- Thorfinn (Japanese: トルフィン, Hepburn: Torufin) is the protagonist of the manga Vinland Saga by Makoto Yukimura. He is a teenage warrior in Askeladd's company, though he hates his commander for slaying his father Thors and has sworn to kill him in a duel. To earn the right to engage in these duels, he must complete difficult feats for Askeladd, such as sabotage or the killing of enemy generals. After over a decade of being a viking, the grown up Thorfinn starts questioning his actions and reflects on his original dream. Based on Thorfinn Karlsefni, Makoto Yukimura created the fictional character as a soldier who does horrible actions as viking and would grow up to be more caring in latter chapters of the manga in order to understand other people and redeem himself. In the anime adaptation of Vinland Saga, multiple voice actors used the their talent to portray Thorfinn's both child and older personas. Initial critical response to Thorfinn involves his reaction to his father's death and how he works for his actual killer, Askeladd, giving him mixed reactions due to his initial hatred but interesting fight sequences. His growth across the following story arcs was praised for giving the character further depths. The voice actors behind Thorfinn were also praised. (en)
