Hey hey Patrons!

We're back with another Vinland Saga and we're getting into some war, some grifting and A SHOCKINGLY RENDERED FRENCHMAN!

LOL good God what does the illustrator and animators have against the French with this take on Jabbathe (a not so subtle reference to Jabba the Hutt) and we're roooooollling about it.

Like we know can't really be racist against the French, but this is about as close as you can get.

And we get more of a look into Askeladd's methods and this VERY tense relationship with Thorfinn.

Follow this exclusive link to hang!

There are only two things I can’t stand in this world: people who are intolerant of other people’s cultures and the French.

Carrying longships over land was done all the time historically especially by Vikings. While these ships might seem too heavy to carry if you are carrying it with 40+ men it’s obviously a lot easier and these longships were much lighter, faster and more versatile than comparable ships of the time it’s what made Vikings so terrifying, they could come in with their fast af ships, raid villages and towns and get back on their ships and flee before any real army or military force was able to mobilize and catch them. And there's a bit of anime logic as well of course haha.

Worth mentioning that in the manga, the story is structured differently, and this episode is where that begins. Then, it flashes back to the Thorfinn backstory stuff with Thors. So that's why this episode is so goofy and over-the-top and action-packed, this was originally written to hook readers on the action and adventure and the charismatic Askeladd and Thorfinn the badass vengeful murder child. It's almost definitely the shallowest episode, still a lot of fun though.

That explains why the first shot of Thorfinn looked like an introduction even though we’ve seen him at this age already

Actually there was another time skip here. The first few episodes take place in 1002, and Thorfinn is 6 years old. In episode 6, they montage through the next 6 years, so he's 12 during the stuff with the kind English lady. And then here they jumped forward another 4 years, so it's 1012 and Thorfinn is now 16.
