Featured review
Vinland Saga sets the ultimate standard for animation, humanization/characterization, and overall story telling- special thanks to MAPPA
I will admit- I had my reservations about the second season of Vinland once i heard little details here and there about what the second season could look like, and how it would contrast to the first season. As soon as I heard about "Farmland" arc, I winced just a bit. Even after the first season, I personally believed Vinland Saga to be amongst the very best currently airing anime, and potentially one of the best seasons of not just Anime, but tv in general- that I've ever seen. I partly fell in love with it because of its historical parallels to real life events but also the action sequences and depiction of intense conflicts on the battle fields of the both the war and political realm of that time period. HOW IS A SEASON DEDICATED TO RAISING CROPS and milking cows GOING TO TOP THAT??
I have to say after the first few episodes- albeit It still was top of the line quality production and writing, I was still uncertain if itd achieve the same quality that s1 did. However, not only did it end up doing just that, but what I find even more impressive are the aspects it exponentially improved in (yes, albeit at the trade off of action)- and most of it stems from DEEP character development, and the teams ability to translate these complex and compelling characters onto the big screen, matched with unmitigated raw humanized emotion and intensity. All done at a level that only a handful of other TV SERIES are capable of doing!
I think beyond Anime, tv and film professionals from all sorts of different markets can take many pages out of Vinlands execution process. Because this show thus far has been nothing short of exceptional. Vinland's team don't underestimate the intelligence of the audience, they trust our ability to be patient, our ability to be reflective and inquisitive about the way some of the ways our world came about, and our ability to be invested in real PEOPLE conflicts that stretch beyond a battle field. And they have the secret ingredients to creating a captivating, mesmerizing spectacle of a story- which sometimes aren't so secret and are more simpler than one may think.
Top 5 anime of all time for me as of now. Onto s3!
