I'm IN LOVE!! 💜 | Frieren Beyond Journey's End | 1x15 REACTION "Smells Like Trouble"

[@FlexiejayAnime]

How is every episode so perfect 😭😭😭 I LOVE THIS SHOW! Between the budding relationship between Fern & Stark, and the relationship with Frieren & Himmel that never was, my heart is exploding with feelings 😭

[@rangerscoach]

in its 28 episode run i cant think of another show that has as many perfect 10 episodes. and its ability to get in and out of the source material is next level

[@nightworg]

Yeah I ship Fern and stark. They are so cute. It was obvious to me that Fern loved the dance. 😀😊. It feels so good to see an reactor who like the series as much as myself. Keep up the great work FlexieJay. 🙃😘

[@ObiwanNekody]

Yeah, it's pretty unbelievable how well done this anime is, and it's on all fronts. Action, romance, life lessons, music, plot, character development, pacing...

[@ObiwanNekody]

​@@nightworgFern enjoyed the dance so much she didn't spend all the time eating sweets, like Frieren. We all know how much she loves her sweets...

Oh, also, the animation studio apparently hired professional dancers to act out the dance scene and based their animation on that.

Seeing as the lord is from same region as Eisen, he probably knows that saying and that's why he doesn't demean his son.

[@LadyDoomsinger]

I think Fern saying "It doesn't suit you," is the kindest thing she's ever said to Stark. She's basically saying she prefers Stark as he is, not pretending to be someone else.

[@nullakjg767]

idk about that. theyre constantly dumping on him when hes "just himself" lol.

[@nerulon089]

Yeah, I 100% agree. She basically said she likes him just the way he is.

[@Doodle1678]

@@nullakjg767you know she really likes him though

[@bernieburton6520]

​@@nullakjg767fern likes stark a lot. She's just very reserved and conservative. She's an orphan raised by a priest and Frieren in the woods. She's very lacking in social education with people her own age and doesn't really know how to deal with her feelings for him. Stark has imposter syndrome and a massive lack of self confidence. So they are both orphans living in the shadows of both the heroes who raised them and severely lacking in understanding of how to react to each other with their different personalities. But it's made very clear they like each other quite a lot.

[@tiredidealist]

I don't think that's the point, tbh. Stark doesn't really pretend to be anyone else in this episode, he just dresses differently. His character doesn't change the play the role of the son at all. He just never seemed like the trappings of nobility would fit him well, but once Fern sees him in motion her expression changes. There's a moment when they're dancing that she looks up at him in surprise. That's because in the dance his inner nobility is brought forth and made outwardly visible. It *does* suit him. There's nothing fake about it.

[@PandaStyle07]

I just love the Stark and Fern relationship because it doesn't feel rushed or pushed at all, they are just taking their time and dealing with their issues and misunderstandings

[@AvereeChaloupka]

A story framed like this that allows for so many time skips really helps sell it too. Stark and Fern have come a long way in a short on-screen time, but being able to slyly add that Stark's been traveling with them for a year means we get to fill in a lot of gaps about their growing relationship as well.

[@LordZeebee]

Yeah like we obviously don't get to see all of it in the small snippits of their time that we get but as stated in the episode, it has been a whole year. And they're both late teens/early 20's. It's obvious that at least *something* will blossom lol

[@renixmar3373]

The story on the manga is getting sloowed tho

[@folcwinep.pywackett8517]

The dance showed some fine understanding of ancient European etiquette. The suitor drops to one knee and offers his open right palm to the Lady, asking for a dance. If the lady accepts, she places only the tips of her left hand fingers into the palm of his hand. How did Madhouse know any of that? The dance is only two little frames in the Manga, but here it is glorious with music and animation. Fern starts hesitant, but when Stark makes his initial bold dance move, she is surprised, and impressed. And then she begins to enjoy this dance. It is clear here that Fern is in love with Stark. Also Stark is a super warrior at the peak of athletic skills. With just a small amount of training, he easily becomes a masterful dancer.

[@Raidanzoup]

That attention to detail rocks. I wonder how much of that was the setting designers doing research on etiquette and how much of it was the dancer-choreographers they invited for the scene. I mean, one of the main designers(?) on the show posted photos on twitter of her doing calligraphy with fountain pens and staining paper with coffee to make it look aged, all for the various maps and stuff we've seen in the episodes.

[@folcwinep.pywackett8517]

@@Raidanzoup Good catch! I didn't even think of that..Yes, the choreographers could very well be informed about all those little arcane rules. I know that classical ballet still carries a lot of those little signs and etiquettes. Thanks!

[@DarwinAwardWinner]

Intro Flexie: "I love Fern and Stark" E15: "Say no more" Anyway, the individuality of experiences is actually a big theme in this show. In this episode, we have the contrast between Stark's relationship with his father and Mut's relationship with Lord Orden. And last episode, we have the fight between Stark and Fern, which started out looking like a stereotypical "guy forgot to get his girl a brithday present" lover's quarrel, but in the end the real issue turned out to be something completely different: Stark wanted to go shopping with Fern on her birthday like she did for him, but he was nervous to ask her to do it.

[@Kevinofrepublic]

I love everything about Sein. He's also a great foil for Frieren. It's nice to have someone older than a couple of teenagers for her to hang out with.

[@alextrill1746]

And for someone somewhat adult to manage these three youngsters (one youngster is millenia old, but still)

[@knowingjake]

I can't get over how well written these characters are either. And it's not just the main cast, it's every supporting character as well. In anime it feels like most characters fit a mold of characteristics meant to represent an image, "He's the warrior. She's the mage. He's the thief. He's strong, she's smart, he's sneaky." but the complexity that these characters have in comparison is so rich. Flaws, quirks, depths, unknown territories, unexpected reactions that at the time feel off but eventually feel perfectly genuine... etc.

[@dawnfallon6812]

One of the many reasons I enjoy this series. The writing is next level. Even what should normally be a "filler" episode, we have important events and character development. Every moment is important.

[@nachot6592]

The tiny eye movements Fern makes when she's looking at Stark before they start dancing is some of the most subtle details I've ever seen put into a non-movie animation.

[@bugra-yildirim]

The dancing animation in this episode is beyond great. They must be shippers too to make it really feel special.

[@folcwinep.pywackett8517]

Well the dance is in the Manga also, but only two little frames. With music and animation, the dance comes to life, and Madhouse can make something truly special which also shows Fern's emotions during the dance. She is startled and impressed with Stark's bold move at the beginning, but relaxes into enjoying the dance with him. The dance shows that Fern is in love with Stark.

[@bugra-yildirim]

@@folcwinep.pywackett8517 I know. Thats what ı am talking about when ı said "they" . The animators. They couldve make it a short and blant. But they went full on for he dance. It looks better than everything in the show.

[@SpoopsAHoy]

I remember seeing clips on Twitter from the particular artist that handled the dance scene. It was all hand drawn animation. Absolutely gorgeous.

[@tiredidealist]

Best episode tbh. There's a load to unpack really. The way Stark is able to play the role of a nobleman so convincingly goes to show that he's a lot more than just a warrior. And the way Fern looks at him at around 18:46 in this video seems like she realizes how much it really does suit him. He's a proper hero, and Fern gets to see that more than anyone else, like on his birthday when she followed the trail of people he helped. Notice how at the end she goes over to the window to see what Stark was looking at? She clearly cares about him a lot. Which is great, because the relationships are what really makes this show. Even the brief ones with side characters we leave behind. In this episode Stark did so much more than help keep the morale of the fort up, he helped that father heal. As awesome as his fight with the dragon was, it's stuff like this that makes him a hero.

[@Tolp_Is_Gone]

The fan service of this show is giving us a Fern and Stark dance scene. We are here for it

[@jujoduhduh]

wow it just hit me at the end, when stark looks over to say "At the very least, he wont have to worry about his heir" and the next frieren frame looking over them 3. Its like implying that the future generation has nothing to worry about if there were people like these 3. Cant really phrase it but its like Frieren is at ease knowing the future is bright even himmel the hero is gone.

[@mouses_HK]

when stark told him to tell mut about praising him, it really hit me and I haven't seen many people react the same but I teared up really bad when he said that lol. It's the words he's always wanted to hear, seeing another kid that might have to go what he went through worried him and scared him too and seeing that he'll be fine with a proper father figure, I couldn't imagine how much comfort he felt knowing that Mut is in good hands. Stark is constantly worried he won't be enough, that he'll mess up or that he'll let everyone down, he's always scared about it. So seeing him find some peace knowing Mut will be okay really really got me. It got me so good wow lol and the whole thing with the father parting ways with his son and just everything about him and stark was so emotional. I agree with you with that underlining tone of sadness with Stark with this episode, I dont know if Im crazy but I've been feeling that tone since we were introduced to him, like just in general. I just knew "this guy is cool, bet he'd make me cry" and yeah, he has, A lot. I'm not sure what'll happen after season 1 since I refuse to read the manga while I wait for season 2 but I really want to know where Stark will be.

[@pierluigidipietro8097]

Don't worry, Stark will be amazing in the future

[@crabsyoureit]

At 16:54 when he tells him "This isn't your village" it's because he knows what happened there. He knows where Stark is from and heard about his village being destroyed years ago, and can see how nervous he is holding a sword like he was taught as a child, instead of the axe he wields now.

[@Odysee89]

as i understand it, the mana mages use protects them slightly cause mages use their mana outwards, while warriors use their mana inwards to improve their speed and strengh and such... so its like a protective layer around a mage while priests and their holy magic resists the curse :D

[@FlexiejayAnime]

Love this! Thank you 😍

[@Greymist73]

Exactly, and I think the power of belief is what separates a hero from a warrior in Frierens world. Himmel and his statues seemed egotistical, yet at the same time he was humble enough to help anyone he came across. His ego was basically his superpower….it’s kind of strange but after a fashion he reminds me of Ace Rimmer from Red Dwarf.

[@Odysee89]

@@Greymist73 yeah, i like to think of hero as a class like mage and priest, since they also mentioned rogues and monks... so to me it is Hero=Paladin, Priest=Cleric, Warrior=Barbarian/Fighter, Monk=Fighter/Cleric, Rogues...duh... 😂, and i think for Mages it can be also split into close/mid/long range types, as well as mixing in some Fighter stuff here in there :D and i think Demon Mages seperate themselves as Warlocks :D

[@Amuro1X]

15:28 I feel like every reaction I watch of this episode always cuts out the part where Fern looks at her hand after Stark held it in the hall way. She definitely liked it, but she's doing her typical teenager thing of hiding her feelings. Which is why I love how during the soiree, we get a repeat of that scene, except this time she has a smile on her face when she repeats her "It doesn't suit you line" and you can see how during the dance she goes from looking down and being worried, to only looking at Stark. It's so perfect. Also, poor Sein. I think he was making a bit of a move on Frieren at the dance, but she OF COURSE missed the...sign.

Frieren's victory line in the chaos flower fight was perfect: "Got it." Then Sein got to see and interact with his older woman. And then there was The Dance. As I understand it there wasn't even a handful of panels showing the dance in the manga, but the studio took those panels and fabricated pure genius in this episode.

2:20 Fern and Stark are also weirdly unique together in that they're both orphans raised by heroes going on an adventure with another hero acquaintance. It's not like they're the daughter of a farmer and the son of a smithy, what does romance even look like in this situation lmao 7:55 I've always just gone with the explanation that since Stark's not training his mana like a mage would, his body isn't constantly just overflowing with any more mana than any normal human or animal. He doesn't have that aura around him. On the other hand, I always like to assume that in worlds that have magic, warriors always get bonkers strong because the magic faces inwards or is in the air they breathe and the food they eat lol 19:12 Frieren is SO GIDDY about eating that cake, I'm happy for her

What I love about this episode for the first half, is that it feels very D&D-esque in terms of encounters. Like, "Oh, a Priest joined your party? Guess what! Now there's a monster that would be nearly IMPOSSIBLE to fight without one!" It's a fun way to get in more action, develop Sein more as a character and as a party member, but also to poke at the way storytelling just happens to work out in RPGs.

[@DiES3L24]

My first thoughts after this episode were imagine if the series ends with Stark and Fern’s 1st born child being old enough to adventure and Frieren starts another journey with the next generation. 😢

[@kagato23]

I feel like you may have just realized who actually pulls out the sword. The Evil God manifests in the world and has to fight the most terrifying Hero/Battlemage creation has ever produced. Credits show the kid at Heaven, excitedly telling the ghosts of Heiter, Frieren and Himmel (the last two holding hands) all about it.

[@artboymoy]

Yes. Been shipping Fern and Stark since they first met. Even Sein can see it calling them lovebirds after just joining them. The kneeling thing is etiquette for nobles and the way they ask a maiden for a favor or courtship or dance in this case. But it was nice to see Fern be a bit shy and while dance with Stark, she sees him in a new light and relaxes and enjoys herself. Frieren looking at her party and Stark and Fern getting closer by the window, she could probably envision what her relationship with Himmel could have been like if she realized it and opened up a little.

[@neretilderem7029]

"Are they catching feelings?" Catching? Fern lost long time ago. Remember how Stark offered to replace the love bracelet and she said angrily "Never say that again"? Or in this episode how she looks at her hand after Stark held it? Or the dreamy eyes she is gazing at Stark with during the dance? Stark is a different story, to quote Sein "he is slow on the uptake". But he will get there

[@quickdudley]

When I watched this episode the subtitles were a bit different but it was only noticeable in one line: in the sleeping village the line from Fern that had Stark freaking out was "my soul feels itchy" Also whether or not a height difference matters in dancing really depends on what type of dance it is. When I was learning lindy hop it was no issue whereas too much of a weight difference would make some moves impossible.

[@pultulf2462]

Imagine at some point in the future: Stark proposing to Fern... and Frieren witnessing it and at that point understanding what it meant back then.

[@dhamon45]

I think the Chaos Flower's curse has the wear down the victim's mana pool. That's why they fell asleep in that order. Stark doesn't use mana, except possibly to reinforce his body, and then Fern fell next since she has a larger mana pool but can't compare to Frieren. Pretty sure Sein was just plain immune from being a priest and receiving blessings and protection of the Goddess.

[@Kaorukung]

Well... About that chaos flower. As Frieren said that mages are not good on dealing with curses. And as things play out, priests are the real counter on that. So priests like Sein have high curse resistance. Meanwhile mages can resist it a little (I guess from their mana pool) So that explained why Stark fall so fast (not priest & no mana pool)

[@DogmaBeoulve]

I think most men probably knew from episode one - especially towards the end, when they're watching the Era Meteor Shower for the second (and last) time - that Himmel, at least, not only loved, but was *in love* with Frieren.

A lot of people was quick to paint Stark's dad as a bad person. I think he and lord Orden has a lot of things in common. They have a status to maintain. And they are from a village of warriors which perhaps has a tradition of slaying monsters once you reach a certain age. Stark was just to kind and gentle for the setting.

[@Ichigoku15]

Y'all, we probably gonna see Flexie big chilling with Himmel in Aureole by season's end if this show don't chill with all the feels. 😂

[@EitherProductions]

This is purely speculative, but I think that the sleep order for the curse is defined by mana quantity and mana type. Stark is a Warrior without magic, so he's first. Fern is a mage, but young and has less mana than Frieren. Sein is unaffected/last because, despite being human, his mana type is "Divine" from the "Goddess," instead of normal mana.

[@fjoergyn]

This anime is balsam for the soul When you like something like stark and fern, give "dangers in my heart" what Frieren is for fantasy is dangers in my heart for romantic You can see in seins eyes the reflection from frierens spell and the whole dance scene is hand drawn and not like in the Manga only 2-3 panels, sein getting cake zoned xD the books frieren can't decide was changing a apple in red or green
