Sousou no Frieren Ep 26 OST- "Height of Magic" | Frieren vs Clone Frieren MIX COVER

Frieren vs Frieren was the most epic magical battle I've ever saw, this is EXACTLY how I always imagined battles of two OP mages

[@lolasdm6959]

@@TheRookCrows No, the demon king actively held many of his minions away from just attacking humans aimlessly. He wanted to basically sustainably exist with humans, probably something like establishing Demons as a upper class in this new society where they get to eat convicts or something. The demon king understood between humans and demons, at their current rate of losses, the humans will win.

Remember the True Heros sword is still waiting for the hero that will confront the great evil. The demon lord was not the great evil there is something worse yet to come in the future of this world. And SeiRei was never sure if she could beat the demon lord in a fight. Yet frieren and her team did, hinting back to the comments frieren made about having lost fights to people she was stronger then in the past.

[@blckjack6954]

I think this scene hits so hard cause it's the first time frieren is visibly angry. Even the times when she was angry before it never showed on her face. That's prolly why when watching this scene and the stare came up, in the 2 seconds it was shown it actually put me on fight or flight mode

[@genocidejack1208]

I guess we can infer that the real Frieren is a bit of a sore loser. You can see the clone Frieren was SEETHING that she underestimated Fern and it cost her.

[@dutch24]

She probably just entered a kill-or-be-killed state, so far we know she's more embarrassed about her flaws than straight-up angry.

[@badthej]

yeah.. growing up watching action animes where the males were the cool ones, it's kinda unexpected to see this

[@Catonzo]

I loved seeing Frieren's clone fighting back at full strength. It was playing the part of Frieren's capacity when actually in danger. I would hazard a guess that most of her losses have all come in more "sparring" type battles where neither lives were in danger and she only half-assed it as she doesn't seem to harbor much pride or ego. The only way to push her to fight at her fullest being if she is at a legitimate danger of death - which the clone was. Poor Fern having to take the full brunt of that attack.

[@dutch24]

We've seen that Frieren can obliterate a part of a mountain for the purpose of only using as much as necessary, she's got to be an absolute beast if she doesn't have to worry about friendly fire.

[@Theunluckiest5437]

The only exception probably being the Demon King. (Since, according to her it has been eighty years since she was last forced to use that spell which matches the timing of the Demon King fight)

[@adamwu4565]

[@handlerone5172]

What was cool about this to me was Fern saying "This isn't like you" which I think is meaning that murderous intent behind the attack, and also that the clone dropped all defense and focused on Fern 100%. The first part is since Frieren is a mage of peace, having that killer look isn't who she is anymore and hyper focusing on someone isn't how Frieren fights. Just proves that the clone saw Fern as the most immediate problem despite her literal match still in the fight. Which makes sense as Fern did the most damage to her.
