All 25 Mages in Frieren EXPLAINED

[@Jonathan_Collins]

Obviously, the strongest mage is Himmel, with his magic that lets him buy thousands of statues on a traveler's budget.

Well, he didn't buy them. He chose them as rewards for helping people with protection from demons and monsters.

Small correction: Ehre is the one who is a granddaughter of a First Class mage (granddaughter of Lernen, specifically). Edel does come from a family of mages too though, and they do specialize in mental magic.

[@adamwu4565]

It should be noted that Frieren did not just chill around in the forest for the entire time between Flamme's death and when she joined Himmel's party. Her holy emblem was already ancient and not recognized by Himmel and the others, so she must have done something remarkable enough to earn it, in the time before she met Himmel. We also learn in the manga later that at some point in her past, before she met Himmel, she fought, and lost, to Macht, and that it took her several centuries to fully reverse the consequences of losing that duel.

[@8bitt625]

She also got her title of frieren the slayer during that time(most likely guessing from what’s in season 1)

[@Lucas_Rangel]

I think it "only" took her 100 years to undo Diagoldze, but she like spent the next 500 years doing nothing if im correct, so basicaly macht traumatized her and it took HIMmel to make her fight demons again, I could be wrong tho

[@adamwu4565]

@@Lucas_Rangel IIRC, in the manga at the start of the El Dorado Arc, Frieren is offered a very rare grimoire as payment for helping deal with Macht, but the moment she heard it was Macht she went like "nope, can't do. Take your grimoire back." So yeah, she was utterly terrified of Macht.

[@normal6483]

Lernen apparently specializes in making Golems, since it was said that he made the Golems that protected the test takers in the second phase of the exam, and Serie envisioned him making Golems when she talked about remembering her students' favorite spells.

[@LawfulBased]

I dunno what kind of black sparking attack magic he used but it seems like his spell is able to crack even Frieren's defense shells in a single blow. Since Frieren evades the attacks and the battle ends pretty calmly, many people seem to simply not notice it but it seems his attack cannot be blocked by mana alone. Denken could literally not touch Frieren no matter what he does. Since Frieren has enough mana to use this hexagon-defense spell in a perfect bubble all around her. But it is most probably useless against Lernen.

[@normal6483]

@LawfulBased I think that was simply the original human-killing version of Zoltraak. He used it because it was specialized in killing her, and he attacked quickly and forcefully enough that her barrier wasn't good enough.

[@MagiCaster001]

​@@normal6483 think so too cuz frieren in previous episode also said that zoltrak is kinda a new spell that she need to manually cast defensive magic when facing one as she didnt develop an automatic response to it yet

Watching this video made me realize that the Elves in Frieren are weird. In a good way. They are very aloof and stoic in comparison to humans yet they have so many childish tendencies. They see the bigger picture yet fail to understand how to properly put the pieces in place to make it work. This show does a good job to make Elves feel very different from humans. So much media portrays Elves as human but prettier when in actually they should always be portrayed as a separate race. Another point for Frieren.👍👍

[@dareka9425]

I like the elves in Frieren because they feel like long lived humans with pointy ears. I'm not a fan of Western elves who think they are higher form of creatures and abide to strict rules or beliefs. Frieren herself comes from a village. In fact, I really love how Frieren portrayed the other races as fellow beings. Anime does this a lot but the non-humams are always portrayed as oppressed/undesired minorities/outsiders to humans or just harem material for isekai cringe lords. In Frieren we have an elven monk traveling the world for centuries, a loyal dwarf protecting the village of his beloved late wife, another dwarf who taught a human kid how to fight.

Serie is chaotic neutral. She is not actively trying to create a world of pure caos (probably because of too much effort in doing that) but she prefers that kind of state. That's why she allowed the Demon King to do his shit.

ubel cutting spell is wildly powerful in that age. and the only reason why it does cut through defensive magic is bec she is trained as a mage to see defensive magic as defensive. thus strong against offensive magic. she absolutely could mold her spell into imagining cutting through the "seams" of the spell. if i had to wager a guess.

An entire immortal species turned her into the genocidal boogie man. Also Serie uses the Flower Bed Creating Magic because it was Flamme's favorite spell. Frieren explained it to Lernen when he tried to kill her for Serie to remember him via his acomplishment. Even if it's not something she likes, she'll use it and tend to it because of it's importance to Flamme as someone who was important to her. She does this with ALL of her apprentices.

She didn’t want / couldn’t cuz she cant imagining herself living in a peacfull era for why she disliked the idea of why humans shouldn’t learn magic is imo like teaching kids quantum mechanics but they would never survive past the age of 6 so in her eyes all what they could learn in that short amount of time would never be of help in her problems they could learn simple math and other things but it would be a waste of time (atleast that how i interpreted her unwillingness to teach humans at the start cuz most humans cant do it but if one has the talent in her eyes she will do it)

[@bndlett8752]

Correction: Serie has only collected *most* of the spells ever created. In the anime, it had usually (if not always) specified that she has only collected most of the spells ever created rather than all of the spells ever created. Albeit, what is defined as "most" is unclear in the anime afaIk.

[@Gen-o3j]

Spoilers for anime and manga: An interesting interpretation of mine is that Frieren and Serie both show characteristic lack of emotional awareness or a disconnect between their emotional and logistical intelligence. Frieren has a hard time relating to others and it bothers her, as she does care, but the long lives of elves and reliance on logical thoughts makes her default responses unintentionally cold. You can interpret her name as a metaphor for freezing emotionally. To freeze means that you need warmth, but can also cause cold to others. Serie shows a similar character flaw, but if you look at her name, it seems more like a metaphor on numerical intelligence. On the surface, her apprentices and spells are just numbers to her. Her logical approach can make it seem like Flamme was just another apprentice to, a number among many. And then she reveals how she remembers each of the apprentices and their favorite spells. She is a collector, but she remembers each person, each spell and it is treasured, because it adds to the series. The tragedy of hers is that she keeps maintaining the series, and no one is left but her, because she outlives humans.

"Th" in English is usually a "D" in German words that are related to it. The lengthening of the a in "Draht" mirrors what English did with the lengthening: it stretched "Thret" into "ThrEAt" to accommodate English in order to keep the lengthening effect while reading it.

I don't think they ever said that Land could only have two clones, just that it took him time to prepare a clone. How convincing a clone was might've been proportional to the amount of time he spent in preparing it. Ubel also had the ability to learn the spells of others once she could empathize with them and understood them enough. Also Sieren asked Lernen if he actually saw the fluctuations in Frieren's mana and he said he didn't but that she must be hiding her mana. Basically he did not detect Frienen's mana reduction, he deduced it which is also the case with Heiter who said it was being her companion for ten years that he believed she was hiding her mana. Also maybe it was only in the manga but Sieren said she hid her mana for a hundred years but got bored of doing so as she saw no reason to do so. Sieren also said she did try to defeat the demon lord but the demon lord was always prepared for her and evaded her attenpts, perhaps because she didn't hide her mana as much as Frienen did. Sieren also said that it was only the Demon Lord that could tell at a glance that Frienen was hiding her mana, that does not imply the Demon Lord could accurately estimate Frienen's mana capacity, just that she was hiding it, that statement also implies that perhaps Sieren may not herself be able to see that Frienen's mana fluctuated and also only deduced that Frienen hid her mana which is reasonable because she knew Flamme hid her mana and also saw Frienen when she was being trained by Flamme a thousand years ago. As to Frienen having less mana than an elf her age, Sieren did say that but it was also said that Frienen was gifted in magic for her village when she was rescued by Flamme from the destruction of her village by the demons so having less mana than expected may only have been an opinion and may have been obfuscated by Frienen's early mana hiding when being trained by Flamme. Even Frienen's training of Fern started with asking Fern to at start by trying to only show 1/10th of her mana ao there is the issue of degree to which the mana is hidden (plus Frienen captured the bird by hiding all of her mana which she could only do while staying absolutely still and the two girl mages said they didn't even know that hiding all of the mana could even be done). The way I would interpret the manga is that Lernen, and Heiter only deduced that Frienen was hiding her mana not observed it, and Sieren's evaluation of Frienen's mana capacity was from when she saw her a thousand years ago when she was first being trained by Flamme who started with just having her hide a portion of her mana, probably focusing on stability over the amount hidden so Sieren's estimate could easily be an underestimate especially if Flamme was trying to have Frienen's control be stable enough to fool Sieren by simply not hiding as much.

8:58 yah i was so surprised

5:21 You guys spelled his name wrong, it's Draht 😅

[@bastip.807]

It still amuses me, that the Author choose German Words and decided to make them the names of the characters and places. Here is a list of al the names and their meanings, I have in my head right now, for those who are curious about it: Frieren = to freeze Himmel = heaven or sky Eisen = iron Heiter = it could mean sunny and cloudless weather, but also a merry or jolly person Serie = series Denken = to think Wirbel = vortex Lernen = to learn Fern = far Stark = strong Flamme = flame Kraft = strength or force Qual = agony Aura has the same meaning in both languages. Same goes for Land and Methode Richter = judge Laufen = to run Edel = noble, precious or gallant Sense = scythe Ehre = honour Scharf = sharp or precise Falsch = wrong or fake Lügner = liar Draht = wire Linie = line Kanne = jug Lawine = avalanche Übel = means sick as a condition, or bad as a personal trait.

I like how you are doing different anime instead of just glazing 2-3 popular anime

[@SageEditzz]

I wonder why i clicked on this video🤔

[@Charlitos-gn7fe]

its weird to think in an anime about a mages journey we have only seen 25 mages

[@ThisIsChris-Anime]

25 mages in 26 episodes is kind of a lot

[@Giacomo_112]

I can't wait for el dorado arc

[@francisgentle8314]

More notably, Ubel is capable of "ignore" the defensive magic inbued in things, as her visualization seems to be far more superficial or practical. Richter explains perfectly how magic works, talking about how a mage is being able to do only what they can visualize doing, and in fact Kanne isn't able to control the water in someone because, despite the human body being 70% water, no one could really visualize the single particles of water inside someone. This basically says that Ubel is a normal mage, reelseiden works just like any other magic: it does what it can if the mage can see doing it, in this case cutting cloth or trees like a scissor or saw would do. The controveristy grows when she is able to cut through indestructible objects imbued with magic (Burg mantle, Sense hair and the dungeon walls). However, since imbued magic seems "invisible", she can't really imagine not cutting a normal looking piece of cloth. This actually led me to theorize that she can't percieve magic outside her own (she didn't notice Wirbel's ambush, Fern did; and other false postives or situations she could that i am now forgetting, maybe), probably because she's more of a fighter than a mage since her combat style is more focused in close quarters, using her own staff as a polearm, in combination with reelseiden and not using defensive spells. Her spell is basically a cheat code for a fighter. For dnd her class could easily be a multiclass with warrior and sorcerer since she didn't study magic (given her poor situation) and rather just obtained by feeling it

[@rsk2735]

Ubel deadass got world cutting slash tf

[@НикЕфремов-ц3г]

What would it be if combine Laufen and Ubel pool of spells. Assured death with a blink of the eye. Ultimate assassin mage.

[@brentgroen3204]

You forgot the defence flashback mage

[@vanhuynguyen3438]

Why you didnt read the manga

[@henloisiyu]

To attract a larger audience, cause a lot of people don't like spoilers ❤️

[@stefanosdelacruz2075]

I believe it was discussed that serie does have the capabilities to destroy the demon king, but actively choses not to simply because it does not concern her. Her whole belief is that magic's purpose is to ensue war and chaos, albeit not actively trying to create chaos by not killing the demon king, she choses to simply let the demon king exist because it creates opportunities for how she wants magic to be used, which is to kill.

[@Peanuttheannoyance]

Werbil is literally wriothesley change my mind

[@fortello7219]

We do know something about the Holy Emblem, actually. We know she didn't have it when she was an apprentice of Flamme and that it was old by the era of Himmel. To the point that even knowledgeable people didn't know what it was. Thus the emblem is likely from the era of Flamme or just after, and as such would only be recognized by elves or those close to one. As well, even after taking the first class mage exam Frieren shows no difficulty with the test nor does she claim it was difficult. This implies that the test/achievement to get her Holy Emblem was greater than the first class mage exam. So we can reasonably estimate that it was a symbol of the greatest mages of the era of Flamme. Fitting for one of her students to have earned.

Height of magic isnt really fully fleshed out but its understood that imstead of using magic to make your imagination reality, it uses mana to bend reality using will. Height of Magic is more than just force. Its will.

[@topazdrake42]

Wonder if Richter uses earth magic cause of the richter scale

[@GaionSputro]

My waifu in this series ->12:46

[@lvjungle2840]

Wait theirs new season??? 😂

[@Mcloganberry]

At the moment there’s only the first 28 episodes, currently no season 2 announcement

[@ryanlee8317]

Technically Sense is not weak to cutting magic, its just that Ubel is special and can cut through anything she can imagine cutting, so she ignores the countless defensive spells cast on Sense's hair

[@milespierce8209]

This is a anime that is just underrated just like soul eater

[@KirbosCorner]

Serie is not pronounced like siri its pronounced like sehrie, also ubel can cut the hair because o how she thinks, Most people who would use the same spell as ubel would never be able to cut the hair beacause it has such strong defensive spells on it

[@rage_2000]

Klein was this close 👌 to meeting his ideal woman

[@skydonkey9515]

I don’t think Frieren forbade Fern from using other spells, Fern mentions in her battle against Ehre that basic spells are more than enough to combat mages of this era lol.

[@potaatochan]

Methode specializes in goddess magic.

[@skippi99r32]

"in auberst" bruh

[@Kayem237]

Episode 21, of which you used footage in this video, directly explains why Serie hasn't killed the demon king. Though the translation is a bit wonky on the subs. Magic in Frieren is a world of.visualization. Ubel can cut Sense's hair because "it's hair, of course you can cut it." In the show Flamme says that herself and Serie can't kill the demon king, because they can't see themselves living in a peaceful era, but Frieren can. Serie doesn't kill the demon king because she can't visualize a future of peace.
