>October 2027Only 553 days to go...
>>287041951Another 10/10 perfect amazing the greatest of all time season? Cringe
>>287041951
>>287041951Why do the horns seemingly get dumber?
>>287041951>random adventurers stopping to helpFUCK YEAH
hope it's like last time and the author drip feeds the manga while we wait
>>287042098Almost the entirety of this season was more slow downtime.
movie or anime?
>2027Fuck man I hope we're able to even access the internet by then
>tfw 35yo by S3 and still no gf
>>287041951sucks that it's next year, but I'm glad it's S3 and not a movie
>>287041951>because that's what ms. frieren would do
>>287041951Last anime season for this shit for a long time. The manga will either be canceled or stuck in hiatus hell.
>>287042319The entire show is about slow downtime anon.
>>287042697Absolute cinema
>>287042779not really. this is especially the lull before macht.
>>287041951How nice of the production to let us experience elf's time perception in real life.
i love side quests
>>287042127because they're not really meant to make any sense. demon designs are all over the place.
>>287042755>The manga will either be canceledIf this happens I wonder if the anime would get an original ending
>>287042591Masturbation is better than gf, trust me
>>287041951>October 2027Nice.Maybe we'll get a couple of new manga chapters until then.
>>287043027>Maybe we'll get a couple of new manga chapters until then.
>>287042826
It's moments like these I wish I was an animeonly watching blind, because that ending stinger would be unimaginably hype.>that badass old man who got in a fist fight when he was out of mana is the hero fighting the strongest demon (possibly) alive to save his homeland?>kino levels off the charts
>>287043455>kinofaggot
>>287041951>October Hey that's pretty clo->twenty-twenty SEVEN >SEVENWhat the shit!?
>>287043455don't worry. I'm anime only watching blind and I'm only slightly hyped. will forget about it next week, and so will everyone else
>>287043067more likely than a madoka movie!
>>287041951Can't wait for another season of nothing happening
>>287043566
>>287042591Masturbation beats gf any day
>>287043455I am an animeonly and I can tell you that, yes, it was hype as fuck
>>287043788>>287043455I clapped
>>287041951That’s faster than their journey to the North most part of the North Continent at least.
>>287043788>another top tier 10/10 golden city arcIt's gonna be so based.
>>287041951WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS JAPAN
>>287044427That was only one top tier episode
>200 years to build a 10 meter long, 2 meter wide wooden bridgeWas he retarded?
Thank God it's an actual season instead of a fucking movie.
>>287044498Take that back faggot. The entire arc was kino, the peak of the series. It just got a bad rep for the release schedule going to shit when it started.
>>287044427>MiA city arc>top tierIt was fucking shit
>>287043455>Lernen trying to explain to Edel the masculine urge to fight against unsurmontable odds and probably die alone, unmourned>Despite having a wife, kids and grandkids Lernen still goes "Goddess I wish that were me"The duality of man
>>287044657Don't forget >not even a real city >more like a larger village with the same 5-6 set locations
>>287045088Isn't this guy a Serie simp?
>>287045088women will never understand
>>287041951I can't wait
>>287042119Cute shocked elf
>>287043603Yeah, that was reaction as well
>2027I didn't expect it would take this long
>>287041951 I don't like his anime look. He looks too feminine.
>>287041951Macha would make a great sith lord.
>>287042697I liked that one. It's anime only, right?
Sex with Macht
>>287041951Who would you want to voice him?
>>287041951So, the hiatus will surely end now haha.... please....
>>287045144The anime will definitely fix that part tough.
>>287043455I'm an anime only, but I don't get hyped by random characters getting screen time
>>287045529But he was the best character of the exam arc.
>>287045088>Oh, to slowly die bleeding out on the snow after giving it your all against a 9ft tall demonFoids will never get it
>>287045617>the masculine urge to use the last of your stregnth to save your younger comrade from death after a defeating a brutal enemy
>actually men dying is good. I hope I get mauled by a bearinternalised misandry
>>287045932I only hope I get mauled by a bear if it was a mutual death
>>287045854>as if that was what I wanted>that's not the height of perfection that I sought for so long
>>287045932getting killed by a wild animal is a fuckin sick way to go out
>>287045245I want to research huuman-demon crossbreeding with Solitar!
when is the demon slut getting her key visual
>>287043672I-it will come out for real this August! I swear!
>>287047255They are keeping it loyal to the source material: Solitar's entire character is being mysterious because next to no one has survived an encounter with her.
>>287047708i can take her demon omanko
>>287045474The anime already adapted it
>>287042591right behind you m8
>>287045407yeah but actually I like it
KINOEven tho I've read this arc twice, I'm still hyped.
>>287048747Will there be meaningful fights? This season was lot of bla bla bla ble ble ble
>>287048901none, they just all sit around and drink tea
>gaydorado
>>287048924wrong they also fish and eat pancakes
>>287048924>>287048949Hell yeah my kind of season
I like the shots at the end of the episode, all the places the group has been are recovering and/or thriving, some places go back to the Himmel the Hero era and only now we get to see them shineIt's like they've been planting seeds of kindness
>>287048924Fuck you then
>>287049038IS THAT A
>>287042319Why make a 10 episode season of slow downtime? If they had stretched this season in 24 episodes, stretching both the slow downtime and the action, I'd be happy, even if the majority was slow downtime. When the season is has only 3 episodes of a dedicated action arc, the whole thing is kind of forgettable.
>>287041951just WHO are they gonna use as VA for Macht?they've checked out so many iconic voices even during this season that i have no idea who fits anymorein my mind a lot of the VAs i know are way too old and deep voice for his regal/cold personality, and the rest are too shonenjust who? i'm going full autismo OCD here and can't relax
It's been so long I don't even remember what happens in the eldorado arc. I just remember that I liked it.
>>287049226It's where the best girl is introduced.
>>287048901Everything will be decided by a chess game with golden pieces.
So now that we've got a year and a half to kill before S32, what are some good fantasy anime to watch in the meantime?No Isekai.
>>287049456Isekai meikyuu de harem wo
>>287049456Rewatch Frie->spoilernevermind
>>287043455I can't get hyped by that loser after he got his ass literally kicked by Frieren. She had him sprawled on the floor face down ass up in about 5 seconds. He's so fucking weak and overhyped it's insane. What a jobber. I'll never trust you guys again.
>>287042591You can be my gf.
Next season will be 24 episodes surely
>>287049845Probably 10 again
>>287049974WTF WHAT IS THAT DEMON DOING THERE KILL HER
>>287041951Season 2 was pretty boring, thoughnestly.
>>287050077Japan loved it
fern's inverted nipples
>>287043027We'll also be just a few months from gta 6 announcing their next delay!
>>287049974>>287050064SHE LEARNED HER LESSONSHE DESERVES TO BE HAPPY;__;
>>287049941>>287049974>>287050064>>287050125Laughing my ass off

>>287050102her 8 inch diameter aereola's
>>287050223>If only bind didn't abandon MTS3 will be S1 quality, trust me haha
This series will never let Aura go...
Glad they are doing the golden city arc as a season. I was afraid they were going to do a movie and would have to wait for BDs. Hopefully they'll do the goddess stone arc as a season as well.Retards bitching in other threads about how this season was slow missed the point of the series entirely. It's about the adventure. It's significantly better off not bouncing from major arc to major arc with barely a moment between.Lol, dwarfs are never satisfied bet it was done ages ago but he just kept redoing it until it was perfect. Doesn't help the monsters kept bothering him.He knows Frieren to a T. Useless pancake magic. Cute to see Fern get excited about it too.The random group of adventurers who came along and helped.Frieren is so light, just imagine carrying her around.Elf in trouble.Good thing Fern doesn't have the fan art dimensions or that fall her butt would have broken through the ice.Just sky nuked the dog.They always reminded me of the Riders of Rohan.Sleepy elf dork.Headpats for fern.What a great season. Back to the regular adventure and a nice break between the major arcs.The Golden City arc should hopefully be fantastic. Macht is the best demon the series has had so far. Not sure if this or the goddess stone is my favorite arc. Hopefully the manga hiatus will end while we wait for the next season.
>>287050430The problem is slow parts were weaker than S1 as well. It was by no means a bad season but it was weaker than S1 in every way.
>>287050410I believe you.
In my imagination she was voiced by Hana Kana. She's the only VA I'll accept.
>>287050430>LET'S LAUGH AT THAT RETARD WHO KEPT INSISTING GOLDEN LAND WOULD BE A MOVIEBAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>287049941Wait a minute...
>>287050703I never insisted it would be a movie anon. That's your own headcanon. I have always hoped it would be a season. There is far too much to cover for a single movies runtime.
>pepe laughing
>>287050703I don't think anyone hoped it would beAnons were dooming that it would be
>>287050705Wait wtf, I just realized they never resolved the tentacle fight
>>287050902it would seem they all survived it
>>287050902It was an alt. timeline
I hope I'll still be alive
>>287050410>>287050485My estimation of that fag as a man has fucking plummetedand Elves need more self respect
>>287042591Girls are not meant to be friends.
>>287043603It’s the Frieren experience. Time moves slower
>>287043603Better than twenty eight
>>287049941what do people use to do this shit ? i want to pathetically self insert hover handing my waifus
>>287051650In this day and age the answer to such questions is usually "AI sloppa"
>>287051714that's obvious, i meant what to use specifically, checkpoints, loras, prompts and the other shit
>>287043455>>287043788>>287043880I always wonder if people really do get excited about media or if they just exaggerate. I enjoy it obviously but even during the most "hype" parts at best my face is :| with some imperceptible lip movement.
>>287052184>He's never been moved by animanga beforeanon...
>>287041951>mfw seeing late 2027 after just 10 episodes following a 2 year wait
>>287052184>>287052409For me it was
>>287049952ZOLTRAAK
>>287042591Masturbation while beating the gf any day.
ELFSLOPJUST ADMIT YOU WATCH THIS FOR THE CUTE SILLY ELF
>>287051241Why?Actually don't tell me.
>>287045245Friendship with Solitar!
>>287052592I never stated otherwise.
>>287045617No, no, they want the same thing. The difference is that men want that to come after a fight.
>>287045088Lernen got cuckified by Serie, she robbed his life like a vampire
>>287045442Suwabe
Lernen had his chance to fight frieren, but he bitched out.
>>287052802He challenged her, she refused
>>287052184When I see something really fucking cool I will literally basedfaceOccasionally if it's SUPER based, I'll stand up out of my chair and dab. On the very very rare occasion I'll actually kneel if something is peak cinema. One time I remember doing this was the final episode s1 of GuP when the did the tank drift for the final shot. When a scene is particularly warm and wholesome I place both hands over my heart and audibly go, "aaawwwww" as I tear upI cry when things are sadI flip off my screen when a character I fucking hate shows upI feel everything deeply and fully and I am better than you
Anyone know who Gehen's voice actor is?
>>287052184>I enjoy it obviously but even during the most "hype" parts at best my face is :| with some imperceptible lip movement.pretty sure that's just you, and defines you as a fucking boring senseless faggotprobably 30 and still virgin too
>>287049218Any guesses?
>>287052866Not just refused, she basically called Serie a pathetic immature bitch that tries to gaslight her own students to try and jump an innocent mage over a thousand year grudge and Lernen couldn't refute it.
>>287053725>over a thousand year grudgeIs she actually a fucking dwarf?
>>287042591masturbate
>>287041951>omg another profound masterpiece 10/10 anime better than the previous season ahhh you need to be mature and intelligent to understand Frieren's feet
>>287042212It reminds me of a time when Himmel the Hero stopped to ask random adventurers for help and they ended up fucking each other in their greasy asses. That was so profound and thought-provoking.
lotta seething already and s3 isn't even here.the internet will be fun then.
>>287041951>"best arc incoming">look inside>frieren if it was shonen
>>287054457You are allowed to have fights in your fantasy storyIt doesn't make the story inherently worse
>>287054457Next arc has the most interesting demon who calls every demon-poster and macht a fool for entertaining peace.
>>287049974Why is she so huge here
>>287054807everytime she gets bullied she grows a few mm
>>287041951tv series or MOVIE only route?
>>287052184I'm nearing my 40s, having gone through thousands of anime and manga, and probably having consumed more Japanese media than you. I still feel a rush of excitement during moments like this. You might be boring in real life and lacking the ability to feel emotions doesn’t make you special or cool.
>>287052648I'll miss her most of all
>>287052648>yurishitfuck off

>>287049881poor girl losing her new grandpa
>>287049974>stark: what are you doing here?
>>287054616You misspelled "the most interesting demon who proves every demon-poster right".
>>287041951I thought it was October 2026. This is the state of the fucking industry right now.
>>287056752sorry about your illiteracy anon, i can see you're making strides though!
>>287054457And to think that Frierenfags try to shave down all people's throats how this series is "different than those action crazed shonens with sakuga fights".
wwwwwwwwwwhere the fuck can I watch this with english subs i found french, sadly, disgusting, and I do not care for french
>>287057138Lurk two years before posting.
>>287057307nigga I dont give crunchy $$$ their shit never works right for people who care about privacy
>>287057138Go back to TikTok, kid, if you can't even do something that basic.
>>287041951It's not a movie?
>be you>comfy solkino>suddenly sakuga fightNOOOOOO
ohhhhhhhhhhhturdies are naming the files s2 instead of s02fucking clown world
>>287041951Another anime ruined by shit release scheduleI'm not gonna give a shit about Frieren by the end of next year because I will barely remember any details about the story.
I can wait as long as nothing fucks with the internet by then
Gonna miss her in the meantime
I do not remember why they are going on their journey in the first place.
Why do people live in the shithole that is the northern plateau Traders, merchants, miners, people looking to get rich, I get it. But why are there normal people setting up towns and inns in this demon-infested hellscape? I thought you could not even get into the place without a first-class mage.
>>287057647This, how will someone tell >>287043455 is kino if you didn't pick the manga after s1 and forgot mage exam
>>287058515frieren was told to go see himmel by eisen
>>287058602I guess their ancestors settled there ages ago
>>287058602>Why do people live in the shithole that is the northern plateauSame reason people choose to live in -60C Siberia
>>287058602It hasn't always been that dangerous. Also if you're some impoverished Northern peasant with no land or prospects the Norm Company putting out a call for settlers to move out onto the plateau might sound like a better deal than being a starving hobo despite the danger.
Why couldn't they have made this season 2 cour?
>>287052592Always had
>>287058728Because two cours do not make as much money as movies.
KINOOOOO
>>287058728Because it getting its own dedicated season is indicative of quality
>>287058728Hell if I knowMaybe they're just a little overstretched from trying to make other anime including this and maybe Bocchi S2?
>>287054975TV movies.>>287058758should get Gucci or some frenchshit /fa/ to sponsor them and 54 episodes.
>>287057019its non non biyori demonslayer.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEVGCJxQisE
>>287058110Hopefully she'll lose weight in the meantime
>>287057138VPN Muse Taiwan.
>>287050430>Riders of Rohan.Riders of POLAND.
>>287050703>GOLDEN LAND WOULD BE A MOVIEit will have a movie adaptation like the Gundams and Macrosses. Trust moi.
>>287043788
>>287045245They're going to focus solely on the obvious threat that is Macht when it comes to promoting S3 and thus make Solitar a huge surprise for the animeonlys. It will be glorious.
>>287042591You're supposed to post a gigachad pic not sad Special Week
>>287052184I do but sadly not from Frieren. The anime this season that had a visceral reaction from me was the finale of Sentenced to be a Hero (cringing from Genau's poses does not count), ironically from a series which had a hyped up first ep from the community but I had lukewarm feelings for.
>Golden land arc confirmed to be another season.Thank fuck they announced it so we can out that bullshit to rest.I just want more hair down Frieren in serious mode
>>287058728>Why couldn't they have made this season 2 cour?Because the team making Frieren are making this movie first
What was the point on not just making this season 26 episodes long to match the first one? I highly doubt they find a timeslot for a 16 episodes season so what are they going to do?
>>287059421They probably wanted to keep the momentum going, than come back with 22 eps S2 4+ years later
>>287059421This cour was the fat that had to be cut
>>287059421>What was the point on not just making this season 26 episodes long to match the first one? Because of the completely unsustainable workload that would be involved>I highly doubt they find a timeslotThe 11pm Friday night anime slot on NTV was created specifically for Frieren >16 episodes season The season will probably be 10 eps again>so what are they going to do?Probably not listen to someone who has no fucking clue what they are talking about
As far as I’m concerned, this arc is one of those classic early-to-mid peak arcs, like Mugen Train or Reze, so why the hell didn’t they make it a movie?Honestly, if they want to push this IP to the next tier, some kind of external boost like a huge hit theatrical release feels basically mandatory.
>>287059550Yes. Quite the underwhelming season tbqdesu. I like the Himmel notebook ep though.
>>287042591I will be 29 but hopefully unalive
>>287059421Had to get the boring shit out of the way.
>>287059598Finding timeslots for anime is the hardest part of any project, this is a huge problem all the time to not think this is relevant.>probably 10 episodesSo you just want a rushed mess? Smart people really went to the shitter lately.
Why do people on /a/ and only /a/ push the idea of a movie so hard? It's not going to happen, and that's a good thing.
>>287052799Shame they wasted him on Aura's random mook in season one.
>>287059742>Finding timeslots for anime is the hardest part of any projectFalse>this is a huge problem all the time to not think this is relevant.False>So you just want a rushed messFalse> Smart people really went to the shitter lately.FalseConcession accepted + Bodied that freak + Your ugly
>>287057019Frieren's style over substance approach is fine since it's writing isn't good enough to make the non battle focused parts shine.
>>287059862Why are you frieren fanatics like this?
Is Stark actually paticularly strong or is he just an okay frontliner that will eventually be a monster?
>>287060046He's really strong, but the series is just not good at portraying it well.
>>287060046He's like Fern, inexperienced and a bit rough around the edges but already peers with much older guys.
>>287059631based
>>287060046His CON stat must already be maxed out seeing how he just tanks blows that would instantly killa normal human being.He got stabbed through the heart and kept on fighting as if nothing had happend ffs.Or maybe it's just the dogshit writing.
>>287041951oh my god I'll be the 37yo guy who looks 17 (KHV) when that airs
>>287057138go to a north korean flea market and beg until they give you the USB with frieren on it. that's how i watch frieren
>>287059753because we grew up with the shitty big three non-canon movies about fighting guys who can turn into jello or whatever

>>287060990>for two decades they were selling fillers in cinemajews fear samurai for a reason
>>287061154Yeah but I'm refusing the mark after that happens so I guess it's foraging life for me.
They can't seriously end it telling me I have to wait until the end of next year to see my boys season?
>>287061176>boys season
>Fern vaporises a dog with an orbital laser that leaves a giant crater>"Sasuga ni tsuyokatta na" -Stark>subtitles: "That monster was tough"He was obviously talking about her
>>287061254Can Stark see her underwear from down there?
>>287061018
>>287061269no she's not wearing any
>>287061176>boys seasonThe entire arc, and manga for that matter, is just a vehicle for the author to write Frieren wank (with a side of Fern wank) except the s3 arc ends up the most egregious and relentless Frieren wank this manga will ever see.
>>287061442Nigger, in the Golden Land Frieren is barely more than a vehicle for Macht (and to an extend, Solitar) to get their arc. And even in the terms of pure powerlevelfaggotry, it is just two extremelly depressed, near-suicidal demons giving her a chance, after a chance, after a chance, until she finally manages to roll that natural 20.
>>287061442>frieren isn't allowed to use her skills that get demonstrated numerous times prior
>>287061559She has a gold experience while there?
I have started reading. A stinky anime only no more
>>287061559Read the arc again, count how many times Macht is stunned to disbelief with how amazing Frieren is. Count how many times Solitar sings her praises and tells both Macht, Frieren herself and sometimes just the reader how amazing she is.Count how many times Denken is saved from death by Frieren, count how many times he is brought inspiration by the words she said to him. Follow how the entire plot was very clearly communicated that it could only be solved by her and no-one else.Plus>Oh you remember that time Frieren dispelled Aura's scales well it may not have seemed like it at the time but it was actually the most amazing thing ever, to the point when I the author is now comparing it to the greatest achievements of mankind>Author than proceeds to show her doing another of these acts not only a 2nd separate occasion but a 3rd in rapid succession I really don't think you know what manga you are reading kek
KWAB
>>287061254Why did the identical army of dogs job and got rekt by the local lord and his men at arms? Didn't those guys JUST job to Snake Man earlier? What the fuck is going on.
>>287061681How THE FUCK did she escape that? She 100% had to offer her body in exchange for her life to MachtGOD
>>287061696>identical army of dogsThose were much smaller and weaker>Didn't those guys JUST job to Snake Man earlier?Snake man is STRONG
>>287061707The elf learned about oral sex that day
>>287061672Solitar is just a humanboo, she was (somewhat condescendingly) commending stark and fern for even fighting her because of how terrified they were. And then she commends Denken for using last second big-brain strats and calls him a great mage. And then she commends frieren in the same fashion.Her behavior is consistently praising humans who do interesting things in her opinion.
>>287061722What made Big Dog big?
>>287061798>Solitar is just a humanbooShe's there to provide exposition for the reader while Frieren is sleep analysing memories. Literally just stepping in to do some of her job for a bit.When she praises Fern and Stark on their teamwork you are meant to believe it, not just because they obviously do work well together but for the above reasons of what the writer is using Solitar for. Same goes for all the times she sings Frierens praises to Macht, you are meant to believe this and will because you see what she speaks of

>It's what Ms. Freiren would doOkay, I cried
>>287061927They ended the season really wellThat line was anime original too
>>287061672>Read the arc again, count how many times Macht is stunned to disbelief with how amazing Frieren is. Count how many times Solitar sings her praises and tells both Macht, Frieren herself and sometimes just the reader how amazing she is.Why don't you do it yourself, because your pic is certainly not related. That's just Solitar being an humanboo in general.In the actual arc Frieren would be 100% fucked if Macht decided to just murder her, instead of having tea with her, and she admitted that herself. She got an extra slice of humble pie, when he does not even remember the encounter that gave her a life-changing trauma. She would be 100% fucked if not for other mages procuring Macht's memories. She would be about 90% fucked if Macht and Solitar did not decide to let her and Denken pick their opponents. (Even if Frieren herself managed to mitigate her known weakness of fast opponents trying to just stab her in the face with physical attacks, Solitar certainly would have blended Denken in no time, and then it would be 2-on-1.) And even then Solitar played into her hand by constantly talking and allowing Frieren to stall for time.As for her getting compliments... In this manga, complementing an enemy's magic can be sign of condescension, like you're judging it from a height of your superior understanding (and indirectly hyping yourself, by praising the foe who is already at the palm of your hand). Like Frieren herself complemented Aura. >Follow how the entire plot was very clearly communicated that it could only be solved by her and no-one else.The plot very clearly communicated that Serie could have bitchslapped Macht, but could not be arsed to bore herself with deciphering Diagoldze, and did not want to antagonize her apprentices for the sake of finishing a fight which outcome was already clear to her.Do you take offense merely at the fact that Frieren is a very strong, competent mage, with few peers?
Retards still complaining about lack of action in a fantasy slice of life anime?
>>287062022KWAB fraudren was such a bum getting no-diffed by macht frfr guess it’s time to drop her from low S tier to high A
>>287061707>>287061759You know, there really is no other conclusion to make, if you consider that Macht controls Diagoldze precisely, except for his inability to reverse it on anything but himself. Outside of hard counter magic, it always affects exactly what he wants it to affect.He must have been getting around quite a lot 600 years ago, if he managed to forget prime elf pussy, kek.
>>287062015>In the actual arc Frieren would be 100% fucked if Macht decided to just murder her, instead of having tea with her, and she admitted that herself.Now you are just making shit up, the reason she tried to get him to attack her is because she knew she could resist him >In this manga, complementing an enemy's magic can be sign of condescensionAgain, you are just making shit up>The plot very clearly communicated that Serie could have bitchslapped MachtI knew you were a Seriefag, kek they always bring up minor shits like this out of nowhere. All you do is engage in headcanon and write they own copefic version of events since the author doesn't give you enough of anything substantial.But no the point of the Seire scene was to show that even a great mage like her couldn't solve the problem, she had no idea how to fix it but Frieren did. I would say learn the role of foil characters but I imagine you will just revert back to your copefic version of events
>>287062015>but could not be arsed to bore herself with deciphering DiagoldzeThat's pure cope. It's clear she was unable to.
kek
>>287062144Serie already diffed him before the fight started lol
>>287062144>Now you are just making shit up, the reason she tried to get him to attack her is because she knew she could resist him...that's not what she says on your page at all.Anyway, have it from Frieren's own mouth, you retard.>>287062193>That's pure cope. It's clear she was unable to.Clear from what?
>>287062022YesBut we also get retards complaining about the presence of action in a fantasy adventure anime, to balance them out
>>287062216Clear from the fact that was the goal, to restore Weise and her plan was to use Macht to do it, just to realize that wouldn't work.
>>287062216>have it from Frieren's own mouth, you retard.Yes, he could have turned her into gold, but she gambled she would have been able to revert it, which entually she did.
>>287050572Hocchan or bust.
>>287062216>...that's not what she says on your page at all.Anon the reason she says he could have turned them gold, and yet she was so confident picking a fight, is that she knew she could resist the spellNow, winning the battle afterwards is an already completely different matter, but she could have resisted the spell
I shall await the flood of Solitar fanart the same way Aura did after S3 aired.
>>287062247>Clear from the fact that was the goal, to restore WeiseWhy she is so happy when she gets an excuse to throw that goal away and why she got mad when her apprentices intervened and reminded her of that ostensible goal?Pic related also should tell you about the amount of fucks she gave about Weisse and her willingness to spend time on deciphering Diagoldze for the sake of some pissant human town. But there is no indication whatsoever that Serie can't do anything Frieren can do. The only mage in the series who did things impossible for others was Flamme.
>>287062216>He could have turned us to gold at any moment>I was confident I could restore my own bodyYou are dense as fuck, read the arc but slower next time you clearly misunderstood huge swathes of it
>>287062359You're entire argument is built around>What is in the manga is wrong>But my headcanon is rightWhich is delusional even for a Seriefag
>>287062359>Why she is so happyCause she loves fighting. >But there is no indication whatsoever that Serie can't do anything Frieren can do.Sure there is. Serie didn't defeat the demon king, Frieren and the hero's party did.Frieren's student mogged Serie's best living student.Frieren has been shown to devour magic and be very proficient at dispelling curses and barriers, starting with Serie's barrier and ending the strongest curse in existence.A significant part of the show revolves around Serie vs Flamme (and then Frieren's) philosophy on magic, with the latter one clearly coming out on top.But let's assume for the sake of discussion that Serie was able to reverse Diagoldze, but she still didn't. Isn't that worse? Doesn't that make her even more worthless?She did not stop demons from genociding elves and taking over most of human territories, she did not defeat the demon king, she did not restore Weise and its inhabitants ... what the hell did she actually achive?
frieren really seethed at this simple question.
>>287062495Neah, she just gave up.But at least she really heard him out, right until he outed himself as just another demon.
>>287062495Deflecting a question with a question outed him as a fraud. If he were more experienced and played coy, Frieren wouldn't have given up.
>>287042591Agemasen-chan...
>>287062412>Honestly it was a gambleFor someone accusing other of being dense, you're clearly not good at reading what's presented to you. Again, have it in Frieren's own plain words. And please try to understand: if a character has a plan, that, in fact, does not guarantee that here plan would work, especially if she herself later rates odds as a "gamble" to an enemy and as "we had no chance" to a friend.>>287062447>Characters are not characters, but mouthpieces of the author at all times, and I'll use this as a pretext to not enjoy the story.Autism.>>287062476>A significant part of the show revolves around Serie vs Flamme (and then Frieren's) philosophy on magic, with the latter one clearly coming out on top.Serie and Frieren have the exact same philosophy on magic. Magic should be hoarded, as many spells as possible should be collected, only apprentices with giga-talent should be taught, and they should be turned into one-trick ponies, because what else can short-lived humans be. All their disagreements on magic specifically really come off as bitchy hair-splitting.>But let's assume for the sake of discussion that Serie was able to reverse Diagoldze, but she still didn't. Isn't that worse? Doesn't that make her even more worthless? She did not stop demons from genociding elves and taking over most of human territories, she did not defeat the demon king, she did not restore Weise and its inhabitants ... what the hell did she actually achive?You're measuring Serie's success by her usefulness to humanity, which is clearly not how Serie herself measures it. Even if she is not actually the real Big Bad of the setting, she wants to life a life of comfort and infinite learning, with strong opponents appearing from time to time to give it spice.

>>287061696>identical dogsConsider paying attention to what you watch
Stop talking about the next arc completely unspoilered please

>>287062574>Deflecting a question with a question outed him as a fraud. If he were more experienced and played coy, Frieren wouldn't have given up.He's not a fraud (he in fact expected that the indication of him obtaining human feelings would be dying from the bracer), and he has no intention of playing anyone. He is wholly honest, Frieren herself admitted it later. Demon.exe just encountered a critical error at that moment.
>>287062613>Serie and Frieren have the exact same philosophy on magic. Magic should be hoardedCome on Seriefag, be reasonable for a second.
>>287062617That is as exaggerated as her breats in fan-art.She does not have that type of damage output.
>>287062731>He is wholly honestbit of a reach, unless you consider him just too delusional at times to realize he's bullshitting
>>287062613>We can't defeat Macht *as things stand now*Please read what you are green texting, this is exactly why she tried to pick a fight with him, because she wanted to improve her chances of being able to dispell his curse by seeing it again. But she knew she could do it on herself since day1, question was whether she could remove it on everything else (answer obvious was yes)Serious question have you actually read the arc because you are either completely unaware of large portions of it or are just willfully ignoring them
>>287062613>Serie and Frieren have the exact same philosophy on magicHonestly feels like this is just bait but since you're a Serifag idk you might actually just be dumb enough to think this
>>287042591get a femboy, they are more loyal and succ better
>>287062759>breats
>>287062805>But she knew she could do it on herself since day1, question was whether she could remove it on everything else (answer obvious was yes)Your determination not to read things written on the very pages you're posting is almost commendable. Even as Frieren herself says that they would have lost to Macht if her plan of baiting him worked as she indended, even as she admits that he could have turned everyone to gold, even after she later admits that trying to undo fullbody transformation would be a gamble, even as she then needs to take months picking through Macht's memories for full analysis of Diagoldze, you still insist that she somehow knew perfectly what she was doing. Because you are THAT determined to avoid enjoying the story.

>>287063558>"why are you killing humans if you want coexistence">i dunno lolFrieren is thinking "goddamn I give up he's retarded". He's reached anon levels of pretending.
>>287063558I read Macht behavior as initially starting from a practical desire of a being who does not trust others, unless he has them figured out completely, to comprehend how humans think, why they can value something above self-preservation, why they attempt to kill him just because he slaughtered some village that is not ever their own village, and so on. And then he got really, really obsessed with understanding humans and their emotions, just for the sake of understanding, no longer just as a survival tactic. Depending on how you look at it, he failed either because he was too prideful and refused to correct his methodology, as he interacted with humans (and found he's liking it). Or because the killing compulsion was too strong, and he could at most delay/minimize human death ("I'll turn everyone to gold one day... but not today", "I'll butcher the first batch of adventurers in a gruesome ways and leave their golden bodies as a warning, instead of trying to lure more humans in"), but never conceive a course of action that excluded it entirely.

>yfw everything after Macht is filler
>>287065442>12 episodes
>>287065510Bodyguard arc feels like a different series.
did anyone else wish they'd use a little bit more variety in the spells? this entire episode was just magic lasers. at least cast a fireball or something ffs
>>287065729The Zoltraak Snipes will continue until they stop being practical.
>>287065729Fern doesn't know any other spells for battle
>>287065751sure but Frieren does. we saw a bunch of great spells during the exam arc and now its just zoltraaks all the time. kinda boring
>>287065729Zoltraak is basically the magic equivalent of a rifle. It's specifically made for killing. It doesn't do anything else. It's extremely efficient at what it does. Other types of magic are more like repurposed spells applied to combat. Mages use them presumably when they are not as familiar with more efficient, direct combat spells like Zoltraak, or because they have some innate affinity for that particular style of magic that makes it easier to use for them.Zoltraak was one of the first spells that Frieren taught Fern, and she's been practicing it since she was a little child. She can modify the spell to suit her needs, and can cast it very quickly or at extreme range, which we've seen catch many of her opponents off guard. What would she use instead? Frieren basically made the deadliest combat spell her go-to choice from childhood.
>>287065821Because the main characters (and the author) doesn't really care about offensive spellsFrieren want spells to do mundane shit, Fern asked for a laundry spell when she could have chosen the fireball, or whateverIt's kind of part of their characters that Frieren and Fern just do what is the most efficient because being great and knowledgeable combat mages are not what they care about. They would rather go and share a footbath and help an old dude clean a statue
>>287065821Frieren answered this awhile ago.Minus the top 0.1%, you don't need anything else but zoltraak and basic defense spells for the current era.Fern is a monster now because she spec'd into mana and two spells.
>>287063740Animeonly fag here.Is it worth reading the mangoo if I just care about Ubel?
>>287065821Zoltraak is a relatively new spell, Frieren had to learn to fight demons and other mages before it existed. Fern didn't set out to be a combat mage, she only learned zoltraak because Frieren taught it to her as an exercise. If Fern were more inclined to pick fights against other powerful mages, or demons, I think she'd probably learn more types of combat magic, but she isn't, and she doesn't. She gets by with zoltraak and does fine with it.
>>287065948Ubel gets pretty major role in the current arc, but we're in a hiatus hell. So not really.
>>287065821She used the tongue twister spell to defeat the Octopus..
>>287065089>>287065142What makes you say that? There's been no evidence of demon intervention in the current arc, it's just humans warring against humans/elves. Hell the big bad said his plan was to rid the world of magic, which includes demons
Why didn't they animate the chapter where Fern got raped by a pack of goblins?
>>287066377Serie's conversation with the emperor
>>287066393That didn't happen and your rape fetish is disgusting.
>>287066852No, wait, you're right, it was a doujin. They should have animated it anyway.
>>287065510Goddess monument will be kino
>>287067132Goddess monument will be monetized into a movie
>>287067189Right, just like >>287041951

>>287065729>Expecting creativity from a third rate battle manga with no stakes and OP protagonistsIt will all be lasers I'm afraid.
>>287062652That was 26 weeks which fits perfectly in 2 cours.
You wouldn't get tricked by demon's body, right?
>>287062144>But no the point of the Seire scene was to show that even a great mage like her couldn't solve the problem, she had no idea how to fix it but Frieren did.You see, Serie's not the one that had to spent hundreds of years trying to fix a golden arm and also got hundred of years of memories from Macht himself to dispel his curse.Because such a thing wouldn't happen to her in the first place.
>>287067799That's where our baseball team came from.
>>287065821Frieren is just lazing it up whenever she can. It's interesting because as OP as she is, Frieren isn't really a dedicated combat mage. She likes to do shit like analyzing spells and countering them.
>>287043455>>287043788I wonder if anime will expand his backstory.
>>287044505Stop making fun of my guy. He's a perfectionist.

>>287067132It had some mediocre middle chapters. Like the weaker chaps/eps of S2. Key parts were good tho. I think I'll reread it.
>>287059421Next season will most likely cover exactly 24 chapters which will be 10-12 epidodes.
There will be a message from Yamada (the writer) about the status of the manga at Frieren's Anime Japan panel in 12h time.Expect the manga back next monthYou heard it here first
>>287062771>>287063558>>287063673The thing that keeps Frieren demons fascinating is that starting from the nameless girl and all the way to Macht they appear rational and fully capable of cooperation with humans on basis of mutual self-interest, just like they work with each other. There is no issue of obligate predation or animal instincts between the species. For Macht not eating humans for, like, 80 years, was a simple as wishing so. Demons very rarely get emotional fulfillment from making humans suffer and die. Solitar is one of the worst in this aspect, and what she set up when she had a chance to do things just for fun was a fucking marine museum/library, not a torture chamber. And yet, again starting from the nameless girl all the way to Macht, they all eventually say or do something so insane, that you can't help but suspect that you're talking with a predatory mimic, who just got really good at parroting human speech. It is like they are not capable of fully processing the idea that killing humans is wrong and should not be done, even if killing humans directly contradicts their earnestly held goals. While the story so far gives biological explanations for their nature (gives in-character), I think they act more like glamorous orcs/terminators, who are gradually developing past their core directive, but aren't there yet.

>golden nameknah that shit made me drop the manga back then. It's a turbo slog about some random dude no one gives a fuck about.It lasted like a year or something, it was boring as fuck.
>>287071515No, those bridges didn't require magic, superhuman strength or two centuries to build, just roman engineering and a few years.
Everyone told me Season 2 was going to be "Golden"And all we got was one scene at the end?Y'all liars
>>287071160>souceJust wait a few hours, the mangaka does leave messages every now end again so this isn't an unexpected thing. Like end of last year when Frieren volume 14 was most read ebook on Bookwalker (ignore wonky Google translate)
>>287071954The dwarf didn't have magic or superhuman strength from what we've seen. He also did it mostly alone, over a deep chasm rather than a river, and without the resources of any government. We also didn't see if it got destroyed by monsters at any point and he had to start from scratch.Still, I think the author should've made the bridge out of stone to justify the 200 years it took, even if he built it by himself. Especially since there don't seem to be any trees nearby and the guy building it is from a race known for mining.
>Fern celebrating at the mention of pancakesDamn this girl is going to hit the wall at 21 or whenever she gets pregnant for the first time

In the first place it was bullshit that they didn't just fly over the canyon. They keep giving us retarded reasons for them to not just fly over things that are totally unbelievable for how far and fast we've seen them fly during fights.

>>287072034Nice, thx anon
>>287052523Well, the manga is on the same boat
>>287073734It's weird because it's all superficial issues that could've been easily fixed.>make the canyon a whole lot wider>make it so windy it's believable that they couldn't simply fly across (optionally, make it so Frieren points out it's unnaturally windy and it's probably monsters causing it)>make the bridge bigger, more impressive and made out of stone
>>287073913yeah, the author just put zero thought into it.>slight gust blows by>holy FUCK guys there is no way we can fly over this 30 meter wide canyon>proceeds to fly at mach 5 into the stratosphere to snipe a monster
>>287061176Yes, I guess it was also on purpose that they made the 2 last eps the only good eps this season. Hero of the South was the only good thing from the previous eps.
>>287042591I will be a wizard!Funny
>>287045186>Serie>Orbiters
>>287073983It's not necessarily just the author's fault. On paper you could see these concepts working just fine.>gang comes across a huge canyon>it's too windy to fly across>Frieren says a dwarf spent a couple hundred years building a bridge not too far from where they are, and it should be finished alreadyThe problem was that the ideas weren't portrayed believably.
>>287072466>A spell that turns body fat into mana? Mistress Frieren, that spell is utterly useless.
>>287074270According to some guys at 2chan that was intentionally an unrealistic "Snorlax" situation and you aren't supposed to take it seriously.
>>287074586>Snorlax
>>287074586I don't think that logic works outside of videogames.
>>287074586>we trained him wrong as a jokei like frieren and have it on my shelf but come on anon. the author dropped the ball here and there and that's it. let's still enjoy it.
>>287074586ok they didn't convey that it was intentional in how it was presented though. from all I could tell we were intended to take it seriously. they're just making excuses for bad writing. not like this is a first or last for Frieren though, we all hopefully understand what it is and isn't as a story at this point.
>>287073913>>make the canyon a whole lot widerit is, animeonly, anime changed the scale because ???
>>287050223MT is shit at the same level as Re:Zero don't compare it to Frieren and Yuusha kei
>>287073734They should have said that the canyon disrupts magic because of ley lines or something and can't be flown across for that reason. But that still wouldn't fix the bridge not being impressive enough for 200 years, or even 20 years. Turbo fail on the part of the storyboarders.
why was this season so short? season 1 was more than twice its length.
>>287075326The journey ended.
Really? That’s it? Season 2 was fucking lame. Literally nothing happened.
>>287075357I'm surprised the ice didn't break under Fern's HUGE ass.
>>287075578FERN ISN'T FAT! uh, pic unrelated.
When is the episode when Stark finally rapes Fern?
>>287075818>he thinks it won't be the other way around
>>287075818next season, 2 more years
>>287062495>>287063558>>287063818the thing about Macht and demons in general is that they're wholly incapable of understanding basic human emotions like empathy or guilt and in their pursuit of trying to understand these emotions (why humans feel bad when someone else gets hurt or they do something they know is wrong) they end up causing incredible amounts of destruction. the whole reason Macht turned an entire city into gold in the first place was just to see if he could feel guilt after befriending humans and betraying them, and in the end he felt nothing. Frieren knew from the start Macht's vision for coexistence would entail countless human death and suffering because demons are by nature incredibly callous beings that think nothing of killing or torturing random people. they can't even bring themselves to care about the lives of their fellow demons beyond basic self-interest.
>>287076013>what if the antagonists were just soulless monsters with an irresistible compulsion to kill people?gosh how original and groundbreaking
>>287076089soulless monsters who sometimes attempt to aspire higher, and fail.That's why it's kino.
>>287068474no moot, what if another guy with a board appears?
>>287069111Invisible for dumb people.
Will we still be having Frieren friday threads until then?
>>287076134MOAT god dammit
>>287075726...cow.
>>287075200It is fine for the 10 years or so that passed since himmler got there. I'd like to think that procuring the materials was very hard for a place like that, assuming what lies ahead was a frozen wasteland and a stormy gigalake before them. It could've easily been an issue of logistics rather than Gehen's carpentry capabilities. Maybe a certain strait necessary for running supplies was closed off even eh?
the ultimate antagonistic force in frieren is entropy. entropy caused himmel to die of old ageentropy has left the elves a stagnant people marching apathetically towards extinctionentropy will take away all the places where frieren formed precious memories with the himmel partyfrieren's whole quest is to find heaven and confront the goddess to determine if there is even any point to heroically struggling against entropy or if this is truly an uncaring and unyielding universeto that whit, demons are best understood not as evil monsters but as angels of entropy. Wherever they go and whatever they do, it will rapidly increase chaos in the area and accelerate entropy. Every destroyed village is another little bubble of order that has been popped forever. and that's why Frieren doesn't hate demons. May as well hate meteors for the random destruction they cause for all the good it'll do you.
>>287076502>frieren's whole quest is to find heaven and confront the goddess to determine if there is even any point to heroically struggling against entropyhey pal, she's just trying to talk to himmel again, take a breath
>always out of travel fundshow come frieren doesn't have ten or so different unlimited money spells already
>>287076810because she'd attract more demons that way
>>287076502she needs a ring
>>287076810>different unlimited money spells alreadyThose spells were banned by the fed because they make it evident the centralized FIAT system is completely fraudulent
>>287076013>the thing about Macht and demons in general is that they're wholly incapable of understanding basic human emotions like empathy or guiltGuilt, yes.Empathy, no. In fact, older demons are masters of empathy, capable of deciphering most human emotions at a casual glance. And if by empathy you mean the ability to actually feel happy or sad because others do, Macht specifically listed affection and sorrow among feelings he understands just fine. In your attempts to desribe them in the most boring way possible, you also forgot that they don't feel malice. >the whole reason Macht turned an entire city into gold in the first place was just to see if he could feel guilt after befriending humans and betraying them, and in the end he felt nothing. Macht expected to be killed by the bracer for trying to commit such malicious action. He spells it out in plain thoughts eventually. You know, in his final monologue where he's wracked by guilt, even as he laments never achieving it. Macht changed hell of a lot. Every one of his actions in Chapter 103 would be unthinkable and hardly comprehensible for his original self. Unfortunately, these changes were too little and too late, and he refused to admit/was incapable of admitting that his plan was wrong, while he still had power.>they can't even bring themselves to care about the lives of their fellow demons beyond basic self-interest.Funny how demons in this series never use weaker demons as cannon fodder never meant to survive or put them through trials meant to kill a substantial portion of them. Humans do.
>>287076995>by empathy you mean the ability to actually feel happy or sad because others donot what empathy means
>>287075357fern's not winning any medals with a jump like that
>>287076995>>287077041Empathy is a complex topic, but from what we see from Macht, he is unable to feel human empathy in a way that resembles sociopathy/psychopathy>capable of deciphering most human emotionsNot the same as empathy, pyschopaths are very manipulative and their whole thing is that the part of the brain that should handle empathy is damaged.Just reading the emotions isn't enough
>>287068872Maybe it was magic wood, vulnerable to carpentor tools but immune from everything else.
>>287077187The difference between demons in Frieren and what's colloquially known as a psychopath is that psychopaths can understand empathy even if they can't feel it.Also, a lot of people see a demon show some emotion and think that's a sign of empathy when it isn't. Empathy isn't the ability to feel emotions, it's the ability to feel for others. Psychopaths can feel for themselves just fine.Ironically, when suckers go "see? demons have empathy too" because they saw Aura crying or that demon girl being happy right before she gets cut in half, it's their ability to relate with that sorrow or happiness that blinds them from realizing the emotions those demons are feeling are purely self centered.
>>287041951LOL wow why did they even animate this middle bit what a joke
>>287078402It's to filter out the fags who don't deserve to see whats next
>>287076995>Empathy, no. In fact, older demons are masters of empathy, capable of deciphering most human emotions at a casual glance.recognizing and aping emotions isn't empathy. demons can recognize that a person is sad when someone they love dies, but they're incapable of understanding why.>Macht expected to be killed by the bracer for trying to commit such malicious action. He spells it out in plain thoughts eventually. You know, in his final monologue where he's wracked by guiltwhat the fuck are you talking about? his final monologue is literally him admitting that he was never able to feel guilt or malice and just being another demon that was only capable of acting in their own self-interest. his last act was literally trying to hold Gluck hostage to prolong his life.>Funny how demons in this series never use weaker demons as cannon fodder never meant to surviveliterally every demon heading a group has done this. Aura sent three of her goons to do her dirty work knowing they'd probably die and felt nothing over it. Revolte literally tossed his sword at one of his comrades disguised as a human child knowing that demon was going to die from either the sword hitting them or from Genau coming back to his senses. even the demon king tossed hordes of demons all around the continent fully aware most of them would die. demons do not give a shit about other demons. they only work together because one demon is strong enough to threaten compliance or out of mutual self-interest. even when they talk about the survival of their species, it's framed within the context of demons going extinct being personally inconvenient them.
>>287075102The canyon looked more imposing in the anime tbqdesu. The animators also diligently removed the surrounding trees so at least the audience won't think that the dwarf spent himmel's monies on booze given there was ample lumber for the wood bridge.
Will Fern ever learn any other combat spells?
>>287080466she's mogging the shadow warriors with the tried and true combo, so not anytime soon.
>>287080466you only need one attack (zoltrak, outside of the mana detection range), very impressive fern
>>287080466If she ever loses a fight, she might have an incentive to.
>>287080466>boxer with perfect winning record asked why he doesn't change his fighting styleWhy would he?
>>287080466>I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.
>>287080466She can eat her enemies whole
>>287080789k but Bruce Lee probably knew every kind of kick under the sun
>>287060046 He's about as strong as Himmel. It's why Frieren keeps making passes at him.
>>287060046My impression is that he's exceptionally strong but is just lacking confidence and experience. He doesn't realize his own strength and abilities, and consequently, other people underestimate him.
>>287080988Frieren always encourages him :)
>>287081104He's also a lot less like that by the end of Season 2.
LOL
>>287080906But Fern do know other spells, including Fire ones (she uses to make bonfires). She just isn't allowed by Frieren to use them in battle. She said so in the Mage Exams Arc.
>>287081420is this how zoomertards pirate anime?
>>287082476official
>>287082476That's how Millennials used to pirate anime back in the wild west era of youtube. A lot of kids I know watched Haruhi and Death Note in 10 minute segments uploaded to Youtube. Hell, I knew a kid who got tens of thousands of subscribers to his channel because he uploaded tons of trashy romcom shows in the mid 00s. Just chopped them up into 10 minute segments and raked in the views.
>>287074790
I can't believe this will be the last Frieren thread for the next 500 days...
>>287080466Fern just needs a battle where Zoltrak is completely ineffective
>>287082859enjoy the calm anon, s3 is gonna bring a whole new batch of retards who misunderstand everything
>>287082882It's just trolls. Any popular show will attract trolls to it. These days the anime scene is so fragmented though that even a very popular and well-acclaimed series like Frieren doesn't draw the kind of trolling attention that past hit series did.
>>287082859
>Edel transfers her lewd thoughts into you before thread dies
