Synopsis
As a child, Thorfinn sat at the feet of the great Leif Ericson and thrilled to hear wild tales of a distant land to the west. But his youthful fantasies were shattered by an unexpected attack from the mercenary Viking Askeladd. Raised by the Vikings responsible for his father's murder, Thorfinn became a fearsome warrior bent on killing their leader, Askeladd, to exact his revenge. Thus, through overcoming obstacles, Thorfinn continues to dream of living in a fertile land to the west, a land without war or slavery… the land Leif called Vinland.
The first season of the anime premiered in July 2019 and was streamed on Amazon Prime Video . However, the new season does not yet have a release date.
