“Vinland Saga” episode 6 and the preceding installment were not based on the manga series, but also not fillers. These episodes are original anime contents the flesh out the events during Thorfinn’s childhood, especially after the death of his father, Thors.
The anime-original contents are slated to conclude in “Vinland Saga” episode 6 before the anime series continues to adapt stories from the manga. It might not be possible to predict the exact events that will happen in the next episode, but the manga gives fans the overall premise.
‘Vinland Saga’ episode 6 plot: Thorfinn in the battlefield
The very short video teaser of “Vinland Saga” episode 6 shows a younger Thorfinn in the middle of a battlefield. In another cutscene, fans can also see Askeladd staring at the orphan with splatters of blood on his face.
Aside from providing more context from the point of Thors's death, the two-part anime original episodes also opened the discussion among fans on Askeladd's real reason for keeping Thorfinn alive. Perhaps “Vinland Saga” episode 6 will give more ideas in these topics as both characters fight in the same battlefield but not against one another. Many fans believe that Askeladd saw Thorfinn's potential of becoming a great warrior, so he decided to keep him alive.
'Vinland Saga' episode 6 spoilers: What happens to Thorfinn
Avid fans who have also been following the manga series may recall that Thorfinn was seen by a mother and a daughter almost lifeless by the river. This scene takes place during the height of Denmark's invasion of London and the scene that follows Thors's death. In this case, “Vinland Saga” episode 6 will elaborate more on the events that took place before Thorfinn passed out.
It is also not surprising if “Vinland Saga” episode 6 will include a sequence where Thorfinn takes another shot at killing Askeladd. These anime original episodes have also done a great job in detailing the contrast between that happy Thorfinn and how he was slowly filled with anger after Thors's death. “Vinland Saga” episode 6 will air on Sunday, Aug. 11 in Japan. The episode will stream on Amazon Prime Video a few hours later for fans in other regions.
