Plus, they weren't just travelling on the way to the Demon King's castle, they were basically fighting a war as they went. Walking is one thing. Carving a path through enemy territory is another.
@@thomasyoung3342 Plus , they werent just fighting war . they helped everyone in need , no matter how much time it consumed . Himmel is considered a hero , not because he slayed the demon king , but because he helped an old granny with her luggage , helped a lost girl to find her way to her home. and many more epic adventures !!!
Finally, Chris gets Frieren. His past comments about previous episodes got me worried. I worried that he’d get bored because he’s not used to non-action packed anime, but it seems like he’s finally understanding what Frieren is about. 🎉
And then we get to the mage exams, eventually, which is basically just a Shonen Tournament arc. Also some of the most baddass animated magic fights you'll see in, well...anything, really.
@@MadMadNomad Parts of that was the only thing I disliked, I was fully invested in Frieren from the first episode as i'm an emotional wreck but the episodes where it ended on the start of a fight for Frieren and she literally doesn't move a single step in the entire next episode kinda annoyed me 😅😅
The funniest line to me in the entire series and Eisen was the one who delivered it! "Frieren, thats not how relationships work." It fits so perfectly that I had a double take moment the first time I heard it.
Frieren is the one of the best shows i've seen bring up religion. While i dont believe in any type of god i love how religion is explained in the show. How people do deserve the kindness for living their lives to the best of their ability, even when in the show frieren brings up the fact that scientifically its not likely they don't shy away from talking about it. Religious themes are all over the place in frieren and i feel like its one of my favorite sources of representation for the topic
About how long their original adventure took: it took them 10 years to get to the Demon King, but apparently they returned really quickly, so it wasn't a 20-year round trip. It's not explained why or how or why, but basically they were all together for only about 10 years.
I’d like to think it took 10 years because of the side quest along the way, it feels like the difference between playing a game just the story vs 100 percenting the game.
@@nigelseawell4986 Yes, i think it makes sense to me that a trip to the north (with many trials and tribulations) takes much more time then just the trip back with supposedly nearly no conflict.
@@nigelseawell4986 honestly this is such a good answer cause even Frirern herself mentioned that Himmel would always get side tracked by people who needed help and his good nature wouldn't stop him for ignoring them
It make sense at the first travel they had to fight enemies and discover the way and transportation as they went and they did side quests. And in way back it was easy sailing until home
It suttle, but it does shows later on. They are the party that clear the most dungeon, so I'm sure the reason that it took them so long is Himmel just drag them around to clear dungeon XD
In all honesty, Heiter's take on heaven is really great. He knows for a fact he can't prove it that's why he said what he said. And Frieren herself said that it's a thing that can't be proven nor disproven. So he just decided that it's better to think it's real. Heiter is a real G. He believes what he believes and doesn't force it on others. Eisen is also a G because he didn't mock Heiter's beliefs and actually picks it up. That's a good interaction.
It was a 10 year round trip. But it took longer to get to the Demon King's castle because of all the side quests and battles they had to endure. After defeating the Demon King, the return trip was a lot shorter because they had no more demons to fight
Haha, Chris’s song to the pirate jig montage music was genius! Frieren’s comment “tatta juu nen” たった10年 is subbed as “a mere 10 years,” but it can also be translated as “just 10 years.” To me, the latter is more accurate to what she’s saying because I think she’s just being matter-of-fact about it. By saying “mere,” it makes it sound more trivial.
10 year journey in total, not each way. The time it took from leaving to returning was 10 years. Also, there's a reason why the only elf we've seen so far is Frieren, but that gets explained later.
Now we just need someone to take Chris's sea shanty and triple up the voices and harmonies. Frieren calls Heiter a "namagusa bouzu" with "bouzu" meaning monk and "namagusa" (nama = raw, kusai = smell/stink) meaning he reeks of raw/bloody meat/fish. Because Buddhist monks are supposed to be vegetarians (the Buddhism that traveled up through China and over to Japan), and Heiter's overindulgence in his alcohol intake is like him straying from the teachings. (For some reason people think it's that he drinks alcohol at all that's a problem, but he's clearly drinking more than he "needs" to if he's got crippling hangovers every week (ep1).) Another comment mentioned this, but the common trope used in Japanese derivative fantasy (light novels etc) is that because elves live so long they don't have the same reproductive urges we do. Makes sense when you think about how humans don't give birth to litters and that even having two babyspawn at once is considered rare. As for what I remember from D&D's Forgotten Realms setting, I think there's like... a finite amount of elven souls in circulation? And that every time an elf is born it means another has passed somewhere in the world? And that the main elven/elvish deity guy is waging a war on all things orcs or something? Different settings deal with the forever-people population problem in their own ways lol.
I mean, Tolkein's Elves are fully immortal (At least when it comes to "Natural Causes"), but they don't overwhelm middle earth because various wars and Morgoth, Sauron and Co. keep killing so many, and the rest take off across the ocean.
@@allmightylowercasejay1138 Your right elf's live far longer than regular or average people with exceptions of demon , elf's, warlock's, dragon - Freiren people were wiped out to add to your point.
Ten year adventure. Five years there, and five years back. There and back again, and alive to tell the tale. The adventure isn't complete till you get back home.
I love that eisen is just like "dang hes right, i still dont believe it, but i would like for heaven to exist. So if it does, lemme join you in orayer"
Flamme is the most competent character in the show. Her ability to read/understand people + prediction capabilities were immaculate. The thousand + year old elves seem like little children next to her.
Man oh man I so look forward to your reactions to future episodes. There's nothing really unimportant or throwaway, nothing wasted in the storytelling. If you watch closely you get so many rewards later on. I've been reading fantasy stories for over 50 years and this one is absolutely one of the top tier.
What Frieren keeps calling Heiter in Japanese is "namagusa-bouzu". The first part comes from the adjective "namagusai", which usually means 'fishy-smelling' or 'foul-tasting', but can sometimes be used in the sense of 'fallen' or 'corrupt'. 'Bouzu' originally refers to a Buddhist monk with a shaved head, but in Frieren's world I guess it can be used more generally to refer to anyone in religious orders. And for what it's worth, I'm a Christian, and I believe in the hope of heaven. It's what I wish for everyone.
In case you're wondering how old Frieren is, it's said from when it's shown the flashback when she was planting the sapling with Flamma, she's over 1000 yrs old in other words
Necromancy itself isn't some dark evil force. Like any magic or tool its how you use it. You can burn people alive or stab them with knives after all. Necromancy at its core was always just conversing with spirits.
This show is so good. I hope they keep going with a second and well just keep up with the everything. I have seen different information on season 2. I am almost positive it will happen, they cannot give up on such a good thing.
the hole adveture was 10 years so it was probably longer to get ther then to get back they had to fight lot of enemys to get to the castle brobably it to 10 years then they got home in a few monts. i dont think when eisen sad it took them 10 years that the journey back took 10 years as well
I love how they talk about religion in frieren. I struggle with doubts in my faith all the time, but like how corrupt priest says, it's more convenient if x exists. no matter which god or goddess you believe in or whatever afterlive you believe in or nothing at all. I choose to belive in my faith and even if I have doubts I choose to believe.
It didn't took them 10years to go there, the entire Journey was 10 years. They went to Ende, killed the Demon King and returned to the capital. 10 years in total, mainly because of side-quests
My favorite part is how they never actually talk about the demon king fight. Just about the stuff in between. The destination doesn't matter its the journey
I haven't seen this show before, I'll definitely have to check it out! Noticed you reacted to Megan Thee Stallion a couple weeks ago, she's releasing a new single this Friday called Neva Play featuring RM. Would love to see your reaction! 🤩
Flamme is actually pronounced “Flawm” and it pretty much means “Flame” in french Edit: It’s German and French however due to the shows narrative it’s technically German in this sense
No, it took them 10 years to get there and defeat the demon king. They did a bunch of sidequests along the way. Helping other people in need, they didn't just gun it to the Demon King's castle. There is no reason to believe they took 10 years to return. Frieren is purposefully taking the same path they took to encounter all the people who had interactions with Himmel so she could know him better. Simply flying to the Demon King's castle would utterly defeat her quest to know Himmel. And, to be honest, that is lame storywise.
It took them 10 years in total - so, maybe, 5 years there and 5 back. But it probably took longer to get there than to get back. As you will see, they did a lot on the way there!

Rest in peace Atsuko Tanaka (VA from Flamme) died after long illness 20th August. She will definitely missed and be remembered. 61 is no age.
She's *the* Major Motoko Kusanagi for me. o7
Damn... 61 and still able to do such a good voice... O7
Rip...
🙏🙏🙏🙏
It only took ten years because of all the side quests that they were doing remember it's not the destination, it's the journey.
Also, their return trip had to be _significantly_ faster, or else the kingdom would have celebrated the Demon King’s defeat without them.
Plus, they weren't just travelling on the way to the Demon King's castle, they were basically fighting a war as they went. Walking is one thing. Carving a path through enemy territory is another.

Yeah i also think ep 5 and 6 gon lock him in
first mistake watchers do is that they don't know the first 4 episodes are meant to be watched in one sitting
I did the same thing tbh, first episodes bored me as it seemed slow, i kept going and now i love even the first episodes in hindsight

Elves don't have a population problem because they don't have a sex drive. Frieren didn't even realize she loved Himmel until after he was dead.
True . But they still have children just have different standards of doing it.
