warriors don't have detectable mana output like mages do. their approximate level isn't nearly as simple to discern.

Hypocrisy posted:drat it. Revolte's last line cracked me up since I read it as an exasperate parent whose child asked why too many times. It kind of touches on the topic of Demons and Humans fundamentally not understanding each other and their motivations. I think it's gonna be a pretty developed theme by the end of the manga.

I thought demons never hid/suppressed their mana. That was even the entire crux of an earlier arc. Hopefully that turns out to be a significant clue that something different is going on.

I think demons are supposed to be philosophical zombies. https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/zombies/ Creatures with no inner life and essentially automatons.

They don’t limit their mana to hide their true level but they can still fully hide their mana for stealth stuff.

RatHat posted:They don’t limit their mana to hide their true level but they can still fully hide their mana for stealth stuff. Yeah, I think the idea is that they're perfectly capable of obscuring their mana if there's an obvious reason to do so like needing to employ stealth. It's just that going around with their mana suppressed all the time like Frieren does to give the impression of being weaker than she really is, is just utterly foreign to their way of thinking. It's how they determine hierarchy, and the only way they organize into a society. Hence when Frieren reveals it, we see the demon react with something close to moral outrage.

Even for humans/elves it’s really weird and pointless. It’s explicitly for fighting demons because they wouldn’t give a second thought about someone possibly having more mana that they’re showing

If mages are the only ones who can detect mana in the first place, it just seems to be an arbitrary distinction between hiding mana while in combat vs. doing it to avoid detection/combat, especially given their instinct to constantly antagonize and attack. That arc did start out with them attempting something approaching guile, though (in their way), so I guess it makes sense.

for demons, hiding mana is something you do before a fight and not during.

It's a pride thing, and sort of makes sense: their society, insofar as they have one, is a fairly strict hierarchy based on how much juice you've got, so going full blast is procedure.

Frieren is so easy. Also interesting, they only detected one mage watching the bodies eh Also, I got the official release and it's fine, but they translated Soul Track as Zoltraak for some reason

(Also, I couldn't help but think of Galan and Akihiro in Gundam when the conversation started about decent people dying first. Not the only instance of it in anime and manga, but one of the more memorable ones.)

I started this series earlier today and it is now five thirty AM, it's real good and I couldn't put it down. I like most of the characters a whole bunch but I think the mimic joke is my favorite part.
