Summary
Reviewers say 'Vinland Saga' is acclaimed for its profound themes of revenge, honor, and peace within the Viking era. Thorfinn's transformation from vengeful warrior to seeker of redemption is celebrated. Animation and action sequences are lauded for realism and intensity. However, some note pacing issues, over-explanation, and limited character development. Absence of Norse mythology elements is criticized. Despite these flaws, the series is appreciated for its philosophical depth and emotional resonance.

this show changed me
Vinland saga is nothing like any anime, show or even story I've seen before. The animation is amazing, the story telling is incredible and the characters feel so real and life like it adds so much weight to the events unfolding.
Everything about this show is amazing, but the one thing on top is the core message of the story. "You have no enemies." is such a vague statement at first and you don't seem to understand what thors means. As you get through season 1 and then onto 2 you realize what he and the other adults in the story were talking about. Thorfinn is definitely on the way to being one of my favorite MCs ever. If you are still contemplating watching this show don't think twice. It's a masterpiece that holds important lessons that we as people should learn from.

Top 5 Anime Ever Produced in Human History
No Anime was ever as immersive as to make me cry on the FIRST half of the VERY FIRST episode. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood's got me at the 4th episode, Shingeki no Kyojin got me at the end of the 1st, but Vinland Saga? Hell, it's not just the graphical shock the series environment puts you in, It's the BEAUTIFUL details, the landscapes that are magically followed by a "Ghibli Studio Level" piano, the incredible voice acting coordinated with a full suit of emotions that are required when you approach a Vikings culture and environment as respectfully as they did. 5 episodes out now for Vinland Saga, and the details keep surfacing in an incredibly EPIC way. This anime is just sublime in every aspect you can look at, and I will be dammed if it doesn't end up going down as one of the TOP 5 ANIMES EVER PRODUCED IN HUMAN HISTORY.
Spoiler- Its Going to become Another Classic.....
Infinte Potential. In few years it going to be recognized among Deathnote, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Attack on titan, Stein's Gate, and then VINLAND SAGA...Mark these words..... Rating- 10/10
Best Ending Ever
Amazing, wow, i watched this episode like 5 times already, every 3 or 4 days i watch it again, incridabel really. And am 53 old.
The Second best Wit Studio's Product after The first : Attack on Titan
An EPIC Story with great characters.
This masterpiece deserves anime of the year but again if Attack on Titan was not in existence. The animation and overall action scenes are visual treat not more comparable with Violet Evergarden.
The problem with this is that Wit Studio missed an important thing that is an epic background score which are important for action scenes not to worry more about it because the scenes will grab you so emotionally that you will not require background music.
Characters like Askeladd is not renewable in history it will force you to think about his strong intentions though he is not a antagonist or protagonist,
This anime is not for War it is more than it
