As part of the celebration of the anime’s second anniversary, Vinland Saga has revealed that a second season of the series is now on the way! There’s no release date or window set for the new season just yet, but that means it’s now the perfect time to catch up with the first season before this new slate of episodes finally hits. Sentai Filmworks officially describes Vinland Saga as such, “Raised in peace and on fanciful tales of a mythical far-off land without war, young Thorfinn dreams of someday traveling to the fabled Vinland. That dream is shattered when threats from the legendary Jomsvikings put him in the path of a band of Viking mercenaries, forcing Thorfinn’s father to sacrifice himself to the band’s leader: Askeladd.
Alone and far from home, Thorfinn joins the forces of his father’s slayer, determined to compel a duel with the mercenary leader and avenge his father. However, Thorfinn quickly finds himself ill prepared for a soldier’s life in the long war between Denmark and England…where the opportunistic Vikings earn coin by fighting for both sides. Now he must learn how to fight and survive, even if it means facing friend and clan in battle in VINLAND SAGA!”
