I just realized that when she said she hasn't been forced to use that spell for 80 years... the last time she used it was probably against the Demon King. And Fern withstood it.

2025-06-28 03:59:14 +0000 UTCI just noticed while watching this stream, there was not 1 mimic... but 3, on screen.

2024-11-15 19:20:29 +0000 UTCI love the slow but steady reveals with Übel. She's just entertaining to watch! Whether it's the constant confirmation that your first impression of her as a Psychotic killer was correct. Or just her hanging around the Glasses Dude, while *OOOZING* "I wanna ride that dick" energy! ^^' I also like seeing Wirbel constantly having to reveal that his Psycho War Veteran persona is just an act, because he keeps choosing to help his friends by carrying them :P

2024-03-13 04:33:32 +0000 UTCThis Methode slander will not stand! Do you *see* the damage to the room around her, she fought her intensely and was beat up for it sure but standing *right next* to where the Fern clone was burning would imply she got in close proximity which we saw is what she needed to do to hold Fern with her spell, p sure Methode won that. /j
The Force
2024-03-12 22:14:57 +0000 UTCThe easiest way to think about it for me with Ubel is that she goes against everything mages know when it comes to 'orthodox' magic. Like in her convo with Land and how she can use magic by 'feel' and not understanding the principles. Her brain is wired entirely different and that's why she's able to do these things. A mage that was raised on principles and magic laws couldn't suddenly switch their ways of thinking on a whim to do things how she does. That's at least the way I'm interpreting it!

2024-03-11 06:15:55 +0000 UTCThe way that I saw someone explain it, and that I like as an explanation, is that Burg saw not his cloak as blocking all magic, but rather the enchantments. And Ubel saw her spell as not cutting the enchantments, but the cloak itself. So she ended up sort of accidently slipping into a loophole of his magic, that perfectly let her exploit her own. Also, Frieren has pointed show that claiming something to do with magic to be impossible really is just arrogance. As the first test proctor claimed that Serie's barrier was impossible to break, because Serie made it. And then Frieren popped it like a bubble, and Serie herself wasn't really surprised, just mildly annoyed at Frieren's antics.

2024-03-11 03:53:46 +0000 UTCHonestly, I don't believe it's a curse. Primarily cause they are noted to specifically be something that demons and monsters can do, sure, but also cause Fern simply just wouldn't be as impressed as she was, in my mind. Fern knows that Frieren can turn a demon's magic into her own. That's how flight and basic attack magic were made after all. So she likely wouldn't be too surprised if Frieren really did use a curse. But rather, it seems like she know, on instinct alone, that what Frieren is using, technically, should still be considered and attack magic spell. So it's more the fact that she KNOWS that she is being attacked by magic, but she literally can not perceive that fact is what it shocking to her. And I mean, Fern is the one to claim that it's the height of magic, so I wouldn't really say it's a stretch to assume that she can still somewhat tell that it is magic.

2024-03-11 03:45:30 +0000 UTCFern gets underestimated 100% of the time. It's kinda her thing. Also its called a reacted and not an analysis.
Cat on Crack
2024-03-11 01:52:28 +0000 UTCYeah nah, Detecting ≠ Reacting. Even if it takes a second for a mage to know what to do about an attack, they still detect the mana regardless of how old/new it is. Fern was able to detect that giant barrier tree Flamme planted 1000+ years ago, so I don't think it has to do with age, just origin
Justin Payne
2024-03-11 01:02:45 +0000 UTCSo no one else is going to talk about the fact that Frieren used a move on fern that she need for the demon king.
Zack Filipy
2024-03-11 00:50:58 +0000 UTCThat’s interesting I interpreted that moment that she used a spell so old and unique that Fern couldn’t understand it. Since last episode Frieren said there’s a slight lag for elves to defend against it due to it being a newer spell for her.
Andres Lozano
2024-03-11 00:18:06 +0000 UTCI don't like when magic is explained like this, with so much focus on what the mage believes is possible. When she expects her spell to be able to cut his cloak and he expects his immovable cloak to be able to block her spell, it just comes down to who is more certain? This kind of thing so often devolves into arrogance and ignorance being a mages strongest tools, I'm not a fan. Being annoyed by that couldn't stop me from absolutely loving this episode though. This show is incredible.
Zac Childs
2024-03-10 20:21:56 +0000 UTCSo crazy thing here: during the part where Sein was in the party, it was established that Curses are demon/monster magics that current mages don't understand and they can't detect as magic What Frieren's clone just did to Fern, she couldn't detect as magic. This implies that Frieren knows Curses
Justin Payne
2024-03-10 19:12:45 +0000 UTCMaybe I’m attracted to crazy in both genders is extremely based. And also I feel that…

2024-03-10 14:21:47 +0000 UTCI think the Replica Frieren fight would have been way easier if Fern just lobbed a Mimic chest into the room

2024-03-10 13:38:45 +0000 UTCas soon as the Burg test was shown my immediate idea was ''oh just push him slightly with ur hand'' lmao

2024-03-10 09:07:19 +0000 UTCI mean, they don't seem to be able to actually harm her despite the big teeth, so it's not a big problem. Her problems with them are claustrophobia and having to deal with messing up her hair if she's alone.
Gore17
2024-03-10 04:00:02 +0000 UTCGoing with that theory, I think the reason Fern couldn't kill the dragon was because of her low self-esteem and insecurities. It could have worked if she was confident enough and foolish enough to believe it would work.

Erik Nilsson
2024-03-10 02:04:23 +0000 UTCi don't really understand what you're talking about? nobody expect anyone to break any physics. the expected outcome was most likely one of three things: 1.) they didn't expect anyone to succeed to begin with. we know that up until now everyone who took sense's test failed. so success is in no way guaranteed and it may have just been a way to get everyone expelled 2.) use excessive force to force burg to move, similar as to what richter and kanne used during their fight. no breaking of physics required, just a proper display of strength to move a lot of mass at once 3.) be creative. the assignment was to force burg to move, so a clever participants could have tried to mess with the ground burg was standing on to force him to move, instead of attacking him and trying to push him away no one was expecting anyone to break any laws of physics, nor was there meant to be any danger to anyone's wellbeing. you might have misunderstood the assignment?

2024-03-10 01:30:16 +0000 UTCThat shot of Frieren is like Makima tier. Just absolute dommy mommy. My favorite part of Frieren being eaten by the mimic though is you can see 2 dead mimics right next to them and Frieren STILL went for it. That bean has a single brain cell and it refuses to acknowledge mimics and I love her for it.

Aziouss
2024-03-10 00:44:45 +0000 UTCThe true psychotic bitch here is burg. I mean mages are the scholars of this world. You would think how can he be that stupid? He was asking the contestant to break the laws of physics and not the human body? I mean what is more likely to happen BURG!!! This reminds me of the demon core story. Where a bunch of USA scientist did the stupidest shit you can image and got themselves killed with radiation poisoning... AND IT HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES!
Aziouss
2024-03-10 00:43:19 +0000 UTCyeah, i feel that despite everything you're still somewhat underestimating a lot of characters. like the way you're completely talking down to and ridiculing methode for example. as much as I like fern, we know way to little about what she's actually capable of to actually say for certain if fern is stronger than her. and even if she is, we've already established that a more powerful mage can easily be taken out by a weaker one, and methode already confirmed beforehand that her magic works on fern. in addition, if we assume that all events unfolded in real time, roughly 5 minutes passed between the fern replica ambushing her and the replica disappearing after the death of the spiegel, which means methode at least fought on the same level as, or maybe even surparssed the abilities of, the fern replica for several minutes. but yeah, i guess just ignore all that and just chalk it up to being lucky.

2024-03-10 00:33:51 +0000 UTCIt could also be taken as "you surprise me every time", like a pupil exceeding the master's expectations.

2024-03-09 23:22:28 +0000 UTCWasn´t it the guy who went off on his own, and then appeared to spend most of test hiding and having a nervous breakdown?
Ebofa
2024-03-09 23:14:07 +0000 UTCI 100% believe that the reason Frieren underestimate Fern is because Fern is still, on some level, a small adorable 8 year old to her. One could call it mom goggles.
Ebofa
2024-03-09 23:00:02 +0000 UTCI wonder if the clone got stuck in one before when she sealed the door. They said she can get out of the mimic it just involves her blowing it up

2024-03-09 22:59:49 +0000 UTCIt's the dude who went solo when they all went in at the start of the test.

2024-03-09 22:55:10 +0000 UTCI have a theory that the reason Frieren made Fern shoot the dragon way back in, I think episode 5, was because of how magic works on visualization. She might have believed there was a slight chance that Fern, who was a rookie mage, wouldn´t know that she shouldn´t be able to hurt the dragon. Which might make her able to actually hurt the dragon. So Frieren decided that it was worth testing quickly, as it would spare them from trying to find another way to take it on. Sadly, I think Fern has too much common sense for that sort of thing. It reminds me a bit of something I have heard from both chess players and fencers. That the people many masters find to be the most dangerous/difficult as opponents are those at a certain stage between complete amateur and somewhat trained. Where they know just enough to avoid getting completely wiped out instantly, but not enough to fit into the expected parameters. Their skill level basically makes them unpredictable because they don´t know what they are doing and are just making it up as they go. But I think the concept of magic being linked to what you can visualize is incredibly interesting. Because it puts a bunch of things in context. Such as how several mages talk about not being able to imagine winning against a water mage in the rain. And the moment you can´t visualize victory is the moment you lose. In the same way, it changes Denken declaring that he is going to make quick work of Frieren from foolhardy bravado, to an actual tactic. He needs to believe that he is able to defeat her, because if he doubts himself, then he loses what little chance he has of victory.

2024-03-09 22:38:18 +0000 UTCHmm... technically yes, if you do a one to one translation. But if you google it, then is Kastelburg (translated) a castle ruin located in Germany.
Chamoun101
2024-03-09 22:27:05 +0000 UTCWait, so Castleburg means CastleCastle?
Ramizis
2024-03-09 22:15:56 +0000 UTC- You can tell from the last episodes that the animators had fun playing around with first-person POV shots :D. - 80 years ago is when Frieren fought the demon king. So her telling that, it's very high praise for Fern. - The reflection of baby Ubel with psycho eyes in the scissors was a cool shot. - I take from what Sense said that the reason her hair is so messy is because due to all the defensive spells imbued into it, she literally cannot cut it. - I think Methode wasn't overestimating herself when she claimed she could deal with Fern. You can actually see the signs of a fierce battle in the last shot when the clones disappear. - Wirbel carrying his two buddies on the back again in the last scene :D. - And of course, Frieren going through SEVERAL mimics in the treasure room, not just one.

2024-03-09 20:39:11 +0000 UTCNo, the one from the previous episode simply blocked in time the attack from the end of the previous episode.
Sancturillore -- Élie Simard-Wallot
2024-03-09 20:21:08 +0000 UTCI take it that Frieren clone in previous episode was room before this one, or that there were two Frierens guarding door on same room, but other one just watched, or Spiegel created second Frieren soon after first one was defeated.
