    the concept of "letting go and letting bygones be bygones" after a weird foreigner killed most of your tribe (regardless of reasoning) is a pretty high minded concept. I don't blame the viking chief for going out and trying to avenge his family at the risk of his only remaining son.

        And you're probably doing stuff that'll make your-... well, SOMEONE'S great grandchildren squirm in uncomfortability. I'm not interested huffing about outside moral standings on a world that doesn't have that abolitionist philosophy in an interconnected modern civilization, people slaved people for thousands of years before we started actively trying to end it a mere 200 years ago. This is Primal, not A Critique of Proto-Fascism by the Only Communist That Lifts and his Enby Frickdino.

          I mean you can argue about that type of thing but generally slavery being acceptable in society isn’t really relevant. Like the slaves don’t care and neither would the friends of the slaves, they just wanna be free. Like the Vikings pretty much had it coming because those people would always fight back

            I will if YOUR argument for why they weren't narratively logical is a condemnation from morals they weren't reaching for.

              The historical context is more or less irrelevant. The whole point is that it takes a page from Conan, the main character could care less about whether the society’s economy depends on it, if it’s wrong, it’s kind of just wrong even if necessary

          If you enslave people, you can't b***h about your tribe getting genocide'd.

      The biggest thing about the whole arc is that it's about the cycle of violence and how there are no winners so they were both in the right in trying to help his friends and trying to get revenge for his village

    Genndy for tricking me into thinking this was a brutal, uncaring story when in reality, it was the most basic b***h "good guys vs bad guys" story one could conceive.
    Viking dude died like a weak b***h after having an entire genocide's worth of setup. And the ending was disgustingly happy, on top of being actually disgusting.

      See it was like that. As long as Spear stayed in his wild continent.
      The second he got on that fricking boat everything went wrong.
      We're seeing the same thing in Unicorn Warriors. The second they left London the entire show went to shit as far as pacing and content.
      Genndy can only start strong he never sticks a landing.

    The Primal Vikings in general were massive morons.

    >Injure you, but Grug is clearly not interested in killing you and just wants some info you can play with because how would he fricking know. Instead of misleading and warning the village he attacks like a moron and gets btfo
    >Grug releases one batch of slaves and suddenly his giant lizard dragon monster thing shows up. He clearky just wants to leave, but we try fricking him up with our best bear riding units
    >Oh our best fricking guys got utterly trounced. Better send our women and children out to try to kill these guys instead of letting em go and come up with a surprise / coordinated attack later because clearly rushing at them isnt working
    >Chief and son supposedly invoke some evil god being and get cucked out of Valhalla
    >Even with demigod hax at his disposal he is made to look like a chump and doesnt even get his full "revenge" as Fang, the one who did like 80% of the damage to his village, survived.

    >Entire second season is about him freeing slaves and being generally selfless and heroic
    Wow, really fricking Primal. Really captured the brutality and unforgiveness of nature by making the MC a one-note hero with a sacrifice and everything.
    Reminds me of another character who likes tricking people into thinking he's more morally dubious than he actually is.

        Because they were trying to kill him. And he looked disgusted after doing it, which makes 0 sense.

        He didnt care about the slaves much. He just wanted Mira but she wouldnt leave without em

        I don't remember much of this bullshit show, but i think he saved the giga homie out of kindness.

          Spear is constantly shown to be a very empathetic and emotionally active person. He also had never on screen killed a kid before, and showed genuine distress when fangs kids were killed after knowing them for under a minute. He also was shown to know and imagine humans as like him the episode before. Seeing women and children fight suicidally was something he'd never seen before. I don't understand people who head cannon Spear as this mindless doomslayer Wana be. He's constantly been shown as a very sensitive man, that's the point, hes early man, in all its Primal want and wonder.

            Kinda takes the "Primal" out of it when the MC acts by emotions and not... you know... PRIMAL instincts.
            >I don't understand people who head cannon Spear as this mindless doomslayer Wana be.
            No one headcanons this homosexual as something more than a homosexual. It's just sad that we were tricked into thinking this show was going to try something new and exciting. It's just the hero trope but in a caveman setting and with graphic violence.

              Primal doesn't mean screaming moron rape ape.
              It means raw, unfiltered, wild. Spear is very much a creature of emotions. It's why he made a shitty raft and crossed the ocean for a girl he met just the other day.

                Google doesn't agree. Google says it relates to the near beginning of evolution. You know, that time when there were no emotions and it was just PRIMAL, i repeat,

                [...]

                <<< instincts that was driving every creature.
                Stop being a disingenuous homosexual, the trailers for this shit showed nothing but Spear brutally killing things like a screaming moron rape ape. Nothing even hinted to a tragic backstory or a shitty romance arc. Excuuuuuuse me for thinking this would be interesting.

                Emotions are Primal Instints moron where do you think they come from grade 12?

                See this is why that other guy was calling you a sonic fan, this level of autism right here. And yes emotions are instincts, they are what animals have before thoughts and after mechanical drives that govern basic actions. You watched a show about a cave man and complain you saw a cave Man.

                Huh? But i thought that was an instinct too.
                >And yes emotions are instincts
                Bitch, i'm not gonna explain you what instincts are just so your unconscious bias can keep making you say moronic shit. You're not too stupid to google that yourself.
                What you ARE too stupid to do is admit you're wrong, which is why you're desperately clinging onto the semantics of "instinct" instead of tackling my other points against the show. Makes sense that a disingenuous piece would attract disingenuous homosexuals.

    The vikings were the aggressors no matter how you slice it, but the motivations for Spear and Viking dad were the same. The biggest difference is Spear was able to accept his families lost as something he couldn't do anything about and the viking didn't. Spear lucked into his revenge and the viking destroyed himself seeking it out. Fundamentally both were just living by their Primal natures, even if one was in the wrong. Take from others to feed yourself, the viking took from Spear, and Spear took from them in return. I guess the vikings biggest problem was they went looking for trouble, where as Spear and Fang largely did not.

    Have you noticed that every member of the viking family died from a fall?

    >the girl dies by falling on top of a rock and hitting her head.
    >mother dies because Fang hits her to the ground.
    >the son dies crashing to the ground.
    >the father dies when Spear pushes him off the cliff.

    I think it's a metaphor for how their civilization was destined to fall.
