What should I watch first AOT or Vinland saga

Both of these anime have been in my back burner for the better part of 2 years and now i wanna watch both. The commitment of AOT isn’t a huge issue for me because of me watching stuff like one piece and Naruto, and the gore of AOT is definetly no issue because of my love for Tokyo ghoul. All in all though I heard amazing things about both anime and I wanna watch them both, but I just don’t know what to watch first.

The second season of Vinland Saga sucks. It has awful pacing.

No-Comparison-27582026-01-28 18:57

AOT for sure

DialgasFinalBoss2026-01-28 18:57

Thank you brother I’m gonna start watching it now

Specific-Glass74722026-01-28 18:59

Vinland Saga, definitely.

AlasdairPlays2026-01-28 19:04

Vinland Saga 100x better than AOT

sapperRichter2026-01-28 19:25

False

Simple-Sector40232026-01-28 19:05

vinalnd is more chracter driven while aot is more plot. but both still excel in either categories tho.

I have never seen vinland saga but I have watched AOT and honestly it's one of the most immersive and exciting pieces of content I have ever watched, every development just opens new doors and it's just great.

So that's my thoughts lol maybe I should check out vinland saga as I've been sleeping on it also.

AOT is finished. Vinland has yet to release more seasons.
So the decision is easy AOT first and then Vinland.

You should definitely watch both, since both are amazing stories. I say start with whatever setting sounds the most interesting to you. If it's an alternate reality with supernatural elements, theen AOT. If it's historical in setting that you want, then start with Vinland.

The creators of both are mega fans of the other series. AOT first because it's finished. Vinland Saga is just halfway through. Vinland Saga is more of a character study though even though it has its action.

AoT. Vinland Saga was garbage. Great s1 OP and ED though!
