One assumes because they are common in Japan and they realize not thy aren't in other places when they're making shit about other cultures; this is super common. Every American film ever that will have a scene on location in another place will have numerous cultural gaffes. Judge Dredd was written by an Englishman but set in the U.S. and had multiple gaffes where the author forgot that in the U.S. they drive on the right side of the road.
I thought pic related was some kind of interesting inversion of gender roles actually when I first saw it; in most parts of Europe it's the gender norm for the female to lie on the male lap; in Japan it's apparently the reverse but the setting is Europe.

Head pats are a nice way you think that person is being cute and secretly show they're beneath you.
Gavin Sullivan
Yeah, the same thing happened in jojo part 5 (that is set in Italy) where a character doesn't like the number 4 because it's unlucky, even though the number 4 is unlucky only in Japan
Caleb Allen
Headpats aren't common in your country?
Joseph Nguyen
we just drink beer together desu
Dominic Price
Fair enough, but you should know that nothing beats the feeling of getting headpat from your mom or dad. ;_;
Parker Young
Headpats are common in my country and I think Europe as a whole.
Hunter Bailey
Is Vindland Saga worth it? First episodes have a fuckawsome premise but quickly get tarnished by animu tropes.
Blake Baker
If someone who isn't like blowjob level relationship tried to head pat a grown man can expect a fist to the face.
Josiah Bennett
Easy to animate.
Leo Hall
>any battles, war and people's stories are now animu cliches

Did thorkell headpat him tho? I think he just took his head and moved him or something. Obviously you don't headpat someone random like that, I got headpatted by my uncle when I was younger.
Adam Fisher
Yeah you pat kids but thats because they dont know any better.
John Bennett
Loving it so far(anime only). It’s bogged down by them adapting the chapters in chronological order (even without having read the manga, I could just feel that the tone shift between episodes 6 and 7 was WAY off), but overall it’s a real fun Viking story
Chase Sullivan
Watch it you fag.
Nicholas Carter
Because nips are all IMAGINE tier.
John Ortiz
If I was as tall as Thorkell I'd go around patting people on the head as well.
Ian King
fun fact: 13 is a lucky number here, it's 17 the unlucky one
Joshua Ross
It's unlucky in China also, because 4 = shi = death.
Aaron James
I once headpatted a girl in my college class after we were done doing an exposition in front of the rest of the class. I didn't even realize I had done it and afterwards she wanted to kick my teeth in.
William Sanders
>tarnished by animu tropes.
Oh its a shame you are watching a genre thats 90 percent garbage.
Justin Edwards
she was being tsundere. she wanted the d.
Adrian King
I honestly think she might be a tsundere; she's a Bulgarian chick with a short temper.
Jose Foster
To me its pretty dissapointing. I heard only good about the manga and like the studio but anime is so average...
Landon Davis
I once got in trouble because I headpat my teacher
Jordan Reed
I like that they did it that way. I hate long flashbacks when you're in the middle of something good.
Oliver Green
superior taste. headpats are great, sadly they aren't very common in my country unless you're a little kid.
Robert Smith
Read the manga.
Joseph Davis
But it wasn't in the middle of anything, there was no overlaping plot.

Josiah Hill
reee i just hate flashbacks
Austin Hill
I never read it
Carter Robinson
>all this anime only
I really hope we reach the Farmland Saga arc and see all the reeeing
Kayden Bailey
WE ARE FIGHTING DREAMERS
Nolan Gonzalez
I love when thorkell play american football
Jeremiah Young
nah there's mutual headpats where you do it at the same time.
Jaxson Jenkins
Si wang.
Cooper Jackson
>wang
Go on...
Kayden Miller
literally dropped the show here
Easton Lewis
Cute!
Connor Carter
Shi is Japanese user, not Chinese.
Josiah Evans
Si is still pronounced like shi in Chinese.
Kevin Edwards
manga is very well drawn garbage. dropped it as soon as the mc becomes a cuck. What kind of pussy fucking viking doesnt want to kill in war time. Also the entire farm arc is trash.
Gabriel James
Do people headpat IRL?
Cameron Mitchell
I do.
Jayden Howard
Because the Japanese don't do casual hugging.
Brody Fisher
Just read the manga, it's a great ride. The anime has a bunch of anime-only crap that only distracts from the story. There are even 2 filler episodes that undermines the hate Thorfinn feels.

Poor OP has never had a head pat.
Tyler Flores
>he's never gotten his head pat
I'm sorry.
Daniel Murphy
Hugging is overrated, headpats are the superior form of showing affection.
Julian Walker
On the day of the pat, you will be the first to get pats.
Kevin Rodriguez
Did your father never ruffle your hair(head pat) user? I feel sorry for you.
Chase Hernandez
>in most parts of Europe it's the gender norm for the female to lie on the male lap; in Japan it's apparently the reverse but the setting is Europe.
Honestly the head lap thing can go either way. Girls I find are either lazy and like to cuddle with you so they lay in your lap, or they like to play with your hair and act maternal so you lie in their lap

>you have no enemies
>except the vikings that will murder you, rape your wives and carry off your children as slaves
