I have no idea what this show is, but I like it.

Right off in the start the animation is beatiful and has a distinct art style. The cinematography and editing are really creative. The 3d used with the typical 2d animation is incredibly smooth compared to Mappa's Shigeki No Kyojin. And then in the amazing intro I realized this was made by WIT studios. This will be amazing. Everything about this reminds me of "Vikings' and I like that.

Thorfinn and his family are incredibly interesting. I sadly know that they will die due to tropes. I liked the relationships in the family and the interesting character of the Thors. Leif Ericson was incredibly fun and that one like guy with the chain was pretty intimitating.

Thorfinn sounds like he will become a great protagonist. But he doesn't have much depth as of now. If maybe we got a deeper look into him the episode would even be better. This episode didn't even kick off the story. Apart from introducing our characters and world this episode did very little.

9/10 A great start to what seems like a great show.
