"Oh no... Fern is sulking" - the episode.

Character interactions were a total joy to watch. It was nice to see Stark (and Himmel!) again and we also got a bit more insight into characters such as Übel, Lawine and Denken's group.

Looking forward to the Second Exam!

I just love how Himmel was always thinking of Frierens future. It really brings tears to my eyes each time.

My favorite part of this episode was seeing the smile on Freiren as she was listening to the girls talk and remembering the words of Himmel.

Sense is sort of 'moved' by Frieren's display of power with the way she destroyed the barrier so she had to step things up a notch.
Still can't wait for the Serie-Frieren reunion.

I love this show to heck. OMG this episode was so cute. Mommy Fern getting mad at Stark and Frieren XD

I really love how they took some time to flash out the characters for this arc and give them abit more personality. This series takes its world building seriously.

All the nostalgia flashbacks for Frieren too. Life is so fleeting.

another boring filler episode, with strange Fern behaviour and moods.. does she have strong period? she acts worse than a child in this episode and she supposed to be 17? totally wasted screen time on Fern, instead they should progress Fern X Stark love story...

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

I'm glad we got an episode like this before the next part of the exam. It's a return to the stuff that makes me love the series. Hoping we get more stuff like this before the season ends.

Love me a good down-time episode, especially if said episode contains some cute Fern moments; which it did.

Stark seeing the others again for the first time after the first test and somehow immediately pissed Fern off doesn't surprise me.

Seeing the test takers interact outside of the test was pretty cool, with Ubel trying to steal Land's clone spell and now trying to learn more about him (to his displeasure,) Denken and his group finding that one resturant that everyone ended up at, and Karne and Lawine being Karne and Lawine.

Looking forward to the next test, which seems like a very tough dungeon raid.

A nice chill episode to take a break before the next exam arc starts.

We got to see Stark again, and it's always nice to see him.

Nothing quite like a chill cool-down episode in between exams. Liked seeing characters interact who didn't during the first exam, like Kanne and Lawine with Fern and Stark.

After how the first mage exams went, it was nice that this episode was very chill and relaxing. Unfortunately for Stark, that means his days of being lazy are over, which made Fern pretty angry at him. XD

Thankfully, going to a nice restaurant and being able to order whatever you want instantly put a big smile back on Fern's face. While I do love how she went for multiple desserts, I hugely respect Frieren's massive plate full of meat. Petite girl, huge appetite!

I did enjoy seeing how the other character involved in the earlier exam were chilling out as well. Ubel being able to copy any ability from someone that she's close enough to does make her more of a threat to whoever goes up against her in the upcoming second exam, but either way, I did enjoy her talk with Land. Same with Kamme and Lawine hanging out with Frieren and Fern after seeing Stark getting dragged off by Wirbel, which had me laughing.

With this, I'm expecting the 2nd exam to begin in the next episode or so. I do look forward to seeing how the remaining participants get on. =)

So this episode is a calm before the storm what that means everyone of the exam participants enjoy their time before the 2nd exam begin & its instructor sense is famous for zero pass outs in her exam. How will frieren pass this exam is the interesting question.

I'm not much into the Slice of Life genre but this episode was pretty good and I enjoyed it, and the girl that learns magic by "feeling" is dangerous, she's a copycat and she will definitely copy the magic of that other dude she's hanging out with, she learns a lot about you just by watching you talk and eat.

And that white-haired guy looking for warriors was pretty funny too.

Fern was mad af this episode. A stark contrast from the cool collected exam taker. She's really putting Stark in his place I mean drinking juice in the middle of the night, for shame. Gotta love how the crew has figured out how to calm her down. By her sweets and snacks and her mood will get better.

Glad we had more Stark in this episode I missed the guy. He's getting bullied by everyone but Frieren this episode. I hope he made friends with that silver haired guy.

As has been the case, even Frieren's cool down episodes are spectacular. And, this episode is no exception. Fern has continued to show just how petty she is. Frieren continues to show through her eyes the cycle of life. Yes, things change, but some other things remain. If it's enough to make Frieren smile in recollection, then it's all good to me.

This episode brought back my favorite thing about the show, the juxtaposition of past and present to touch upon universal and human themes. The whole restaurant chef detour was some of what this show tends to be best at, and the Himmel quote is pretty much the entire concept of this show concisely communicated in one sentence. Add in some amazing and great character moments and interactions, and this episode is all my favorite things about Frieren in 23 minutes.

Great episode. Amazing show.

This arc is so boring or at least too stretched that I've forgotten how much I appreciate the SoL elements in this anime. But I definitely haven't forgotten how people are already willing to declare the characters a couple in love just because of an obviously pure humorous segments. Shippers never change, I guess.

This episode had a lot of little nice moments between pretty much all the characters.

If only being remembered by changing someone's life were so simple. Some people take others for granted.

Sousou no Frieren Episode 22


  • After several episodes of action, we are back to the usual mundanity of their life.
  • We saw how the mages live their lives and interact outside of combat. Like Richter who seems like a kind guy who runs a magical repair shop.
  • Glad that the people in various teams became friendly afterwards. Laufen and Denken having a grandpa and grandchild relationship between them. Denken even bought some snacks for Laufen.
  • Ubel seems like she wants to get the cloning spell of Land. They even have a meal together.
  • This episode showed that Wirbel is really a good guy. Poor Stark being taken out of his will to take down some monsters.
  • The way fern walks after eating and when she was not angry anymore was so cute.
  • Can't wait for the next exam. I deeply regret watching the teaser for it because I saw a monumental spoiler and I badly want to forget about it.

As amusing as it is to see Fern sulk and Frieren and Stark needing to pacify her, dealing with her personality in real life would be a real chore.
