Alicia: "I refuse to cry, it's episode 1"
The Show: And I took that personally.
😂😂😂
Yeeeah, there's a few animes where you just don't get a say in that state of affairs.
It's like suggesting you won't feel pain after someone winds up and kicks you in the soft bits.
To your eternity: hold my gallon.
I went to comment something about how I bet Alicia was gonna cry this episode cause I fs did (all before starting the reaction) only to see this as the top comment 😆
I assume Frierens gasp at 19:42 meant she realized that Himmel is truly gone. For someone that has different view on time this kind of realization could be plausible. It could also be that she tried to bury sadness or something at first, until Church Bell rang its farewells to soul.
Merry Christmas for everyone here! 🐀
she realized that what her master said was true
it hits different... not the same thing but when we see our pet grows old we first don't let it sink in until its days are counted. usually we barely notice when its no longer a baby.
when it dies... we realize something has ended in our lives... something we can't access again...
sure her life is far longer than him but she realizing she missed everything about him because how short his life was... despite how valueable he was to her as a companion, something literally breaks inside the person when you realize you didn't have "next day" for your beloved companion after he passes away
I think its less of a realizing he's truly gone and more that it took a while for her to meet up "This person means a lot to me" with "I wasted the opportunity to spend time with them" and "I'll never get another chance".
Himmel once said "Tears should never accompany departure; I prefer to believe that as long as we continue traveling, we could meet each other again. If we cry, it would be embarrassing when that happens.”
Maybe Frieren thought of that, and realized death meant it was never going to happen again.
OMG... SO happy to see you do this one. It's beautifully animated, amazing, and so well written.
Being naturally empathetic is one aspect of Elves in some stories, not the case here. Frieren is more cold and logical than empathetic because of her lifespan.
And maybe just tad of childhood trauma. But saying anything more would be spoilers. Just saying that early events in Frieren life might have an influence on her ability to form emotional attachments which became a lifelong habit.
@karatsukiawildfemboy2326 I didn't say her past has anything to do with it, I said her lifespan affects it, like it affects most elves in Frieren, most likely.
I woud argue that Frieren IS naturally empathetic and emotional, she just hides it well in the same way she hides her Mana. Her supression of her Mana is almost an obvious allegory for it. She doesn't show others what she really is. She also lived alone for centuries and is therefore socially awkward. Then there's the childhood trauma. It's kind of implied that she's cold on purpose as a front so that she doesn't get too attached to people. Yes, her long life has a lot to do with how she seems selfish or doesn't think about the time of others, but as the story goes on, it's obviously more than that. It's also obvious that she was always thoughtful and sentimental in a number of ways long before Himmel died and she started consciusly being more thoughtful of others. It's a reoccurring theme in the series. Most of what she does with spell collecting is for remembering her mentor or her friends.
@@shawnpatrick1877 Maybe, but I wouldn't say she's any more empathetic than anyone else because she's an elf.
Frieren is one of the best-written stories I've ever enjoyed. Everything links together seamlessly. It's incredible.
And one thing I noticed, the anchor point of time in this show is after Himmel's death. It's always an x amount of years after his death. Before Frieren and Himmel met, she was just wondering around for centuries, with no perception of time. But after his death, this is her realization on how much time affects the world around her. She wants to get to understand humans more because she didn't get to understand Himmel enough. So that is why Himmel's death is the anchor of time in this series, because this is the _beginning_ of _time_ in Frierens perspective.
Such a masterpiece of an anime
And I love that it’s only after Himmel dies time gets recorded and it’s based on how many years its been since his death. Such a great subtle storytelling point
Lord my body isn't ready to go through the early episodes of this again. I'm excited for your reactions for this, it's definitely one of my favorite shows from last year.
For those wondering, you can thank our glorious Chad of a mod, Mr Paul for this series. He donated for most of the episodes recorded. He is also the reason that Alicia may have a stream with Bricky at some point in the future. Truly, Paul is the most Chad mod in existence
Our lord and saviour Paul. Thank you sir.
Kudos and thanks for him!!
The fact he needs to donate to get a reaction to Frieren, shows that I'm never watching a reaction from this channel again. And that Paul isn't a chad, he's a simp for a poorly animated avatar. Actual, pure cringe
Also Bricky??? You mean the bad Warhammer lore guy who gets half the things in his videos wrong? What's that got to do with anime?
@@fvoarin1307 if you don’t want to be here, feel free to leave. We aren’t holding you hostage. In this community, we want people who want to be here
With BRICKY?! _Cheers in AdRic Patron_
"Today, we are watching... Frayren" Alicia speedrunning to her first misconception of the show, love to see it
"refuse to cry" when I hear the music start up before a scene with Himmel I'm usually already in tears
I think I am in love with this show. Not the characters, voice actors or creators, the show itself. Watching it feels like wrapping up in a warm blanket. So refreshing to see something like this.
I just caught up to the series a bit ago so it's nice to see Alicia's reactions while I wait for next episode.
It was a laugh when she said she wouldn't cry first episode. It really hits in the feels because Himmel dies of old age and yet Frieren still has regrets. Normally a death in anime is the result of violence, sickness, or tragedy. So the focus on the inevitability of aging and death from the perspective of an elf and how it impacts her is deeply touching. Into the chest to squeeze your heart and make you cry.
An interesting thing to think about is that in one of the later manga chapters on the last few pages was a character popularity poll and the mimic, a character that only apears in short gag scenes got to #3 on a character popularity poll only beaten bei Himmel and Frieren.
We might need a tear count
Nah not only that cuz she gon cry almost every episode, we need a Cry Progress Meter to see how long it'll take for an episode to make her cry.
YEEES FRIEREN TIME!! This is SUCH a beautiful show and the art has me fanboying over it constantly in-between all the crying. Welcome to the club!
I just binged all 16 episodes currently out just now. I started out thinking "let's see what all this praise is about". Didn't expect to watch the whole thing in one sitting, lol. I completely understand now. It's so well written. I also absolutely love that the names always match one specific aspect of any given character. Now time to watch you react to this beautiful story.
I experienced the same exact thing just replace Frieren with Tensura.
@@frozenfoxgames5300 oh yeah, tensura is also a really good one.
Merry Christmas, Alicia and everyone else reading the comments!
I'm so happy to see you react to this! It's such a fantastic anime, a really refreshing breath of fresh 'well written' air.
Cheers!
I keep mentioning to all kinds of people that they should watch A Place further than the Universe.
Thanks for attending my TED talk.
Btw: talking about lighting in this: That show has a somewhat unique style of lighting incidentally.
I’m so happy you’ve checked this out, this and the Apothecary diaries are series are ones that I feel people love but it’s difficult to hear over other series though frieren and diaries deserves all the love! As both at some point made me cry from reading the manga.
the first few episodes of frieren broke me. I was crying like a litle kid feeling the longing and despair of the goodbies before they even happen. You can feel whats coming to everyone just by the atmosfere
Not many made it through the first few episodes without tears.
It's an anime that gives comfy vibes and allows you to let your guard down.
One of Japan's best animation studios did this Anime. Mad House did Death Note and One Punch Man, and they did their usual amazing job with this Anime too.
I heard about this, I have been waiting to see this, so much feels in this.
i saw this episode two days after my dads death and this was the first time connected so much with how a character was feeling
Frieren is imho the anime of the year just to due to getting feelings out of people on the first ep. Being the old man of my friend group, it got me really thinking on my own life and how things are and how they could have been different if I wasn't so... distance or silent. People gone, both dead or just out of state never to be seen again. The show hits harder the older you are I feel. Really got me to reach out me to my friends, even with the extra peak season hours I have been put in the past month.
I'm up to ep 14 as I have been enjoying the dub and just... I haven't been this in love with anime sense Attack on Titan season 1. I loved Gundam tWoM, but this just hits on such a personal level.
So regarding the groups ageing I have a theory. I think the presence of that shadow horn actually made Himmel physically age faster and that's one of the reasons he looks so much older than Heiter. I also suspect Himmel was actually older than Heiter to begin with but was aging quite gracefully before the horn
Wondeful choice, i dont really watch much anime now days, but this one got me to binge all episodes in 2 days and im now caught up.
Ooohhhh Alicia, this one would be right up your alley. It's such a good show, definitely more for the story. I love the way they do time because literally 80 years have passed in just the first episode. Thanks for the video!
It’s very true how emotional elves get. Ironically despite the pointed ears, they are reverse-Vulcans.
Thank you for starting Frieren!!
I hope you eventually watch 86 and Shadows House, too. Both are beautiful series that are insanely underrated-
The scene of Frieren gasping and the silence as the bell rang is her FULLY realizing Himmel is gone.
Frieren hits HARD, but in the best way possible. It's such a fresh take on fantasy adventure, so thoughtful and contemplative. You're in for a good time with this series!
Himmel is Bakugo's VA, Fern is Suletta's VA.
This anime has been so good that it got a place in my top 5 favorite animes and it is still ongoing. My sister got me the manga's first vol. as a christmas present 💜
Also, u did my man Eisen real bad, he's been talking the whole time just... lower (?
Merry Christmas, Alicia! Frieren is such a beautiful series! May you enjoy your journey with it too!
I love the fact that Frieren is this old, wise mage, that consistantly always falls for the mimic trap, EVERY TIME. Plus her personality is a mix of childishness and little old lady. Shes aloof and mysterious, but also low-key weird and kinda goofy. Shes very powerful and wise in her own way, but also simply adores finding and learning unique, wierd and quirky hedge-spells with little to no practical use, or extremely niche, simplybecause she enjoys it.
Great introduction to a series. the first episode gave me massive Violet Evergarden vibes.
This is how I choose to watch Frieren, cause I've not seen the anime adaptation. I just started reading the manga maybe a month before the adaptation was announced, and I've read through Volume 8 of the serialization, but not watched the anime. As long as it holds true to the source, this ought to be a wholesome* little ride.
Aside from that, this series' take on what are functionally immortal beings living among mortals may just be my favorite I've seen. Time is _relative._ If you live thousands of years, what's 10? Even a human life is just a blip, so how are you expected to form relationships with them? But that's the thing, you *can,* and they *do* matter. It's a beautiful exploration of that.
The anime tends to add a bit more in the montages. It holds faithfully true to nigh everything else.
I started collecting the manga after seeing the first episode. The studio have absolutely captured its essence in the soundtrack.
It's a 10.
So glad to see you watch this. It's not your normal anime but it is incredibly entertaining with many deep messages. The way they just keep twisting the knife about life is absolutely heartbreaking.
This is one of the best xmas surprises Ive ever gotten today. Glad to have you join this wonderful journey of Frieren~
And remember we got the first 4 episodes dropped on the same day, we all binged the lot and fell in love with this story
This is a Christmas present. By the by Frieren is directed by the same guy who directed Bochi the Rock
The names in this one are
pretty damn on the nose:
Frieren - (to) freeze
Himmel - sky/heaven
Heiter - happy, clear (sky)
Eisen - iron
Fern - far (distant)
Ewig - forever
One of the best things about this series is it's a fantastic example of how an anime adaptation can actually enhance a series. My friend let me know about this when he heard of it so I went and looked up the manga. In a recent episode a simple one panel scene was fleshed out into a much more impactful one. Also, the show goes on to answers questions relatively quickly so don't be afraid to ask them because you wont have to wait long.
Merry Christmas!!! Glad you picked this up. Its like having a Christmas gift! I know you will love this.
I love this show so much. Its so peaceful and serene and just a cozy, fun time. But it can go hard if it wants to. Glad you are reacting to it.
What a wonderful Christmas present Alicia❤ I just finished the Sandman and I thought it was the best of the year and I’m so happy you are reacting to it 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Ok, I can with all the confidence say now, that I have never witnessed anyone foresee a plot as accurately as Alicia does.
Me being the polar opposite makes me often literally gasp.
Frieren is the cutest thing ever an I’m ecstatic to see you react to her! 🎉❤
So happy to see you react to this!!! It’s so good, been waiting for this!
Truly a good way to celebrate Christmas, existential dread and the meaning of life and death...
Well, merry Christmas anyway everyone.
Finally! I'm so happy she watching/reacting to this anime is soooo good the characters, the storytelling, and the art style. It's just amazing, and I feel like Alicia will really like this series. 😊
One thing I love about this show is how absolutely long the adventures take. It's not like in games or other shows where "We're traveling to X," and they're there in a couple days. The land is MASSIVE, and travel takes time, quests take time, training takes time. You won't be an adventurer who did P, Q, and R; you'll be _the_ adventurer who did Y only. Sure, there were loads of things on the way, but that one quest took 10 years.
It really brings out the weight of the decision of what to do with your life.
yOOOO Frieren!! This anime is SO GOOD, Easily contender for anime of the year 2023. Also, It is directed by the same person as Bocchi the Rock, So you KNOW this one is very good
"...a perspective that put friendship in a different light. While Danica did not doubt the love Shayleigh felt for her, she knew that the elf maiden would likely witness the dawn of several centuries after she, Danica, had died of old age. How many new human friends would Shayleigh come to know and love in those centuries? Would the memory of Danica withstand the test of such a long time, or would she become just a fleeting moment of Shayleigh's future reveries? Simply put, there was no way that Danica could ever be as important in Shayleigh's eyes as Shayleigh had become in hers."
This is one of the GOATed animes, sweet! Good reacting, thank you so Alicia.
Will be great to follow along!
The ups and downs, the fun and the sads 🥺😊☺️
This is one of the few I really hoped you would watch and react to! Im really glad you did!
As for why Himmel looked so much older than Heiter, my thoughts are that it's because he kept that shadow dragon horn for Frieren for all those years, and it was having ill effects on him.
Eh, some old dunks just don't age like they should. Keith Richards lol
Has nothing to do with the dragon horn it's just a Japanese trope.
Priests just weird like that
Every episode of this show makes you feel emotional and it’s hard to even pinpoint exactly why lmao
This anime will make you appreciate the movements of fabric in a way no other even tries
FOUND IT! This One!! This is it. This right here is the reaction I been looking for all my life!!
So incredibly glad you watched this. Biggest fan of the manga, and reminded me to cherish my family.
People measure time in weird ways.
I was in the Army.
Most of the friends I made, I only had around about two/three years.
A couple for more than that, but not much.
A few died.
I will always remember the ones I was with in the shit with, getting shot and such.
Also the ones I suffered with through late work sessions, hilariously bad weather, idiotic social incidents, etc.
She says she only travelled with them ten years.
That's a lifetime and a half, especially as they were essentially on campaign the whole time.
FYI, Episode 1 on Crunchyroll is actually only 1/4 of episode 1. Episode 1 was actually Crunchyroll's Ep 1-4.
Edit: Also, having read the manga, the trailer for this had me bawling in tears. The music was amazing.
Okay so that montage of the years flying past also has other hints of time passing. The dude at 12:25 is the same dude from 11:21. In the span of just a minute, about half a human lifespan went by.
4:55 wow the 80/20 rule even applies to art and animation?! Insane ive heard that rule applied EVERYWHERE
Alicia: "I refuse to cry episode 1"
Me: *Looks at title of the video* yea, I'm sure that'll work out great
I knew from the jump that this would be a show that you'd enjoy. Haven't seen your reaction yet, but I'm guessing she's already called Himmel a baby and a bean
Merry Christmas! Really happy to see you start this show! I love Frieren such an interesting and unique anime! I hope you enjoy it 😊
Oh my gah, I am so happy to see you watching this :3 Looking forward to re-experiencing Freiren through your watch through :3
Been watching Frieren as it has come out, an absolutely top notch show, and you are in for a great experience.
Would love for you to watch the relatively feel good show called "My Love Story!!", it is my wife and I's absolutely favorite rom-fom/slice of life show of all time... with Re:Life a close second.
26:46 I'm slow and didn't catch this when I first saw it until the reveal.
(Or maybe because it was also early morning around 3am)
I really liked hearing your thoughts on the cinematography (e.g. 20-80 rule), it was really interesting for me.
"Aura... ____ ________"
"And you alright!"
If you know, you know
Dwarves in terms of general fantasy lore live a long time as well, but it's usually still shorter than elves. In D&D, Elves can live to around 750 maybe to 1000 and Dwarves to about 350. In this world though it seems elves can live potentially for millennia.
I love this anime, it looks so beautiful, and its such a breath of fresh air woth the story. Its so different and its been great watching week to week
ive watched this show and found its a story of how to deal with grief and loss. you are going to WEEP the entire series XD
Of all the things in anime, I didn't think I'd have my emotions so thoroughly thrashed by an elf serving a boy a Hamburger Steak.
let's go! i've been waiting for this reaction
Frieren is an amazing anime….Its actually done right. No over the top action scenes every episodes with hentai angles. No useless story that involves useless main characters. Its genuinely well done.
Frieren content?! This is a very Merry Xmas!
Yeah, I noticed that the artstyle makes me feel vibes similar to some of those older Ghibli movies. Which I find quite fitting.
great show so far and great manga so can't wait for more
Didn't expect you watching Frieren, but I'm actually glad you are because this is one of the best series to come out this season in my opinion. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Everyone is afraid of dying, it's just easier to forget the younger you are. Even religious people who claim to "know" in their heart there's an afterlife still have that voice in the back of their head telling them there isn't, the voice of reason. And the older they get, the louder that truth is.
Yeah this one got me off rip too, I was not expecting to be kicked in my heart immediately
Lesss Gooo! I was waiting for you to watch this
It's official, you've convinced me to finally watch episode 2 and the rest of the series lol
oh hell yeahh starting frieren I SEE YOU GIRLLL LET'S GO!
20:12 Eerie: she didn't say anything in that moment. It was a gasp because it dawned on her what she addressed in the next scene.
That's at least how I'm reading that scene.
This has been a glorious rewatch. It's actually crazy how much foreshadowing is going on. That line near the end were she told Heiter that he wasn't Himmel put me in tears 😢
OMG, Alicia, i've been waiting (patiently, mind you) for you to start reviewing/reacting to Frieren.
This anime is all about the passage of time and how it affects us. It is easily one of the best anime of the year.
i love how their names are al just german words. himmel is sky. eisen is iron. heiter is well i dont think there is an english equivilant but i guess its close to the word spiritual and frieren means freezing
I say this on like every reaction series, but man, I really like Heiter as a character. They do so much in proportion to his screentime to endear and/or fascinate me to his character.
Oh Alicia... You are not ready, this is 28 episodes of crying every episode, you can't.
If anyone wants to know the names meaning:
Frieren: Freezing
Heiter: Jolly/good mood
Eisen: Iron
Himmel: Sky
Flamme: Flame
Fern: Far away
Merry Christmas, Happy holidays and Festivious for the rest of us!
Dammit now i have to rewatch this on PATREON i cant get enough of this anime.
The good news is that Frieren frontloads a lot of the tear-jerker stuff. The bad news it that doesn't mean it's over, not by a long shot.
Ahh so you’re finally watching it huh?? Get ready to have your mind blown. This show is perfect
😮 so happy to see Alicia react to Frieren one of my personal favorite anime’s of 2023.
Super stoked that Alicia is watching this, this is in fact my choice of anime of the season\year behind Jujutsu Kaisen
Oh man, you’re watching Frieren? This is gonna be a fun ride, looking forward to it
