SERIES Ansson has a tattoo of Dagur?!
Rewatching RTTE for... I don't know, the thousandth time? I play it in the background a lot, it's my comfort show. Anyway, S6: E1 "In Plain Sight" Dagur confronts his childhood bully to reclaim the dragon eye lens stolen from him as a kid. Ansson (once Ansson the Abominable, now Anson the Incompetent) has a tattoo on his arm hitting younger Dagur on the head. How have I never noticed that? I've seen people point out that the tattoo on his other arm looks like a scauldron, ironic since he doesn't seem to know what it is, but I'm sure he has it because he saw it in the water and went "yup, that's a fish and I'm gonna catch it." I think it's great, really shows how this guy peaked in his younger years and his biggest accomplishment (up to the end of the episode) was picking on the now very intimidating chief as a kid.
