VINLAND SAGA SEASON 2 ANIME PLOT

In the first season, we saw the venerable general of Jomsviking, Thors, killed in a unfair battle by Askeladd, the leader of a group of mercenaries. Thorfinn, his son, who witnessed everything at the scene, swore to avenge his father in a fair fight against Askeladd. However, after years of growing up with Askeladd and finally witnessing his death, he destroyed the vengeful Thorfinn within him and lost his will to live.

The first part serves as an epilogue to Thorfinn’s character development, and as manga readers assert, the real story is just beginning. Vinland Saga Part 2 follows the slave section of the manga, commonly known as the Ketil Farm section. Thorfinn was enslaved as punishment for attacking Canute, the new king, for stealing his purpose in existence by executing Askeladd at the end of season one. Thorfinn has only known war as a killing machine fighting under Askeladd, but Season 2 will reveal a new side of him and share the anxieties of an individual enslaved. .

Maybe we’ll see a reformed version of Thorfinn with a new will to survive. On the other hand, Canute aims to make Earth a paradise in his own right, and while intending to build a peaceful world, he can negatively impact history.
