Spoiler Warning: The following article divulges spoilers for the entire first season of Vinland Saga. If you haven’t seen it yet, we recommend you come back after watching every episode.
The second season of Vinland Saga was just recently announced and it’ll bring back Thorfinn’s story after the dramatic and emotional finale from the first season. Here are five things that we want to see from Vinland Saga Season 2 as it brings us back into the land of anime Vikings.
Thorfinn Becoming a True Warrior
Thorfinn’s father, Thors, had been trying to explain to his son what a true warrior is ever since the very first episode. Understandably, Thorfinn couldn’t grasp what Thors wanted to teach him at the time, being blinded by rage and a lust for revenge after his father’s death.
Vinland Saga Season 2 could finally give us a changed Thorfinn who isn’t always screaming at the top of his lungs about murdering Askeladd. It would be a refreshing change of pace to see the young protagonist attempt to move on to his “true fight,” as Askeladd said in the final episode of Season 1.
Where does Thorfinn go in life now that his desire for revenge can’t be fulfilled? Season 1’s ending set up an opportunity for some major character development, and maybe Thorfinn will finally understand the words that his father left with him.
