    The weakness with her "cutting" magic is if the defense magic does not depend on a physical medium, she herself could not imagine cutting it. What made her scary is her ability to copy someone's magic just by emphatisng with them.
    Her worse match up is definitely Fern, as she only rely on basic magic attack and defense and even if she tries to copy anything from her, it would be some magic useless in combat.

    She can't cut basic defense magic, only things that she thinks could be cut normally even if they have spells on them. She is a really good match for anyone using items or things like hair as their defense. I think you need to adapt and defend like how Wirbel did in the first test.

      This! The world of Frieren is Rock-Paper-Scissors, there are battles in which depending on the compatibility of who you face, it can become a very disadvantageous or advantageous confrontation (Sometimes simply neutral). Ubel can cut anything she genuinely thinks she can cut (at a monstrous level of imagination and instinct btw), in the examples shown in this episode it was the clothes of the magician she murdered and Sense's hair. (Pretty simple to understand). She cannot cut basic barrier defense.

    nah, you can still defend against her cutting attack with a basic defensive spell because it's engraved in her mind that defensive magic is made to block attacks. problem with sense and that dude who died was they use defense magic with physical objects that can easily be cut under normal circumstances (cloth, hair), so ubel can easily imagine cutting those simply because it's common sense you can cut through such things lol

    Important for Ubel, they clearly state that she cant imagine cutting through pure magical defense, like the bog standard barrier "Since it was made to block magic"
    Its only when your defense gets fancy (like with a cloak or hair) that Ubel becomes the perfect counter.
    So in reality if you know that she is not some overpowered lady, I mean Wirbel defeated her afterall.

      Übel relies on insctinct she dosn't understand magic on a techncal level.
      She can imagine herself cuting trough clothes or hair willfully ignoring all the magic that protects them but she may have a tough time cutting stronguer metals or magic barriers becouse she can't visualice herself cutig trough them so easily
      Her magic detection and concealment are allso lacking, and her mana pool is nothing major, allso becouse of her methods she can copy a few spells but not just any spell, it has to be a very personal spell to the original caster and she needs to have certain level of understanding of the mage's tought process and emotions to Copy them.
      This is why one of her toughest matches woud be Fern.

    That episode was wild and the Frieren clone fight was even better than I have had anticipated. I could almost bet, anyone who would have joined them, surely would have thrown their bottle after witnessing the first couple of Frieren's attacks.
    It also showed one interesting thing: Frieren can apparently use magic without a staff acting as a catalyst. The way the clone has torpedoed Fern away, after that murderous death glare, was the last thing I did expect in that scene to happen.
    Also, Übel is now confirmed quite the twisted character. However, as she said before, she has a range of about five meters. So, as long as you keep distance to her, you'll be fine for the time being.
    I am still wondering if that ultra big chest was a Mimic too...

    You can still use the ordinary defensive magic like the actual spell to block her attacks since she can't imagine using her cutting spell against the spell that can block all magics. Even though that cloak was an ultimate defensive spell, its biggest flaw was that it had an appearance of a cloak or fabric, which Übel doesn't have any problem in imagining about cutting it.

The fact that she was able to confidently hold out against Fern on her own makes me wonder what she is capable of because she seems very versatile. I hope the third exam showcases her some more.

    @adamwu4565 7 месяцев назад

    The thing that prevents Uber’s cutting ability from being overpowered is that it is intuitive and instinctive and Ubel cannot actually consciously control what she believes should be cuttable. Like she can’t just sit down and, as an act of deliberate will, decide that ok, I think steel is cuttable, and suddenly gain the ability to cut through a ten foot wide pillar of solid metal. And she can’t just will herself to believe that she cut through regular defence magic, as seen in her inability to cut through defence magic in her fight with Wirbel. She can cut through cloth and hair because she basically grew up seeing cloth and hair being routinely cut as part of daily life.
    Her cutting spell also has a limited range, of about 6 feet, as also shown in the fight with Wirbel.
    So anyone who who relies and regular defensive magic or normal enchanted metal armor can block her cutting spell. And anyone with reliable accurate long range attacks who can stay out of sight while sniping at her would dominate her in a fight.
    Uber’s worst matchup might actually be Fern.

    Knowing how broken Ubel is, and how easy she kills people, it makes her decision to learn Wirbel's binding ability a lot more significant. In Ubel's own words, she wants to have a buffer time where she makes the decision to kill. I think Ubel recognizes her own power is an on/off KILL button, and wants to learn a non-lethal power so she can disable her target without killing it.

    The best story, paired with the absolute best animation and downright EPIC music. The perfect trifecta.
    I got bloody chills during that magic duel. THIS is why I'm such a sucker for magic showdowns. The choreography, the escalation, the sheer power in display.
    NGL, that Copy-Frieren VS Frieren and Fern? I watched it three times, back to back, before continuing with the episode's conclusion. This series has made me do that So. Many. Times. already.
    -Fern's training when she was a kid
    -Fern's Zoltraak VS the original, demonic Zoltraak
    -Stark VS the Dragon
    -Fern and Stark VS the Demon Duo
    -Frieren VS Aura
    -Fern's test
    -Frieren VS Denken (all the way to Frieren breaking the barrier)
    -All the other magic duels of these two tests
    -Copy-Frieren VS Frieren and Fern
    It's just so good! This is how you make magic look powerful but beatable... with sacrifices. I seriously feared for Fern for a second there. Especially when you see her staff all broken. I so hope that can be fixed later and that Fern gets to become a First Class Mage. Frieren is a given... if she doesn't get points subtracted for her mimic runs.
    Eaten By a Mimic Count: 3, maybe 4, considering there was another mimic at Fern's feet in that room. (I will make a full, series wide mimic count at a later time).

    This episode was so amazingly awesome and I love it! Like the fights was not only next level but several levels ahead of most stuff you usually would see in fights between mages. Because Frieren or her clone basically did summon a black hole in this fights which was one small part of the whole combat. As it’s even hard to put into words just how awesome it was. Especially after Fern managed to blast away both of Frieren’s arms. Before getting shoved into the wall with some kind of telekinetic blast. As Frieren said afterwards she have not needed to use that attack in 80 years. Aka against the demon king which really is a great compliment for Fern to be compared to the demon king in how hard this battle was for her.
    But we had many other great and amazing scenes as well. Like how we learned more about Ubel and a bit of her backstory. As she is able to cut though a magical cloak that is basically uncuttable. Which so many other mages struggle to even affect it. But Ubel just cut though it like a sharp scissor would cut though a thin bit of fabric. So Ubel’s brain really is wired differently as she can visualize cutting though things that should not be cut though. So when Ubel went off again Sensei’s clone Sensei already know that clone did not stand a chance. Which is really impressive seeing how that clone did take out both Richter and Lawine. Plus even Denken know that he would not even stand a chance against it.
    So all in all a very amazing episode. And last but not least I loved how Frieren was stuck in a mimic in the end. As now everyone else could see her in this pathetic state😂 and even more funny was how it was not only one mimic in frame but three

    I'm pretty sure Frieren was complimenting Fern by saying she didn't have to use that attack in 80 years. She meant that the replica throwing Fern up against the wall was a spell she hadn't had to use in 80 years( when battling The Demon King). Killing the replica was nothing for her, she just got up really close and blasted.
    It was the invisible spell that shocked Fern that was something new. Remember? She said she couldn't even sense magic.
    I suppose I could be wrong though.
    Oh, also Übel is weak to defensive spells.Wirbel was able to defend against her even before pinning her down. I think she's completely beatable if she doesn't know about your spells and abilities. Once she understands then she's dangerous however, it seems that once she understands you and is able to empathize with you she is less interested in killing you? I guess meaning that once she gets you the whole idea is boring to her but beforehand the thoughts of beating and torturing you is hot to her???

      Ubel can't cut "magic" because to be fair it's impossible to visualize cutting what is by definition the intangible. That's why basic defensive spell can block Reelseiden. However, and this might be hard to understand, what she can't cut is the spell itself; everything else (including rocks) is fair game. In other words, if the target is "something tangible" instead of a spell, she would be able to cut it. Sense and Burg's problem is precisely that the extremely sophisticated and impenetrable defensive magic they're using is designed to be very hard to comprehend and decipher by other mages, so Ubel can simply ignore its existence because she can't visualize the defensive magic itself. She's literally too "stupid" to understand that there's an invincibility spell there. That's what makes them both easy for her to cut.

      @@AHBrandonReviewsI am not convinced that her ability can poke anything. All we have seen it do is slash, at least as far as I remember, might very well be the only thing it can do. Hind sight being 20/20 aiming in front of, or at, his feet would have been a safer choice.
      On the other hand it does require a certain amount of arrogance to expect that nothing could go wrong when being used as a target practice for various unchecked offensive spells.

    03:33 - Ubel clearly states in this episode that she cannot visualize cutting through defensive magic.
    Whereas that 2nd Class mage proctor and Sense use physical objects (a cloak and one's hair) imbued with layers of magic for their defense. And it's these physical objects that Ubel seems to be able to visualize differently from others as mere items that can be cut...just like with scissors.
    So while faster casting would be an advantage against Ubel, it's not the only factor. Plus we've seen how terrifying restraining magic like Wirbel's can be which is an entirely different factor from just pure speed.
    But I completely agree - Ubel is just mentally broken. Her reaction when she killed the proctor shows just how scary she can be lol

    The biggest mystery to me with this episode is what kind of magic Frieren used against fern, and I really think that we aren’t gonna find out until we reach the end, since she apparently hasn’t used it in 80 years, and seeing how it’s been 79 years since she returned from her journey to killing the demon king, we can probably assume that she last used it on the demon king himself, so maybe we don’t get an explanation until we get the demon king flashback.

Funny how a mimic was already have its way with Frieren after they had just gone through a tough ordeal. I wonder why Laufen was able to get Frieren, it makes it sounds like she finds herself getting trapped in mimics more often than not lol.

    ubel is probably really trying to test waters because yes she has some (a lot) screws lose, but her intention is probably trying to find out if that cloak is that unbreakable which would be the perfect test for her cause so far she intuitively imagines cloth is easy to cut. she probably has accepted the possibility the guy could die but she willing to do it cause shes just like that.
    tho her cutting magic is not that op cause defense shield magic is not something she has intuitively learned that you can cut it. her talent is that she can ignore all the principle of magic when her intuition of something is strong including upbringing of other people and why they choose to use spells.

    They explained that it's not that simple and it's not like Ubel is so over-powered. Sense and the test proctor she killed were simply especially ill-suited to counter her speciality spell. Land even brought up how Wirbel defeated her and was able to block her cutting spell with zero problems and she agreed that she can't easily visualize cutting through the basic defense magic eveybody uses, but Sense and Burg chose to not use in favor of their personal gimmick. A ton of the other test takes could conceivably kick her ass, even if those same test takes would almost certainly be killed by Sense. As Methode said, it's basically a complex game of Rock-Paper-Scissors.

    Then, Figuretively $h1tted my Pants, When I see Ubel gets binded by her Clone; That she killed a while ago. Then Another Clone of Lavine & Laoren, along with Kanne's Clown. OMG! They have to fight these clones again 😳 If Frieren & Fern's fight lasted longer--- I Doubt, Anyone Else would had Survived.
    And I recall a saying, There is a Sheer Thin Line between Genius & Madness--- And Ubel's on that line, or May had Crossed it 😳 In the World of Frieren, Magic is What you Can Envisioned into Reality. Thus, Ubel, Whose Mindset is Not Bounded Too Logically, or by Common Sense; Can Envision, If it Can be Cut, I will Cut It. While Other Mages saw the Aura around Burg thought, I am Never Gonna beat that (Bounded by Logic, Reason, & Common Sense). What Ubel Only Sees in her Mind's eye, is Burg's Cloak, which consist of cloth, which in her Mind can be 'Cut'. Therefore, What limits other mages, Does Not Apply to Flammel, Frieren, and Now, Ubel.

    Sidenote though: That spell that dumpstered Fern that wasn't a spell or something? Frieren mentioned she hasn't used it in about 80 years. That might line up with the party fighting the Demon King. Maybe that - undetectable - spell was key to defeating the Demon King. Just a random thought.
