Thorfinn's transformation from vengeful warrior to seeker of redemption is celebrated. Animation and action sequences are lauded for realism and intensity.

Amazing, wow, i watched this episode like 5 times already, every 3 or 4 days i watch it again, incridabel really. And am 53 old.
Infinte Potential. In few years it going to be recognized among Deathnote, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Attack on titan, Stein's Gate, and then VINLAND SAGA...Mark these words..... Rating- 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!
Story
The story is about revenge and the growth of are main character as his views change from a boy to a pure blooded viking. While the show is slow paced the characters and action will hold your interest.
Art The art in the show is really well done since it's made by Wit Studio the same people who do Shingeki no Kyojin and many other damn good looking anime. Unfortunately the only part in the anime that looks bad at times is the sea and for a viking show that's kinda bad but since the rest of the show looks so good i'm willing to overlook the bad cgi water.
Music Hmm music is 50/50 for me while it sounds good like the op is one of my fav this season but the rest of the music doesn't really fit a viking show now it is good just for me doesn't really fit the setting.
Character So far I've really liked the characters they look and act like vikings and i'm enjoying are main character growth.
Enjoyment I love this show so far and i've only heard good things from the manga readers so i'm really looking to see more from the story.

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.
