I like Ben's idea. In the poetry of plots, Frieren is a sestina. Another great and thoughtful reaction, thank you!

2024-01-07 06:26:15 +0000 UTCThey both have full time jobs and if I remember correctly one of them has a family member with current health issues so sometimes they can't keep up with the schedule. They always deliver on the reactions though, even if they are late. Patience is a virtue.

2024-01-03 21:31:53 +0000 UTCWouldn't Frieren have told Himmel all of that info about demons though? In the scene she herself says that the demon should be killed.

2024-01-02 18:20:06 +0000 UTCHindsight is 20/20. He didn't and couldn't have realized that demons are not merely hostile, but fundamentally alien in their way of thinking, incompatible with other life.

2024-01-01 18:15:32 +0000 UTCBut even Himmel himself admits letting the demon live was a mistake... right? Or at least his facial expression clearly demonstrates that. Frieren was 100% correct in wanting to kill the demon.

2024-01-01 16:44:53 +0000 UTCCommon Himmel W's this episode; 1) Some may claim that it was an L to let the demon live, but to quote the Incredible's: "Valuing life is not weakness, and disregarding it is not strength". 2) Building statues everywhere so Frieren never forgets what a chad he was. 3) Rengoku-ing that little girl straight away from the demon like a boss.

2024-01-01 06:54:35 +0000 UTCI didn't want it to end either! I love how the show subverts the expectation of humanizing the demons and enjoyed your discussion about that. Ahhhh I can't wait until you see and learn more, it will no doubt make for some epic reactions and amazing, in depth discussions!!

2023-12-30 02:33:50 +0000 UTCarg why they gotta stop here for the week :D the next episode is great. i really like this version of demons . in most anime demons are basically just elves with horns. and elves tend to just be humans with pointy ears. but in this show demons are truely alien in nature. thier form and words are merely the camouflage of a predator. and you are right about frieren being kinda closer to being a demon then a human in a way. i would say the main difference is that elves can seem to learn to empathize and perhaps thier coldness is more of a artifact of thier long lives. one thing i just realised. notice how the demons are also really attractive too. i dont think thats just luck, its probably part of thier adaptation to entice. everything about them is ment to put you off your guard. whether they are small like children or attractive, its all a means to and end. and you can tell its an evolution because look at the demons from when frieren was young. they were more monster then anything. now they look like humans.

2023-12-30 01:35:04 +0000 UTCYeah, hard part of watching reaction videos is when you have to wait for them to get to a favorite episode or part of the story. At least we'll get 2 great episodes in a row.
