It started off strong and rapidly became very dull. I don't mind if there's no action but i literally stopped caring about the plot, about Thorfinn wanting revenge. Hell Thorfinn barely appears. The rest of the characters are just assholes. Then prince Canute does angry face and I just couldn't watch it anymore.
Priest be like "love is when dead person" my eyes rolled so hard I could see my brain.
Can't even bring myself to finish season 1 i simply don't care about a single character.
I didn't learn my lesson with Re:Zero to just not listen to whats popular cos its a guaranteed wet fart.
I haven't watched the second season, but really enjoyed the first one. WIll say I agree with you on Re:Zero, though. a massively overhyped show with a little bit of promise and not much else. If we agree on that, we may agree on Vinland Saga season 2, but I appreciate slow burns. I was never under the impression it was supposed to be an action show
Maybe I'll take the time then to recommend Golden Kamuy. That show deserves way more love, and it's a more action-packed historical seinen adventure. You just gotta get past the terrible CGI bear in the first season 😅
Yes, HARD recommend.
Also Ainu cultural/cooking snippets. I loved them alot and saw them as a main draw (aside from a very wide colorful cast of amazing characters), but my friends found they took them out of the narrative too much.
Also they are not
I honestly liked the cultural stuff. It shows a real love for indigenous people and other cultures, but it is a hurdle for some people
Also, good for you. As long as you don't tell me I'm living wrong for not being one myself, it's all good to me
Oh, I meant the food segments are not vegan!
Oh my bad 😅. I'm getting bombarded on another thread where people think I'm some kind of vegan hater, so now I'm on edge
