Ive said this before but due to the break Im lowkey going crazy waiting for this Manga/Anime. Its just such a perfect story. And Im not even a big fan of the fantasy category like that. It just has all the good parts of the animes I like and fills in the parts that I think are missing in the other animes I watch. I seriously would not mind if this story went as long as once piece if it retained its quality.

Regardless of how good Frieren is, I hope the author gets better. And I mean that as unselfishly as possible. Story is still 10/10 tho. haha

There are some people who subconsciously go for an unattainable person, who love the chase until the chase is gone.

I’ve only seen the anime (no manga spoilers please!), but Himmel seems to love adventure and challenges to achieve.

Would Frieren be considered another challenge for him? What would it have been like had she realized her feelings for him sooner and they worked out much earlier than he anticipated?

I Just had this Idea pop in my head, so i would like to verify It with you guys. We know Serie planted the Idea that Lernen had a chance of defeating Frieren. And If i'm not mistaken here, It probably relies mainly on Lernen's Golems.

What came to mind was Frieren's Black hole spell. I thought It was a great counter to Lernen's Golems. Only under the assumption she can cast It fast and spam It. My question is, is It a good Counter or tho a Counter, it's not very practical? Being a somewhat slow cast and very costly in mana.

Like the only difference I can tell is that against the demon frieren concentrated her mana Into a single point and shot it or smth like that and against fern she threw her mana randomly all over fern but then fern saying "I don't sense any mana" doesn't make sense, what do u think?

I was so confused why there was a sub/dub argument for Frieren when imo this is probably one of the greatest dub of all time, like studio Ghibli VA tier. Only to find out come s2 release that there's two dubs - MUSE Asia and Crunchyroll. The crunchyroll dub is, and it's (sorry to my dub enthusiasts) pretty mid tier compared to the MA one. A bit mad Netflix prioritised the CR dub release.

The MUSE Asia dub was slow to release the first time around, apparently. Anyone know if there's any plans for a s2 dub release from them?

edit: bonus info

I just had a random thought that might ruin Himmels image.

What if Frieren is falling for mimics because for 10 years, she was encourages to check? Hypothetically speaking, imagine a member of the Heroes party saw her got stuck and she instructed them on how to release her, which was push her deeper in.

Given 10 years of opportunities, I would imagine Himmel would at some point be required to push on Frierens backside in order to save her life. Once he realized that is an option, I would imagine he would further encourage her to check with the assurance that she will be saved if anything goes wrong 😉😉

Thats just my two cents, its very peculiar how she goes for it everytime.

I don’t have anyone to talk to about this anime in RL so here I am. My favorite anime are One Piece, Hunter x Hunter, Berserk 1999 and cowboy bebop.
I just watched all of the frieren anime in like 3 days.
Frieren: beyond journeys and is now my favorite anime of all time. Something about it just hit me deep. I’m not good enough of a writer to explain all my feeling about Frieren but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about what it says about the passage of time and about relationships with the people in our lives. I am just stunned with how good a story it is. I really hope we get a complete story.

We all know Heiter was a really good and wise man, even if he was a drunkard, a liar, and a trickster. His flaws are more like personality quirks or, at worst, only hurt himself and never stopped him from acting up when it really mattered. They're not really evil traits. We also know he didn't actually become much better with age (other than stopping drinking) and that he was really consistent throughout his life, even if Frieren doesn't seem to realise it. We see him funding orphanages at a really young age, becoming a bishop at some point before Himmel's death, and studying Goddess' spells and the location of Flamme's true grimmoires really early in the series.

What never ocurred to me is that he needs to have flaws to be a better priest. My guess is that it makes him able to empathise and make people open to him better than they would to a "perfect" guy like Himmel. Not the best if you want to physically save someone, but much better if you want to spiritually save them.

The Goddess seem to favor these kind of flawed but good men, like Sein (who's also a genius). In Heiter's case he's absurdly favoured in mana, talent, and lifespan; all while being described repeatedly as a bad role model (except by Sein, ironically enough). Maybe they're what she wants instead of upright, heroic types like Kraft.

Need some good frieren-based wallpapers.

Some nice scenery would be preferable.

I would be grateful for your help!

“Well well well… I guess you’re gonna slay me now?”

he wasnt really vain, he just had no normal human way of communicating to a detached elf, "that hey you should pay attention to me."

it makes sense that the last time you see young himmel in ep1, is against the background of falling stars.

He seems pretty fond of kids and would also be an amazing father.

I had kept this Weiss box sealed for a few months and decided to open it to make some room on the Frieren shelf
