I didn’t know there was a tournament arc.

Kinda empty around here lately :/

Really cool episode, I’m always blown away by the sheer quality of the animation!

How do they keep pumping out such high quality animation week after week?! Fern and Stark dancing together looked so insanely clean! Fantastic episode, Frieren doing a little hop so she could pat Sein on head was so adorable (* ´ ▽ ` *)

me right now

Finally! It’s been so long.

That bit cracked me up lol , reactions from Stark and Fern were the cherry on top.

Apothecary diaries has been a pleasant surprise, I’ve been really enjoying it. Same for frieren.

Been also watching Saint’s Magic Power is Omnipotent second season, season 1 is one of my favorite animes in recent years but season 2 just hasn’t been as engaging, at least so far, I hope it picks up.

Also, this one isn’t an anime but it is animated, Blue eye samurai, highly recommend everyone to check it out, I absolutely loved it and the lack of buzz around it has been really bizarre considering the sheer quality of this show. I’ve heard it has a fantastic Japenese dub if you prefer watching it that way, I saw it in English, stellar performances all around.

There are a couple of scenes, like Frieren getting out of bed, although watching again I’m not entirely sure if it’s rotoscoped or just made using a lot of reference .

This episode almost had me crying, so good! Also, lots of rotoscoping in this episode, looked very lively.

I very highly recommend Saint’s Magic Power is Omnipotent, I absolutely loved the first season and the second season is currently airing.

Stray gods came out back in August and is currently sitting at very positive on steam, it’s by David Gaider’s new studio, he was former lead writer on dragon age.

I’d also recommend Saint’s magic power is omnipotent, not completely caught up on the second season yet but I absolutely adored the first season.

Why do all the shots of the characters taking off/putting on a piece of clothing look so noticeably good in this anime lol

The new elf seems like Frieren from before Frieren’s time, veteran adventurer who used to be well known but his era has passed, sort of felt like a mirror into Frieren’s future when everyone she knows now has long passed and no one remembers the story of the heroes who defeated the demon lord, kinda sad.

Still feels odd when the elf talk about decades or centuries like it’s barely any time at all.

Are we not doing weekly discussion posts for this show anymore? No post for episode 5 or 6.

Yeah I noticed that too, Fern taking off her robe and throwing it away and Stark putting on his jacket both looked really good, like almost rotoscoped

Yeah took me by surprise too, seems she has zero tolerance for stupidity.

I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate your restraint lol.

I enjoy that too, really feels like a journey.

Oh no! Another cliffhanger >.>

Kinda wish I had waited until this season was over so I could binge it, I have such little patience, but then I wouldn’t have been able to participate in these discussion threads so I guess it’s not all bad!

though the action is not necessarily my favorite part of Frieren

I’m definitely here more for laid-back chill adventure where i get hit with some heavy emotions every now and then, but I guess a bit of cool action once every couple of episodes is not such a bad thing.
