An episode of 25 minutes, a season of 24 episodes, and 10 hours of time. In short, it is a story that uses the death of several parents to exchange for the growth of the younger generation, thus unveiling an epic prologue. But everyone sees different things when they read the story. Some people see the magnificent epic, some people see the cruelty of war, and some people see the complex and real human nature. There are also many viewers quarreling in the barrage, discussing the right and wrong of history, arguing whether the war is just, whether the three views are correct, and whether some characters are the Virgin Mary. What I pay great attention to is the choices made by the boiling blood under the iceberg in this group of ice seas when faced with difficulties. Yes, every character here is a robber and pirate who has killed countless people. According to our moral standards, no one is a good person. What's the point of discussing right and wrong. It is lazy to let the protagonist choose between good and evil, and it is a wonderful screenwriter to let them swing between the great evil and the small evil, the great good and the small good. The predicament that the character faces is also the predicament we face, and the psychological punishment that the character receives is also the psychological punishment to us. Torfin's first growth was when his father was killed by the enemy in front of him, and his second growth was when Asherath, who was also his father and enemy, died in his arms. Asherat's growth started with his father. The prince's two growths, one is that Lagunal, who is also a teacher and also a father, was sitting together for dinner half an hour ago, and was suddenly killed and placed on the table. Killing the father with a knife. All growth is related to the parents, whether it is the approval of the parents or the resistance of the patriarchy, the awakening of the younger generations comes from the parents. This cruel growth brings the protagonists the first choice to inherit your beliefs or resist you. belief. Just like when I watched Gun God a while ago, I felt that all kinds of people brutally abused the protagonist, which was a double torture of the protagonist's body and mind, but his firmness was a punishment for me, because I was a person who constantly swayed in ideals. Watching the Battle of the Ice Sea is also the same feeling. When I face the same choice, can I still strengthen my belief? At this time, I can always see my own narrowness, "Everyone is not conscious, everyone is a slave to something."

So please be firm. Strictly speaking, I wrote a lot and didn't say anything about The Battle of the Ice Sea. In short, this is an animation that different people will think differently when they see it. It doesn't talk about the plot or the setting. Full marks exist. The end of the prologue is Torfin's dagger falling off, and the transition of the dagger's next few shots. These few scenes alone are enough to consecrate the gods. Torfin's father said before his death that a real warrior does not need a sword. At this time, the dagger dropped by Torfin corresponds to the beginning of this paragraph. After the death of his parents, the next season's Tolphin really stepped into a warrior.

END OF THE PROLOGUE.

Vinland Saga quotes

  • Leif Erikson: Not all warriors fight on the battlefield with a sword in hand. A sailor makes his living battling the sea.

  • Ylva: Well, if they're dead, then that's the end of it. Crying about it gets you nothing but an empty stomach.
