I always assumed Thorfinn was an original character who just followed Canute and Thorkell around as an observer of historic events.

[@michaelturnage3395]

Yeah, sort of like Ezio Auditore from Assassin's Creed.

[@pskeifk]

@@michaelturnage3395 When I was playing Assassin's Creed 2 I did some research on the characters and found out that the Auditore family did exist and that they had a child named Ezio. Take it with a grain of salt though, since I don't have anything to back it up and it's been over ten years since I did that research.

[@michaelturnage3395]

@@pskeifk Actually the Auditores were based off from the Strozzi family. The assassin's creed actually existed in medieval times though. Originally the Assassins were a Nizari Isma'ili sect of Shia Islam who lived in the mountains of Persia and in Syria between 1090 and 1275. Hassansin is the term they used among themselves to say they are a subject of Hassan, Hashshashin comes from the Turkish myth that they used Hash religiously and is based off of the word "Hashishi" which was a term for rabble/outcasts. It eventually became it's own word "asāsiyyūn" Alamut was the headquarters, but Masyaf was a major stronghold for them...but wait, here's the catch: in real life they were actually an Islamic jihadi/terrorist group who used public executions as a fear tactic to enforce Sharia law. So basically the medieval version of ISIS. They didn't wear peaked hoods but rather Arabian head scarfs and the fictional secret blade is modeled after the curved Persian daggers that they would hide in their sleeves to slit the throats of infidels and disbelievers in the middle of crowds of people in broad daylight. Hence the tension between them and the Catholic/Freemason organization known as the Knights Templar.

Thorfin is a very unique character. I think you should Hild maybe? Idk all the characters are really good

Hmmm Hild is very interesting but I think Askeladd and Canute should come before that...

[@_undefined1744]

@@MicMixAniTuber I agree about Canute. seeing him start as a sheltered brat, and see how he becomes known as King Canute the great

[@gilanggifari4895]

I'm actually not a fan of Hild (in VS manga). It seems she's there just for a plot device so Thorfinn doesn't go berserk and break his promise. I wish Yukimura makes her more entertaining. The only interesting characters in Thorfinn party for me are Thorfinn himself, Einar, and Leif.

[@massivegat5087]

@@gilanggifari4895 I agree for the most part. While I initially liked the concept of Hild and Thorfinn's relationship it became really repetitive and stale, as Hild is a very static character. Thorfinn is ever changing and a total badass, Einar is one of my favorite characters and his feeling of brotherhood with Thorfinn is really neat, and Leif is a guy that I respect, a kind, old man that exudes the spirit of adventure. The other Thorfinn (full-eyes) is pretty much shitty comedic relief and I wish he could just do something other than that. As the recent chapters have swayed me quite a bit, I really like Sigurd now. He's a fairly likable character and it's almost like a dose of reality that he's just normal. Not a super great fighter like Thorfinn, not incredibly smart, but a man with morals and rock solid sense of personal accountability. I can't wait to see what this next arc will hold. I'm excited to just be done with the Baltic Sea War. The best chapter during that arc was of the lone soldier fading away.

[@gilanggifari4895]

@@massivegat5087 Oh yes. I really like Sigurd too. He has a great development on how he grew from a Halfdan cheap copy to the man he is now. Surprisingly we have the same taste in best chapter. I really like that short chapter when a soldier found out Valhalla doesn't exist and he died with a face full of regret. That's one of my favorite chapter in VS. Thorfinn vs Garm is also pretty good.

[@sharpetutor227]

I am really impressed by the historic work the animators did in this. From the names of locations, sword and armour they even added saint brice's day massacre, an event not many Englishmen know. I’ve said this on others but I’ll say it here too. I often worry when japan makes an anime set on western history or culture because it’s one thing to know the history but it’s another thing to understand it. Like that one show set around an alternative universe of World War 1. Ww1 was a huge event in history for us english but for japan it’s almost none existent. So when they made the show and I watched it, it just felt lazy despite that it was alternative universe. But Vinland saga was awesome from my English perspective who loves his homelands history.

[@livingmaulana]

the praise should go to Makoto Yukimura since the anime adapt his manga, anyway check out Kaoru Mori series too like Otoyomegatari and Emma

I’m sorry to hear that Antifa would dare dump a beautiful statue that inspired your culture. It hurts me to see something sacred to one’s culture get vandalized or even dumped in a river. They think they’re not racist, well I find it racist or discriminative when those bastards vandalize historical monuments. My sympathies.

[@MicMixAniTuber]

I am Greek not from Iceland sooo the sympathies shouldn't go to me. Again I do not know who did it... People can speculate all they want but until someone is arrested we may never know. Can you imagine though... This staue was standing there for 100 years! And then it was destroyed by mindless vandals!

[@isaiahcolesanti275]

MicMix Indeed. Sorry for my false assumption.

[@isaiahcolesanti275]

Deathcoldan Agreed! I see your point. The way I see it is that they’re a real threat to the United States. They hate and select the Europeans or Whites in a way that’s similar to racisim towards us. We need to bring down these domestic terrorists and stop judging one another over what we believe in. To me everyone must come together and wipe away our differences as a people. Because if we as a people continue to discriminate over political or religious belief then this country will be in ruins.

[@islandboy9381]

@Deathcoldan can you explain to me then why white supremacists where marching at that statue? Are you sure those aren't the type of people that should be hated on?

[@JGVKRS]

It is not known if it were the ANTIFA or not, what is known is that that place was used as a white supremacist crew meeting spot. Putting an image of the antifa in this video is very misguiding and does not tell not even half of the story of that site.

Because they are leftist rats. Lefties only know how to destroy.

[@haridojamaru829]

To Yue well how can people destroy the grand mosque in the Syria. The answer is obvious, people nowadays have no honor nor respect so if they don’t respect god and their than how would they respect an ancient statue such as this one

[@ezrealofficial618]

I love Vinland saga and dororo to hyakkimaru. Damn they are the best anime ever for me.

SPOILER ALERT FOR MANGA! I was sitting here anxious if my thorfinn X gutrid ship was going to sail seeing as they left us hanging in the last update of the English translation of the manga, now I know it was always going to sail I'm pretty happy! Did not expect to hear that here! hahaha.

He is my fifth cousin 26 times removed :P a bit far out there, but still. Our common ancestor is Eivind "the Easterner" Bjarnarson, my 30th great grandfather and his fourth great grandfather

[@WOTMH]

That's messed up that they took the head of the statue like that. I would not be surprised if there was a plot twist to all this though.

[@masterDarts4188]

Honestly if Gudrid was more like that picture you provided of her, instead of how she's portrayed in the manga I'd actually like her character. As it stands, Hild seems closer to the historic version of her then the actual Gudrid character.

Great video, but please, record your voice with mono microphone, not stereo. At the moment there's a annoying phasing issues, lots of echoes from the room and sound isn't very clear.

[@levailnaik962]

Good video, I think you need some background music. Your voice is slightly monotone so music would help that.

[@theannouncer5538]

So he was basically named Thorfinn, the chad

[@makiroll218]

Do a video about Thorkell please!! I find him a really interesting character and wanna know more about him. Please?? :3

[@abe4life1]

“A real man/ a thorough man”… I think you mean “A true warrior” sir

[@jakewest74]

No way a sculptor named Einar made his statue that's crazy 😂

[@aaronrage4073]

0:43 why did he call Thorfinn “a boy destined for greatness"? Is it because he's the protagonist of the series or is there some other reason?

[@suzukiman2537]

I think karlsefni means smth like that

@MicMix I had to stop in 1:57 because you didn't even warn of spoilers, i haven't read the manga and only seen 24 episodes its not good to say spoilers without warnings bro... :/ Like, i know i shouldn't be here because i only just finished the anime recently (end of prologue) and got excited when i saw your Askeladd(en) videos (loved the two of them), i feel abit of regret getting spoiled because you didn't give warnings now lmao

[@MicMixAniTuber]

I rewatched the video and you are right bro... I don't know how I missed this disclaimer. If it makes you feel any better Thorfinn's decision comes merely 15 chapters from where the anime left off in the manga. It is still a spoiler I know but at least it wasn't too far down the line. Sorry for spoiling this. Thank you so much for watching my content and I will be more careful in the future! Have an amazing rest of the week
