葬送のフリーレン
Sōsō no Frieren 18
Spoiler Abstract/Synopsis:
Frieren, Fern, and Stark arrive within the massive, fortified metropolis of Äußerst, which occupied an island in the midst of a lake. In the course of the drive, Frieren reveals she misplaced eleven instances to mages who had much less mana than her, together with the demon Qual, whom she sealed. Elsewhere, bandits harass a younger mage lady named Übel. The elf monk Kraft reveals up and sends them packing. Übel thanks him, however he tells her he didn’t do it for her. He did it to avoid wasting the lives of the bandits from her.
In Äußerst, Frieren discovers {that a} fifth-class mage certification is the minimal required to check for a first-class mage certificates. When an outdated mage sees Frieren’s historic, holy emblem, the qualification requirement is straight away waved for her. Fern tells Frieren that even with out a certification, she is aware of Frieren is a good mage. This mirrors what Himmel informed Frieren 80 years prior.
For the primary take a look at, Frieren will get paired with two preventing, teenage women and childhood mates. Fern will get paired with Übel and a male mage in glasses, Land. The entire groups are required to seize a small, magical fowl referred to as a Stille. All members of the crew should return for the crew to cross. None can go away the barrier of the testing web site.
Frieren will get to know Lawine, who makes a speciality of ice magic, and Kanne, who makes a speciality of water magic. The pair impress Frieren with their teamwork, however as a result of they didn’t take heed to her, they failed catching a Stille. The primary evening, a fowl monster almost kills Kanne. Frieren saves her. Kanne studies what she observed in regards to the close by lake.
Ideas/Evaluation
The First-Class Mage Examination Arc that begins in Frieren: Past Journey’s Finish 18 causes a shift within the nature of the sequence. Till now, Frieren’s journey has been considered one of tracing the steps of Himmel’s get together. This journey helps Frieren to be taught extra about humanity. It additionally helps her recall issues about Himmel, Heiter, and Eisen. Nevertheless, as we are going to see, the time spent in Äußerst will get a way more detailed look, in contrast to earlier locations.
So what does this imply? For a begin, an introduction to a complete boatload of characters. Within the abstract, I discussed the bickering mates Lawine and Kanne in addition to Übel and Land. Nevertheless, there are seventeen different named characters earlier than this arc completes. 😅 Nevertheless, this episode primarily focuses on Frieren, Kanne, and Lawine, which is a pleasant change of tempo. Additional, we get to see how these two work nicely collectively regardless of their fixed preventing.
The second shift is the character of magic. To this point, we’ve seen Fern and Frieren solely used “fundamental” fight and defensive magic. We’ve seen demons use specialised magics. Now, we see people do the identical, akin to Kanne’s water magic specialty and Lawine’s ice magic.
I do discover it odd that this mage testing system permits mages to leap in the place they need. Usually, one would count on to start out from a fifth-level mage, then go to fourth and so forth till arriving at first-level. Apparently, Fern skipped to 3rd ’trigger that was the earliest take a look at. 😅 Nonetheless, it’s a minor quibble.
Remaining Ideas and Conclusion
Ultimately, Frieren: Past Journey’s Finish 18 shakes issues up with this mage testing. All of us however lose Stark whereas Fern and Frieren are on separate groups. Nevertheless, it was good seeing Kraft once more.
