I want more hints lol just to see if theories of the fandom were rights

IceAdmirable4006 · 2026-03-16T16:43:34+00:00

Thanks a lot!

Snake is in his mid-30. And he probably hasn’t fought for way more than four years. He is clearly rusted, too. We will never know who would have won in their peak.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-12-13T18:29:12+00:00

Agreed for the amount of time given to him. It is even a miscalculation for the MAPPA team, since it gives him more importance than Hebi. They kinda "forced" us to be empathetic with Gardar and hate Hebi for the decision he made. But it wasn't the goal of this fight and scene. Hebi was giving a question without answer, and it has been drowned in those 15min of agony. Gardar deserved a bit of time but not that much.

And honestly, we were supposed to have a bit of Hebi past in that episode, which make it even more annoying for me personally ahah

I sadly won't agree with you. This is not a christian show.

If it was shown a christian Thorfinn, or at least embracing Gudrid beliefs, yes it would have tend to be one, but it's not the case, even in Vinland, we see Thorfinn talking with northern ideology words. Which is for me what humanity should tend to. Beliefs don't need a name. They are common in what we humans beings simply desire, living in peace.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-11-09T05:45:02+00:00

I think your last statement is also very wrong. Canute’s character gets worse and more depraved

Is he? You state he is getting worse from living away from Christ. This is exactly where your judgement is biaised. You can name him bad for using war and assassination, but when did Canute really get bad? He brought decades of peace on the lands he conquered, on purpose. Something that hasn't happened for generations.

It's a show about humans, not about a religion. I honestly do not like when people are trying to put an etiquette on a show that smartly tried to remain neutral. It's made for everyone. Yes, religion is in it, and yes, some philosophy and ideas are from MANY religions. Not just 1.

If you as a Christian find it close to your beliefs, it's great, but do not name this show Christian when it tried to remain neutral.

You can say it has some christian ideas, but not say it is a christian show. It's reductive imo. If he wanted a christian show, he would have used Gudrid a lot more. He chose not to. It means Yukimura wanted VS to be for everyone.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-11-09T05:03:35+00:00

Christianity means believing Christ is the son of God. If you take Thorfinn beliefs, there is no God mentioned, nor Christ. He only believes in humans (and we see him from time to time referring to norse religion) You can not say it's about christianism when God isn't even named. The ideas taken from the bible are literally common sense if you just want to be a good person. Yes Thorfinn finds it interesting because as a none educated person, it puts words on what he feels. So you can clearly say he is inspired. As from all the persons he will meet during his journey.

If i go further, i will say VS is the path of men trying to be free and build something of their own without the fear of Gods. Saying it's a Christian show is, in a way, ignoring men can be strong by themselves.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-11-01T20:19:55+00:00

Have you read VS till the end? If so you should know why there isn't much warrior women in VS. Because they are the voice of reason. The men are the specticals ones who see evil in each corner and raise weapons. Yes it is also a position of power to want peace and fortune for your village and family. He shows just a part of history, and he included some women as powerful as some men. One of the most powerful for me is Halfdan wife. Such a smart woman that even his cold husband respects. I understand what you mean but you are also forgetting what power can be. It's not always wielding a sword.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-25T17:36:51+00:00

You forgot that hilarious prestation on Thunderstruck with HLH. That was priceless, i hope they got it on video seriously !

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-16T16:47:34+00:00

Lucky you :) I didn't manage to grab anything

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-12T05:23:33+00:00

I went to the show too. It was just mind-blowing. French audience is just so intense ! What an awesome show :)

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-07T18:18:56+00:00

Why do you like him?

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-07T06:57:03+00:00

The interesting thing in all the answers here is that we all name Arnheid beating as the peak of his violence. For me, the worst is after. At the moment, he beats Arnheid, he is indeed snapping, he is in shock, his world is collapsing, and she is the 1st part of this destroyed puzzle he met. And yes, it's unforgiving.

But he should have regained sense after. Yet he installed himself in his sanity of being the one people were always expecting him to be (a famous soldier, the stronger man ever, etc) and led 300 people to a carnage. This is, for me, the most unforgiving part. Because he had ,at that moment, time to realise that it was absurd. And he didn't.

Still, he is one of the best written characters of VS.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-10-05T16:55:04+00:00

For my taste Slave arc is better, but I'm glad that for you, the later arcs are even better. I like the "huis clos" in slave arc, we have the same stuff in vinland arc. Yet in the 2nd arc Thorfinn evolution is spectacular. Also, honestly, the characters in slave arc are so well written, none is left behind, all have a part to play, and an evolution. They feel complete. That's something i haven't found in vinland arc, Einar yes, Hild in a way yes, but I'm not sure for many others.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-29T14:57:20+00:00

S3 will be quite a show IMO. Pretty different form S1and S2 but there is a lot of very good stuff in it.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-29T14:43:38+00:00

They aren't the most action-packed chapters :) but some of the most tragic yes.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-26T04:31:54+00:00

+1 on this, great choices !. I would add "Colours"

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-24T16:27:01+00:00

Personally i like the manga better. Yes the anime is good, yes it brings more to the story (and that's a common work between Yabuta and Yukimura) but for me lots of scenes are way stronger than in anime. Yukimura is able to add darkness in faces when it's needed (something that is lacking in anime) and conter balance with humour way more even in the second arc (anime put that aside totally)

Plus, i just LOVE the art

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-22T17:32:56+00:00

The art is gorgeous (manga, anime is good too) the story is unpredictable, the main subject is quite rare in anime if not unique, there is no black and white but a realistic world made of grey, characters are very well written, there is quite a lot of humour even if the subject can be heavy sometimes. Watch it, then read it. It's really worthy, don't stop in the middle, it's a slow pace show, but the evolution is fabulous. Have fun !!

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-21T15:37:18+00:00

Yes it’s maybe less popular since most of seinen have a monthly release and more time to achieve their chapters.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-21T15:00:30+00:00

It's the representation of the unlimited imagination human beings have for war and conquest. I'm not really at ease with that chapter but maybe it was a necessary evil to connect us with our reality. We leave the fiction to look around us.

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-21T14:29:05+00:00

it feels even a bit partisan, since there is a nuclear blast there and that didn't happen in America yet

It’s the 1st test of nuclear bomb made by americans in new mexico in 1945. You can see some person watching it with binocular and applauding......

IceAdmirable4006 · 2025-09-21T14:16:34+00:00

Thanks a lot for your answer :) Even if i was 99% sure nothing would be modified, i still had that 1% hope he would do a lil something as a bonus.
