Sousou no Frieren

[MFauli]

This episode felt rather drawon out, but I'm probably just frustrated that I didn't get to see the Frieren-fight.

With Frieren there, I agree, it shouldn't be an issue anymore, unless the anime intends for some shocking twist a la "FREREN HAS GROWN SO POWERFUL OVER THE CENTURIES THAT ALL OF YOU BEING THERE OR NOT AMOUNTS TO LITERALLY NO DIFFERENCE!!11". I like that Fern is stepping up as the one who thinks she can 1-up Frieren in raw power ,though. We're seen Fern fighting before and raw power was exactly what she was doing. I just wonder why she thinks she can overpower Frieren.

A bit disappointed that Denken won't be the one to outsmart at least-Frieren, imo he deserves such win.

Edel being hit, was that supposed to be a scratch? It look like she got pierced which, erm, would be deadly?

Sense being copied is fucked up, lol.

Also at this point it must be noted: While Denken's original plan of going in there as a group was good, imagine what would have happened had they ALL gone in together LOL.

Sense being copied is fucked up, lol.

Lends credence to the theory that she wants every single person to fail, regardless of what she says about how it is supposed to generate the need to cooperate.

She won't interfere or act, so even if she tells herself that she's tagging along for observation and safety, she knows she's going to be copied and present as an exceptional dangerous wild card.

All the examiners are hypocrites for saying what they do, but then acting in a manner that amplifies the failure rates.
