And can tell... tissues needed here. The anime is as epic as the manga. So far 10/10
If you loved the first 4 seasons of GOT, trust me, you are in for a treat here! Treason, violence, schemes, twists, shocking deaths, great characters and their individual development over the course of time, its all here! Im a manga reader and this is getting better with every issue! Cant say more without spoilers, i hope the anime will be as good as the manga!
The story teaches the gruesome history of humankind and where it leads eventually if it goes down the road of the most hellishest of hells.
The world we live in right now is also surrounded by misguided notions of power which nobody truly wants, all a human wants is peace and love and to experience it in abundance. But maybe without knowing hell we cannot know heaven, without experiencing torment it seems we won't value euphoria.
Thors realized this as he tried to embark those values on his son who had to go through this journey to understand the value of it. This series is a gift to the world of living.
Arigatou Gosaimasu!

An EPIC Story with great characters.
This masterpiece deserves anime of the year but again if Attack on Titan was not in existence. The animation and overall action scenes are visual treat not more comparable with Violet Evergarden.
The problem with this is that Wit Studio missed an important thing that is an epic background score which are important for action scenes not to worry more about it because the scenes will grab you so emotionally that you will not require background music.
Characters like Askeladd is not renewable in history it will force you to think about his strong intentions though he is not a antagonist or protagonist,
This anime is not for War it is more than it
No Anime was ever as immersive as to make me cry on the FIRST half of the VERY FIRST episode. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood's got me at the 4th episode, Shingeki no Kyojin got me at the end of the 1st, but Vinland Saga? Hell, it's not just the graphical shock the series environment puts you in, It's the BEAUTIFUL details, the landscapes that are magically followed by a "Ghibli Studio Level" piano, the incredible voice acting coordinated with a full suit of emotions that are required when you approach a Vikings culture and environment as respectfully as they did. 5 episodes out now for Vinland Saga, and the details keep surfacing in an incredibly EPIC way. This anime is just sublime in every aspect you can look at, and I will be dammed if it doesn't end up going down as one of the TOP 5 ANIMES EVER PRODUCED IN HUMAN HISTORY.
