@yxxnxx by your logic, every trope is like every other trope, just like Berserk is exactly like every other anime that involve dudes playing with swords. Every harem is exactly like every other harem. Every girl likes boy and vice versa is exactly the same. And yet here you are stating that Frieren isn't the same and Berserk isn't the same or any other anime you like isn't the same just like the rest of us. You're one of us dude and we love you for it.
@@hunterofdarkness8329 Actually not. The 1000 year old style looked like old greek or roman style when translated to our world. Barefoot and sandals and such with togas and such. The style of a thousand years ago would be more what her Master wore. She does wear the modern day garb for her world, but doesn't wear anything too fancy. She doesn't stand out at all, and looks quite common. Thusly, it is easy to just underestimate her by looks alone. However, that only goes for people like humans and any of the other mortal races, as Demons *don't put any stock in appearances* and instead focus only on Mana. In summation: Yeah, basically Glamouring gear to look like low level equipment, or stuff commoners would wear.
They know Frieren party defeated the old demons, and Frieren said the new young demons are pathetic lol I guess the demons in the current era is really in decline.
Well its not that demons are weak, its just that Freiren's, and by extension Fern's, combat style is specifically focused at demons. We always see how much stark struggles against demons when compared to Freiren and Fern.
frieren's party defeated the most powerful demon of all time, but it's not like the current demons are weak solitar beat frieren within an inch of her life and frieren was somewhat confident that she was probably fucked until she freed fern from di agolze macht is so strong frieren was straight up "we're not fighting him, he will kill us if we do" for half the arc and only agreed to analyze some memories. This and she only decided to fight once she had a perfect counter to his ability and STILL wasn't confident she could kill him grausam back in the day nearly got the entire hero party killed and would have done so if not for HIMmel coming in clutch rivale was toe to toe with eisen, even winning at that from direct close range, in a 1 on 1 rivale would have blitzed and one tapped her schlacht's pretty much as strong as the entire hero party at once, being comparable to the hero of the south who killed 3 of the 7 sages while fighting all 7 of them + schlacht himself frieren and her party only killed 2 of the 7 sages aura's just on the weaker side of the 7 sages and chose to be cocky against frieren due to mana supression
@@Vertix07911 and solitar wasn't even on the level of that one demon who appeared in the time travel arc. She didn't met Frieren on that one, that demon might even be stronger than Serie
Frieren said Demons don't have real emotions or rather they fake them but most of the demons we saw so far showed emotions : -Aura was chocked and scared. -Wire dude was smiling and got cocky when he thought he had Frieren trapped -Lügner had pride and rage or disgust learning Fern was masking her Mana -Even Linie who seemed to be the closest from having Zero emotion, Got triggered when Stark said she was a cheap copy of his master Eisen. Then she gave the impression of regrets after getting sliced by Stark (She tryed to reach the moon with her hand before vanishing). For short, many emotions that would have no connection with them trying to trick humans. Sure they are bad guys but I doubt demons have no feeling like Frieren pretend. I may be wrong but maybe Frieren use the good old coping mecanism of dehumanizing the ennemy to have no remorse killing them. Which is understandable since they almost wiped-out Elfs.
Gotta love that Frieren spends no time talking to or gloating over the win. No monologue. Just "kill yourself" and walks away, cool mages don't look at explosions style.
If you think about it, if frieren picked up that scale, she would be literally unstoppable. Her mana is that of an elf who's lived over 1000 years. There are VERY few people around who would have anywhere close to that, even including other elves. It'd be the ultimate weapon against demons, because she knows they're practically ALL weaker than her mana wise. But she's frieren, oh well xD
She doesn't need or want that kind of crutch to depend on. She's confident in her skills and knowledge to the point she doesn't need to really on a gimmick of compulsion magic.
just picking up the scales wouldn't give her aura's magic, humankind cant use demon magic unless it's virtually perfectly constructed like zoltraak was
The scales are just an accessory to the spell itself. You cannot obtain the spell from just the scales. Recreating a Demon spell for regular use involves extensive analysis, like was done with Zoltrak. Plus, just before this, Frieren called Aura’s magic “truly disgusting”. It is the one and only time we have ever heard Frieren describe any magic of any kind negatively.
@@adamwu4565 also her teacher is the one that taught her to suppress her mana and trick the demons. If she showed how truly powerful she was, either the demons would hide or would be drawn to fight her enmass.
@@dviant0056 Doflamingo controlled riku to kill beloved citizens and citizens didn't even know why their beloved king killed them. He made family members kill others. Even worse is making slave toys everyone forgets who can't even feel anything on the skin or shed any tears. There was this toy guy who kept convincing his wife that he is her husband when she was dating another man infront of him (because she forgot she had a husband) but wife thought he is a harraser and police took him away. Another guy couldn't come close to his child because the wife prevents thinking of his as a harraser or kidnapper. And then in wano he sold smile fruits to kaido which was another disaster to the citizens. Even killed his father and brother
She's basically like 'Oh, you hold yourself so highly? You're *nothing* to me. Not even worth my magic to kill you. Do it *yourself* .... Bitch.' *Walks the fuck away*
It doesn't really mean "beyond journey's end." "Sousou" is basically sending someone off at a funeral. So it is a double meaning, just not exactly what's in the English subtitle. It's like the title being Frieren the Funereal - at first glance, it seems like it's reflecting the sadness of her journey seeing off her friends who've died. And then it hits you with the double meaning - she's also Frieren the Funereal because she'll straight up put you in the casket. It's got serious "call an ambulance - but not for me" energy.
the english titles are always trash and misleading, most just change things to sound "epic" but end up sounding stupid. which is probably why you get manga these days that are essentially a synopsis of the show rather than a clever title, to circumvent translators and their stupid creative liberty.
@@jeronimo196 It's a play on words using the Japanese word 葬送. It literally means to attend someone's funeral or to send them off at their funeral. But it has a double meaning, like sending people to their funeral by killing them (since the word just uses the kanji for funeral 葬 and send 送). The demons just mimic human speech and have no concept of funerals or mourning for their kin, so they understand the word only the other way. That is why it is usually translated as "slayer". It's a very liberal translation, but it's impossible/difficult to translate world play like this well.
I love how she called Aura's magic disgusting, its the only time she bad mouths magic up to this point. Before, the only times we see her show excitement is when she gets wind of or hands on a new spell, and they are mostly ones considered stupid or gimmicky, like one that sees through clothing, or one that make shaved ice from thin air for snow cones and such. She has no interest whatsoever in something like this demon's spells, even Zoltrak she only bothered to learn as a means to kill demons and only after it had been thoroughly analysed and transformed by humans to the point that it became an anti demon spell, different from the original in nearly every way save for appearance and it's piercing power so she picked it up and calls it "basic attack magic" because it was analysed so much that humans can defend against it with relative ease if they know basic defense magic, because of this it became an anti demon spell as only a demon would be so arrogant that they would never waste mana on protection, that would be acknowledging that your prey is something more. I am so surprised by how good this fantasy anime is, in an ocean of fantasy anime. I even love that demons in this one arent a race that is practically the exact same as human, they really are nothing more than monsters that learned language to fool their prey, their society isnt advanced, they dont build great societies or cities, they dont have anything resembling law and order further than might makes right, no family, no concept of it or emotion further than the joy of killing and dominating
I really liked your interpretation of the demons, I was honestly getting really frustrated when everyone started acting like "ooh no they aren't evil they're just misunderstood 😢" like it really drives me up the wall because throughout the series we literally see that demons do not have any sense of empathy, they do not have compassion and unlike stray cats or dogs, no amount of 'domestication' can change them
@@aurelian2668 Domestication is not the same as taming something. It takes generations of genetic alteration and selective breeding to get the desired results of docile human compatible demon. It cannot be done in a single day.
@@aurelian2668 I made a reply to your comment CZcams has this strange thing in which certain replies are hidden unless you sort comments by most recent. Go check it out if you can.
I love to think that when they first met Aura years ago, Frieren's mana already exceed Aura. It just that she doesn't want to take risk by having to fight her own teammates as maybe Himmel, Eisen and Heiter's mana pool were below hers.
If u watch closely on flashback, himmel blitzed and manage to slash her, giving no chance for aura to even use her spell Spoiler below Himmel is actually really damn fast, even grausam, another great demon is surprised by how fast he is
I love how the series portrays demons' weakness is how they openly size up each other's mana like animals would ("monsters that learned to talk") and assume everyone does.
“Hiding your mana is stupid” No whats stupid is giving your enemies free information. Hide your mana so they cant tell how strong you are or how mana spells you can shoot. Life and death fights can easily be influenced by information or the lack thereof.
that goes both ways though, which is why Frieren still puts out enough that she appears as "strong mage" to anyone with detection abilities go too low and appear as too weak and you invite unnecessary conflict from bullies and opportunistic scavengers.
I love the character type that is humble but extremely powerful only using enough of their power that is needed. She's like a secret god, only getting involved when all other methods are exhausted. she lets her party do the work and grow since the need for attention and celebration are beneath her. Can make for a truly menacing character that can shift the story if they ever change their mind. I like that they do show this possibility later on
I have a feeling that this was not frierens full mana capacity. She still believes in deceiving demons and if there happens to be another demon that saw they would know. Pretty sure she held back some for just in case
Yo, I've seen Vegeta and Goku be cold to their enemies. I've seen Sasuke and Itachi be cold af too. Using people as pawns and dealing killing blows at will. But I think Frieren has secured herself as my favorite number 1 defeat of an enemy. She didn't need to do anything but pretend she was caught. And she didn't even need to kill her enemy herself. Cold as ice, and bad as all sin. Frieren takes the cake.
Frieren's unsuppressed mana is basically Serei's suppressed mana. As you can see when Fern was watching Serei's mana, you thought it was unsuppressed but its not. Imagine releasing out all of that mana 😅
the one and possible (currently) the only anime that i can stand watching even if it has 100 episodes...if they keep the quality and everything they're doing up until now that is...
I love this scene and how demons are portrayed in this anime. During the entire fight, Aura acts like she's in control. So do the other demons. She believes herself to be strong and unbeatable. Yet the second she realizes that Frieren is way stronger than her and that she's about to die, she cries like a child, tries to ignore the reality of her situation, begs for her life... The Joker said that in their last moments, people show you who they really are. And this couldn't be truer here. Aura is a cowardly weakling masquerading as strong. Same goes for that other demon who tried to decapitate Frieren. He acted all smug, yet the second he realized he was about to die, his first reflex was to beg. I find it fascinating how an entire specie that worships power is so pitifully weak at its core and doesn't seem to understand that real strength comes from your willpower, not from how hard you can hit.
i think it fits perfectly, they are oportunistic individualistic predators that have no other value than themselves - of course they will be smug bullies that turn to begging for theyr life the moment they realize they are going to die. they have no concept of honor, dignity or compassion only selfish needs and urges they cant control because they never had any reason to learn how to ... my personal theory is that elves are the third evolution of monster->demon->elf line because they also lack several fundamental "human" characteristics that are necessary for any species to last and are very close in characteristics to demons except having that extra layer of basic empathy and drive for other endeavors than just animalistic urge to feed and dominate others.
This anime is so good. They don’t even do this in one episode. They lead up to this with the two episodes and even then, she gives Aura so many off ramps to repent/try for redemption, and Aura’s ego can’t fathom what’s happening.
Aura's mistake was using this item without knowing how old Frieren was as an elf. She used this against people so often that she became careless to think about it. She should have noticed that something was wrong if her opponent wasn't afraid to use the object.
She did think something was wrong. Which is why she looked so carefully at Frieren's mana. But she saw no signs of supression. Its like losing to a game mechanic that you didnt even know existed
I like the imagery there at the end. Where Freiren’s hair is normally draped over her front, when she reveals the true extent of her mana her hair becomes draped down her back. A nice little detail.
You mean extremely arbitrary and hard to manage scales. First you need to know the activation spell for this item. Second you need to have more mana than your target. Third most likely it was picked up by Graf Granat when he was cleaning up the area
It's dangerous only because of the user. If just about anyone uses it, the chances of having the user being controlled is extremely high. That being said, frieren probably took it during the clean up.

I even love that demons in this one arent a race that is practically the exact same as human, they really are nothing more than monsters that learned language to fool their prey, their society isnt advanced, they dont build great societies or cities, they dont have anything resembling law and order further than might makes right, no family, no concept of it or emotion further than the joy of killing and dominating
I really liked your interpretation of the demons, I was honestly getting really frustrated when everyone started acting like "ooh no they aren't evil they're just misunderstood 😢" like it really drives me up the wall because throughout the series we literally see that demons do not have any sense of empathy, they do not have compassion and unlike stray cats or dogs, no amount of 'domestication' can change them
@@harlequinofspades3762 Domesticating Demons is theoretically possible, it's just gonna take a lot of time, trial, and error.
@@thenewguyinred no we already saw how thay went down in el dorado
@@aurelian2668 Domestication is not the same as taming something. It takes generations of genetic alteration and selective breeding to get the desired results of docile human compatible demon. It cannot be done in a single day.

This was such an awesome scene
I love to think that when they first met Aura years ago, Frieren's mana already exceed Aura. It just that she doesn't want to take risk by having to fight her own teammates as maybe Himmel, Eisen and Heiter's mana pool were below hers.
Aura fled from himmel
If u watch closely on flashback, himmel blitzed and manage to slash her, giving no chance for aura to even use her spell
Spoiler below
Himmel is actually really damn fast, even grausam, another great demon is surprised by how fast he is
@@user-oz3oe6px8jHe was.
Reminds me a bit of how they couldn't see Death's soul in Soul Eater, because they're inside it; It encompasses the entire city.
Still gives me chills how badass this moment is considering all the build up to it
I love how the series portrays demons' weakness is how they openly size up each other's mana like animals would ("monsters that learned to talk") and assume everyone does.
“Hiding your mana is stupid” No whats stupid is giving your enemies free information. Hide your mana so they cant tell how strong you are or how mana spells you can shoot. Life and death fights can easily be influenced by information or the lack thereof.
that goes both ways though, which is why Frieren still puts out enough that she appears as "strong mage" to anyone with detection abilities
go too low and appear as too weak and you invite unnecessary conflict from bullies and opportunistic scavengers.
Its not that easy to supress your mana well. Also, for demons mana amount translates to their status. So hiding their mana isnt an option for them
"I learned this spell from the Grimiore of the great mage Low Tier God."

The kys line and the walk away was SO COLDDDDD
Damn i feel sad for Bambietta, turned to a zombie plaything as a Quincy and now got beheaded as a Demon smh
I only see Anya Forger defeating Nino Nakano 😂😂😂
@@RiverKingOtterdamn 😂
I love the character type that is humble but extremely powerful only using enough of their power that is needed. She's like a secret god, only getting involved when all other methods are exhausted. she lets her party do the work and grow since the need for attention and celebration are beneath her. Can make for a truly menacing character that can shift the story if they ever change their mind. I like that they do show this possibility later on
I have a feeling that this was not frierens full mana capacity. She still believes in deceiving demons and if there happens to be another demon that saw they would know. Pretty sure she held back some for just in case
Yo, I've seen Vegeta and Goku be cold to their enemies. I've seen Sasuke and Itachi be cold af too. Using people as pawns and dealing killing blows at will.
But I think Frieren has secured herself as my favorite number 1 defeat of an enemy. She didn't need to do anything but pretend she was caught. And she didn't even need to kill her enemy herself.
Cold as ice, and bad as all sin. Frieren takes the cake.
1:28 it was at this moment Aura realized that she messed up
"hey Aura, you better take off your scouter, these power readings are unreliable"
bAKa jANaI nO? 🤡
"Aura, Start playing Violin with your sword on your neck. Also, play my theme song." - Frieren
Can't believe Frieren told Aura to play Minecraft and actually being an epic line.
that scene is just *chefs kiss*
Aura:why would you do something so pointless?
Frieren: You're pointless🗣, your life is NOTHING 🗣, you serve 0 purpose 🗣
This scene was fantastic and the perspective of her head flying was amazing
frieren the savage!
ahhh i miss aura, she was the most expresive character in the show, even her eyes cahnged when she knew she was about to die.
Frieren's unsuppressed mana is basically Serei's suppressed mana. As you can see when Fern was watching Serei's mana, you thought it was unsuppressed but its not. Imagine releasing out all of that mana 😅
the one and possible (currently) the only anime that i can stand watching even if it has 100 episodes...if they keep the quality and everything they're doing up until now that is...
こんなにも神作画が多いアニメ始めて見た気がする
one of the most epic scenes in this anime! Frieren mentioned earlier that she is stronger than Aura. But I wasn’t sure if this was the truth.
She would dominate in COD lobbies
"the person standing before you is a mage who's lived over thousands of years"
frieren showed her who's the REAL mommy here.
“You are already dead by your own hand”
I was expecting Aura to play violin on her neck.
Mage who's lived for over a thousand years.
Falls for ever mimic chest in the dungeon.
probably would die any innkeeper demon with the slow power of forcing you to sleep a bit more every day until you never wake up.
Gamer greed is impossible to beat.
Well, you said it. It's been over a thousand years, surely that means the next chest is gonna be the one.
@@megablueflash1816 You're not wrong LOL XD
0:18 SHE SAID IT!!! SHE SAID THE THING!!!1!2!
I LOVE THIS ANIME
Demon should have no emotion but boy you can clearly see aura being afraid
I watched the first few episode of this, and i thought it was going to be a chill fantasy, slice of life-like anime but I was wrong
Ah but you weren't... but you also were!
Aura: That's not my boss music...heh!
I love this scene and how demons are portrayed in this anime. During the entire fight, Aura acts like she's in control. So do the other demons. She believes herself to be strong and unbeatable. Yet the second she realizes that Frieren is way stronger than her and that she's about to die, she cries like a child, tries to ignore the reality of her situation, begs for her life... The Joker said that in their last moments, people show you who they really are. And this couldn't be truer here. Aura is a cowardly weakling masquerading as strong. Same goes for that other demon who tried to decapitate Frieren. He acted all smug, yet the second he realized he was about to die, his first reflex was to beg. I find it fascinating how an entire specie that worships power is so pitifully weak at its core and doesn't seem to understand that real strength comes from your willpower, not from how hard you can hit.
i think it fits perfectly, they are oportunistic individualistic predators that have no other value than themselves - of course they will be smug bullies that turn to begging for theyr life the moment they realize they are going to die.
they have no concept of honor, dignity or compassion only selfish needs and urges they cant control because they never had any reason to learn how to ...
my personal theory is that elves are the third evolution of monster->demon->elf line because they also lack several fundamental "human" characteristics that are necessary for any species to last and are very close in characteristics to demons except having that extra layer of basic empathy and drive for other endeavors than just animalistic urge to feed and dominate others.
that wasnt a fight that was a one sided slaughter
A perfekt one sided slaughter.
Ban Frieren account, she's clearly smurfing.
This anime is so good. They don’t even do this in one episode. They lead up to this with the two episodes and even then, she gives Aura so many off ramps to repent/try for redemption, and Aura’s ego can’t fathom what’s happening.
Always good to tell the defeated opponent to kts 👌
Imo this is the most badass single moment in anime
this scene was something else.
it still gives me chills
I spend most of my free time watching anime and i’m glad they made this Gem. Most fantasy anime are kinda meh but this one is a masterpiece
THIS WAS SO COOL, I CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS MOMENT
Aura will say NYA for the rest of her life
When you realize that your friend was actually holding back and letting you win all along.
Aura's mistake was using this item without knowing how old Frieren was as an elf. She used this against people so often that she became careless to think about it. She should have noticed that something was wrong if her opponent wasn't afraid to use the object.
She did think something was wrong. Which is why she looked so carefully at Frieren's mana. But she saw no signs of supression. Its like losing to a game mechanic that you didnt even know existed
@@alex2005zlike dead angling in dark souls
@@alex2005z Yup, it's like sizing up someone's HP bar as 100 or whatever and not understanding that the 'k' at the end means something.
She is my GODDESS ❤️💞
Low tier frieren dealing with summer ant
最後まで演出も声も神ってるんだよなぁ
I like the imagery there at the end. Where Freiren’s hair is normally draped over her front, when she reveals the true extent of her mana her hair becomes draped down her back. A nice little detail.
A cold, unflinching power flex....I loved it!~
The funny part is that she is just cold toward a demon, for everyone else, she is just an elf granma
Frieren is OP, now i like her even More ❤
I like that the only true emotion demons show to Frieren is fear
...did she just leave those extremely dangerous scales there?
the scales arent dangerous. the spell aureole is. the scales aint do shit
You mean extremely arbitrary and hard to manage scales. First you need to know the activation spell for this item. Second you need to have more mana than your target. Third most likely it was picked up by Graf Granat when he was cleaning up the area
It's dangerous only because of the user. If just about anyone uses it, the chances of having the user being controlled is extremely high.
That being said, frieren probably took it during the clean up.
Actually it doesn't matter. Looking at the scene, after the command to go kill herself: the scales broke.
Dangerous to who? A 500 year old master war mage just attacked her with those scales and failed so miserably in the attempt that she killed herself.
a wonderful "get shit on" moment for the ages
Frieren: "I've been suppressing my mana for most of my life."
Aura: "Are you stupid? Why would you do something so pointless?"
Frieren: "You're right, it's stupid"
Conversations between a newbie and a smurf

I was hoping to see a cat fight, but damn this is so much better!
Ill always love that kill from Aura's PoV
old player vs mid player be like :
nice! >:3
Badass as always frieren ❤
Geez, Aura, it was just a trick. Nothing to lose your head over.
This was epic
