Season 2 of the Vinland Saga picks up where season 1 left off. We get the Slave Arc as Thorfinn transitions from seeking revenge to being enslaved and losing his only purpose in life.
However, he meets Einar, who helps him find a new meaning and rekindle his fire. In other news, King Canute will focus on conquering new territories to bring his people to the Promised Land.
If you’ve watched this anime, you might be wondering when the next episode will be released. So, wonder no more! Here’s everything you need to know about Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 5, including the release date, time, and where to watch it.

When is Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 6 coming out?
The sixth installment of Vinland Saga Season 2 comes out on Monday, February 13 at approximately 3:30 PM (GMT), 7:30 AM (PT), and 9:30 AM (ET) (CT). Of course, it depends on how fast the platform uploads new episodes. You can still expect this to happen pretty close to the game’s release.
Vinland Saga didn’t come out with a dubbed, so you’ll have to watch it in the original Japanese with subtitles (which, let’s face it, is the only way to watch it!) The sixth episode, “I Want a Horse”, takes 25 minutes.

He orders Gunnar to have them beheaded as this is a practice he has already banned. Floki is happy Canute traveled to see him in person. Canute admits that he also came to deal with Thorkill, who is still angry because he was forced to stop fighting when Mercia called for a ceasefire.
Eadric asks what this means, and Canute tells him that he can turn Mercia to ash very quickly. Then, in exchange for peace, he wants Ethelred’s head. In April 1016, the following year, Ethelred II is said to have died of an illness. Edmund, Ethelred’s son, also appears to have died of an illness in November of the same year. Canute becomes king of England in the year 1018.
Vinland Saga Season 2 Episode 6: Spoilers
While I was wrong about Thorfinn and Canute last week, I was right in assuming that Thorkill wasn’t far behind. While it’s always entertaining to watch the giant warrior, he doesn’t seem to be happy with Canute, who might later chase one of them.
However, since I doubt Thorkill and Canute will get into a fight anytime soon, let’s see if I can anticipate what will happen next week. Next week, I believe we are returning to the story of Thorfinn and Einar.

When we last saw them, things were tense between them, with Einar wondering if he could still view Thorfinn the same way after knowing about all the people he killed. I have a hunch that things will be awkward at first before Einar agrees to look past it.

The second season of Vinland Saga will have 24 episodes just like the first season. So after this week’s chapter, there are 18 more episodes to come.
Where can I watch Vinland Saga Season 2?
Tokyo MX, BS11 and GBS will all show Vinland Saga. You can also watch it on Netflix or Crunchyroll.
