imo frieren would work much better if after the intro arc the pov character was fern and then you could just show frieren staring off into space sometimes and only get snippets of what shes reminiscing on at this point himmel has more screentime than 90% of the cast, its kind of hard to evoke that sense of nostalgia and melancholy when he wont go away. and it undermines frierens character when shes pining over the past like a human would even though the whole point is her age has distorted her view of memories and the passage of time.

The variety of the arcs helps the show overall for me. It's not like the battle stuff is even just battles, you've got characters with conflicting philosophies on magic that are explored and stuff like the dungeon tableau that are just nice character/world moments. yeah i'd say if anything that compared to an actual shonen anime the concentration, and more importantly the length, of battles in the frieren 'battle' arcs is really pretty low im here for it either way, i personally have no problem with either thing frieren is. But I also watch shonen and imo frieren's battles have absolutely nothing on how one note and interminable that poo poo can get

Fern is much more interesting

i think in general i agree frieren relies on the crutch of himmel flashbacks too much, but as someone who was kind of eh on the demon arc i'm enjoying the exam arc. it introduces a lot of neat characters in the mages, fleshes them out fairly effectively and quickly, and gives them a ton of opportunities to interact - all of which play to frieren's strengths as a show. stuff like dedicating an episode to the time between the two tests, or when they do the dungeon how they kind of loiter around at the beginning and psyche themselves up to go in, or come together to figure out how to take out the frieren clone are cool character moments. it was sick when the dwarf mage was like "yeah, sometimes you just gotta throw hands" i think my only complaint was that the bird test was definitely a bit slow, but this arc does pretty well outside of that, i think.

yeah i think youd need at least two cours to cover the rest of the story, one more cour would not be enough at all even with insane rushing

these nobles are so stupid in Doctor Elise this week omg, the theater is on fire! Screw you lady, I'm not listening to you, we're gonna stay here in this burning building and refuse to lay low and just breathe all this nice smoke. Where are my servants! Also the actors in the play much suck to make such a mistake like this during the fight scene and knocking that candle over. main character bad luck at full drive this episode

Meme Emulator posted:I really thought you meant Eden’s Zero with this Eden’s Zero already has an anime that’s at least two seasons in at this point (the manga looks like it’ll be wrapping up before long though given recent events) Also that’s not a sequel to Fairy Tail, just a case of Mashima copying designs (and in some cases entire characters) from one manga to the next just like he did when going from Rave Master to Fairy Tail. Speaking of, I wouldn’t mind a RAVE reboot anime that covers the entire manga either come to think of it Larryb fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Mar 13, 2024 |

Arc Hammer posted:Metallic Rouge this week feels like the wheels came out from underneath it. i dunno, i thought this episode ruled. i like weird robot families talking about their memories while eating immaculately plated stacks of chocolate bars, or other robot families bonding with each other while fighting and coloring, way more than silly sci fi lore dumps.
