And we have Himmel is him HIM, like literally. If you want context, some spoilers down . . . . . . . . . . . . Himmel is NOT A TRUE CHOSEN HERO(chosen by a god or angel or nothing, just wanted to prove he can become a hero due to Heiter teasing him), and he was not chosen by the holy blade and the holy blade he weilded is an imitation sword for display uses but still used it anyway. Literally defeated the demon king with his party with nothing but a cosplay sword.
A lot of people forget because of Fern's show of badassery here, but she's fighting that way because her left arm is disabled by the surprise attack. So she has to move her staff around with only one hand. She also has to not exert her body or she'll lose blood so she has to move minimally.
Nah Stark tanked that shit because that attack was weak as hell. It barely even penetrated. He was prepared to die but then realized that hey, I’m not gonna die lol. You may be able to imitate, but you are too weak to actually mortally wound me, like my master definitely could. The only thing holding him back is his own head and lack of confidence. You can clearly tell he’s a monster.
tbf for Linnie. She not weak by all mean, her attack is strong enough to destroy walls and the ground. She definitely pack some strenght behind it but the thing is... Stark was built like a freaking TANK. Being beaten up by Eisen everyday does pay of LOL
She technically outclasses him in terms of technique and skill, but all of that skill is meaningless if he goes all-in on a reckless attack. She doesn't have the strength to kill him in turn, so her attack only succeeds in holding her in place for his killing blow.
I love Stark's finisher. They portrayed the speed of his attack very well. There is a frame holding up the axe and a second frame where he has already completed the strike. There is absolutely no animation of the strike itself. Magnificent
I really love what they did here. The director knows that manga is lacking longer fight scenes. Just a couple of panels, But they added a lot of freebies to spice things up. Im really loving this anime adaptation. I feel like I'm being spoiled ☺️☺️
This Anime is God Tier. The score, drawings, animations, story telling and pacing is a 10/10. Every time you think you have understood what the story is all about and how each episode will probably look like in the future, it slightly twists things around in an unexpected way.
Keep in mind! Fern and Stark aren't just anyone. They're disciples of the party of heros who managed to defeat the Demon King. I'd wager their training really is on an entirely different level.
Fern is Heiter's adoptive daughter and Frieren's apprentice, Stark is Eisen's apprentice, and Frieren herself has Himmel's ideals and wisdom. A powerhouse of a team
its no surprise at this point why frieren took her as her apprentice, being a young mage and being quicker on the draw from a mage who helped defeat a demon lord is insane, no wonder frieren has so much in her.
... actually theres another reason, but that has related with next episode on frieren vs aura later. but i will said it is mana control, it has meaning for frieren for ages.
The demons always avoid to fight ennemies stronger than them. They can't really understand why a weaker being would fight them or how they are willing to put their lives on the scale in order to win. Demon don't understand selflessness. At best they consider it human stupidity.
Stark is the forbidden lovechild between a diamond and a rubber ball. He also shows that it isn’t the size that matters, but the strength and technique behind it.
Nah Madhouse cooked to the last details, from Stark putting on his jacket to fren cat walk and her taking off the jacket is crazy. The budget for this anime must be over the moon for them to do this perfect of a job
I love how they did the subtle hint with the eye. We thought Stark had lost it but even with a direct hit she wasn't able to cut his eye. Ofc he would be able to no sell a direct hit from her. Stark is a beast.
I like that when Stark is starting his final attack on Linnie, he's shown as physically much bigger than her. To show how much overwhelmingly powerful he is compared to her. Even before he kills her, you physically see he's way above her.
Notification Squad 💯 I keep seeing you guys react and praise this anime. Well, I guess I know what I'm watching this weekend. You guys don't miss with the recommendations, so I already know it's gonna be a good show.
when the animation is a mixture of studio ghibli and mappa...wow...just wow...also: Fern: same mannerisms as Frieren makes me lol! the confidence and deadpan look while fighting gives me goosebumps... it's like saying: "really?? is that all you've got?" Stark: the fear he gets and the lack of confidence and then realizing that he is more stronger than he thinks... damn! this will surely get a renewed season!
Seen a couple of reacts to this episode. I think y'all the first to realize how ridiculously quick Stark's Lightning Strike is. Truly was light lightning. We see the lightning first, then the sound and everything else follows after a second.
Stark tanked the hit btw because he said it was just imitation. Like what yall said in the discussion so my bad if yall already said it lmao. I'm an anime only like yall so I'm excited
@@middlepykelol U don't know what edgy is Ragna is not just a strong main character stuff It is much more than that Frieren is just boring and slow The fights are so technical and stressful to watch tbh
