tercera temporada, arco de la expedición al este. Lo que viene es cada vez mejor.
Beautiful reaction from two beautiful girls for such a beautiful show! Thank you.
The amount of free water this show produces makes you really wonder how the hell it hasn't won the Nobel prize
okay, kinda late but i just had the time to watch the discussion of this and the bear while i cleaned the house and please, lola asking bug-eyes name... hilarious. his name is also thorfinn, that's the funny thing, but he's hardly ever referred as thorofinn so i guess it's easy to forget. but yeah, he's also thorfinn.
Guys how long has shuhei yabuta been following LM on Twitter? Am I late?
My gf just walks in on my sick ass, balling my eyes out to two girls who were also crying. Now I have her hooked on their vids too; love these reactions so much.
My friends and family now instantly know exactly who I'm talking about when I say "the girls". My Mom watches them loads too, we often watch the reactions together ❤️
can someone tell me how they do poles like do they have a discord where they send out info or is it all on here
It's on here.
Better character arc Zuko or Thorfinn
No need to say whos better. Two legends CAN coexist.
Please watch Haikyuu next! You guys need something happy but just as hyped as AOT. Trust me when I say you won't regret watching Haikyuu. It may even end up being in your top 10 lol
I love that Ari is missing a few of his teeth- I assume that is from when Askeladd punched him after Thors died. What a great tiny detail to include!
Bro, he's missing teeth because he has been punched at some point by his wife
I think, as far as Ari and that girl who liked him in season 1 are concerned, that this was made back then to emphasize how futile their goal was. When you think of it, Ari was already kinda into Ylva but more importantly, they all wanted to gain her heart through warriors' exploits. They left with Thors because they absolutely wanted to prove themselves on the battlefield, they thought honor was more important and that "love" would be gained as a logical response to being a great warrior. Ari, just like Thorfinn and the others, was blinded by this belief, and then there's this girl, who happened to already love him for who he was already. He didn't need to go to war and be a warrior, he didn't need to prove anything. She was already there, ready to love him and live in peace. Ari not being able to see that was kinda emphasizing how absurd and futile their purpose was. They all left thinking they would find something important but in the end, what was important was something they already had and that they just left behind.
I have to thank you girls as well because I only started watching this show because yous were uploading reactions, can’t imagine missing out on this masterpiece
I think one of my fav parts is Leif looking away once Thorfin and his mom are together, and he has this slight shaking as though he’s about to cry, or maybe because he is overjoyed. But it’s very subtle and I almost missed it.
86 reaction!?
please 86 or haikyuu for the next anime
The show who redefined what true strangth in a man looks like
i don’t know how to say it without sounding weird, but i really enjoyed seeing you cry so… PLS watch violet evergarden next it’s amazing
I watched the Reaction on the train. Great finale. Especially the scene with the very young Askeladd is a nice detail. Looking forward to Vinland Saga season 3 in 1.5 to 2 years. Also, I'm very excited for the next anime. In the next poll, there are really only anime that I feel fits you guys. This can only go well. 😌
One of the best seasons of any show I’ve ever seen. It was a good idea to have a lot of comedy in this episode after everything that happened in the previous episodes too. Seeing Ylva so strong was great too, I’d expect nothing less from Thors kids🥲 I think I’m going to cave in and start reading the manga, I can’t wait a year or 2 to see what happens in this story😂 PS: Cyberpunk Edgerunners 4th slot in the poll🙏🙏
This was one of the most heartwhelming episodes I've ever seen, I mean... is it possible to not cry? Thank you girls for bringing these reactions to us and thank you Yukimura for create such a beautiful story <3
Season 2 of this show was the best season of any show I've watched. But watching your guys' reaction to it might be the favorite of any 'reaction' content I've watched as well. So I want to thank you for all the effort and emotion you've shared with all of us. To answer your question about the girl who had a crush on Ari. She was just there to give viewers additional information. Because she was worried about Ari, Leif told her about Thors' plan to drop off the villagers at the nearest port and go by himself.
But the two are not the only ones. On Reddit, others had also asked what happened to her. This gave some the idea to ask Yukimura and/or the animation team if she can play a bigger role in season 3. Maybe an OVA of Ari getting together with Ylva and not her. :D
Thank you for your journey my friends. Was awesome to see it all again with you guys. Thorfinn is in my opinion one of if not the best character I've seen written. And this feels like just scratching the surface. Can't wait for next season 3, hopefully we won't wait so many years again.
This season was a therapeutic experience. Like you guys have been saying, this season has also healed something in me. What the hell am i supposed to watch now? Everything else will seem like a disappointment
If you’re looking for anime that value messages and it’s plot over cliche action I highly recommend “Monster”. It’s a slow burn and is nearly two decades old, but is an incredible commentary on morality. It has one of the few anime antagonists that I feel can actually rival Askeladd. It may feel like “filler” at first but it all comes together just right. Totally different setting however, as it takes place in post Berlin Wall Germany. But it’s story is so good and it’s aged so well. It’s up on Netflix too in its entirety. Again, it’s a drama, much like VS S2. With most of its “action” being quick and short like vinland (often being shoot outs with guns rather than several episode long fights). But it’s SUCH a rewarding watch. I cannot recommend it enough for VS S2 fans. Also, obviously, it’s entirely finished. So you can binge it to your hearts content. By episode 4 you will be HOOKED.
Others reaction to Ari's return: " Who is this guy? We met him before?" Lola and Milena reaction to Ari's return: 😲😲😭😭 That's why this is the best reaction channel of all! One thing about Snake: he doesn't appear in the manga anymore, but there are several declarations from Yukimura and the director of the anime that make me think that, sooner or later, they will do something with his character (maybe a spinf off). Just a guess of mine to be clear, nothing official.
There is an entire arc between Three and Four, which was skipped due to difficulties with research. If the anime adapts this arc from the notes and in collaboration with Yukimura, it would be great!
Thorfinn is 22 when he returns home, however based on the manga, the ending of this episode skips a lot of things that will definitely be shown in season 3. Also, in the manga, Ylva tells him that he's 22 and that his birthday is actually about to come up. So in the very last scene of this episode, he's most likely 23.
If you want to read these chapters because they are a little different in the manga it is chapters 100-101. There's a cute scene where Ylva cuts Thorfinn's hair, and they have a nice talk.
This scene is 100% coming in season 3, or I revolt!
Ari lived rent free in your brain and you got the reward 😂. Also loving that you adore the (teased) arc 3 Thorfinn character design at the end. I’ll always miss bearded Thorfinn but he really does look SO good with a clean face. Sadly they cut the manga moment where once Thorfinn shaves he’s so embarassed but Einar says “you don’t look intimidating at all” and Thorfinn changes his stance on it and says something like “I see, then that’s good”. But I understand they had to cut some stuff considering that they need to end it off properly, as the manga was able to go arc to arc with just a months wait rather than a year or more as anime are. Not to mention this adaptation has been praised immensely by the author himself. There’s no doubt that this anime will stay faithful to the authors vision and only expand on it. Now we get to wait probably 2 years for S3. I will literally die if we have the same 4 year wait we had between S1 and S2. But I believe that was mostly due to COVID complications. The chief animation director teased on Twitter that “Thorfinn’s journey will continue” so that hopefully means that a S3 is already in pre production. There are 4 total arcs in the manga so far, so that means that they don’t have to wait for content. There’s easily enough content put out already for them to start a new season. And the directors have said this series is one they want to adapt entirely. All that is left is to wait… 😭
Past 9 months watching Vinland with you Girls went past like a breeze for me. It flew by so fast I am still processing it. Same is happening with hxh and the wire too. Tbh in first 3 episode reviews of Vinland, Milena scared me so much, I was getting a feeling that she will ask Lola to drop it because it wasn’t a feel-good happy show unlike FMAB. Considering that Vinland did not even have a poll and they in all likelihood were thinking that they got recommended another AoT like show. But I have witnessed something incredible during Vinland, Milena struggling to hold back tears in the review of episodes 23 and 24 of this season. I don’t think she has struggled to hold back tears in reviews ever. Whereas, Lola can shed tears on regular basis when reviewing. Milena said she felt embarrassed to talk about show and get emotional at same time. However, to me it’s wonderful that we could find something that you girls were able to so deeply connect to. I felt especially happy for Milena watching Vinland. Yukimura, the genius behind Vinland Saga, started writing it when he was 29. He's 47 now! And is still writing Vinland. This story has been continuing for so long because he has taken regular breaks from writing to raise his kids and be present with his life partner. Yukimura is one wholesome dude. He's lovable and kind-hearted person from blood to bone, it's really hard not to adore him. He has actually admitted in interviews that drawing violence in his manga sometimes scares him. A softie with a pen, that's our Yukimura! And he has also been blessed with good health, allowing him to pour his heart into the story. Being a mangaka is tough. Some creators' health deteriorates to the point where they can't finish their work. Take Togashi, the mastermind behind Hunter x Hunter, for example. His back/spine issues have made it physically impossible for him to sit for long periods forcing him to go on multiple hiatuses, but at least the anime has given the series a satisfying conclusion. Btw, Yukimura has finished about 95% of his writing for vinland, and the anime is giving the story the adaptation it truly deserves. Now, coming to the story itself. I agree with you girls, it feels like the whole prologue arc and the farmland arc were meant to be written together from the start to finish. It's like Yukimura had this clear plan in his mind, knowing exactly what he wanted to write and how to execute it. And he has done it in most astonishing and satisfying way possible. Among fans, just like you girls have said farmland arc is considered the best thing about Vinland. However, personally next arc is my favourite, because it hit so hard when I read manga. Imo next arc has some of the best moments of the story, up there with “I Have No Enemies”. And the fourth and final arc has one of my favourite moments in all fiction ever I have read or watched. Those who have read 4th arc know what I am talking about. If the director Shuhei Yabuta and the team continue to work on Vinland like this, I have no doubt from the way they are adapting the story the next arc will surpass the prologue arc for many if not farmland arc. Btw, Remember the prologue arc? 10/10. Let’s hope they keep continuing to work on story just like they have done in last two seasons.
Wow has it really been that long since they started watching? Doesn't really feel like it. I know that you mean about Milena lol, I got the same feeling when they started watching Mob, she then even admitted to thinking about dropping Mob because she wasn't "getting it". All in all I'm really glad they stuck with both shows
After 2 seasons Lola gets to see Ari again
Their reaction to Ari was top tier
I dropped this show in the middle of seasons 2 because I wasn't in the headspace for it, thought it was incredible but I didn't want to slog through it for the sake of it, I wanted to wait till I'm in the correct form for it. All the wonderful comments and of course the thumbnails has me really looking forward to checking it out in the future.
Honestly it’s a story for people who really like to dig deep into the minds of characters and appreciate good dialogue. My recommendation is to genuinely try to place yourself in the shoes of the characters themselves next time you pick it up. I love me some classic anime action, but as the author himself says “what’s wrong with ONE protagonist who doesn’t want to fight?” I REALLY hope you can get into it in the future my friend! This story is one of few (like TLOU, Red Dead Redemption 2, AoT, Breaking Bad) that I will GENUINELY carry with me to the day I die. (Side note, I know the girls will never really get into video games themselves, but given that Red Dead Redemption 2 is in my personal top 3 stories of all time, and how similar it is to vinland saga with it being about a bad man trying to redeem himself after all the people he’s killed, I really hope a faithful television adaptation is made. To this day, Vinland and Red Dead 2 are the only stories to actually make me straight up CRY.)
Such a great season and I’m excited for the next. You two are going to LOVE it, it’s my favorite arc!!
Honestly just so happy they maintained the light-hearted/silly tone this chapter of the manga had. Particularly the Ylva scenes. Just a beautiful end to a wonderful season. So glad you girls enjoyed it as much as you did.
The thing is not even that Ylva is goofy, she's just a bit gruff and doesn't like to show emotions. Besides, she protects her family and friends above everything. The reunion is one of the most goofy things we'll see from her.
I cant wait 2-3 years, im reading the manga 😂 the wait for AOT has been brutal enough i cant handle it again for this show.
dont blame you even i started reading the manga for aot once i caught up with the anime in like january 2022
100/10 season!
THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING REACTIONS! <3 What an amazing season
Great season.
Masterpiece.
short haired thorofinn, my favourite thorfinn look. so sad we now had to wait god knows how long for the next season... at least i read the manga but waiting for manga chapters is no better.
I'm so sad they didn't show the scene where he gets his hair cut. They have to change that scene a little bit now, too, because the dialogue doesn't quite fit anymore. This is actually before he tells his family his life story and what his plans are. When they showed Thorfinn with short hair in the trailer, I was looking forward to it. It's one of my favorite scenes between Thorfinn and his family.
I’m glad to have experienced this show with both you girls, it has truly enlightened to a degree millions of people all over the world, including myself. I’m excited to see which show is next. P.S love the hat Milena. Another side note: “violet evergarden” would be a great show to go on the 4th spot for the poll THE MAIN CHARACTER IS A FEMALE.
if we need a female mc violet is definitely a good choice. also promised neverland s1 ONLY xD
This story means so much to me. So glad you both fell in love with it as I did :)
the author yukimura included a nice old norse poem at the end of this arc in the manga, the anime didnt include it so i figured id share it https://imgur.com/a/3I6eb1N anyways im so glad everyone has enjoyed this season as much as they have. honestly i didnt start watching/reading vinland until they started uploading it and now its one of my fav series ever
This episode was too good. Hopefully it doesn't take too long for next season...
So excited to watch this! What an amazing journey. I'm so glad to have lived this with you both!
The hiatus has ended 🙏
And now the hiatus begins
Vinland Saga = Aoty
Finaaaalllyyy
