IT'S FRIEREN FRIDAY
>>285496935An ubel-free season is a superior season. Thanks Madhouse.
What causes people to defend the demons? Is this just american thing?
>>285496935When will /a/ stop pretending they hate this show? Everyone here watches each new episode on release.
Countdown until the episode, bros??
>>285496966this but the opposite
>>285496970An elf tells you to lay the demons.
>>285496966It's Bocchi the Rock without Kita.
>>285497319>it's literally the who without literally whook lil bro
>>285496970The meme answer is that those people have been fed a steady diet of, on the one hand, burgerland cynicism masquerading as entertainment in its vilification of Christianity (Church bad! Priests bad! Religion is retarded! etc.). At some point it evolved from harmless fedora-tipping and making fun of crazy bible thumpers to nihilistic imaginings of anachronistic theocracies and entrenched oppression with zero upsides for society, and by extension the dispensation of the classic "good vs evil" dichotomy. And on the other hand, they became too used to consuming bucketloads of the supernatural romcom/isekai equivalent, that demons are just misunderstood goofy bros actually and angels and churches are the real evil bitches. What started as a subversion of the classic dichotomy became the oversaturated rule. Which is why it is simply unfathomable for these people to accept the premise that in THIS story there are objectively evil beings that cannot be reconciled with and need to be purged. The manga/anime has repeatedly hit them over the head with examples of why demons are not like the misunderstood goofy bros from other anime but the cognitive dissonance is too much to the point where they start ranting about fascism or whatever the fuck.The non-meme answer is those people lack media literacy.
>>285497586>haha... so you could do anything you wanted to us, starkkun... anything...
>>285497586Why do people meme that Fern is fat when she's just wearing frumpy clothes and is unlikely to be chubby? They're walking at least a dozen miles every day with meager provisions and most of the calories probably go to her tits anyway
>>285497127Reddit is a better choice if you need a hugbox for this show
This episode will probably be great Keiichiro Saito (S1 + Bocchi director) was in charge of animating the puppet show and Kouki Fujimoto (Fern and Stark vs Lugner and Linie director) is doing the demon sword lady fight
Fish lvl?
Been reading through some of the previous threadsOne anon was upset that the antimagic crystals dont come up again apparently in the manga (yet) and called it bad writing for being an "unfired chekov's gun"Baka the gun fired in the same episodeThe payoff of finding that crystal above ground was them falling into the crytal cave and having to rely on stark for that time, which caused frieren to reminisce about her party and caused fern to grow deeper in love with him. You even got the payoff for the crystal glowing as frieren used it as a flashbang to blind the dragon so they could get away. But that episode was badly written according to that anon.These are the people you share a board with btw. Mouthbreathers.
>>285498108Why is Stark fine with Fern headpatting him here but when she asks to do it again later he freaks out?
>>285497966Ithe puppet show is going to be absolute kinoCredits>Puppet Show Part: SB/UD/KA: Keiichirou Saitou>Stage Illustration: Asuka Satou+ 5 Puppetry Assistants from Puppet Theatre PUK
>>285498172He was dazed and confused from having his soul forcibly ejected from his body by fern's sheer mass crushing him
So how certain is Golden Land going to be a movie or several movies? Are we nigh certain they wanted a lighter workload for S2 so it is only 10 episodes or it's a bait and switch? Doesn't explain the authors going on indefinite hiatus unless it is what I think it is.
>>285498275Golden Land is S3 and Goddess monument is a movie
>>285498275I think it's just a rumor. Apparently if they adapted it as they have been adapting the rest of the story so far it would take like 6-7h of time or something like that, but the time between that and the previous season is not long enough to fill out two cours. What makes the most sense is them doing s2 as a 1 cour, then doing s3 as a two cour with the entire arc covered properly. A movie could be very successful, but movies are generally 1.5-2h, so even with that they might not have time even if they did 2 movies. I'm an animeonly btw, so I'm just talking out of my ass repeating what I've heard other anons say
>>285498275It's a 10 episode season because it's popular and they want to milk it for all they can
>>285498336It's a 10 episode season because it would make no sense to end the season in the middle of an arc.
>>285498356The option was 1 cour or 2 cour, so they went with one cour.Adapting to the end of Golden Lands would have been a 20 episode season. There was no option for finishing in the middle of an arc
Quick reminder that the demon king was defeated all because this absolute cutie loved flowers so much it was unreal
>>285498587The demon king was just allergic to flowers.
>>285496935>SNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFF
>>285498587Based FlammeShame she raised a whore though
>>285496970>Is this just american thing?Yes, just like BLM.
Sorry bros but I just have to, where can we watch the raws?
Choose.
>>285498587No, the Demon King was defeated because a pervy kid saw erotic elf legs and couldn't think of anything else.
>>285498805Yes please.

I have done my learnings. Do not trust antidemonic elf propaganda.
I love Karen
When is the episode out?
>>285496970>>285497468>>285498764man I can't wait until this series inevitably reveals or more explicitly states that the demons aren't inherently evil, they're just a race of D&D monsters and this whole retarded discussion dies and all the /pol/fags fuck off foreverThe demons aren't even the main focus of the story or really that important but it's all anybody ever fucking talks about
>>285500270It airs in 1h. Should be up on nyaa sometime after that, so in 2h or so
>>285498728you are now aware that Frieren practiced throwing kisses since 1000 years ago.>>285500063El hermano del Sur."My name is Inigo Montoya.I killed your army.Prepare to die."

This ojisan is 30 years old.
I watched like 3 episodes of this anime and it was BOOORING as FUCK. What gives..? does it get good several episodes later or 10 eps later or something? why is this mega popular?just seems like some boring ass isekai slop with a boring character and lame ass story about magic scroll shit. (oh and a ridiculous amount of chromatic aberration for why the fck not).Sell this Frieren stuff to mee
S3 will be a puppet show like Thunderbolt Fantasy.

>>285501498it's Friday
>>285496970>>285497468No, actually. You retards are overcomplicating a very simple criticism of an equally simple and stupid work. Pretty much because the text and the subtext are totally at odds because the author came across an ethical topic that is actually fairly complex and subject to debate, but he didn't do it justice because he obviously didn't understand what he was doing. So, a bunch of characters made a bunch of verifiably false proclamations of fact about the topic despite proving themselves wrong in-universe. Also, the writing is just bad. The worldbuilding blows, character personalities are all some variation of flat & autistic.All this + stupid people are annoying and make any of these conversations 1000% more annoying and retarded than they need to be, because there's lots of smoothbrains that want to weigh in on the nature of consciousness despite being barely conscious themselves.Anyway, we've been all over this.>TLDRBad writing on a philosophical concept. Plus a sycophantic, retarded fanbase that won't accept that the writing failed in that aspect because the author was ignorant. Also, despite their ignorance and being provably wrong with evidence from the series, we keep having these stupid threads because, ironically, stupid people are immune to all arguments; they can't understand what you're saying, so you can never prove them wrong.I remember similar threads about Psycho Pass.

>>285502344Nice>>285502119Why are you still here, retard? If you didn’t like the first three episodes you are never going to like the series. So fuck off
>>285501444If you thought the first three episodes were boring this anime is not for youDon't bother
>>285501526>provably wrong with evidence from the seriesDo me a favor and post this proof. Because the idea that demons lack the capacity to coexist with humans long term seems plenty reasonable based on what we've been told and shown (and no, Macht managing it for 50 years does not count as long term as he only lasted that long because he planned to kill/turn to gold everyone all along).
>>285502406>"Demons only communicate to deceive.">Seconds later, shows demons communicating with each other, to share information, with no humans in earshot.Then this shit happens right before your eyes, you're too retarded to grasp the implications, and then you're back at it again next thread.Look, I'm going to be real with you; I think you're a fucking idiot, and I think talking to you is a waste of my time. We've probably already had this exact conversation twice already, and you just can't understand it.Sorry. You're a retard.

what would you do for a reward as amazing as this?
>>285502436Himmel but danddy
>>285502014Who should voice her?
>>285502323slayer???!?!
>so called strongest hero>couldn't kill the demon lord doesn't really seem like a fitting title honestly
>>285502424>"Demons only communicate to deceive."You're both taking that too literally, and misrepresenting what was said. Frieren was stating they talk to humans in order to deceive them, that this is why they speak the same language. Obviously demons communicate with each other for all sorts of reasons, and not every single word they use on humans will be a lie, but it will serve to ultimately manipulate or deceive them in some way (even Macht was guilty of this, as he planned to betray his friend all along).
>7 sages of destructionfrieren literally told one of them to kill herself and it worked, why couldn't she pull the same stunt on the others
>>285502520Retard. They were not talking about the reason why they gained the ability to speak. They were talking about how they use speech. They specifically say that there is "Only one reason why man eating predators would speak the human language." "For them it is not a language to communicate but to deceive." One reason doesn't mean multiple reasons nor does it mean using speech outside said reason.She was wrong and contradicted, and as such it puts everything that the characters say into question. Mostly because the author doesn't know what they're doing and is clearly just making things up as they go along.
i think i downloaded the wrong copy of thunderbolt fantasy
>>285502543Because Aura was the one with the scales dumbass
>>285502582>get aura first>grab her scales>sudoku all the others
>>285498108Too many words just to say that you're a retard.

>>285502436I had completely forgotten about this guy.
>>285502035>>285502231I'm pretty sure there have been scenes of her looking upwards before that started. I mean the geezer had to get the idea for the drawing in the first place, you know?

>>285502450The ribbon of 120cm Fern is top cute.
>>285502475Just occurred to me that she's been collecting all these folk spells for a very long time now, besides learning the standard ones from her time and refining spells being developed in the current day and age. How is she keeping track of them all? People offer her new ones and we don't see her looking up an index, or catalogue of variations, to see if she already has it. If her memory is eidetic enough to instantly recall even just the spell names why can't she remember people's faces from a few centuries ago as well?
>>285502576>Frieren but puppetkino
Linie was very cute. Then she died. The End.
>>285502691>If her memory is eidetic enough to instantly recall even just the spell names why can't she remember people's faces from a few centuries ago as well?well she actually cares very deeply about magic so i assume she does have a easier time remembering spells than people
all he had to do to convince was tell her that there was probably a shitload of unknown spells in the demon kings library or something
>>285502501Hocchan.
god I hate the OP
Macht
>>285502566>They specifically say that there is "Only one reason why man eating predators would speak the human language." "For them it is not a language to communicate but to deceive."Exactly, they are talking about why they speak the same language as humans. Maybe it's a translation issue, as I recall it being much clearer they were talking about why they communicate with humans, not about how they communicate with each other.

>>285502750SSSSSSNEK
>>285502750what the FUCK
What killed the hype?
>i'm the strongest because i can see the future>dies anywaydoesn't really add up
>She sees your ____
>>285502599When would she have been able to do that? Aura escaped in her first encounter with the heroes, and most of the sages are already dead by the time Frieren met her again.Even then, humans (including elves) cannot use the magic of the sages. Frieren took control of Aura because Aura used the scales and its rules allowed the one with less mana to control the other. That doesn't mean Frieren could then used the scales herself.
>>285502753>Exactly, they are talking about why they speak the same language as humans.And they say "Only one reason we speak like humans" and are then shown using language outside of said reason. It's not taking it too literally when the show establishes the parameters for where and how they use speech and then immediately breaks it. For some idiotic, retarded reason, the demons don't even have their own language and just use human speech to talk to each other, even when humans aren't around, which again, directly contradicts why they say they speak like humans. Stop trying to pull a 'gotcha' like some retarded autist. This is completely retarded writing, and you're an even bigger retard for trying to defend it.

>>285502691>why can't she remember people's faces from a few centuries ago as well?When has it been said she forgets faces? Frieren (and elves in general) seem to have very good memories. Even her seemingly forgetting her meeting Himmel as a kid was remembered shortly after (in an extra scene from the manga where she goes "oh, you were the kid from that time").
I love Frieren, and I wish every Frieren hater 2AM diarrhea
To be fair, those couatl-sneks have superpoison strong enough to kill a man like Stark within an hour or so.
>>285502742Me too, I can't believe the terminal shit taste of the guys that ranked it above the second OP.

>>285502876"please Anon, keep telling me about the first years of the Roman Republic"

>>285502055Frieren is so much better than fmab and s;g it's insane. Old good new bad fags get btfo once again.
>>285502923if you were strong enough you would be able to overcome fate too
>>285500382>>285501526This is why I think that where the story is going eventually, with its repeated explorations of demons trying and failing to understand humans and the doomed nature of demon/human coexistence, is that by the end of the story where will be at least one young demon that CAN understand humanity and potentially co-exist with them. And the debate will become about whether this is genuine or another demon trick, and if it appears to be genuine whether or not Frieren herself is capable of *accepting* that the enemy that she has personally hated for over a thousand years has changed or if she will advocate for its extermination anyway.Frieren admits and accepts that demons have evolved since their origins, going from simply mimickry monsters to dangerous and intelligent beings. If they evolve into something that are effectively just people, no longer being universally JUST predators to be exterminated, that presents a personal conflict for Frieren herself because while she was 100% right about how to treat demons in the past, time has once again changed something that she took for granted when she was not looking.
>>285502750dun dun dundundun DUN DUN DUN
See they made the fatal mistake of making the villainess too attractive, while also not showing her being particularly evil. All she does is stand around with a smug grin, in possession of an army of anonymous zombies we don't really care about. She gets talked up but you don't actually see anything like an extended scene of her torturing a main character you care about.
>do me a favor and tell himmel i'll make his job easier for him bro...
>>285502818Flamme noted demons form the barest connections with each other only for the sake of combating humanity. Basically they were solitary, practically asocial. So they developed human language as monsters that mimicked human speech to lure them, then as their intelligence increased they also used that language to communicate with each other. Talking to each other thus was not the reason they developed language, it was simply a extra benefit.
>>285502750Jashin-chan did nothing wrong!
hmm
>>285502950>by the end of the story where will be at least one young demon that CAN understand humanity and potentially co-exist with them...who becomes demon king, then gets defeated, escapes, and ends up on Earth, working in a McRonalds?
The daimaou will be reborn, for that is the trope of nip fiction. But when the great demon king returns, so too shall a new hero rise to fight him.
Damn, why can't magic be real IRL? Do we need different physics or some shit? Or is the next best thing to create a technology so extremely advanced and sophisticated that it simulates real-life physics and phenomena, but acts as "magic", which can be manipulated by magic capable people or individuals with clearance or access to the system? Because I can't think of any other way of making magic real.

>>285502818>For some idiotic, retarded reason, the demons don't even have their own language and just use human speech to talk to each other, even when humans aren't around, which again, directly contradicts why they say they speak like humans.Translation convention? So they don't have to invent a language (like having the voice actors say lines in English and reversing the audio, or some shit) and then have to subtitle it? it's easier just to have them speaking Japanese to each other for the viewer's convenience.

Did not like the second part of this episode. That was the most obvious demon ever. It just made Frieren and the gang look stupid and out of character.
> how can I insert and wank Himmel in a story that happened before he was born?> give bs future sight powers to a fucking human character who isnt even a mage!Hackery has no bound it seems
side quest straight out of a JRPG
>>285503047Answer me this: what is magic? Define the premise of magic beyond what you would use it to be able to do?Magic as it exists in fantasy is just free energy that for some reason you can make do shit just by thinking about it. Very few fantasy settings bother to elaborate on how it actually works or where it comes from, at best (like Frieren) only really mentioning how people use it. The existence of magic is taken as a presumption not to be challenged, and then the story decides what magic can and cannot do to suit its needs. But that doesn't say what magic IS anymore than if I asked you "what is electricity?" and you answered "a lightbulb".
What a good episode brosStark saving his Wife from getting stabbed by that whore demon was my favorite partHer pussy was a river after that fight

>>285503099No. That's about Solitar. She and Frieren have same amount of mana, not Macht
>>285496970Too many people watched Starship Troopers.

>>285496970they're genuinely retarded and INCAPABLE of comprehending the concept of pure ontological evil
>>285503188Yeah you'll meet him soon enough.
uma da
>>285502874That kid was just decades ago. She made an offhand remark in one chapter about struggling to remember faces after a few centuries. We saw Himmel react to that comment in the background and it was only after that he developed his mania for statues. This is manga only I think, we didn't see it in the anime.
comfy
>>285503135>how can I insert and wank Himmel in a story that happened before he was born?The Hero of the South met Frieren long after Himmel was born. I got the impression it was only a few years before Himmel came to recruit her (in another flashback Eisen speaks of the Hero of the South's death as a recent event).
>>285503101nvm

>>285497830Reddit hates this show, they literally empathize with the demons
frieren told himmel no ur not getting a footjob truly a tragic hero
>>285501618She actually showed a surprising amount of restraint this episode. As much of a piggu (Japanese for pig) as she is, her worry about frieren acting strange overpowers her need to gourge herself
2/10
>>285503246Specifically, Frieren mentions how she got bested a few times by other beings that had less mana than her in an answer to Fern's question if anybody could even defeat Frieren, and one among those people who defeated Frieren was Macht.
Lovely episode (especially the South hero part).That said, the explosions during the fight though looked like a crappy filter effect. Time issues?
>>285501457>>285502576THE LAND IS CLOAKED IN DEEPEST BLUE
>>285503235Yeah, why don't they just destroy the sword? I don't think the directing was good for that fight either

>>285502873Noone can escape her leg lock.
>tfw fern will never look at you like THIS
>>285503182Frieren stated Macht was on the same level as Solitar (chapter 98), so mana amount should be similar.
this shot reminded me of pre 00s fantasy

if humans are allowed to kill animals to eat them and survive, what's so bad about demons killing humans to eat them and survive?
>>285503246Any proves or scans? IIRC, first time vs Macht, Frieren was defeated very easily. She's too weak for him to remember her lol
>>285503128>>285503309Agree. This might be my least favorite episode in all of Frieren. But I did like the first half.
>>285502691>for a very long time nowNot that long. Remember is it was Himmel's, Heiter's and Eisen's reactions to her goofy spells that inspired her to start collecting them. So she's been collecting for less than a century.
So... ehm the future is inevitable or Hero of the South just choose the best outcome?
> Hero of the South doesnt introduce himself using his real nameHow fucking lazy this author that cant even name the other hero character
>you shouldn't eat people because you can eat other things>ok and?she has a point here as wellhumans are capable of living vegan lifestyles and abstaining from meat...but why should they? meat tastes good
>>285503188Most demons in the wild only kill humans to eat or defend themselves. That's why the demon king was such an issue, he organized demons to the extent that they coordinated as a whole to fight humans for reasons other than eating or territory.
>>285502691She hasn't been going around collecting spells her whole life. She only really started after the original adventure because her party loved her silly spells. She didn't realize that what they really loved was spending time with her, so she went off on her own because in her mind more spells = my friends will be happy when I show them neat tricksBut presumably, once you know the magic from a tome or scroll, you dont need the paper anymore, so she probably just offloads or trades them at the next magic tome store in the next town
>>285502797The guy he was up against could see the future even harder and brought along an overpowered posse as back up.
>>285503372Because humans are top of the food chain - we are not allowing lions and bears to hunt on us and demons are just cunning animals.
>>285503146>what is magic?The manipulation and application of a certain energy source through certain means, like rituals, incantations, gestures, words, sentences, or even thought and some manner of physical movement or even technological manipulation of the said energy source. This is why I theorized that it's possible to probably make some manner of "artificial magic" through extremely advanced technology, but this would mean we have access to the energy of our sun and planet directly, and not using fossil fuels or organic matter as a way to generate power, or electricity by heating water using, or use molten salt or lithium-ion batteries.So we're still not there yet, probably not for a million years, IF humans even exist in the next thousand years that is.
>>285502750Shouldʼve been me.
>>285503411humans also bitch about meat too.drr I don't like pork. or red meat or some other shit. or shell fish. point is, there are alternatives.
Frieren is not afraid of the snek.
>>285503411it's a sin (moral fault) to kill sentient life, so ningens, being prey of demons, are justified in purging any demon that so much as steps into their realms without being invited.

This shot was crucial for the coreography.
>>285503216>She made an offhand remark in one chapter about struggling to remember faces after a few centuries.I think you're misremembering. That is, didn't the statue thing develop because of Frieren remarking on how she may be the only person left to remember Flamme's face? So Himmel started making statues so Frieren wouldn't have to hear people talk about him as if he were a fairy tale.
Who is this demon? When did Frieren meet them? Did this demon kill her village?
>>285502543So the hero's party defeated two, the hero of the south defeated three, and the last two fled. Aura was one, so that means theres one sage still roaming about? Pls don't spoil directly if this is a plot of a future arc, which I assume it is. Just say if it does come up or not yet
>>285503138Think I did that in Elder Scrolls IV or V, or it was a modded in quest or some shit.
>>285503410look at her go!
>>285503372Well, humans have the right to fight back, you know? Or would you just let yourself be killed by a demon? It's either your survival or the survival of the enemy and your survival is always more important.
>>285503451>>285503452kek
>>285503461yes
>>285503451>>285503452tummybrain...
>>285503381She literally states in both S1 and the manga (forget which chapter but right before the exam) that she has lost to 9 people 'with less mana than her'Later in the manga she states these to be Qual and MachtAnyway she didn't lose Macht because she was weak, she just didn't have anything to deal with his curse. Exactly the same situation as with Qual, his Zoltraak was too powerful so they sealed him up until she could come back with better magical tools to defeat him
>>285503459Macht. A long time ago. No.
>it was at this moment, she knew she had fucked up
>>285503411We're the main characters and we're stronger and smarter than the animals so it's ok.Demons are weak and dumb and every fight they've ever won doesn't count so it's evil.
>>285503225From what I can tell, it was maybe a year before. So yeah. The HotS even said it would happen soon.
>>285503372of course we're not allowed to kill animals lol.they're just too insignificant to fight back nowadays.
>>28550323580 years passed between the sword getting stolen. It'll probably be a while before it happens again.
>>285503271
>>285503440>The manipulation and application of a certain energy source through certain means, like rituals, incantations, gestures, words, sentences, or even thought and some manner of physical movement or even technological manipulation of the said energy source.Tell me why the startup process for a nuclear reactor is not a magic ritual.
>>285502750>fern holding stark's handsCUTE AND CANON COUPLE VERY CUTE
>>285503481For Frieren, that was the most horrifying defeat she ever experienced and forced her to become a hermit who is deadly afraid of fighting the demons, and disappointing Flamme beyond her grave.For Macht, that was a mere random encounter on his way to slaughter a random village and force random survivors to fight each to the death.
>>285503410Cant believe they put me in the showI feel so seenI feel so heckin valid
BY GOD IT'S FRIEREN OUT OF NOWHERE WITH THE ORBITAL LASERSHE DONE GONE TURNED THAT DEMON TO ASH

>>285503235Speedwatcherkun...
>>285503451>>285503452Are you SURE we can't spare just this one demon, Frieren-sama?
>>285503461The HoTS killed 3 currently unnamed ones. Himmel's party killed Bose (as mentioned in season one) and Grausam. They also seriously wounded Aura, driving her into hiding. Macht went awol.
>>285503528WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO ACTIF WE WANT TO LIVE IN A DIFFERENT WORLD
Stark sama
Fuck subtlety, gotta explain everything to the modern viewer.
>>285502645>>285502675Based as fuck. Where is this from?
HONESTLY a worthless spellred apples are far superior to green apples
>>285503528What if we sent Frieren to space and have her strike every demon from orbit
>>285503584FAT
>>285503515So why is she still alive?
>>285503434>Because humans are top of the food chain -No, in that world that's definitely demons.>demons are just cunning animals.That's humans too.
>>285502750snekfantachi... not like this...
>>285503528the orbital laser was the worst WMD in generals, using it on mooks is the only good use
>>285503591Aren't green apples just raw ones that haven't turned red yet?
>>285502750nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>285503372>>285503466Basically this. It's not about demons being evil, as Frieren puts it at a later point, it's about humans not being so kind as to let themselves be preyed on if they can help it.
>You are misunderstanding something, Frieren. Total Weebslopper Death has never been off the table.
>>285503372Nothing but humans are the dominant species so humans make the rules
>>285503605Same reason that Aura was still alive after facing Himmel. She ran away.
>Hero of the South is a melee sword user>Demon sages are magic users who can fly and use magic and shitWhy not just fly and nuke him from the air?

Thought Fern was looking at the demon like it was telling the most obvious lie.Was she really going to fall for its ruse?
>>285503605To Macht, Frieren was just one of countless people who had tried to slay him. He didn't always bother to kill them or use his curse, the latter because he found it to be boring. In Frieren's case he turned one of her arms to gold, and its unclear if he intended to only turn her arm to gold, or if she somehow was able to stop herself form turning fully to gold. Regardless, he didn't care to confirm what happened to her (and/or she was able to hide form him), and centuries later he doesn't even remember the encounter (which is to Frieren's benefit as it means he doesn't realize the implications behind the fact her arm is no longer gold). [/spoiler
>>285496935QUALITY
>>285503587My exact thoughts also. Also how the demon just had to say she ate them even though it was obvious. Baking that into a lesson about "well they eat humans even though they don't need" did not save it, it's just repetition of what we know already and there was more of that later in the episode too. I loved season one, unfortunately this season's two episodes are quite bad so far.
>>285502805Snake! When she see my snake. And then step on it.
>>285502750>Frieren will never step on my snakeWhy even live?
>>285503751>18TB of animeBloated episode size and shit taste.
>>285503606>No, in that world that's definitely demons.That was true for a long time, but no longer as they are now the hunted as often as the hunter. Demons have been very slow to understand that though.
The smaller adventure episodes are the peak of the show
>>285503264That's a parrot, you turkey.
>>285503400He doesn't introduce himself to the audience because that's a deliberate choiceHe told frieren his name but the scene begins after she already rejected joining himYou meed to seriously do something else if this is the kind of thing that upsets youImagine hatewatching frieren, of all things
>>285496935Cute couple
>>285503785i've watched a lot
>>285503705Almost everyone went extinct. The entire reason humans are doing better 100 years later than dwarves, demons, and elves is because of their fecundity, hilariously enough.In reality humans aren't known for fast breeding, but among these races in Frieren's world, that's exactly what they're good at, comparatively. Humans are like rabbits compared to the others.
What the hell were the sounds in this scene? It sounds like cookie clicker thing.
If this demon could see a thousand years into the future, why couldn't he prevent his own death?
>>285503682>anyone thinking otherwise is an imbecile... anything thinking otherwise eats pears.
>>285503814HOTS was just that strong
>>285503035Gorgeous. I love this shot
>>285503002Exposed Frieren legs, yummy
>>285503451>>285503452>the tummy>the belly button>the hips>the pussy>the deep V cum guttersIs this the most outwardly erotic design in the show? It's only there for two seconds, but it really feels like they animated with their cocks on this one
>>285503635Pretty sure a superhuman like him can leap high enough to attack a demon in the air, or swing his sword in a way to make a projectile wave of cutting air (Himmel is seen to do this later in the manga).
I can't watch the episode until my sister is here, I promised her we would watch it together
>>285503088Stark is so cool. Fern's face after was great too
>>285503047there is internal magic that's 'real' in your head.for magic to do things for you, basically go and invent enough tech.
>>285502511What about pic related don't you understand?Frieren may have killed more demons, but she had 1000+ years and then 10 with the hero's party to do it. He smashed them in one year and opened a path for her party.
>>285503635>can flynot yet, in 50 years, maybe
>>285503491>of course we're not allowed to kill animals lol.According to who? To you? I'll kill and eat my bunnies as soon as they get fat enough and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
>>285502750god I wish that snake was me

>>285503620You're thinking of bellpeppersAll different kinds of apples have different colors ranging from red to pink to greenGenerally green are more on the tart or sour side while red are sweetRed apples clear. Specifically Gala
really so so
>>285503800>i've watched a lot> >20% unwatchedDunno about that.
>>285496935Extremely comfy stuff. Love the side quest episodes.
>>285503213Best shot in the entire series.I KNEEL.
>>285503667
>>285503176Maybe its the animation but it looks like her knees move inward when walk instead of forward, if she was human id imagine she would have serious knee issues when older with this walk posture
>>285503672It's not about power, there are very few beings who can detect Frieren at all when she is trying to hide. But perhaps more importantly, Macht was apathetic enough to not care about chasing down everyone he beat.
>>285503810And? How does this refute my point - A set of characteristics that allows one race to eliminate an entire species at will and dominate the world is what it means to be at the top of the food chain.
>>285503814This was important enough for his plan for him to die doing it. Everything Schlact has done is to guide the world to the future he desires in a thousand years. Keep that in mind when you remember that he was the Demon King's right hand man and obviously knew that Himmel would kill the DK.
>>285503901>>285503450, animals have every right to kill you back but they're too weak
>>285501911Should have kept in the raw footage.
>>285503814He couldn't see beyond that point, and hadn't been able to for 999 years.
>>285503242>>285502804OHHHHHHHHHH OHHHHH TUMMY OHHHHHHHHH
>>285503926i've watched a lot and i've got a lot to watch
>>285503814One of the future seers was content with their death, and fought without worries. The other, though knowing that he could alter his own future, miscalculated the Southern Hero's prowess in battle. So one was ready to die, the other was not, and died for underestimating his opponent.
>>285496970Nobody really defends the demons. People just assume other peoples’ positions and argue with that. I’ve yet to see a single person argue the demons aren’t evil. They aren’t even the main focus of Frieren or the main focus of the fans.
>>285503900Demons have flown for thousands of years. Humans just stumbled onto their knock off spell that they don't understand within the last 50.
>>285503294Good im glad they hate it with their site tier world view
>>285503731>attack it oftenAnd that "often" seems to be every several decades.
>>285503591Not if you drizzle them with honey or use them to cook something tasty.
Hot springs? Possibly a date? Next episode sounds good at least. I am excited!
>>285503452based horny directorimagine what he coulda done to bocchi if it wasnt for that damn feminist
>>285502750JUMMY
is this Asperger elf trying to unlock a special achievement with her foolish spells?
>>285503015They say>Only one reason we speak like humansAnd are then shown using it outside of said reason. >Flamme noted demons form the barest connections with each other only for the sake of combating humanity. Basically they were solitary, practically asocial.This is untrue with what we've seen on screen. Demons flat out think that other demons dying is morally wrong. If not shown through Lugner and his reaction to Linie dying in front of him, then certainly with Soltair saying that she hates the demon king's war because it killed her friends. There's clearly some value to a relationship to them beyond just teaming up to combat humanity.
Aletta?
>>285503773season 1 was the same
>>285503971Schlacht was ready to die. Not sure why you forgot his conversation with Macht since it specifically involved this.
>>285503657God, I love puppets.
>>285503856Abe-sama's spirit is strong in this one.
>>285503951now the sword thingy after makes sense
>>285504009
>>285503635didn't they say last episode, or last thread, that warriors are also mana users but use it internally (MT touki, DBZ ki).they're damn dangerous. it's very poorly explained in the show.
>>285504013it'll come in useful when they have to fight demon lord red apple, trust the plan
>>285496970its either equalizing demons to animals or this>>285503202Hopefully the manga doesnt backtrack on their evil nature (still didnt) and end up the same as other shows
nyo...not like this...
>>285503989No, speedwatcherkun, they said it's been stolen twice in a hundred years, but that there have been many attempts at stealing it between those two times. They also deliberately show shots of merchants selling weapons and kids looking up to soldiers saying they want to grow up strong. This is absent in other villages they visit because those obviously dont specialize in demon killingIt doesnt take a very smart man to put two and two together here
>>285503889>He smashed them in one year and opened a path for her party.
I want to tongue Fern's asshole.
>>285504009>>285502750
>>285504067red apples are cool, I only wish they were as sour as their green siblings
>>285503452Does anyone have the manga panel for this?
Is the sword cursed or something? Or does it just look cool and demons just want it as bling?
I miss Ubel
>>285504108SHE STEPPED! ON SNEK!!!
>>285503620Green ones which are the best one are called granny smith apples
>>285503411>You shouldn't fuck demons, they're evil murderers, you can fuck other thingsWhy is that a reason not to fuck demons?
>>285502475
The Hero of the South is one of my favorite depictions of "the strongest" since he didn’t sit on his ass doing nothing and actually tried to beat the big bad guy. He's a perfect depiction of "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in"
>>285503015>Flamme noted demons form the barest connections with each other only for the sake of combating humanity.Then can you explain this????
I can't fix the demons, but I can fuck the female ones.
>>285504108>autistic women and snakeswhat does it mean
>>285504017Season 1 introduced a lot of the elements so it had a had to have some explaining, but not repetition like season 2 has. Also, season 1 had lots to say through reading between the lines and not stating the most obvious things.
>>285502750>>285504108What do snakes taste like? Fish? Chicken?
>>285504159It is hinted at least some Demons could be even more powerful wielding the sword, so I guess there's something like a curse in it.
>>285503128The source material just wasn't very good for this part of the manga
>>285496970I don't see as much demon defense as I see people seethe that the story isn't le gray and the demons are objectively evil
>>285503933Nah 2ds are better
>>285504211Fishy chicken
>>285496970They are hot.
>>285504147>>285504067The song is bad apple not red applesilly elf
>>285504194sign me the fuck up for your sidequest jii-san, i NEED that
>>285504159Weapons seem to have some level of power, when considering people thought the Hero would be the one to use that sword from that cave to defeat the demon king. But it's all probably about prestige and a placebo type thing idk
>>285504211...snake
>>2855042352Ds are ALWAYS better
>>285503933>>285504235They're both boys
>>285504211Probably like snakes desu
>>285504265So demons
>>285504024The sword plot twist later and this schlacht thing makes me think there will be a new DK and a new hero in the future and thats why they want the sword. The manga didnt reveal anything yet anyway
>>285504159There's demon opium in the hilt

>>285504360You're just not demonic enough.
>>285504314Every female in the show is a 10But demon females specifically use their sexy bodies to entice and destroy human menYou are literally falling for it
>>285504381There is no proof whatsoever that demons even eat humans. We have not seen it happen ever, not even once.
>You gave me Holy BraveWhat does that mean?
>>285504384Anon, that's a kick...
Serie!
>>285504374I hate this so fucking much
>>285502511I'll be honest, we don't even know what 3 of the sages can do and have very limited information on one other, and I can still argue with confidence that if Himmel's party had faced off against Schlacht + the seven sages all at once, they'd party wipe hard. They wouldn't manage to kill half of them before dying, unlike the HotS. And Himmel's party was strong as fuck. But we know Bose can seal Himmel away until his body gives out. We know Grausam can one shot Frieren. Poor Eisen has no defense against Auserlese and becoming a corpse soldier. And I doubt Heiter's super resistance can stop Di Agolze. And they don't have future sight to guide while Schlacht will know their every move ahead of time.The HotS's last stand is honestly the most absurd feat in the entire manga so far, and it just gets more absurd the more you learn about how broken the demons are.
>>285504381She was only following the food chain. Nothing wrong with that.
>>285504314just like real lifesexy ones will ruin your life(i still miss you rebeca)
>>285504386if they are, that's fine, but that anon is specifically pointing out that there was a payoff to them existing within the episode they were introduced. other anons were saying there was no payoff for them being in the story, and thus, was bad writing

>Demon girl didn't kill anyone for years purely because she chose not to>Macht didn't kill anyone for fifty years purely because he chose not to>Frieren flat out tries to talk the demons down, to avoid a fight, despite the characters saying that negotiating with demons is pointless, ???????

>>285504467I believe frieren started traveling with fern at 26 years post. They first met at 21. They started the proper quest to go to auerole at 28 and stark joined them that same year since eisen told them specifically not to go without a warrior to help them. I could be wrong, this is just what I remember
>>285504015>This is untrue with what we've seen on screen. Demons flat out think that other demons dying is morally wrong. If not shown through Lugner and his reaction to Linie dying in front of him, then certainly with Soltair saying that she hates the demon king's war because it killed her friends. There's clearly some value to a relationship to them beyond just teaming up to combat humanity.Demon friendships are relationships of mutual convenience or benefit. They dislike losing friends much the way one dislikes losing a valued possession. It's hard to say their friendships are like those of humans when they cannot feel things like guilt or empathy.

>>285504515it cannot get worse than AoT combluted time bullshit...can't it??
>>285504505>shut up demon>*zoltraak*
What did Frieren say to Himmel here? Will we ever find out?
>demons are inherently evil and cannot be reasoned with>they also steal swords that their idols used without killing anybody in the castle and then camp at the top of a mountain to roleplay>>285504515It's fine, dead men tell no tales.
>>285504527Okay, so then explain this.>>285504200If they can't feel empathy or anything like that, then why is this demon child bursting at the seams with a desire for approval?
How does Frieren manage to be the hottest woman in this entire show?
>>285504569Body of a child, mind of an adult
>>285504559>Himmel, I know for a fact that you will one day be the hero who slays the demon king. Don't ask how.
>>285502732
>>285504559They said it directly in that same scene dummy>I'll clear a path for you, broThe HotS was a gigachad and was basically the vanguard of the party. They may not have defeated the demon king without him going ahead of them to weaken his forces and dab on the demoniggers
>>285504467Frieren met Fern at 20-years after the death of Himmel.They went on the adventure at 26-years after the death of Himmel.Stark joined 28-years after the death of Himmel.
>>285503502>repays the favorTOP CUTE!
>>285504559>I just farted
>>285502475multi-national wars would be fought for such an ability were it real
>>285504603How wet was fern here? She must have been sloshing like a boat that's taking on water
>>285504015No, by and large demons don't give a fuck about other demons dying. Solitar is the weirdest demon in the manga. Weirder than Macht, Schlacht, and the DK, and they're all weird demons too as she herself notes.
>>285504200Yes, weak demons will serve strong ones, and seek to benefit from it. The hope would be this would help them become stronger over time and gain more dignity among demons.
>>285496970erm if there's even one demon out there who has the potential to perpetually deny their instincts and not be a plague upon our species then we have to assume that's the case for all of them and put ourselves at a disadvantage until we can find this demon, stop being a bigot and read some heckin philosophy
>>285504632Being a better henchmen doesn't get you more power in demon society.
>>285502511>1v8'd eight of the strongest demons and took out 4idk I don't think anyone else has matched that feat
>ntr episodelomoa>muh hero of the souther>himmel? cvck!!
the other hero's mustache bothers me
>>285501344
>>285504515
Another great episode. My only complaints are the weird looking explosions and the typical shonen style explanation about the praying thing in the second half, even though anyone paying attention could’ve figured it out. But given the number of retards who didn’t realize the beginning of the first episode was a parallel to the first episode of the first season maybe it’s for the best
>>285504610Nah only gross human females do that.
>>285504559>did you know that despice being 10% of populator, demons care the cause of 60% ~
>>285500382nigga they already explained long before that demons are just monsters that can talk
>>285504645>stop being a bigot
>>285502750look at those cute dorks
Frieren seeing through the demon was a given, but I honestly expected Fern and Stark, or at least one of them to see it coming tooThey should know better by now
>>285504467I believe Fern is legal, if that's what you're asking
>>285504569Because she's easy
>>285504334heh
>>285504564You think that is empathy?
If I was in their party I'd be like "Frieren can you leave her body and head intact?" and she'd give me the most disgusted look conceivable and later that evening she would tell me to leave the party
>>285504711Would Frieren really let you have sex with her for a grimoire?
>>285504715Parental affection is something they're explicitly stated to not have.
>>285504630Specific demons who exhibit errent or abnormal behavior is not indicitive of the species as a whole. The general actions of the species are, and the general actions of demons are that of apex predators that are a huge danger to all mankind. A couple of demons who may be more complicated doesn't mean they all are more complicated and doesn't mean that they still shouldn't, as a whole, be dealt with. It's like taking the small portion of humans who turn out to be serial killers and saying all humans are psychopaths because of them. Animals can exhibit errant behavior that is to their own detriment
>>285504711>>285504722>Frieren-sama, I have a great problem... I'm still a virgin in my thirties
>>285503128>That was the most obvious demon ever.agreed, hood instantly gave it away, I'm surprised fern and stark even went to close their eyes
How nice of human eating demons to never eradicating the castle's bloodline when they took the sword. This story is a joke
>>285504307Didn't you watch the first season?
>>285504211like any meat... mostly chicken very soft
>>285503714ugly bastard
>>285504722Honestly? No, I bet she finds the act repulsive unless she is in elf heat which is stupid rare
>>285504704It's been a while since Stark or Fern were up against a demon.
>>285504756Your esl is showing bro
>>285503459He's El Cómplice's cómplice.
>>285504711Frieren you need to BREED! Elves are literally dying out please just breed
>>285504481>Demon girl didn't kill anyone for years purely because she chose not toWhich one was that? >>Macht didn't kill anyone for fifty years purely because he chose not toAnd because he planned to kill/curse everyone eventually anyway. To demons, not killing humans is more like delaying killing them. And with their different perspective on time, that delay can be quite long and mean little to them.>>Frieren flat out tries to talk the demons down, to avoid a fight, despite the characters saying that negotiating with demons is pointless,That was just banter, she went out knowing what she would most likely have to do. That said, demons will (when they can) avoid a fight they know they'll lose (the whole reason Frieren suppresses her mana is so more demons will be willing to fight her), so in that sense you can potentially threaten them into fleeing.
>>285504779Fern did get a book like that, huh? Obviously not for the intention I said, but it keeps clothes clean
>>285504741There must be a sure fire method to have sex
>>285504467Fern's age is current year after the death of Himmel minus 11. Stark is some numbers of months older than Fern. So right now Fern and Stark are both 18.
>>285502599It's worrying how many people think Aura's scales had anything to do with her magic. The scales were pretty much to her what a staff is to Frieren
>>285504704I'm gonna be completely honest with youShe fooled me, tooI thought that she COULD be the demon and that she was suspicious, but she was cute so I was hoping she wasn't and that she would point them in the right direction for the actual encounter
>>285504813Thats how elves go extinct or due to battle killing them all.
>>285504845Bro... I hope you never get isekai'd
>>285503657damn that's cool
>fish lvl 10Hard to find time to grind out lvls when you're always on the move desu
>>285503345she is poopin ?
>>285504652If you live longer (thanks to associating with stronger demons) and thus become stronger than you would otherwise, then you would indeed rise in the ranks.
>>285503993>or use them to cook something tastySuch as?
>>285504804Eyebrows
Is Aura the only qtie demon who got a name (and doujins)? Any others coming along or just a sausage fest for the named demons from now on?
fuck demons
>>285504845>Fooled by an old hagCome on anon, you’re better than this
>>285504211They taste like older women. Gross.
>>285504727Seeking praise is not equivalent to a parental relationship.
>>285504888She's doing weed.Elf on weed will just sit in a corner of the forest until covered in moss.Sober elf will go on adventure and kill the demon king.Weed is bad, okay? It keeps you from going on an adventure and killing your demon king.
>>285504908Apple pieThe type of apple you use becomes less imporant as the taste will be overwhelmed by sugar and stuff
>>285504756>just wipe out the city full of armed guards brodo not dumb here
>>285504515what's the issue he's literally bardock
>>285504908カレー
>>285504926>>285504871In fairness, I WOULD ask her to remove her hood first to check for horns before closing my eyes. But at that point it would probably be too late for me anyways lol
>>285504727>Parental affectionwhat the fuck are you talking about
>>285504794Heck at this point Fern had only ever met three demons (and Stark only two), none of which were trying to hide what they were.
>>285504704fern probably should've known, I can understand stark being a little more naive
>>285504926>thousands dicks stare
>>285504888Only stinky human females do that
>>285504983If it's natural for a parent to not have affection for its child then it's also natural for a child to not desire affection from the parent
>>285502424This thread filled with imbeciles who are not replying to the most important part of your post, the fucking pic. It implies they have no concept of a "Father", which is baffling considering this same demon just used both "Father" and another concept, that of a "Son"(this is even worse, as it displays Relational understanding of human constructs, basically it's capable of understanding our culture fully) in a way that's not possible for someone who just knows the words or whatever. But yes, one-eyed author leading blind retards around, what' new
>>285504515Just because he can see the future it doesn't mean he's smart.
I really like the OST in this scene.
>>285504883>emasculated yet againstarkbros...
>>285505014it's not looking for affection, it's looking for validation, it said "praise me" not "love me"
if i was in the world of frieren i would have a cool katana and be fast as fuck
>>285504926She looks like the priest from the wizard promotion tournament.
>>285503088ABORTION KICK
>>285504540> He doesn’t know
>>285505021I always thought that could have been worded better (heck, maybe it is in Japanese), but I took the scene to mean that Lugner could tell the terms had to do with important relationships and winged it from there (hence him looking about the room before he spoke, he was thinking about what he could say), with the resulting plausible-sounding lie being meant to show how skilled a liar he is, that he could come up with a lie about something he had no real understanding of.
>>285503180Himmel was doing main and side quests, South Hero went straight to the boss rush mode.
>>285505021Man you're fucking dumb
>>285505081NOT AGAIN
>>285504308>replying to himself Embarrassing.
>>285504515If he already knew Frieren would join a different hero, why did he ask her to join him?
Is there really no better way to draw faces from a distance?
>>285505052Dont worry, this is all building up to a scene at the end of thr season where he catches a huge fucking fish and fern is happy and eats it whole
>Choices don't matter, the future is already decided
>>285505151Lmao
>>285504515yup. it's cute how some anons seriously discuss this as if it can make sense.
Frieren really went "cool story bro"
>>285505152Because he knew he would ask her to join him.
>>285505152he saw frieren saying no, if he didnt ask, the future would not happencongrats to your first shitty writed time paradox
>>285505067But making elves trip over small rocks is bad you know.
>>285503372Are the DSL necessary to fool humans?
>>285505021It's rhetorical you absolute fucking retard. This is called waxing poetic, and he does the same thing again in the next episode. Do you think that this demon also has no concept of what "words" are? This desperate desire of you midwits to attack the popular thing is melting your brains.
wherea are the stiches????????? STITCHES ANONS??????
>>285503515For Macht, was Tuesday.
>>285505238Yes
>>285505266I don't think there were that many paning shots this episode desu, but perhaps the usual stitchers are just late to the ep. Check out the future threads over the rest of the weekend you'll probably find them alongside whatever webms end up being made
>>285503372Did you skip season 1? Demons don't need to eat humans to survive.
>>285505216reply
>>285504790But a grimoire is a grimoire
>>285505152>say i can see the future>start going full shizo actions>why you did it anon>because i saw myself doing it
>>285503088So glad we're getting Stark being essential to the party this season. Especially after the last arc last season. I want him to be cool and for the others to remember why they brought him along.
>>285503751Can you post a pic of inside your case and how all these drives are installed?
>>285505152>>285505211He needed to tell her to tell Himmel that he'd clear the path for them.Himmel was a confirmed fake so he needed the motivation boost after being exposed. You can see that it happens at the same location.
The demon looks like a 40 year old divorced wine mom
>>285503754Underrated post.
>>285505303Humans don't really NEED to eat animals to survive either.>>285505324Future sight plots often involve some bullshit about trying to avoid the vision only to make it happen and be worse than just doing what you saw in the first place.
Is Macht the Serie of demons?
>>285505357i can fix her
>>285505341i can't take a photo of the inside due to how everything is positioned (monitors and whatnot are in the way) but i have 3 identical SSDs internally (C, G, H) and the D F E Anime drives are 3 external western digital HDDs i have on top of my pc case
>>285504000>Somewhere She'd LikeIn the butt?
>>285504540There's a time travel arc coming up. It's not too bad but I did think the cameo from The Doctor was a bit over the top.
>>285503138Well duh, the whole series is straight out of a JRPG
>>285505386i just want an excuse of why i slapped that sexy cops tits
>>285503754Frieren will turn all opening songs into Green Apple, including the ALI Project song.
>>285505388Tot is the Serie of demons.
>>285505386Yes they do you vegan retardHumans are omnivoresEating animals is part of a healthy human diet. Every non-meat eating human looks like a ghoul. You can only really get away with not eating meat by consuming huge amounts of fish. But I guess fish arent animals, huh?Retard
>>285505173that's not true, the future he saw was one where he would soon be forgotten but like frieren says, the future didn't play out like that and the episode shows he is still remembered as the strongest hero
>killed sexy demon hagbooooo
>>285505421but if timetravel is possible it completelly ruins the point of going to the end of the world to speak with the dead
>>285504711
He bought?
>>285505459How do you know that eating humans isn't part of a healthy demon diet as well?
>>285505403>the D F E Anime drives are 3 external western digital HDDs i have on top of my pc caseWhat happened to people having multiple 3.5" internals?
>>285505473Frieren is a prostitute
>>285505308I still think she would say no, though I think she would let you see her naked for one because while you find her body sexually appeasing, she just sees it as a body
>>285505421>It's not too badPersonally I hated it and made me drop the manga.
>>285505496it's easier to have the HDDs externally so that way i can move them around if need be
>>285505465>First introduced in the second season as a small side story in one episodeHe was forgotten.

>>285505492Because human meat is not different from animal meat. Meat is meat. Demons could survive off of non-sentient animals. They choose to eat human because theyre jerks

>>285505689If this was Frieren's character design how would the reception of the story have been different?
>>285505732No, it's because every character in this show has a winter and summer clothes.
>>285505201she was afraid because of El demonio de oro. That was just a front.>>285505141it's glorious.>>285504794Spiegel was just a short time ago, in the second exam, but it's a mythological demon (akuma) , not one that takes human form (mazoku).>>285504990+1 (Draht was present too when Frieren was arrested, but they didn't fight it).

>>285505927Bucket left open to the whole internet
>>285505471Time travel is effectively impossible in the sense that only a deity can accomplish it (and even then it is only Frieren's mind that time travels). And you don't change history by doing it either, you just make the history that already existed happen.
>>285505927THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE ELFS DO NOT POOP ONLY STINKY HUMAN FEMALES! THE CREATOR OF THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN OUT!

>>285506044she knows you are on cleanup duty
>>285505964>The one that the village tried turning good with HimmelThat girl went maybe a few weeks before she killed again, not years. Where did you get the idea it was years?>Doesn't matter, he had self control over his own actions, which is the point.That a demon could in theory choose to never kill people is immaterial if none ever do it. All we have are ones that delay killing or choose to not kill certain people. It's not claimed demons have some impulse like "I must kill a human once a year" or anything like that.
>>285505392
>>285506005>effectively impossible in the sense that only a deity can accomplish it (and even then it is only Frieren's mind that time travels). And you don't change history by doing it either, you just make the history that already existed happen.huh?
>>285506064As already noted, he planned to die as part of his own plan to bring about the future he wanted.Something happened during this battle that has to be kept a secret too, given he went to some lengths to keep Frieren from being able to see what happened.
>>285496970Show me Frieren giving demons education and then we talk.
>>285506156The story says that they're like wild animals and can't help themselves and that's why they can't coexist, and yet it's clearly shown that they have all the self control over their own actions to choose not to kill.
I want to sniff a stinky human female...
>>285506224Demon hands wrote this.
>>285506224
>>285506207What part doesn't make sense? It's a pretty common time travel trope. You time traveling is something that happened all along, so you don't change anything but rather bring about the existing history. In Frieren's case her mind from the future replaced her mind from the past for the duration of her time in the past. Past Frieren experienced this as a period that she can't really remember, and blames it on trying to decipher the magic of the goddess monument (which in fact was what sent Frierne's mind from the future into her).
>>285506208>he planned to die as part of his own plan to bring about the future he wantedDoesn't sound very demon like.>given he went to some lengths to keep Frieren from being able to see what happenedWas she even an adventurer then?
>>285505473How about a spell to peel hard boiled eggs without mangling them?
>>285506217Comparing them to wild animals is not meant to say they can't control themselves. Rather it is that they cannot be reasoned with to any useful extent. I mean predatory animals can readily choose not to kill as well. Perhaps they are not hungry, or they see it as not worth the effort, or that doing so would put them in too much danger. That doesn't mean you can let a lion live with a sheep for long.
>>285506371You mean put them in cool water and then squeeze them with the palm of your hand? Don't need magic for that.
>>285506374Your loving house cat would eat your dead body with zero remorse
>>285506374>Comparing them to wild animals is not meant to say they can't control themselves. Rather it is that they cannot be reasoned with to any useful extent.And yet Frieren thinks that she can negotiate with them? Talking them down out of a fight? They are not like wild beasts. Wild beasts are not intelligent and able to communicate with other races. Wild beasts do not possess morality or strictly adhere to their own. Wild beasts do not possess all the traits necessary to adopt human morals. Demons do. They are incomparable to animals. They are not acting purely on instinct, they're far smarter than that. You keep saying that they're animals who are intelligent. But the reason why we consider animals as lesser or unable to held morally culpable is because they fundamentally do not have the higher level thinking that humans have to comprehend the idea of morals in the first place. Demons are clearly smart enough to do that. If they're animals, but intelligent, then we can't really consider them animals anymore.
>>285506305He was an unusual demon in that he wanted to ensure future survival for his species.He foresaw that Frieren would be in a situation in the future where she would be able to see the battle with the Hero of the South. So he erased that part of the memory of the demon whose mind she was seeing memories from. He even cheekily spoke to Frieren, knowing she would eventually see that memory.
man retards literally take literally what chars say lmao imagine writing wall of texts because 'MUH POOR DEMONS' literally kys pseuds
>>285505173Schlacht can see all possible futures up to a thousand years into the future. All possible futures makes it clear that the future isn't decided.
>>285505051Yeah! New song for the season. Hoping we get more.
>>285506402What if I want to eat them hot though?
>>285506013Yes, please!
>>285497127Whenever you normalfags and tourists decide to stop flooding the catalog with dozen of pointless Frieren threads
>>285506005people don't like to admit this but future sight is time travel. It's literally information from the future traveling back into the past.
>>285506430>she would be able to see the battle with the Hero of the South. So he erased that part of the memory of the demon whose mind she was seeing memories from.Didn't he die in the fight? Blocking all memory from being made for the next X hours?Dunno about all this. Sounds pretty bullshit to me.
>>285505051I want to hear the full thing
>Frieren is a comfy series about a long lived elf going to visit the land of the dead to see her ghost friend>Suddenly time travel and people from the futureIck.
>>285506579Not that anon, but Schlacht knew Frieren would see Macht's memories a hundred years later after Edel stole them. So he had Grausam erase Macht's memories of the battle against the HotS. He left a message from Frieren in Macht's memories during a conversation he had with Macht.
Women mangakas. Not even once.
>>285506695pretty sure the mangaka is male
>>285506412>And yet Frieren thinks that she can negotiate with them? Talking them down out of a fight? She doesn't. That she bothered at all with Aura simply served to reinforce that belief. Note in today's episode she also briefly tries to reason with the Sword Demon, before concluding that as she expected there was no point. I suppose it is a human failing that even she still tries this with demons from time to time.>They are not like wild beasts. Wild beasts are not intelligent and able to communicate with other races. There are quite a few animals that can communicate with other species to some extent (particularly learning each other's alarm calls).>Wild beasts do not possess morality or strictly adhere to their own. Wild beasts do not possess all the traits necessary to adopt human morals. Demons do. They are incomparable to animals. They are not acting purely on instinct, they're far smarter than that. Many animals (heck, it could be argued most vertebrates) don't act purely on instinct either. But that's beside the point. Frieren never says demons are not sapient. She's making comparisons when she says they are "wild beasts" (which to my knowledge is not even specifically saying they are animals, but rather a specific sort of life incompatible with civilized life).>You keep saying that they're animals who are intelligent. To be clear, I'm not calling them animals. They are sapient monsters. Comparisons to real animals are simply comparisons, as we don't have sapient predators specialized to eat humans in the real world.>Demons are clearly smart enough to do that. If they're animals, but intelligent, then we can't really consider them animals anymore.Except it is not a matter of intelligence but comprehension.
