Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1x18 Reaction

happy friday and dont worry its a double drop today

Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1x18 Reaction

Comments

Someone probably as already commented but Invincible season 3 just got confirmed for February.

J

The Frieren episodes have been removed. I’m on patreon but now all I see is up to episode 18 and I don’t see Arcane season 2 anymore. Does anyone know what’s happening?

Ken Drummer

Finally the best girl (Ubel) arrives.

Jacob

Can’t believe Lola and Milena were Kanne and Lawine’s historians

My Toasty Toast

I second that. It isn't for the faint of heart by any stretch, but they're up to the challenge.

Alex Springer

Damn. I keep forgetting to watch the Frieren drops because I am living for the Haikyu reactions.

Alex Springer

Happy belated birthday Dylan!! I hope you had a good day and wish you more in the future 😊

Aris

White people in medieval Europe speaking Japanese… Lola: so much more natural! I know what she meant, I just thought it was funny

Benjamin Harris

I would recommend you watch 19 and 20 together next week. They go along really well.

Sergeant Jay

Also Made in Abyss is peak anime, I shall keep praying it gets reacted to

Billy Overlord

Im so glad you also connected the Hunter Exam to the Mage Exam, and Ubel to Hisoka. I felt the exact same way.

Billy Overlord

I absolutely love when it's all in a good funny moment like this was, but on a real note, it is also sad that there are a small minority of fans out there who actually do feel nothing but pure hate and ire towards any kind of little differences. It is completely fine to be put off of or dislike things, but to hate something so silly and trivial about the very thing you also profess to love and adore... I'll just never understand those sort of people.

Jacob Collier

22 and 26 are probably the only exceptions to this but, wow, you are totally right. I never thought of that before.

Jacob Collier

They are not fighting with each other, they are flirting.

JAMES D'ALESSANDRO

Sailor Moon, No. 6, My Next Life as a Villainess, Stars Align, Girls band Cry…the list goes on and on

cosmotron

Oh no I love the dub voices 😭😭 I’ve always been someone who likes both sub and dub

cosmotron

amo cuando encuentro a alguien mas con mis mismos gustos por el idioma original de los animes jaja. I love Japanese

David Brown

Okay where is Dylan though? He’s missing his birthday

My Toasty Toast

My dumbass thought the same initially too, and when I realized I felt shame for how greedy I am

My Toasty Toast

I thought they like each other romantically but don't realise it yet. They're pulling each other's pigtails like kindergarten boys and girls in the playground. I don't know if they do like each other that way or if they've just been together so long they ended up fighting like sisters, but either way I love them both. There are a few really interesting characters turning up for mage exams. The thing that worried me about this episode when I first saw it is that we have the conversation about Frieren losing to mages with less mana in the past, then we cut to the psychopathic serial killer whom even Kraft recognised as a dangerous mage; he beat up the bandits to save their lives after finding the bodies of some more bandits "torn-up by magic" in the woods. She's trouble. I hated Fern being in the same party as her. It gave me anxiety.

Caradoc Elmet

I second Bocchi, it's short and it's a feel good funny show so it would be a nice replacement for and feel good anime.

Meganclare7

If an anime isn't specifically focusing on the fact that there are lgbt characters or a lgbt relationship, it almost never happens. Very rarely some side characters give a little representation, and almost always it's just subtext or up for interpretation. Having very minimal representation isn't the same as it not existing, very important distinction. I fully agree with them on never expecting it in anime, because 99% of the time it's nothing

Flashzie

I suggest keeping it. However, it’s important to give the girls context so they can make the final decision on whether to include it in the next short poll and just watch S1 (and watch later S2 or drop the show), or wait until the next long anime poll.

refo44

I will never forget watching their reaction every time they’re like “we’re going to watch three stopping at s1 ep5” “We can only watch two stopping at s2 ep 6” “We can only watch a few stopping at s4 ep 5”

My Toasty Toast

Who’s gonna tell them that every episode from this point on is going to end mid-sentence?

My Toasty Toast

Didn't realize the announcement of the Season 2 release date of Apothecary Diaries got it disqualified from being the next show. That is quite disappointing. That was my #1. Well, I'm back to Cowboy Bebop or Steins;Gate. And since there is some dub discussion going on, I'm going to insist that if Bebop wins, it needs to be the English dub. I would push for that same with Steins;Gate, but I realize I'd probably be alone on that one. I just think J. Michael Tatum's work on the dub is pretty amazing.

James Long

I still did until I read this D:

jacob

@refo44 I asked about this a few weeks ago and people clearly wanted Steins;Gate without Zero. I would also be in favor of watching Steins;Gate with Zero, then I can throw it out of the short anime slot and it has to compete in the Long Anime Slot :D

Robert H.

Wow I love all those anime what a great poll that would be 🤣

Kaycee

But why Steins;Gate without Zero? It's an essential part of the entire story. Does this mean they'll react to Steins;Gate later? It doesn’t make sense. I disagree with those who say Steins;Gate is optional because it’s not. Of course I want them to watch Steins;Gate some day but it's not fair only to watch S1 and then for them drop the anime.

refo44

Only with the people on Discord Pluto, Your Lie in April, A Place Further Than The Universe and Odd Taxi had led the ranking :D

Robert H.

Pluto would be great preparation for monster 😈 I’m going to assume it’s gonna be either cowboy bebop or steins gate that wins though

Kaycee

Anyone else thought double drop meant two episodes of Frieren 😞

David Salazar

This big arc really has a lot of nasty cliffhangers. We reach Attack on Titan level here . I wouldn't be surprised if they watch 10 episodes next week :D

Robert H.

Madoka is on the list. I think the poll contains about 80 anime :D

Robert H.

On my knees still begging for Madoka! One day, brothers, one day.

EirinHelpMe

I hope so too. I would still love a Poll with Banana Fish, Odd Taxi, Pluto, Erased and Psycho Pass. It would be a cool crime/thriller mix for January-March/June before Monster.

Robert H.

Ah yes, the era of Frieren cliffhangers

Teddy S

Might be wishful thinking but I hope odd taxi ends up on the poll. It’ll be a cool change of pace in my opinion.

Kaycee

3:00 in “Himmel is HIM”

My Toasty Toast

For me it was the Naruto Chunin Exams :D

Robert H.

Since we're already pretty much in an “anime recommendation mood”, I would otherwise already post the Short Anime Slot Strawpoll. I actually wanted to do this at the end of November/beginning of December, but you can theoretically do it now. Just tick all the anime you want to see a reaction to. Lola and Milena can then simply use this as inspiration for the poll after Frieren. This time I've really put in practically all the bigger/more popular anime with less than 30 episodes, and I've added the number of episodes and the status (F = Finished, C = Cancelled but nice ending, O = Cancelled but open ending, U = unfinished / more is announced / is likely to get more episodes), even the ones that probably don't quite suit their taste. But I think that the top 20 will still be suitable in the end. And give love to the older/finished anime (F,C,O)! Especially in the Unfinished list, the anime still have a strong recency bias. https://strawpoll.com/Q0Zp76z39gM But as a little warning: This thing has been on Discord for 2 months and there have been small changes every now and then. Uzumaki got kicked out because of the bad adaptation, Apothecary Diaries got kicked out because of the announcement of season 2 for January, which brings the episode count up to 50 and so on. So it's possible that one or two anime will be removed until the beginning of December.

Robert H.

Himmel isn't just a man, he's HIMmel! haha

Russell Gambardella

Generally, the anime episodes followed a strict 1 episode per 2 manga chapters format. So now there's gonna be a few times the episodes feel like they stop abruptly during this arc because they needed to cram in a few more chapters into less episodes.

Spilled Wine

Haha The way this episode ended reminded me of attack on titan episode 2x7 when they cut it in the middle of the battle lol. Those cliffhangers were inhumane.

Sergeant Jay

This reminded me of the hunter exam too 😭

Wallas

Fruits Basket has really good chances to be the anime after Monster, so 2026 could be the year of romance anime :D

Robert H.

Maybe we can ease the channel into with shows like Lycoris Recoil, MagiRevo, or Gundam lol, but yea there's more and more popping up in recent years. Also would not be against watching reactions to full blown romance or shoujo shows once in awhile.

Spilled Wine

Speaking of LGBT anime I definitely need to recommend Girls Band Cry. Please add it to your watchlist girls, after watching so many reactions from you I just know that this is just the perfect show for you

Tsunemori Kiriko

That movie definitely sucks tho

KIMI

Yayyy Frieyuu Friday

Kaycee

Maybe, but I’m just writing/simplifying the context because I know they’re not going to want to watch the second movie anyways

My Toasty Toast

Also feel the need to push Bocchi the Rock. It’s not the poster-girl for LGTB anime but it’s one I want them to react to.

My Toasty Toast

Revolutionary Girl Utena had gay representation and complex discussions on gender identity and heteronormativity all the way back in 1997!

Elle

Yeah, I do recommend checking out the first Violet movie. "the second one which everyone hates" Don't want to get into a whole discussion, just want to say that its more loved than hated. You don't get to #30 on MyAnimeList by being hated.

James Long

While I like both voice tracks, I prefer the English dub. I think the English VA's for Stark and Ubel fit them better. You can also pick up on the names of the characters and places better. I've watched so many people react to this show with the Japanese voice track and they never get some of the name pronunciations correct.

James Long

well, happy birthday dylan 😅 hope you had a great day and enjoyed it, clearly you have a girlfriend who cares ☺️ my grandpa's birthday would be this 31, he's also dead, but tbh i don't know many people who's birthday is in october, june and april are the ones i'm always wishing you someone happy birthday, mine included.

sand_fl

The good Violet Evergarden movie (not the second one which everyone hates, the first one which is consistent with the show and characters) has LGBT undertones if it’s something you wanna watch in your own time

My Toasty Toast

I didn’t even know that but it’s been on my list for when it comes out

My Toasty Toast

Hope you have a better day mate

My Toasty Toast

a condition for passing is all of the teammates being present at the end of the exam so fern will be ok for now

Mr Krabs

NANA has that FMAB humor, just pack it into a slice of life story with two girls in a new town. Super good, unfortunately relatively open ending and the manga is canceled. The author was in hospital for a long time and hasn't continued writing since. But I love it. I laughed so much.

Robert H.

Close enough, welcome back Hisoka.

Lixien

Witch hat atelier manga also has some spectacular LGBTQ representation, the anime is coming out in 2025 I believe

Harfie

Welcome to the Hunter Exam 😅

refo44

Wish you would react to NANA for some peak writing and gay undertones

bondbond53

Anime has no LGBT representation? Banana Fish, Sasaki and Miyano, Bloom Into You, Given, Yuri on Ice, Cherry Magic and a few hundred more are crying in the corner right now. There are so many LGBT anime. But most of them are in the romance genre, which we haven't gotten into on your Reaction Channel yet.

Robert H.

Happy Friaikyuu Friday

Wallas

We all love Friekyu Friday

Jay Craig

Happy Frieren Friday

refo44

the only thing that can fix this shitty day is frieren friday 😭 specially if it's combined with haikyuu. you don't understand, i almost broke my pinky, got a huge spliter in another finger, got into a fight with my boss to the point i almost quit my job, have a migraine and to add insult to injury the rain caught me on my way back home again and i'm freezing 💀 you know... one of those days 🫠

sand_fl

The disgust at the dub at the beginning is so funny. They've become real anime fans now

BigJo H

Frieren Friday gives me such warm fuzzy feelings. Happy Friday everyone!

HenryM

Mr Krabs

Happy Frieren Friday and happy birthday to Dylan!

Omar O
