| But can Serie do that thing the Frieren clone did? |

I can't help but dislike that character, she simply failed them nonstop... 🥲
Fern has the right to reject her invitation... 😏

| @CrazyButNot4U she failed then because none of them were worth it, aside from Frieren (she failed her out of pettines) She passed Fern exactly because she doesn't want to hold back promising mages None of the other mages were good enough And don't forget that there are still people to be interviewed (Denken, Methode, Ubel, Land, Wirbel) |

| @Marenwynn She said she knows every magic, so almost for sure yes |
| I like how frieren just lowkey called herself retarded, suggesting that the other elfs intuition is spot on so failing freiren is the right move. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| So peak That I can see the whole Mt. Everest from here. Can't believe only 1 ep remains, I hope madhouse announces 2nd season ASAP. |

| Excellent episode and it finally hit me that there's only one more to go, what a journey it has been. Was nice seeing some of the characters again after the Second Test, and exploring the Third Test too which showcased more of Serie's character as a whole towards the end, with a really good meeting with her and Frieren and then Fern later when she got accepted into being a First Class Mage. Very subtle fluctuations were shown that Fern could pick up on but it does show how much she has grown over the years training with Frieren to enhance her natural abilities this much, and the limitless potential she seems to have for the future. Serie got served just a little when Fern rejected the offer for being Serie's student instead of Frieren's, but ultimately that rejection was nowhere near enough to influence Fern's selection whatsoever. Also nice seeing some other scenes like Frieren helping Fern behind the scenes with getting her staff fixed, and even the first scene of how Himmel knew Frieren and how a 'useless' spell like creating a field of flowers managed to be a key part in changing history in their world by defeating the Demon King eventually. The music again was just exceptional and the directing was class too. I'm gonna miss the passion, high standards and love that the staff has put into this project as a whole after next week's finale. |
| This anime always surpasses my expectations, I wasn't expecting Fern to pass like this. Frieren trained her well! Next week is the finale, Finally.  |

@MarchinBunny she didn't fail Frieren because Frieren thought she would fail her no matter what, lol
She failed her because Frieren hasn't become the mage she desires. She's still not a mage who sees Magic in the way Serie perceives, that's why she failed her
And Serie knows that Frieren failing or not isn't gonna affect her life at all. Unlike Fern. She would be holding a promising mage back If she failed Fern, so she doesn't do it.

| @Kintamaman I didn't say that's the reason she failed Frieren, I said that was basically the excuse she used. Then she asked about her favorite spell as like an additional chance or rather an additional confirmation of Frieren's views. |

| Serie tsundere waifu |

| Frieren Episode 26: PEAK. Frieren Episode 27: Also PEAK. This is just so beautiful, it's so interesting. I did not expect that Frieren and Himmel backstory, it was so good /cries Denken seeing his younger self from Richter. Serie handling the exam on her own and instantly failing those who can't even handle her mana, and her trying to steal Fern from Frieren haha. +I swear fight scenes in this anime is just an added bonus, I can listen to the characters talk for a whole hour and I won't even get bored lol. Finale next week and Im not even ready to say goodbye, I hope we get a sequel announcement. |
| I bet in the end Frieren will get promoted anyway, even if Serie told her that she wasn't. In the end, it was more about being petty to her more than anything else. |
| bruh |
| I thought Serie would've passed Frieren because as Serie herself said, it's Frieren's fault that so many test takers passed the 2nd test. So based on that, and the fact that Frieren is overqualified, that Serie would've passed her. On a similar note I think Serie was upset at how Frieren predicted she would react and Serie followed through with that to a T, probably due to Serie's own stubbornness. While I'm happy that Fern passed, which I think was needed for the group to continue on their journey, I'm curious if anyone else will pass, especially Denken. |
| Oh man, why did they show off Serie's feet. Now the feet-degenerates will get on my nerves xd Same with Übel's pits... Aside from that, great episode as usual. |
| This moment from the flashback was simply beautiful ❤❤❤❤ Funny how this very same "ridiculous" flower magic ended up being the very thing to spell the end of the Demon Lord and the rise of mankind.  |

| I will miss it so much. I hope we get a season 2. |
| “Do what feels right in your heart. You will be criticized either way.” (Eleanor Roosevelt) |
| Incredible how Frieren accepts that she is not implied to be a first class mage, and what is important to her is the time she passed along his teammates, the magic she uses, specially from what her teacher showed her. Serie can't understand the limits that Frieren puts to herself to not have an "absolute monster" personality. 'Cause the time she was feeling some kind of emotion, changed forever in his vision to live. Doesn't care what others think of her. Wandering through the world was something she was used to, and founding someone like Himmel really hit the interruptor to the other way. Now thinks of the next generation, the human one. Fern is what she is proud of, and it will not dissapoint her. Frieren will do everything on his hand, and this applies to Stark too. What Serie consider stupid, for someone powerful like Frieren will be gorgerous, beautiful, fantastic, etc. 'Cause that is what life wants. Something like art. Find beautifulness in life, and you will be satisfied. |

| @CorayyAnime 1 more ep and it's over. I hope Madhouse give us some kind of hope and not leave this project apart, 'cause it really deserves his second season. It needs it. |

| @Miscanthus fyi if S2 is announced by madhouse it will be even better than whole S1 |
| Ehh and there's only one episode left to the end😢 The flashback from this episode was extremely great, now we see why Himmel loved this "cold elf" so much, and it's also beautiful how the "useless" flower magic actually defeated the demon king❤️ |
| well fern was too good cant believe theres only one left anyway frieren and seirie have a strange reletionship |

I think that was the whole point of the episode, to show that Frieren, despite appearing all powerful and almost godlike, does in fact have flaws and imperfections. I'm almost certain that this was done exactly for the purpose of showing that despite all the power Frieren has, it is herself that is holding her back and limiting her. And that is exactly what Serie saw in her.
| @zamasz I don't think that's the point at all. Serie and Frieren have very different perspectives on magic, and Serie doesn't want to accept Frieren's view in the same way she didn't want to accept Flamme's view. It's not that Frieren can't be a first class mage, it's that Serie doesn't want Frieren to be a first class mage while holding the view that she has. It's why she asks Frieren what her favorite spell is, to give her a chance to say something other than what she considers a useless spell. If it was truly about showing Frieren's flaws then literally no one could be a first class mage. Afterall, how many of Serie's first class mages could imagine themselves defeating Frieren? Not even her first, first class mage felt capable enough to test Frieren himself. If anything, this scene more depicts Serie's flaws in how she views what mages should be. |

if you rewatch episode2, when frieren use flower magic, Himmel face expression show that he not first time saw flower magic. This is the little detail.
| @chanchan988 There are many details like that in frieren that you will only notice when rewatching and paying attention to these small details |
| These two parts of the episode combine nicely because Frieren and Seria are similar, one does not understand why Fern's cane is so important to her and Seria does not understand why the magic of flowers is important to Frieren, but ultimately Frieren tries to understand it and Seria does not, this shows even more so that Seria would be Frieren if she hadn't met Himmel Or rather, Frieren did not try to understand it, but despite the lack of understanding, she saw that it was important for Fern and did not want to force her to prove her point like Seria. |

| Something else I need to point out. Serie blaming Frieren for having too many passing the second test seems silly. In reality, it's Ubel that allowed more test takers to pass because she took down Sense's copy. Frieren only really took on herself along with Fern. Had Frieren not taken the test, the Frieren copy wouldn't have been there either. So Sense's clone would have been the biggest problem. Even Denken likely wouldn't have past had Ubel not been there. |
