapters 98 and 99. Additionally this episode also adapted the promise Einar and Thorfinn made at Arnheid’s grave to build a land of peace in Vinland, which was originally depicted in chapter 93 (i.e. around the equivalent of the end of episode 20 of this season). Besides the standard shortening of dialogue, there weren’t any other major differences between this episode and the manga. Though in the manga Thorfinn’s face during his goodbye to Snake, Pater, Olmar, and old master Sverkel was depicted as far more puffy and swollen (adding a tone of levity that I am guessing the studio felt would be more jarring/clashing in the medium of anime). There was also some additional narration specifying what happened to Ketil’s farm. Basically Ketil retired from being head of the farm having “lost his bountiful appetite for work” (i.e. he became sad and depressed), and the manga makes it more clear he became blinded in his right eye due to the wound he suffered. Olmar stepped up to permanently become head of the farm, and paid sizable reparation to the families of every man who was wounded or killed in the battle. Said payments cost Ketil’s farm half of its land and wealth. There was also an additional joke of Sverkel telling Snake he had to learn to use a hoe before he could use the plow.

So, no Mashle episode 9? 😭

Earphone Jack

I just finished the episode. Roshi is absolutely correct. That episode was beautiful.

Jr

That ending sequence killed me. So beautiful

Hans Wurst

And Thorgil literally just vanished - and was never heard from again. Such honor, much wow. About the farm and their remaining wealth, one might say: Another W for Sverkel the goat! Furthermore this was the first time in the anime Einar and Thorfinn called each other brother, whereas in the manga this had happened before on a few occasions. But this episode really managed to enhance the chapter in the manga, it was a sight.

This felt like a finale, just beautiful man

DomClare

This has honestly turned into one of my favourite ever seasons of anime. I read the manga a while ago and had genuinely forgot some scenes. The manga IMO just keeps getting better from here on out. Incredibly excited to see future seasons animated. By the time this is completed it will be an all-timer.

MWS

WIT could not have done this season the absolute justice that mappa has and that’s a FACT

Oscar Barcelo

I wonder what next season is going to be about? They still have to meet up with thorfins family.

earthphoenix7068

Ngl, I forgot this was Mappa. I didn't notice the CGI that much. It was like Chainsaw man but more drawings were used even and less rotos.

Friendly Elites

Thorfinn refusing the reward from Olmar was also due to the reparations needed to pay to the familes, Thorfinn knew that despite his goal requiring money the people on the farm needed it to rebuild more than he did.

Magical Drinking

An absolute masterpiece of an adaptation. I really liked how they brought pack the poem from the opening episode and completely changed the context of it. In the first episode the poem felt violent. It felt like a declaration that the only way to make one's mark on the world was through strength and violence. When we see it again at the end it feels more like a poem about how we as people leave a mark on the world and on each other through compassion.

Thunter

Vinland has got to be one of my fav series’ ever. And it’s one of the few occasions I think where it keeps to its quality throughout its entirety, and even into the next few arcs. I just hope we don’t have to wait another 4 years for the next season

Friendly Elites

Such an amazing conclusion to this arc, the entire inclusion of the 'Carve It' scene was just so incredibly well done and it was honestly something even better than the manga's end of arc narration since it actually showed you the battered worn hands of every person working on that farm and the toll it takes on you to live that life just as much as it does to any warrior. Next arc is going to be so so good once its animated, both of my favorite characters in the series get introduced during it.

Henrique I. Pereira

That poem was the poem that appeared at the start of episode 1 of this season.

BlueSummer

I can't wait for the Baltic War arc comin' up. >.<

TheHud257

Probably one of the best season in all of anime

RBGTalk

This was one of the most beautiful anime episodes I have ever seen in my entire life.

Storm King

Who's cutting onions?

Daniel Robb

We are all nothing in this world without each other <3

Daniel Robb

That'll prob be next episode, I think next season we'll be actually going to Vinland.

this is one long ass username

Snake lied about Olmar being the reason that Canute withdrew to cover for Thorfinn, not to take away from him. Basically so the farm can start over again with the least amount of internal conflict as possible (which it has enough of already). Also Olmar never wanted to be like Thorgil, he was always scared of that life and was pressured into it.

Daniel Robb

You know, you point something out. Thorgil has no honour. He abandoned his family because they surrendered.

Renan

PEAKLAND SAGA

Dkai

I'm just going to say it. This is one of the best seasons of an anime ever.

Shockzz1234

Btw at 8:30, that's very much Askeladd's influence on Thorfinn i think. The cocky "crossed arms, head slightly crocked to the side" pose and basically telling Canute, the King, to do his fucking job properly and not create more hassle for him. It's way more Askeladd than Thors. I think that's why Canute asks "who did you take after?" right after it. Obviously his core beliefs and majority of his entire charatcer are all from Thors, but there's defo still some "Askeladd" in there that comes out from time to time.

Oscar

Baltic sea arc bouta hit like a mf

Joel Braaten

I love the end of this arc.

Dale Cooper

If they keep the adaptions this crisp and accurate I'll wait. So many great manga had shitty adaptions that getting a good one is worth the wait.

Aiscrim

The journey just began, friends!

Daniel Robb

You know it's a good episode when Lupa is just *silent* for the most of it.

SnailSpray

no way. we got vinland saga on monday les gooo

Aaron Gauntt

Disrespectful, dude saves the whole farm and they've still got him sleeping in a barn

Fizzy

One the few anime’s that does not have one bad episode

Devin B

Olmar was all about wanting to be a warrior like Thorgil but until recently he found out that being a warrior isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Derreck

That ja morant joke killed me LMAO.

SnailSpray

that ja morant joke was hilarious

KeYo

you're beautiful thorfinn. -plays james blunt- this episode was done very well. i dont know why they went with canute just being like you know what man ima head out but hey it was nicely done. very good arc

2023-06-13 03:12:19 Yes Mappa did pick up this show but, the real team that should be praised is the Twin Engine team. They animated season 1 back in Wit studio and also season 2 in Mappa. Mappa did the right thing for sticking with the same team but all respect should be given to the Twin Engine twam and the director of this show.

One of their scenes is gonna be so god damn good. I'm trying to be as obscure as I can, but you know which scene I mean when I say it's between thorfinn and Sigurd, it was fairly recent in the manga, and she let's her hair down in it.

L.C.

Thorfinn the GOAT and Vinland saga the GOAT

this is one long ass username

Because he wanted the acceptance of his brother Thorgil and to rebel against his dad, not because he actually thought it was the right thing to do. In truth you could ALWAYS tell he wasn’t about it. For example you can very clearly tell that Thorfinn is about the pacifist life, it’s not an act. With Olmar it was all an act.

Devin B

True. If anything I would say he was deluded into wanting to be a warrior because he thought it would be more exciting than taking over the farm. Plus being a warrior was considered a high honor amongst men so he thought he could make a name for himself by being one but reality hit him quick.

Devin B

Basically Canute somewhat adopted Thorfinn's ideology of violence not being the first method and applied it to his situation of getting more finances. Before he wanted to keep his army around despite how much money it took to keep them around but now he decided to disband some of them to have just enough to surround him while saving money even if it meant less people protecting him. In the end it worked out for him cause it got the people to trust him more.

Devin B

Lol Roshi you stupid. If anyone can change Ja Morant it definitely would be someone like Thorfinn or Uncle Iroh.

HessianX

Carve this series into my soul.

Thiivi

Holy shit I didn't even realize! Thank you for mentioning this

Delinda Arts

i teared up when they showed Leif bc this man spent his whole life trying to find his friends son and bring him home and that look was he saying "he good now" to Thorss

2023-06-13 06:05:53 did anyone else feel like arnheid’s arc/involvement was less impactful than was intended to be? she spent the majority of the season as the significant other/baby momma for ketil and the object of affection/obsession for einar with little to no growth whatsoever until her husband appeared, where for some reason thorfinn and einar decide to side with them instead of the people they have gotten along with/thrived with (snake and the guards) for the last 3 years? i loved the season but felt like her and her husbands involvement was pushed on me and i personally had zero emotional attachment to them, ESPECIALLY their child, which kept being brought up in flashbacks even though he had about 10 seconds of screentime/mentioning. i just feel like it was a plot device designed to get them to want to leave, when they absolutely didn’t need them to feel that way.

ayyyy

i mean their whole arc was used to reinforce the cruelty of the times and that arnheid and garder were victims of circumstance. Thorfinn seeing what happened to them definitely influences what he said in this episode. And that arc directly leads to thorfinn questioning his oath to swear off violence as its immediately challenged when he has to fight snake. And all that leads the actions he's taken these past 3 episodes. So it seems pretty impactful even if you aren't necessarily invested in their characters.

Nick

Farmland soo tuff

Sentinel Kab

“and this is how Florida was founded“😂😂😂😂

NecDW4

Olmar wasnt just out there workin, he was workin with the chick he had been banging from before.

rayman

man yall be talking over the dialogue and missing info. Olmar taking the credit was Thorfinn's idea, he said "Thank you." when Snake told him he gave Olmar the credit. Snake even asked Thorfinn "Are you sure you're okay with this?"

Chocolatedude100

Hey roshi, im not sure if anyone else pointed this out already but canutes dad has the same va as yhwach from bleach which was cool little thing I caught on recently.

Lupa is Dadi

how yall not put it together that thorfinn told them to take the credit? so bro would say “thank you” for no reason?! yall struggling to keep up

mpthree

i appreciate the well thought out response devoid of any aggression. i actually do agree with what you’re saying too; i guess maybe i just wanted more time/screen time to move that plot device forward

Kane

I think it’s safe to say Peakland saga is in debate of greatest anime OAT storytelling wise

CentipedeKid

The carve it scene was like the first episode but had a different meaning

Savage2fresh 60

Y’all should watch a Viking show called “The Last Kingdom”

Vincent S Deluca

And people really out here saying this season is trash lol

Vincent S Deluca

They said that before Thorfinn said thank you lol, they know. This is a TV show homie chill out lol

Luffy_77

Next episode god I've been waiting for this lol

Lupa is Dadi

they didnt bro. watch that part again they literally didnt put 2 and 2 together. ive been chill? only you reaching talking bout “its a show” no shit sherlock 😂

Team Skull Grunt B

I don't really understand why you expected them to care more about snake and the guards (the guards who also tried to kill them for fun) over arnheid and her husband who are both slaves that want freedom and they don't have a deal like thorfinn and einar do. At most they have pure respect for snake but they don't really know his story and why wouldn't they sympathize with fellow slaves?

darnay mayberry

that random ass Ja Morant shot lmfao!!!!!

i feel sorry for the people who didn’t give this season a chy

yaboyroshi

but like, i dont get why out of a whole 25 minute reaction yall pick out one tiny part we missed and act as if we didnt watch any of it? like we talk over the whole entire episode and make up headcanon

Knuckle's hair

Thorfinn saying Canute is a great man for the whole idea of saving the vikings and now in this episode we see Canute saying Thorfinn is a beautiful man was such a great moment. Snake telling his name hits hard because he abandoned his name because of his tough past, Thorfinn not only influenced Canute and Olmar to be a better person he also did that to Snake. What a beautiful payoff

Leanne Stephenson

I teared up when Canute called Thorfinn a beautiful man, honestly think this was my favourite episode

sol jam

i believe cannute real life counter was such a successful king and beloved that the english at the time were willing to embrace danish and let go of their langauge but sadly his successors were not him

Greg Harrison

Askeladd when talking about his viking father said 'he was not a beautiful man'. Askeladd saw in Canute someone who was not like him or his father or any other viking. And now Canute calls Thorfinn a beautiful man. I really love the writing in this show

Noel Cruz

This really one of my favorite adaptations, never thought mappa was gonna hit the same as Wit but they delivered

Tressk

Damn, they really gave Thorfinn the teen Gohan treatment smh

RainSD

I will never understand how angry someone acts about something as simple as a misunderstanding, you need to go outside right now and touch some grass

Lupa is Dadi

again yall pushing the agenda of me being angry isnt working, i know you cant form an opinion of your own and simply reading and comprehending is beyond you people but telling me to touch grass is funny 😂 good try tho fat boy

EZ

???? Just say you watched this show with the screen off

Its going to be very hard to top this season, I hope next season is just as good I would like to see Thorfinn make it home to his sister but at this point I dont think thats going to happen now.

Jordan

I just caught up to the manga today and let me tell you that this season really is just the TIP of the peak iceberg

Johnwick

Leme guess ya think this episode is peak also 😂😂😂

ok

don't take it to heart rayman we appreciate you pointing it out regardless ... even though the creator himself came for your neck

ok

they should also watch a viking show called "vikings"

Beagle

I just caught up on this a few days ago, and the line about Olmar figuring out that he doesn't want to fight so quickly actually stuck out to me a lot. That could have been Thorfinn in another environment where he had people to show him a different way. Thorfinn was for Olmar what Thors would have been for Thorfinn, somebody who has experienced violence and is able to show him a different way. Really underrated exchange imo

Saikonakoshi

Lemme guess. You're 16 and Bleach is the best anime of all time. Edit: I'm gonna keep it but I gotta remind myself that this series as a whole is not oriented to kids. That's not even a dig. I truly don't think you can appreciate this until you get older.

You guessed wrong bozo 😂 & fmab is the best & 100x better than this bs

had it not been askellad, sure, the encounter would have ended peacefully and thorfinn would have learned that lesson early. the fact that askellad played dirty was what tipped the scales of fate to the worse. that being said, its always harder to start pushing a cart, but once its going it becomes easier, same as what happened here. the start was rough, but now everyone else thorfinn talks to understands the meaning of being a true warrior who doesn't need a weapon, much much quicker.
