There are some ridiculous Himmel moments to come bro, not this season I guess but don't underestimate the author (and the anime) willingness to give him some pure bullshit scene to suck him off even more than usual

>>285535048
Yes he saw a future where the demon king could be defeated which needed his sacrifice and himmel's party
>>
>>285534966
>anonymous
He's mentioned early in S1 anon.
That being said he doesn't get a fraction of the glory that Himmel gets.
>>
>>285535061
No one had the gumption or willingness to defy fate to march all the way to the Demon King's base.
Most people in Frieren are fatalistic, Himmel wasn't.
>>
>>285534333
come to think of it I can't really remember 'ridiculous' himmel moments yet. It's mostly just been dropping lines, getting the village chief murdered, killing a giant salamander, and running from dragon.. looking forward to whatever you're hinting in the future
>>
>>285535173
Because these Himmel flashbacks are from Frieren's pov and she's mostly recounting the fun silly adventure side of things.
She said this episode her party also defeated two of the sages on their journey to defeat the demon king

It's easy to not be fatalistic when your fate isn't shitty

If he trusted fate in the first place he'd have given up at the sword.
>>
>>285536114
He didn't know he would defeat him
He had the word of a stranger he didn't meet who just said that he could see the future without proof. You could technically take frieren joining himmel as proof because he said she would join him, but there were more reasons she joined him than just that. Plus, he didn't know about him and his "I'll clear the path for you bro" line until well into their journey, which was after he had decided to take on the quest anyways

He just never settled.

The Demon King was no slouch. Himmel may not have technically been the strongest, but he was up there.

Yeah they are making all the right decisions again, like S1
Music was amazing, the 'he will change your life line' absolutely landed, puppet show was great and the future arc teasing was fitting.
Next season will be crazy good if the same team are adapting it
>>
>>285537167
The powerlevels in this series are dumb as fuck, more than usual, I will imagine the Demon King died like a bitch until proven the contrary.
>>
I will spend the rest of my life thinking about that girl I should have banged in my youth instead of moving on to someone else. Because that's what Himmel the Hero would have done.
>>
>>285537167
Himmel is absolutely mogged by Eisen in all stats (yes, including speed and perception as is proven later), I wonder if he had some special ability we're not privy to yet.
>>
>>285541050
Charisma and leadership?
>>
>>285541083
I mean, that's cool enough, but not exactly a top priority for a 4-man squad. All his teammates are among the best in their fields. You don't really stabd out as thr best of the best leaders by leading a small team of powerhouses.
>>
>>285533681
Well, his feat is the most stupidly unbelievable through entire series till now
>>
>>285541050
I'm pretty sure Himmel is faster than Eisen.
>>
>>285541050
He scouted heiter and frieren (not sure how eisen joined). That's very special though. Leader at the top is all about hiring the right people. But I get what you mean, he's taller than eisen if that counts lol
>>
>>285535173
The Goddess Monument arc is full of Himmel being an absolute chad. It's should be the arc after the future S3.

>>285546257
somehow the canon looking up freiren looks more goofy than the fan interpretations.

>>285541191
Himmel was likely just a mid fighter with a lot of charisma and leadership skills.
He's the glue that held together the party. Frieren didn't like Heiter, Eisen was insecure and afraid, Heiter was a drunk up to no good, Frieren is a retarded autist in general.

Himmel is a great fighter, but not the best, but his ability to put together a team of powerhouses and lead them to victory is something no one else could do.
Eisen was scared, Frieren didn't care, Heiter was lazy. It's a team that shouldn't work in any scenario. But Himmel made them work.

He's the go-getter CEO and everyone else the stupid wagie. That's his ability.

Autism and oneitis (same thing).

>>285550432
The whole thing about Frieren is that almost everybody suffers from deadly empathy and the only thing preventing evil from curbstomping everything is a handful of autists too socially inept to fall for and be affected by it.

That's the baseline of the series.

Its like 3 frames, they could easily do it. And they're well aware of the meme and have memed it themselves on social media and such already.
>>
>>285550432
Demons are much, much smaller in population, but each demon is strong enough to wreck hundreds if not thousands of humans. So even if there are proportionally more humans (which isn't entirely true either), humans end up taking more casualties. It's not just about killing demons, it's also about protecting the regular humans.
>>
>Why does that make it wrong to eat humans?
Reminder that Frieren had no rebuttal to this.
>>
>>285551830
Because humans don't want to be eaten?
Are you retarded?

>>285551830
Showing respect to the dead, especially your own kind or things that have humanoid form, is a sign of empathy, which is required for cooperation and higher tier civilization
Only back stabbing sociopath (demons) would not understand it

>>
I mean the precog is really important in the current arc (if hiatus ever ends) since it's basically a battle between two precogs. Serie has given away most of her best precog spells and all the mages who asked for it have been picked off. Basically all the Continental Magic Association mages are being held hostage because a future where Serie survives by hiding, the killer goes on a rampage against all her mages. So she can successfully survive because the killer isn't a better mage and can't beat her traps/hiding skills, but they can take all the people from her. So she has to accept a future where she dies so that everyone else can live. I imagine Schlat vs HOTS was the same, where any time the sages didn't team up he just picks them off. Schlat also knows about Frieren and his goal goes even beyond the demon king, so we still don't know how far ahead Schlat's plan is other than he wants demons to survive 1000 years into the future. My personal theory is in the end the goddess transforms demons to be "reborn" as non-human eaters or something.

>Frieren is stated to be a weak than usual elf.
She was already strong when Flamme found her.
The only one who said she is weak for her age is Serie who is a warmonger. Of course Frieren would have been stronger as a mage had she trained for combat for 1000 years instead of goofing around looking for silly spells.
>Frieren is stronger than every demon.
Also not true.
She killed the most, but she lost to some, including one revealed this episode.
>>
>>285533681
gonna be honest I like Frieren a lot but the first two episodes were incredibly fucking obvious and mid, and also stupid
like the author's first misstep was going full shounen exam arc
then she adds fucking retarded crystals which have restrictions which don't even make sense (dude like, mine around them... dude like, put the crystal worth a retarded amount of money that you need in Stark's pocket and have him walk 100 feet ahead of you, you literally left the possibility of him leaving your party entirely open, so what the fuck does it matter)
then she establishes that fucking pre-destiny literally exists which renders the entire show and story literally meaningless
and hey cool sword demon fight except it was so painfully obvious she was a demon, I was like "bitch take your hood off you have fucking horns for sure it would be more shocking if you weren't a fucking demon, you don't need to fucking blow a hole in the ground frieren, literally make her take her fucking hood off jesus it's so fucking obvious"
and the little bit of conflict over stark seeing them not even close to nude and barely undressed was retarded too

He's like a precision tool, though. Serie's scope is so wide, and her arsenal of spells is basically endless. He'd blitz and kill her easily if he got into a 30 yard range. But she could kill him a thousand times over before he ever got there. So it's not clean cut.

No rebuttal. But frieren wouldn't bother saying this outlous. She would just say, "zoltraak"

This "new director" directed half of the first season dummy
In their defense, this is the first time they've met a demon who is actively cloaking their mana to deceive people. Fern and stark are still young. This was a rookie mistake. Plus, fern has a particularly large blindspot when it comes to priests because of her upbringing by heiter, and stark is a little retarded. I agree they were being stupid here, but it's not out of character or bad writing or direction. It's them making a fatal mistake to show just how dangerous these d*mons are

Frieren is pure.
Mere implication that she isn't pure already makes me sick.
She is what elves should be. Pure, maidenly, good natured.
Fern has the disgusting cowtits which means she may become a whore of a woman. Frieren must guide her to be prim and proper.

From all we have seen from the shadow warriors, they only really want Serie to prove a point and anyone else is collateral. The future where they start picking off continental mages en-masse was just retaliation meant to ensnare Serie and keep her from running away. They would probably still kill key mages later on, but not seemingly rank and file mages as well.
>>
>>285556659
I think that was more because he never specifically looked into his own legacy beyond clearing the path for Himmel. He assumed no one would care about the interim no-name warrior who set the groundwork so the actual hero can defeat the Demon Lord.

>>285550797

It is more of a clash of wolrdviews. Schlacht was worried about the survival of demonkind and very likely saw the future with the demon king dying as a preferable one for the race as a whole. He could very well have done some glowy shit in the empire before he died to the chadnof the south. The shadow warriors in the current arc could be his legacy. Not the organization per se but Löwe going out of his way to kill all mages. Demons in general seem to love going to thr empire.
Chad of the south saw a more human future, where Himmel and friends succeed in killing the demon king and Frieren's journey north foils Schlacht's plans eventually. We won't know until Frieren reaches ende and we see what kind of revelations happen in the old castle.

Similar feelings. Frieren meeting HOTS in the same way as Himmel's party and telling her about it cheapens the whole thing. The only thing that can save it is Frieren's one-liner towards the end about how HOTS didn't have perfect future sight since he's remembered, even if not as famous as Himmel, when he sounded like he'd be forgotten entirely. Future sight needs harsh limitations to not wreck a story. (Also Himmel's party spent 10 years getting to where he got to in 1, of course Himmel's going to make more impact on more people.)

>telling her about it cheapens the whole thing
No it doesn't. Himmel still needed to pass a huge CHA check to get her to join regardless. As far sf Frieren knew, until the journey was well underway, HOTS was just some weird arrogant guy she met and dismissed. The only thing it did was give her a message to pass along. Which was pretty inconsequential, really. Himmel was going to go after the DK regardless how many sages were in the way, It really was just HOTS flexing a bit.
>Future sight needs harsh limitations to not wreck a story
It does. Its imperfect. HOT still tried to recruit Frieren to see if he may be wrong. And he thought he'd be forgotten. Its a huge power buff but doesnt make you omnipotent. And the 2 best people at it are dead so the ones remaining are even more imperfect.

I don't understand how is this show as popular as it is. There is no continuity, characters have little agency and input on what is going to happen in episode, everything is being told, little is actually shown. Even the combat was just quick bursts of perspective distortion with flat bright blocks of light mimicking sense of impact. How can this be the best anime of the decade?
