The buildings look like the ones in AOT because they are German Medieval houses, They have a special name called "Fachwerk" houses. you can find them everywhere in Germany most likely in old cities.

2025-02-24 10:23:54 +0000 UTCI've been subbed to you guys on YT for a while now, but when you announced that you're covering Frieren, I had to sub to the patreon! This was my favorite show of the year with Arcane coming in 2nd! Can't wait to go on this journey with you both. This rewatch is gonna give me so much life.

2024-12-23 04:03:04 +0000 UTCI love how much you reference DND lately Kenny! As someone whos life is now jsut filled with as much dnd as I possibly can, it makes me happy every time haha (Also yall should 1000% watch the Legends of Vox Machina!)

2024-12-09 01:34:20 +0000 UTCThis is a type of anime that I affectionately like to call "comfy anime." It takes its time, keeps the story relatively simple, and focuses heavily on the characters rather than some major bombastic plot. I always feel warm and nostalgic when I watch anime like these, because it makes me think of simpler times when I didn't have to worry about as much. Other anime I adore that invoke similar feelings in me are Spice and Wolf and The Ancient Magus' Bride, which I highly recommend.

2024-12-07 07:28:33 +0000 UTCPeople who say Frieren is "boring" just don't appreciate well written stories, it does have some great action too, just not every episode, this anime is easily in my top 10 animes of all time.
TheMilkMan
2024-12-03 11:31:27 +0000 UTCNot sure if someone has mentioned this yet, but all the names are in German and have a meaning connected to the character
Hanna
2024-11-28 18:30:00 +0000 UTCTo be fair, 50 years to 20 years IS a whole 60% reduction! (This is how I imagine Frieren justifies it)

2024-11-27 19:34:51 +0000 UTCFirst time one of my questions was answered I'm so happy it got some good analysis! Also props to Kenny for pronouncing my name correctly, did you recognize the reference or just good instincts?

2024-11-24 23:46:55 +0000 UTCAgreed. The slllow pace initially made me give up on the too. But when it ratchets up, it doesn’t let go, at all.

2024-11-24 21:07:19 +0000 UTCI will say this is a very slow burn anime, I lowkey didn’t like it at first cuz I didn’t see it going anywhere but once I realized the point of the show I started to appreciate it for what it was
Bryan
2024-11-24 18:51:14 +0000 UTCKenny, you do know Himmel's VA very well. You've heard him almost every week in MHA reactions!
Ej
2024-11-24 13:48:45 +0000 UTCProbably just categorized as "western animation", but still some of the best to come out and has an amazing back story to how it came to be (aka the kickstarter campaign and how it was just supposed to be a 1-2 animation special).
Port34
2024-11-24 02:47:32 +0000 UTCThey really need to do it, especially with its stacked cast of voice actors (RIP Lance Reddick).
Port34
2024-11-24 02:38:55 +0000 UTCReally hoping they give it a shot especially since they seem to like the work of the various voice actors in other shows. Also some scenes they just kill it with the voice work. S2e4 as a great example from liam. If they did a test with the first 2 episodes they would get some great engagement for it I bet.
Port34
2024-11-24 02:35:34 +0000 UTCi used to watch anime first in sub then again in dub, but now i lost the feeling of wanting to rewatch it at some point so now the only time i watch anime dub is when watching you guys start watching the anime that I've already watched
tatakai
2024-11-24 00:59:06 +0000 UTCOh, I’m SO happy to we both of you watch this show that I consider to be a classic of my time watching anime. This show is completely magical in all meanings of the word. I am already looking forward to specific episodes and even plot arcs, and now I’m already in anticipation of seeing it. Enjoy! ((Oh, and speaking of details, watch her setting out on her personal journey, and watch for more details…the keeper behind the shop counter aging. One of many blink and you miss it gems.
Scotsman05
2024-11-23 22:54:09 +0000 UTCI'll be reacting to this watching yalls reactions to this (same as arcane) What a beautiful intro! That said, maybe it's other shows that have influenced my perception on things...but for some reason that priest giving her the ancient grimwoire with potential immortality spells seems suspicious. 🤣 (bc how is it the priest, who was already older than the warrior when they ended their quest, somehow outlives the younger guy by another 20 years? 🤔🤣)

2024-11-23 19:03:54 +0000 UTCThis show is the ultimate tearbender. Also - If you want Dungeons and Dragons, Vox Machina can serve you like no other show can.

2024-11-23 10:33:23 +0000 UTCProbably the best show of last year! Enjoy!

mastertater
2024-11-23 05:47:57 +0000 UTCI love that you both are reacting to this show. Considering all the emotional damage we’ve seen show wise lately this is a nice change of pace 😁 That being said, this has me itching for you both to watch Re:Zero one day
James S
2024-11-23 03:26:03 +0000 UTCMy first time through with the dub will be with you two. She sounds so.... hot? lol
Bob Loblaw
2024-11-23 02:44:36 +0000 UTCyou are hoping for dragons huh? You should do Vox Machina after this one
Mythic.Rob
2024-11-23 01:55:30 +0000 UTCOne of the most emotional animes ive watched so far the story is so beautiful, so happy you guys are watching this now I get to cry a second time

2024-11-23 01:03:23 +0000 UTCI don't know how I am going to survive waiting a week for each new reaction to release. I am so excited for you to experience this series!!
Justin Chapman
2024-11-23 00:32:53 +0000 UTCI seriously can't believe Kenny didn't pick up on it. Sure, he doesn't sound like Bakugo, but he TOTALLY sounds like Connie!
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-23 00:05:54 +0000 UTCYeeeep, i love it & everytime I hear Himmel's voice - if its in sub or dub - I cant believe it haha

2024-11-22 22:36:12 +0000 UTC“I know his voice somehow” Yes, yes you do, Kenny! 🤣 I actually laughed out loud when he said that.
Kiribukai
2024-11-22 22:34:58 +0000 UTCI must have missed that. Thanks for letting me know 🙂
smilingsophia
2024-11-22 21:34:58 +0000 UTCOh btw, you KNOW the voice of Himmel. You're just not used to hear it this.. soft :P

2024-11-22 20:21:56 +0000 UTCI actually asked a Patreon question on this topic for next episode, and I hope they pick it. 🤞😖🤞
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 20:19:52 +0000 UTCSeriously, Kenny NEEDS to add a "Fern Pout" Counter 🤣
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 20:19:04 +0000 UTCWell I was trying to say that all 4 of them dropped at one time when the anime started because they were all meant to be watched together. It doesn't hurt you to separate them but that was my main point. I am glad you are doing it so it hurts to see once a week but I understand why you decided to. I am not trying to act spoiled and asking to drop all 4 at once but it probably would have been a better time if you had at least watched all first 4 episodes in one sitting since they all dropped together when it started and they are meant to be the "prologue" of the series.
L.C.
2024-11-22 20:12:34 +0000 UTCJust a little info, most names are German words and from the ones you already know, Frieren is 'to freeze', Eisen is 'iron', Himmel is 'sky' or 'heaven', Heiter is something like 'cheerful' or 'serene' and Fern is 'far' or 'long distance'. When watching it as a German, it's funny because you know what they mean and all the names gives you a hint about something of the chatacter
IC3P3
2024-11-22 20:11:18 +0000 UTCSulking Fern is the funniest
Robin B
2024-11-22 19:44:20 +0000 UTCSO excited to see you react to Frieren !! Indeed the first episodes are a bit slow but you'll definitely love this anime! Aaaah and I missed that opening!
Robin B
2024-11-22 19:40:51 +0000 UTCThe dub is GOOD the SUB is GREAT but honestly I'm having a slightly harder time understanding what they are saying lol good thing I have nearly ever single scene memorized

2024-11-22 17:44:06 +0000 UTCThis was a great choice to watch after jjk! The absolute joy I got watching this for the first time felt like such a breath of fresh air. Also, stating this now, Fern is, and will always be my favourite Frieren character
Danny C
2024-11-22 17:19:21 +0000 UTCAgree to disagree especially with the differences between sub and dub the sub is way funnier and the word play is so much better
SleppyPanda
2024-11-22 17:17:39 +0000 UTCThis is my comfort show

cyrus gudino
2024-11-22 17:12:24 +0000 UTCI love Heiter tricking Frieren into taking Fern as an apprentice by using her perception of time against her.
Ferret
2024-11-22 17:09:25 +0000 UTCoh btw all character names are actually German words, for example, Frieren means freezing and Himmel means heaven. The location's names are also just German words. As a German guy, the show was pretty funny to watch knowing what all those words mean

2024-11-22 16:58:59 +0000 UTCALL THIS SHOW DOES IS MAKE ME CRY
Eileen Hinman
2024-11-22 16:54:25 +0000 UTCI started watching since I knew you guys would reacting and I cried so much when they watched the meteor shower again I wasn’t sure I could continue. Now I’m halfway through, have cried many more times, and it’s so good! Also, PLEASE do Vox Machina at some point!
Addy
2024-11-22 16:54:23 +0000 UTCYep! We know
Letts React
2024-11-22 16:47:50 +0000 UTCWe havnt watched the other 3 ep yet, would appreciate a little grace and not expecting 4 episodes in 1 day, something we have never done :)
Letts React
2024-11-22 16:47:10 +0000 UTCWhat animation page were you referencing? Love a good source of info 👌
yani
2024-11-22 16:45:45 +0000 UTChaving watched both, I vastly prefer the dub. The sub is of course good, but I feel the dub voices capture the characters much better. Also having watched them both recently, I struggle to remember anything that was conveyed in the sub and not in the dub. If anything, the few lines where there is a difference I think the dub gets the point across better. They also watch the dub for every show anyhow due to auditory processing issues.
Michael Johnson
2024-11-22 16:31:21 +0000 UTCI like that it's a universal thing to get instantly attached to himmel and then he dies like 5 minutes later
Butthead faxe
2024-11-22 16:14:07 +0000 UTCAlso one last thing! Please look at and take note of the ending lyrics just like you did with the opening lyrics. If it doesn't have the lyrics on the episode please find the ending elsewhere and react to the ending with the lyrics. It is important to know since the ending later in the series that changes has a lot of meaning to it when compared to this first ending. Just trust me when I say the ending for the 1st half and the ending for the 2nd half are matched together and are really impactful as you go through the season! This is something that I wouldn't normally ask but the ending lyrics really go well with the series and need to be looked at please!
L.C.
2024-11-22 16:12:12 +0000 UTCBro responsible for 20 of the 40 comments😫😫🙏🏿😭 love the enthusiasm tho
Gdawg88
2024-11-22 16:10:50 +0000 UTCThis is one of those were the English dub is fine but nothing compared to the sub. Also I prefer the sub translation way more
SleppyPanda
2024-11-22 16:07:32 +0000 UTCPeople who always watch shonen jump anime always come at this in a way where they think about the typical style and tropes shonen anime does things. This isn't a shonen anime. Its a deep philosophical fantasy anime I guess is the best way to put it. So its best not to come at it assuming it will be the usual style of your classic shonen jump action type of anime if you get what I am trying to say. Kind of hard to explain but it definitely has action in it just don't try to think of it as your usual action shonen series.
L.C.
2024-11-22 16:06:53 +0000 UTCThis is a lot like D&D but my advice is that you need to look at this series in a deep and meaningful way. It has a lot of good life lessons and deep meaning behind almost everything it does. I have cried quite a few times throughout this series including the manga which has a whole entire seasons worth more of content. Its a very impactful and meaningful journey.
L.C.
2024-11-22 16:03:38 +0000 UTCCan't wait for eps 5,6, 9-11, 14, 15, 17, 21, 22, and many more. This show doesn't have a single weak episode, honestly.
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 15:58:32 +0000 UTCI am used to english dubs not being able to pronounce german names / words correctly, but this will be especially jarring for me :b
Keyblade
2024-11-22 15:55:03 +0000 UTCWatching all four episodes at once is clearly a non-option.

2024-11-22 15:49:08 +0000 UTCit's amazing how so many people cried for Himmel despite only knowing him for one episode. hits hard every time

Katsuki BakuGOAT
2024-11-22 15:42:05 +0000 UTCOh yeah I guess it is the dub voice as well. Its nice how they matched it up with the same voice actors for the dub characters lol. His is good too but the sub feels more elegant in the voice for Himmel.
L.C.
2024-11-22 15:37:05 +0000 UTCThe name's Himmel. Remember it . . .

2024-11-22 15:32:35 +0000 UTCOkay, Kenny recognized Heiter as Beerus, but NOT Himmel as Bakugo, a character from a show he and Montana are actively watching? 🤨
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 15:32:11 +0000 UTCI’m pretty sure that the one with the blue hair is voiced by Clifford Chapin (aka Katsuki Bakugo)

2024-11-22 15:31:17 +0000 UTCHeiter and Eisen defending Frieren at Himmel's funeral is such an underrated moment. 😅
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 15:30:39 +0000 UTCThe actual GOAT is the original sub voice actor for Bakugo and Himmel.
L.C.
2024-11-22 15:28:39 +0000 UTCHimmel is bakugos voice in the original. Is it the same one in the dub?
L.C.
2024-11-22 15:27:50 +0000 UTCThe dwarf Eisen has the same VA as the police chief Todoroki hate-crimed.
H-Bomb 24
2024-11-22 15:27:31 +0000 UTCI wish all 4 could get dropped at once cause it was supposed to be all 4 together for the prologue. All of them dropped at once and were supposed to be watched all at once. I get that you want to extend the episodes out though. Only having one a week sucks ass

2024-11-22 15:14:20 +0000 UTCProbably too late to come after Cyberpunk, but you should consider Black Lagoon as a replacement option. It's basically a present day version of that show's formula.
