25mins feels like 2 secs. Multiple goosebumps. Animation and fight scene is top top quality.

This episode was RIDICULOUS! Almost got me emotional from that Eisen flashback near the end about not losing the fight if you can still keep getting up. The animation was INSANE this episode plus we got to see Fern actually in action! Might be the best episode so far!

Finally someone said it. I was feeling emotional from that scene as well. I was wondering if I was the only one.

Great episode, it was nice seeing Fern and Stark fighting on their own without the help of Frieren.

Though I still don't understand why Linie didn't finish Stark off...

Likely a mix of two things. First is pride, not acknowledging Stark as an actual threat that needs to be killed immediately, similar to what Lugner did with Fern and how he let her live even after a surprise attack.

Second is fear, as she mentioned she was afraid of being scolded by Lugner if she didn't help him immediately, hence why she went for the finishing move to try and finish it quickly when Stark got back up the last time. She didn't seem as urgent when it was earlier in the episode and she wasn't trying to help Lugner out; as she said, she was quite bored and probably wanted to prolong the fight.

Fern and Stark taught those 2 snooty demons a thing or two.
Next episode is the battle of lolis!

Is it only me or do you also hear a heavy metal riff in the background everytime you see the phrase, 'Frieren the Slayer' ?

The thing about these demons is that, if they weren’t so prideful and arrogant they would easily surpass Frieren and the rest of humanity but because they overlook humans, that becomes their eventual downfall.

That is the best fantasy show of the decade.
The atmosphere has been great since episode 1, but recently they also added more action.

The fight of the side characters was just awesome in style and animation.
Lügner had no chance against Fern, Linie won with points, but Stark had a better aim.
Not so good to block an axe with your kidney's, but he can probably be fixed again.

Aura's ability appears a little uncomfortable when you always have to set up a scale before a fight
and in an bad event the scale might tilt in the opponents favor.

I had high expectations for the fight against the demons and oh boy did they meet them!
The episode was flawless and just leaves me with wanting to see the next one to see Frieren fight Aura!

Liked how Frieren just jumped in front of Aura’s undead army, and started obliterating them, as she might have done all those 80 years ago. Though Aura’s scale of obedience could be tricky, but it doesn’t mean fuck to Frieren, as the army is undead, and morever like she stated herself, as there’s no Himmel this time around, she could take her time and pleasure to out Aura to her place, once and for all.

Frieren isn't obliterating the undead army, though. Aura pointed out dispell uses a lot more mana, and Frieren said she did that now because Himmel scolded her last time. But when Aura points out that Frieren doesn't have to follow Himmel's will since he's not there anymore, and Frieren agrees and says she can destroy her without mercy, I *think* Frieren is speaking Specifically about Aura, not the Controlled. I guess we'll see next week.

She´s a demon. Who cares about some stupid, weak human? What is he gonna do? That´s probably her thoughts. Throughout the whole battle, even though Stark kept getting back up, she never got the sense that he could beat her.
...she was wrong.
Idk bruh, they kill guards like they are nothing even though they don't pose any real threats, yet the one guy that her master specifically told her to "finish him off" she couldn't do it.
@MadanielFL They kill because they don´t care. I also think she kept underestimating him and that´s why she never took him seriously. When she did, it was too late.

Loved this episode! The dialogue writing is fantastic as always and the animations for the duels were incredibly well executed making it easy to follow the fight sequences. The use of scenes that happened in the past to help appreciate and follow the present is noteworthy and of course, Stark's plan to get down on his knees and beg Frieren for help had me in stitches. xD

How can the demons be so stupidly arrogant and smug in the face of people they know are tied to Frieren? isn't she an absolute legend.

I wish the loli would have tasted defeat for a bit longer. She went from total smug arrogance to I'm dead in a second. I would have liked her to really feel the humilliation of defeat by a human for a lot longer.

That honestly might be one of the best animated episodes of this year. Better than Demon Slayer, AoT, Heavenly Delusion, OnK and others. Really reminded me of One Punch Man and the older Madhouse titles.

A party of three, all of them useful in battle, monsters one can say. One cool type one comedy type and one let it go type. A simple plot moving slowly forward with each episode.

A perfect animation culminating with fast and simple yet amazing fighting scenes.

How can I ask for more, it's perfect right until that ending song.
