| Praises to the perseverance exhibited in a commendable renown. Bitter cold weather really does kill. She's a really exceptional mage too, she keeps her distance from her opponent like a first-class mage. I'm fairly certain that the author meant to convey emotions of a post-apocalypse-demonic-warfare retiree adventurer, an emotionless elf. The anime does a great job in capturing what the author had wished to bring to life. |
| "All things, be they divine or mortal, find their ultimate end. It is not a harsh punishment, but a merciful pardon."  |
| Ah they got us with the ol' "no one ever loved me growing up" backstory for Stark even though.. it very clearly seemed like his brother cared for him Anyway, I want a hamburg steak for my birthday |
| Oh the anniversary steak, damn that was sad to see Stark's backstory, his brother seemed to be a really good guy. |
 |
| Stark really can't catch a break free my mans |
| "Do you believe in gravity?" |
| No way, now I legit think that Stark is the best character here. Bro didn't try to pull out the sword because he knew he can, I'm sure of it. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Ah... Man I love Fern |
| lol at Fern calling Stark ecchi Anyway, there are two parts here. First, we learn that Himmel wasn't able to pull the Hero's Sword. He became a hero despite that, but I wasn't please that Stark made no attempt to pull it just for fun. Part 2 gives us insight on why Stark didn't do it. He is what we call a late bloomer. He is considered talentless and a failure. His father was hard on him. It's his birthday but to his knowledge, he wasn't given any gifts. Whilst the flashback scenes of Stark leaves some to be desired (it could be more emotional), it's enough to characterise him as someone relatable. As mentioned, nobody gave him any gifts, and Fern will be the first to officially five him one. But with some flashbacks on why Eisen is giving large steaks every time somebody has a birthday, it is considered a present, and that his brother had given him one. It dawned on Stark that he received a birthday present all along, and that he is loved. BEAUTIFUL |

| Damn this show gives me the water works ;-; |
 |
| Stark's childhood was tough. Good that his older brother ordered him to run away when everything went south at their village. Overall, fine episode. It could've been very good, if not (again) that dumb Frieren scenes, this time filled with moe and feetservice. Welp. |
| Why am I getting teary-eyed just from Stark getting a birthday present?!? AAAAAAAAAAAA Welp someone need to remind him in the future to try pull the Hero Sword as he could probably do it |
| This has been a lovely slow-paced episode! That village that protects the sanctuary of the hero's sword gives off such a post-apocalyptic vibe, which might be because it seems so lifeless. The chief of the village is cute though! Anyway if Himmel could not pull off the sword from its sanctuary despite eventually beating the demon king as a true hero would, that might be more to the fact that the sword itself holds little significance. Or something else, who knows? I finally saw Frieren's smug-meme ======================================== The main spotlight of this ep is Stark, the moment he had some free time, he went all around the town to help the townsfolk in need as well as hanging out and mingling with them. He's truly a kindhearted and selfless individual, a social butterfly as well compared to the quieter and more reserved Fern. Bruh, Fern had so much respect up until my man saw an oppai in the sky XD lmaoooooo. Still, he got his birthday present from Fern and afterwards, his birthday meal from Frieren. Now... About Stark's backstory... He was an outcast, his family considered him a failure, a worthless good-for-nothing child who would never become a proper warrior. Yet despite all that, the pride of their family, Stark's brother Stoltz, greatly exemplify what a great older brother would do. When nobody bothered to teach him, Stoltz happily stained his outfit for Stark's training. When nobody would ever celebrate his efforts, Stoltz alone celebrated his effort by cooking him a giant hamburger. A true big brother up until the end, he sent Stark off to survive with a smile on his face. I'm not gonna lie, I cried when Stark made the connection and realized the significance of a giant hamburger steak for birthday being attributed to a hard-working warrior, something that his brother had cooked for him. That brotherly love is so precious, Absolute legend! |

| Damn...Stark has a really sad backstory. Also, Frieren sure does like to show off her grippers...lol |
