* DuelingDubs: Due to licensing reasons, the first season of the anime was dubbed ''twice'' in both English and French languages: at first, respectively Creator/SentaiFilmworks and Kaze announced regional releases of the anime dubbed in their respective languages, but then... suddenly the Japanese region of Creator/{{Netflix}} revealed that the service provided dubs in various languages through the credits, including those English and French, but recorded in different studios and with different casts. [[NoExportForYou But they're currently available only in Japan]] probably because Amazon Prime Video still has the global rights.

* Askeladd is [[spoiler:a direct descendant of ''KingArthur'']]. This is a series where the ''mangaka'' [[DoingItForTheArt DID do the research]], and yet the main character is practically a [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot Viking Ninja]]. It's got Vikings ''hauling their ships across dry land'' to assault a fortress in the opening chapters; the legendary King Canute starts off as a [[ShelteredAristocrat sheltered]] [[DudeLooksLikeALady pretty boy]], then TookALevelInBadass and ''calmed TheBerserker'' with sheer charisma. The berserker achieves that state via [[MushroomSamba hallucinogenic mushrooms]]. And then there's Thorkell the Tall, a BoisterousBruiser who is completely insane even by Viking standards, sinks ships by tossing logs at them and kills a charging horse with '''one punch'''.
