This Storytelling Is BEAUTIFUL!! - Frieren: Beyond Journeys End Episode 2 REACTION!

[@CaraPrezReacts]

You guys absolutely KILLED episode 1 so we’re happy to say Frieren is here to stay!🙌🏼 (2 eps each week) We’ll be getting ahead on our Patreon this week can’t wait to see everything that’s in store www.patreon.com/TGLReacts

[@Yuuriyuri]

Looks we already got over a thousand likes, so I'm looking forward to ten hours of LotR videos lol

[@CaraPrezReacts]

Damn we underestimated you guys😭 time to plan how and when this is happening haha

[@mirai7233]

​@@CaraPrezReactsI was surprised about the 1k likes. That's like child's play for this fandom 🤣

[@herrproof]

But, please, read the book LotR as soon as possible. Strongly suggested.

[@samarthsingh11s16]

​ I mean what did you expect, frieren's reactions have 10x views than other anime. Increase your demand😂😂

[@DarwinAwardWinner]

"We didn't know Himmel, really, because he died quite quickly from our point of view." What a perfect example of how the show sneakily puts you into Frieren's frame of mind.

[@Eisen_Jaeger]

well said

[@darkangel8192]

I really like how so many of Frieren's flashbacks to the Heroes' original 10 year journey focus on things like making flowers and helping children rather than fighting monsters and such. It really highlights how precious she finds those memories even decades after Himmel's death.

[@cyberdude4330]

Just as Wirbel said, "It's those 'non-exciting' adventures that had the biggest impact"

[@bozidarkostoski9104]

Yeah the saying "Even little things in life matter" is key point here Frieren always says a "mere" but she still hasnt processed the fact that all those little things she "didnt knew" (knew) was actually the things that she actually knows about them meaning she acctually learned more withing those 10 years about them even tho she realizes them sooo much later

[@hhound4283]

"Is Lord of the Rings that popular?" Stunned motionless. Oh Cara. Now it's imperative, cue the extended version posthaste.

[@barbaros99]

Aren't they literally living across the water from Middle Earth?

[@H_Malik_RL]

@@barbaros99you don’t think they are Australian do you…

[@barbaros99]

@@H_Malik_RL Huh. Guess I'm bad at accents.

[@H_Malik_RL]

@@barbaros99 😂 they are British. Crazy how the accents are similar but geographically they literally couldn’t be further away from each other

[@Bayard1503]

But think about it, she might not like it... some don't. I mean if you're even a little bit into fantasy you would have watched it. BUT yeah, it needs to be the extended!

[@blerp6675]

I read yesterday that the sound guy took 2 years to compose the music for frieren.. this show is such a work of love for the talented people who poured their soul into it. It really carries this beautiful weight and effortless wisdom that sticks with you long after you're done watching it

[@Slayton1978]

You can just imagine the time skips and the accompanying montage as seeing time flying through Frieren's eyes.

[@luigimanzelli3786]

imagine living so long that if you get sidetracked into a mundane quest multiple decades pass and people you know might be dead. She always cared for Himmel, even in life, she was just so absorbed by the her research that she never visited before the meteor shower (good thing she remembered that one at least), cause initially she said she was going to pass by once in a while, but she didn't, that's what she regrets. The problem is that she was alone, if she's alone time is nothing to her, now she's with Fern so they can't be having decades sidequests anymore for obvious reasons :D

[@fjoergyn]

Evan Call did his best for stroking the ears. How Madhouse animate the step in the water is blatantly awesome. Madhouse animated the subtle things so gorgeous. /edit: The second bottle frieren poured on the grave was the bottle heiter holds after rescuing Fern. The first was the one frieren purchased for him

[@encrypt2344]

1k likes for Lord of the Rings eh. well I will contribute to that.

[@Stable_Delerium]

I’ll see your like and raise the like pot by one.

[@hendrikworung1967]

1.1k likes and almost 10k viewed, yup we'll definitely watch they react LotR 😁

[@hxlobeats]

I’ve seen the hobbit is lord of the rings good?

[@Stable_Delerium]

@@hxlobeatsLOTR is great. 😊

[@wirlwend]

@@hxlobeats a lot of fans complain quality went down with The Hobbit movies, as related to writting.

[@jamesln5392]

The show has a calming effect on the heart, that's how i feel about Frieren...

[@kikikim4589]

The story is beautiful the animation is beautiful Frieren herself is freaking beautiful, watching this anime you know for sure you're going to have a wonderful chill 25 minutes

[@zzenkaii]

And the music ❤

[@TexasSnyper]

I think the most beautiful aspect about the show is that it hits on all of our heartstrings not in a manipulative way but instead on an honest heartfelt HUMAN way... from the POV of an immortal fantasy elf.

[@Rav3r916]

Y'all are in for a great ride! For those who finished watching the first season, it's one of those anime that is great to watch all over again, truly a masterpiece. Thank you, Cara & Prez for sharing your reactions! Looking forward to the next one! 🙏💚

[@GoatLuffy_97]

Evan Call really brought his A game for the music. He was given the time necessary to produce something top tier. Same goes for everyone involved with this anime.

[@athernandez666]

14:05 hits different after having watched the entire season. How can Himmel be so perfect?

[@Timmycoo]

This show really utilizes the ability of Flashbacks to perfection. There's a reason Himmel was the fan-vote of being the favorite lol. The more you watch, the more you love him lol.

[@dhamon45]

If you pay attention to the bottles Frieren pours onto Heiter's grave, the second one is the bottle Heiter was holding when he stopped Fern from jumping, meaning that's the day he gave up drinking, for the little girl he fostered.

[@Minato1337]

Oh you're going to love this show even more as you keep watching

[@Kevinofrepublic]

man I love the detail that Fern chose magic for the same reason Frieren collects spells. Because doing so made people they love happy.

[@davetheblade]

In a great piece of visual story telling that I don't see a lot of people pick up on is the Seed Rats. They're shown three times before it's revealed that they are the key to finding the flower they were looking for! This show! 😭♥

[@tregnirit1278]

its such a chill show it really gives you peace

[@arashimiyazawa8165]

17:23 "We didn't know Himmel, really." Neither did Frieren. She 'knew' all the things she's remembering here, of course, but she never really thought about them or put them all together into an understanding of him as a person. So that's why the show is formatted like this. We get to know Himmel as Frieren gets to know Himmel. It's such a great show :D

[@druidicdwarf]

i love the exploration of human to elf and human to human relationships here, thank you so much for reacting

[@Lance-b6e]

YESSSSSS FRIEREN AGAIN

[@hurpdurp916]

Extended additions! And yeah, this show is just beautiful, non-stop feels.

[@rhettdelacruz2219]

Evan Call is one of the best composer on those musical ost same with Hiroyuki Sawano.

[@ap4e_941]

Those two are also my top 2 and it‘s not even remotely close. Between, AoT, 86, Violet evergarden and Frieren they made all my favorite osts

[@GiulianoVenturo]

also remember the 4 first ep were air as a movie the same day, so the "actual" end for the first ep is on ep 4

[@hxlobeats]

This show makes my soul happy

[@lostfigure3703]

I can't wait for your reactions to more episodes of Frieren! A lot of the questions you asked throughout this ep will get answered as you go through the series !

[@jameshunt9208]

The music composer is Evan Call.

[@ObiwanNekody]

Frieren brings peace because it's a out being happy it happened, not sad that it's over.

[@foulerkitten5978]

I have a couple eps in mind but just letting you know. FRIEREN will make you cry 😭

[@jaoferrarez]

Friren é, de longe, a oitava maravilha do mundo. Como pode?

[@takonaegi2967]

Frieren is that special type of a show, that creates very peaceful and pleasant mood. And besides all other great things in it, like music, animation, humour and characters, it's this peaceful and comfy vibe that elevates this show to it's massive popularity. Which also could ve said about LOTR, so watch it, it is THAT popular)

[@ObiwanNekody]

With 1 exception, all of the names of people and places in this series are German words. While knowing them isn't necessary to understand or enjoy the show, there can be a lot of added value, especially with symbolism, for knowing the names. Frieren - (to feel) cold Fern - Distant Himmel - Sky/Heaven Heiter - Cheerful, bright. Also part of a German word for something along the lines of 'happily drunk' iirc Eisen - Iron Flamme - Passion, flame The easiest example for added value is how often you see shots of the sky and Frieren or Himmel framed against the sky. These are Himmel references, showing he's there symbolically.

[@marcelovillalva4547]

Lord of the rings I'd watch along for SURE!!!

[@marcelovillalva4547]

You said how much She's doing for him in death but I think it's the other way around

[@generalx13]

Cara having no clue that Tolkein basically fathered all of modern fantasy with Lord of the Rings.

[@levisiem4145]

How have you guys not watched the opening and outro songs yet?!

[@TheHumility101]

prepare yourself emotionally for episode 14

[@drakesacrum8445]

I need that Lord of the Rings reaction RIGHT NOW. Of course it is popular, it is literally the model for modern fantasy. All the games, animes, novels and movies in the genre are inspired by LOTR books and movies. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if suddenly twilight had some slight inspiration in LOTR(I doubt it but my point stands).

[@El_Carlangas]

Please educate her with Lord of The Rings it's a such fun story.

[@shadowwordpain3138]

"How strong is she?" Chat: 😏

[@wozing]

It is exceedingly rare for someone to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy and come away not absolutely loving the story. It has an appeal to everyone. Even if you don't love it, I don't think I know of anyone that regretted watching them. I meant to comment on the last video, but even with the flowers in this episode, this show makes me awestruck with how pretty and beautiful things are. Like, if this is how girls feel when watching Disney princesses, I think I get it now lol.

[@bigboyjeff6151]

lotr lotr lotr do ittttt my precioussss

[@Sandwhaler]

"How many years is soon?"

[@tiutlivelt8531]

Oy oy oy I "liked" maybe 4 videos in my live and this is one of them. Im waiting for a LORT reaction.

[@CaraPrezReacts]

Currently about 1/3 done editing, should be 2 weeks or so lol

[@flimermithrandir]

I give a like for watching someone fall in love with the best Film ever made. Sure.

[@nathanspreitzer6738]

1k likes to watch what inspired all modern fantasy including Frieren I guess I’m in

[@LeBeloy]

I did my part :) LOFR is HUGEEEE :) :)

[@bozidarkostoski9104]

Keep up the series yes if you can squeeze 3 eps per week plz do so itll end up making us all happier xD no pressure tho but for sure make cara react to LOTR she must "ITS A CRIME SHE HASNT SEEN IT YET"

[@MrHeiska01]

In most character polls Himmel is the most popular character in the show by large margin and we hardly even see him.

[@MrAnonymousization]

1k likes is guaranteed 😏

[@koszy]

also the opening and ending are great !

[@Minato1337]

Lord of the Rings is a must!

[@Siennamerdein]

Baby fern acquired ❤

[@susbedo9258]

As a big fan of LOTR for many years, I can safely tell you that Frieren is even better than LOTR.

[@Dintsay]

👁👄👁

This man owns a whole cap store. (I love frieren btw)

Oh? Lord of the ring reactions? Don’t mind me, just gonna hit that like button

If you watch the op, please give us a full reaction to it!

[@edamame1879]

the flashbacks in frieren are beautifully done🥹 it took a bit longer for me to start watching this bcz i already read the manga and i didnt want to cry lmao

[@Green-3c34y65vrbu]

algothyrthem but spelt wrong

[@GiulianoVenturo]

0:35 I didnt watch LOTR until a few year ago and even I knew it was popular as much or even more than harry potter xD. and ngl I would prefer rewatch frieren rather than LOTR

[@ac7268]

For the algorithm!!

[@tregnirit1278]

lets gooooo

[@yuangarcia9198]

Let's gooo

[@hulmhochberg8129]

"Is lord of the rings that popular?" Oh, not much. Its merely the benchmark of the Fantasy genre.

[@gayuiraktavinesa8189]

Guyuu❤

[@williamwhitcher7496]

Like for frieren! Like for lotr!!@❤

[@flashbox9]

0:35 BLASPHEMY

[@ObiwanNekody]

Lord of the Rings is the foundation of modern fantasy.

[@FilipinoRAV3]

Im ready for lord of the rings reaction!

[@lynpotter6471]

I didn't really like LotR. Not saying it's bad, but it just didn't catch me the way this show did. I think the emotional palette doesn't have as much consistent contrast so I sort of shriveled up to protect from the near constant grimness.

[@AT2035_Microphone]

Cara hasnt seen LOR? Then light the fires and let the whole of the realm know.

[@K000H]

Cara. You're gonna watch Lotr :DDDDDD

[@spcraftsman2656]

Is Lord of the Rings that popular she asked. Brother.

[@DMBABT]

5k for the Hobbits too

[@alexandrep830]

now u should react to lord of the rings hahahh

[@Eisen_Jaeger]

Make her watch the Hobbit first..

[@aleidpalentinos1256]

You guys should react to Boku no pico. It also has a heartfelt story same as this one. Kinda like lord of the rings as well.

[@piercingtheheavens36]

Lord of the rings is so popular its often the series that gets reaction channels their big breaks. Channels will get like a few hundred views and then when they react to lotr they jump to like 80,000

[@nether_prince3021]

About LoTR, I think I would enjoy the book version of it. Like a novel. It was from a novel right ? ... Right ? I've seen the movie, not the whole, but try to watched but I don't remember anything about it, meaning it doesn't leave any mark. Not impressed about the characters and a bit of story that I catch. So I never look back at it. I got Narnia vibes from that brief time. But it just doesn't hit me like Narnia did. Sorry if you disagree.

[@Shtuhtefup]

Yall talk over the dialogue too much
