Quality wise? Barely
Sales wise? Easily

KnY adaptation is great.

That annoying yellow faggot ruins it for me.

Too bad the source material is bland

>gimmick based
that's funny since the only reason people are interested is the gimmick, Viking setting.

> I'll pay eight sheep for a soon too be dead slave
I hate it

Jojo Pt 5 and Zokuowarimonogatari are better tought those are from the previois year certainly.

Thats the dumbest shit ive heard. Its like saying that Eva is only liked for its flesh mecha gimmick. It is a interesting setting to draw an audience but not what keeps them watching, its either the story or the characters.

If it's end at Farmland saga, it's masterpiece

it's a great adaptation of mediocre source material
Vinland Saga is a good adaptation of amazing source material

Most of the times it looks pretty bad. Still in the top four of the year so far though with Mob II, Dororo and Sarazanmai.

K. I love both series. Now what?

Well, I know those other ones don't hold a candle. In fact maybe putting Dororo in there was an exaggeration. But it's just that the show didn't have that strong competition.

Back when the first announced the anime adaptation I cried of joy.

Fan-service doesn't bother me and plot is the thing I am least interested in in an anime, so it works fine for me.

It’s boring garbage. MP2 was amazing though.

What didnt you like about it?

Too bad Boogiepop absolutely butchered the first arcs

>boring
ADHD ridden zoomer.

Outside of the great animation, it is mostly just an average shounen story.

So you just want meaningless sakuga? No good story or characterization? Might as well just watch AMV clips instead.

And it flopped so hard. Sure nips have shit taste, but I still can't comprehend how even objectively worse series like Sacred beasts could sell better. What do nips even want?

The pacing is terrible and the CGI is Overlord tier.

My favorite part is the direction, pacing and tone. And at least episode 2 showed some thematic depth.

>hahaha look I'm hating naruto, do I blend in now?

I read the manga and also think that it's too slow for anime. If you watch it after all episodes will be out the story will surely looks good. But for a weekly show they linger too much. And they even added a fucking filler for Thorfinn's childhood. I'm not surprised at all that anime only feel bored.

I remember when naruto cancer was banned from Yea Forums altogether. And now shits like you try to look like oldfags. Ridiculous.

Fucking based, they don't care about attracking the action crowd or the fan service crowd, started with the flashback, fleshed out Thorfinn more with fillers, I fucking love them, all the plebs are getting filtered.

naruto was banned because narutards are retarded spammers. That doesn't mean everything in naruto is shit. Stop being a contrarian retard

I'm not contrarian, I just don't have shit taste.

No I'm not an idiot, when did I say I cared about the fucking pre-order sales in Japan, I'm happy one of my favourite manga is getting a good adaptation even if its for one season. All you haters can fuck off and watch your shitty whatever shounenshit, isekaishit or fan-service shows that came out this season.

Room temp IQ if you really think the manga's way to start would work in anime. Do you really think a 3 episode flashback would be good pacing? Think for one second.

I wish I could back

No, you are complete butthirted retard. Where did you get that I'm a hater? I wanted season two, but now there won't be one because it's a flop. And you should care for preorders if you wanted it too.

>Creative blending of 2d and 3d animation in use of motion
Stop misusing the term "creative". They're just using 3dshit for stuff that's difficult to craft in 2d like vehicles or backgrounds. There's nothing new or original about that.

Not OP but the use of CG is really good. Specially when you see how other anime have used it in the past without knowing how to blend the 3d with the 2d so it looks fluid. Though the CG in the first battle sequence was a little wonky at some shots.

>Not OP
Sure, sperg.

>Specially when you see how other anime have used it in the past without knowing how to blend the 3d with the 2d so it looks fluid.
This has been done before though you fucking newfag. Just look at something like ufotable fateshit or KnY from last season.

Fantasy/medieval bullshit will always be shit in any media. Time to move on.

Its actually very underutilized if you think about. Count how many actually medieval anime there are if you remove Isekaishit. Real medieval shit is hard to find.

manga is infinitely better

The moralfaggotry ruins the show for me to be honest. It destroys the immersion.

>a true warrior needs no sword
>I'll pay 8(!) sheep for some dead slave
>i want my revenge in a fair duel
>sure I've been raping and pillaging all my life but then I suddenly, for no real reason, I attained 21th century morality and decided to run away
>war bad. men stupid. women good

He wants his revenge in a fair duel because Viking society was about honor and he doesn't want to be like Askeladd, though in the next ep Thorfinn will try to kill Askeladd in his sleep, this is anime only though.

>>sure I've been raping and pillaging all my life but then I suddenly, for no real reason, I attained 21th century morality and decided to run away
brainlet, they even explained his reasoning in the show already

Do you think morals were inverted in the 21st century? How the hell would you know if there weren't any people like Thors within the viking-era?

>though in the next ep Thorfinn will try to kill Askeladd in his sleep, this is anime only though.
Wut. Why did they need to add this shit?

Because they can.

They are retarded then. Not only they add fillers they also make contradictions with manga.

>they also make contradictions with manga.
Literally what?

It feels unnecessary too, since once Thorfinn grows up he's constantly asking to fight with Askeladd. The anime doesn't need any extra scenes to show how much he wants the ladd dead.

dororo is shit

It might not be a contradiction yet.. We haven't seen the episode

Is this Vinland fags last ditch effort to get people to watch their garbage series? Its dead bro nobody liked it but shitters.

If it needed explaining then it didn't belong. Just because they explain something doesnt mean its a valid excuse.

>The use of CG is really good.

Suck my dick.

Right, a story that wastes volumes on end with nothing goddamn happening, pointless new party members one after the other, mook and MOB fights, and time-filling comic relief. Great comparison, actually.

Man, Moenut was so cute.

This show easily transcends the medium similar to SnK, feels like I'm watching high profile television.

You had some good points but you also sound like a complete normie fag with the naruto reference, Vinland Saga is polar opposite to shit thats coming out to day and has good characterization and writing and ofcourse very well directed, very interesting setting we haven't seen in an anime, but it's not based on a true story, it has real life characters and follows history but its still fiction.

You clearly didn't watch the anime because that's not what it is or you're bainting.

Fair enough,though naruto isn't really a normalfag anime as it was before. Its as normalfag as evangelion is normalfag.

It totally would, use one episode for the first fight to offer some context to characters, profit.

>Yeah,just give me THREE episodes of flashbacks after the first episode then go back to present-time,great pacing. This is why retards like you don't direct anime.

Your entire argument relies on the assumption that the pacing of the manga is somehow bad and would require THREE episodes translated to anime. Also your formatting is fucking horrible, are you drunk?

But the first 2 chapters in the manga is the present then its a flashback and they where long chapters aswell, 80 and 40 pages, it wouldn't have worked, especially with the 2 week break, literally everyone would have dropped it.

Might be enjoyable if you like slice of life, since they revolve around the entire idea of jack shit happening.

If they ever animate this part this is when everyone will drop it and it will die.

>the only real character development happens near the end of it
If you have a brain the size of a turd nugget,yeah. There's not a chapter that goes by without adding more development to Thorfinn. The only reason the farm gets so much slack (from ADHD ridden shounenshitters) is because the pacing seems bad when it was being released. Re-read it now and tell me your opinion of it then.

Why do you consider world building and story pacing a bad thing? Do you really need to jump straight into action 2 chapters after the reunion? There's plenty of things happening, and i actually found the farming parts enjoyable.

I mean, so does Eren. He would've died sooner if it hadn't been for his Attack Titan powers.

Thorfinn and Eren are polar opposites though. Thorfinn is an incredibly skilled warrior while Eren was a mediocre soldier. The only thing that makes them similar is having an edgy phase and wanting to get revenge, and then realizing that the world is a cruel place. However, Eren chose to embrace his hatred and exterminate his enemies while Thorfinn chose to abandon the way of the warrior and became a pacifist. Personally, I find it interesting how well these series compliment each other.

Kaguya-sama is still better.

The CGI in that show is so badly executed that it's not watchable for me. Doesn't blend in with the rest of the anime at all. When they cut to one of those CGI scenes I'm like "what the fuck" and then start laughing, Vinland Saga at least executed their CGI well.

The plot was so incredibly predictable. Other than the sword break, which was cool, nothing really impacted me because I saw it all coming a mile away.

Kaguya-sama butchered the fireworks episode and the dishonestly rotoscoped animated Chika dance scene was the worst cancer to plague this board that winter.

Don't think he's wrong anyway. Why are all modern mass shooters are males when both genders have equal access to guns? Women in the past most likely become a warrior because to protect themselves from men, not because they want to seek power themselves (and not like men would allow them become leaders no matter how strong the women will be anyway).

This thread proves that Yea Forums are a bunch of contrarians with shit taste. Shoo, shoo back to your flavour of the month, moe, SoL, ecchi garbage and let the adults with refined taste discuss some real anime.

Yea Forums. Yea Forums isn't NEARLY as bad as Yea Forums, trust me. At least Yea Forums is still arguing about games and people getting angry. Yea Forums is a bunch of incoherent inbreds, much like Yea Forums just spouting memes. It's just as pathetic as people on Yea Forums fantasizing about cartoon women.

>At least Yea Forums is still arguing about games
user....

Great bait friendo.

I hope when the series reaches later arcs of the story, the OP keeps and continues the shot of Thorfinn aging up from the flashback to England. It looks really cool

I think Vinland Saga overall has a better blending then Fire Force. The worst parts would be the long camera sailing vs the truck driving through the city. The truck looks worse in my opinion. They're both far and away better than the atrocity that is Kimetsu no Yaiba though.

Fire Force has such great direction, but holy shit is the plot so goddamn bland. I guess it's fine if you like spectacle, but the few eps haven't really hooked me at all. I want to find out a little more about what the deal is with weird dieselpunk christian tokyo, but I don't give two shits about the characters or general plot. Also making it a generic battle anime seems like a waste of potential, a show about actual fire fighters with a bit of battle shonen sounds neat, but they don't even do any actual firefighting.

The first few eps are just setting up the main character's arc. No shit their predictable. Anyone with half a brain would figure Thors would get killed to give Thorfinn a motivation.

A true warrior would be able to defeat any foe with just his talk no jutsu. For every enemy he defeats this way, he gains a new ally. It is the most perfect and complete technique.

What an absurd series of notions.
>Why are all modern mass shooters are males when both genders have equal access to guns?
Because female mass murderers prefer poisoning people over bloody attacks.
>Women in the past most likely become a warrior because to protect themselves from men
No one becomes a warrior in isolation. Women who fought did so alongside men, against an enemy that may have included other women. The men and women on the winning side profit, while the men and women of the losing side suffer. Though men do the vast majority of the fighting, they cannot go to war without the support of their women. Someone has to look after the children and keep society functioning. Women are fully capable as a group of vetoing wars. Hell, a bunch of women complaining was enough to force the release of their Jewish husbands in Nazi Berlin. (The Rosenstrasse Protest)

kinda dumb, agreed, real life isn't so fucking easy that you can just become "da perfec warrio" by not using armor or proper weapons, but it's something you just have to suspend your disbelief for - Thors is the only instance where it's hard to believe he'd be this good
>I'll pay 8(!) sheep for some dead slave
also retarded, Thors' family would be dead if he did shit like that, times back then were extremely fucking harsh and there's examples in the same fucking manga later on where doing such shit actually led to people starving to death
>i want my revenge in a fair duel
believable considering their society and beliefs at the time, it wasn't like today where people have fedoras on all the time

also pretty believable, war is fucking horrible and scars everyone, in contrast to what media says about it
>war bad. men stupid. women good
what

The "killing is bad" thing gets a bit retarded later on in the manga but most of the time it actually leads to some pretty nice conclusions that make sense - for example it stops Canute from becoming a corrupt, evil asshole after he meets Thorfinn again. But like with Trigun, you just have to close one eye and pretend it works.

>Wars are fought by men and women do suffer as a result of war.
Every demographic suffers on account of war. Women share in both the costs/profits and culpability of war. Men do the majority of the fighting, and the majority of being maimed or killed. Do you think men are less likely to be impoverished or displaced by war? Is being more likely to survive physically unscathed in return for greater likelihood of losing a loved one supposed to be the greater suffering? I'd say the person who died a violent death suffered more than the people who survive them. The idea that men do all the fighting without the support of women but women have to bear all the suffering is fucking asinine.

at least there's no hiatus yet

>women do suffer as a result of war
Clearly not the worst of it, given that the vast majority of them never engage in it.
youtube.com/watch?v=WM8bTdBs-cw

Well then you basically agreed with Yukimura Makoto then, men started the war and fighting, of course men suffered. Women just suffered together with the men even though they never started the war at the first place. If you think somehow women grouped together to say no to war in past and men listened to them, why the hell we still have abortion debates until today?

Baldr is the only character I could stand that was added after farmland saga.

>being this triggered because someone doesn't hate women like you do

You gonna give me spankings? UwU

Next time, a simple "Thank you for explaining how stupid my worldview is" will suffice.

>If you think somehow women grouped together to say no to war in past and men listened to them, why the hell we still have abortion debates until today?
Where on earth did your train of thought get derailed? How many men would go to war if their mothers would never speak to them again for enlisting? Or if their wives would take their children and leave? The idea that men do whatever they want and women only do what men allow them to do isn't historical revisionism, it's whole cloth fiction. The biggest opponents to women's suffrage were women. Once the majority of women were in favor of suffrage, they got the vote. Compare that to an actually suppressed group like, say, black people. Abortion is restricted only in states where the majority of women are against it. Women and men have always been utterly dependent upon each other. In no civilization ever have women been the poor, helpless victims of men's whims.

I have thousands of non-lewd pictures of my favorite female characters. I'm quite capable of liking women without drinking third wave feminist koolaid or being a blithering retard like you.

I wish I had the mental illness required to write such longass posts just because a mangaka said that women suffer from war.

I'm talking historically. Once a minority group has equal rights (including the absence of Jim Crow shenanigans), any argument for suppression becomes pretty suspect.

It's no recipe for success, lots of shows that are gayer are flopping. Do you really think that adding x and y pandering to a show will automatically make it a hit?

No, they will be ANIME ORIGINIAL SCENES, not FILLER. There is a very big difference. One advances the plot and adds more development to the characters and story while the other is there to fill time.

there's literally nothing of value in Fire Force except the fan service, and it doesn't even have the best fan service this season, Dumbbell completely annihilates it in that department

No, just some anime-only scenes to flesh out Thorfinn's character more.

Thinking of the day when Thorfinn kills him ofcourse we know what happens

because the story isnt about him or his past. he dies early. its about the kid. they stated it directly so they could quickly give context to the audience, and the situation in the show was that he was explaining it to another character that didnt understand. it was a quick summary of how/why he is this outlier, and its important to have that because him being that way is important to the story later, but HIS story isnt the main focus. you're just retarded.

for an anime original episode, I'm surprised at how great that was. WIT is really nailing this adaptation

I wonder if they did this to lessen the sausage fest, trap Canute counted

Teenage Thorfinn appears in episode 7

damn, that was some prime shota suffering

I couldn't resist.

I wonder if teenage Thorfinn means the 12-year-old Thorfinn since next episode looks like filler too

This show is starting really slow. I wonder if anyone except for mangafags will actually stick around until the story begins.

dumbass, next episode isn't filler

I find it, pretty good and will stick till the end.

>21th

>Superb adaptation of an existing work that was already god-tier,on par with the likes of Berserk
Read more manga.

Literally every scene you can see in the next episode preview is filler, dumbass

Christians during that period weren't some peaceful devout people lol

Do you know what filler is?

Name 5 better medieval/fantasy titles

>>Best op
shitty engrish jrock is not good lol

>hurr it's not filler because I say so
It's not in the manga so it's filler. I don't care what your retard definition of filler is

Will Thorfinn ever stop being a fucking manlet?

Bretty good.

Better medieval show than Game of Thrones, that's for sure. Whole show is kino and really shows respect to the time period.

No. And thanks to the childhood/adolescence he's about to have he never gets a proper diet to help him grow. As a result he's a manlet even as an adult.

childhood malnutrition is a serious problem user

Your definition of filler doesn't mean shit. Filler is when producers need to fill the gap between episodes because there is no content to adopt so they just churn out something that doesn't relate to the mainplot of the story at all and has no consequences to the story or the characters. This episode(and the next) are ANIME ORIGINAL: which means they advance the plot and add more characterization and worldbuilding to the story.

If it's not in the manga, it's not canon, making it... can you guess it? Filler.

Filler exists do do nothing but buy time. This is anime original content. It actually expands on the source material to enhance to experience.

i mean they were in the manga, chapter 21.5

That's what it does. They obviously want it to be 24 episodes just to satisfy their autism. It was a nice episode but doesn't really add anything

This is a pretty pathetic argument and I hope you realize how pathetic it is.

>Literally no argument
Just concede and stop embarrassing yourself.

>tfw ywn rape women and lolis

>It actually expands on the source material to enhance to experience
So your definition of filler is entirely subjective? Well then I say filler doesn't exist. Yes, those hundreds of Naruto episode all expands on the source material to enhance the experience. You literally can not prove me wrong.
Here you go, faggot

WIT are based as fuck, SnK this year was elder god-tier

>based on a true story
Yeah, no.

You are too fucking stupid to even argue with.

>when he sees your dick

Well, Thorfinn was a real person.

It can't be helped

As was Alexander the Great, doesn't make Fate/Zero based on a true story.

Stupid brat.

Should I just skip the anime for now and read the manga if I wanted to get into this or is the anime a good enough jumping on point?
It's been on my backlog for years.

Yes, so was leif ericksson and Vinland was actually america but that doesnt mean that the story is based on a real one, just bc your characters are based on real people doesnt make the story based on a real one. Thats not how it works.

i mean reading the manga shouldn't take too long

we already established that OP is a faggot, but Vinland is definitely best show this year, OP just listen pretentious reasons

If you haven't watch it by now .Might as well watch it. You will be just comparing the manga and anime back and forth if you read it now. Read it once it's done. The adaptation actaully adds more to some characters than the manga.

Bullshit, you're telling me King Arthur wasn't a cute blonde retarded girl? Can anyone confirm this man's accusations?

If you haven't read it by now*

>>Little to no shameless fan-service to pander to brainless otaku degenerates

I agree. Finally some good adult show.

I watched the first 4 episodes in a day and then read the entire manga in ~4 days after that. It's worth it

Best

What

Vinland Saga is based on historical figures, not history. Almost nothing that happens is accurate to contemporary sources

but it expanded on the source material, it showed us how Thorfinn changed and became stronger, I think that added a lot.

You seem confused, I agree with this definition.

OP tried to be pretentious is all im saying but Vinland is the best this year, don't @ me.

Well i'm happy you conceded then. Name's paul btw,nice to meet you ;).

almost like they took that and made a story from it. like, they used it as a base or something.

no it didn't

There is no credible depiction of him so unless proven otherwise (s)he can be whatever u want

tfw read vinland so many years ago I don't even remember anything before the time skip

The main plot is very much based on historical events. It doesn't have to be 100% accurate because it's only based on history, it doesn't attept to recreate the exact events as they happened

Holy fuck are you stupid

excellent argument

Last for freckled who

Mangafags: How much longer until he becomes badass?

define "badass"

Farmland beating.

~2 episodes until he turns into a """"""""badass"""""""", next season will probably be when he realizes that true badassery comes from cultivating inner strength and praising Allah

He wants to kill him, but he wants it to be in an honorable duel like his father.

Seriously speaking, i think they should have just ended the manga right after farmland saga with a more conclusive chapters following it.
I'm saying this mainly because if you look up thorfinns name, he kinda doesnt get what he wants.
Ending it with a more 'hopeful' conclusion or beliefs would have felt right i think.

You dont deserve an argument since you cant even seem to read properly.

It's possible the Manga ending won't end same as what happened in history

down right likely even, since according to real history, Thorfinn Karlsfeni's expedition to Vinland happened 3 years before the prologue

The author still isnt gonna do anything too drastic inspite of it.

I see, so you don't have any arguments

But i also do think Thorfinn's ending won't be a happy one. I mean it could but i have a feeling it won't
