| @Mainnus can someone give me a breakdown on the perspective of this frame? I've paused it multiple times and couldn't quite figure it out. At first I thought Frieren blasted a hole through the hill behind Qual but there isn't one behind him. Maybe a hole straight into the ground but the water/reflection is still. Perhaps it's just a theatrical thing by the animators to showcase her power? |

| Frieren is so old she's seen how a once deadly offensive magic be reduced to something that's easily defended. Kinda like smallpox. She doesn't just live long does she? She's immortal. 80 years and she hasn't aged a day. |

| Beautiful episode!! it's hard to believe we'rejust on e3 ! Beautiful animation!! ))) |
| So far I can see how this could get to a point where it earns the heaps of critical acclaim it's gotten, but I feel like there's a good chance I'm going to ultimately come away thinking "Violet Evergarden did it better." Part of that is my own distaste for the soft magic and lazy worldbuilding most anime fantasy falls into (by that I mean the archetypical fantasy, series like Hunter x Hunter, Dorohedoro, FMAB, etc are some of the best fantasy worlds I've ever seen) and I do worry that Freiren's world is going to fail to differentiate itself from the standard affair—it certainly hasn't done so yet even if it's not the worst offender. I would love to be proven wrong in time but I don't have my hopes too high in that department. The production itself is still top-notch at least. Again, my only critique is that—as much as I like the song—Yoasobi sounds too modern for an archetypical fantasy story. The rest of the music fits brilliantly, which only makes it stick out like a sore thumb. It's too modern and electronic (even if I do like the song). |

| Too long get sealed that his magic just becomes an ordinary offence spell... |

| I don't know how that fight could've been any better tbh. From the fact that his ultra-strong magic back then was outdated after 80 years and could easily be countered, to the end when Frieren defeated him with his own magic that he himself could not block. Another amazing episode. |
| Honestly very nice anime. The magic of this world feels very real and alive too. Great worldbuilding to be honest. Also, the persistence of Humans to overcome anything is evident in this anime! Zoltraak's magic, which used to be very advanced 80 years ago, has become basic offensive magic. LMAO. Humans are really different creatures. |
