today is the 20 year anniversary of vinland saga. this story is incredible. following thorfinn’s journey of revenge as a 16 year old, to a slave learning the beauty of farming, who would later understand the true meaning of “you have no enemies”. thorfinn’s character is so beautiful and so amazing. he devotes himself to a life of peace & to becoming the best man he can be. his strength and courage to be kind is inspiring. yukimura is an amazing storyteller and i am so grateful he took the time to create the perfection that is vinland saga.
i just finished vinland saga s2. i actually have no words. this season was one of the best pieces of media i have ever consumed. thorfinn’s arc was so beautifully done, and the characters this season were amazing. thorfinn going from being an empty, defeated man to now taking on the mission to create a haven for those suffering. from being a warrior on the battlefield to a slave to a man working towards peace, was such an amazing journey to watch. thorfinn slowly coming back to life through farming made me so emotional. the animation and writing this season was incredible! i've quickly grown to love thorfinn and i already feel he'll be one of my favorite characters for life.
vinland saga s2 ep8 is so far my favorite episode of the series. so beautiful to see thorfinn finally acknowledge his emptiness, but have people tell him that you CAN find something to live for. that he CAN change. slowly, he's starting to allow himself to feel again. after the first few episodes, which show us how defeated he is, it's so nice to see him upset about what happened to their farm. thorfinn's gradual curiosity about farming and his small attempts at opening himself up have made me so emotional. i can't wait till the day he can smile again <3
