Sousou no Frieren or Frieren: Beyond Journey's End is an anime series that aired in the fall of 2023, creating a fever in early 2024. This is one of the most anticipated anime series, adapted from the manga of the same name by Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe. The main character of the series is Frieren, a mage with extremely great power, who helped her team defeat the Demon King, bringing peace to humanity. Let's learn more about this girl with Hobiverse through the interesting facts below.
Frieren is an elf who has lived for a long time.
Frieren are elves. You can see this fictional race in many fantasy anime, where they are depicted as reclusive creatures living deep in the forest with pointed ears and great strength. These prominent features also appear on Frieren.
If Elves are usually associated with the guardians of nature and forests, then in the world of Sousou no Frieren, she becomes the protector of humans from demons. After defeating the Demon King, Frieren traveled everywhere, and returned after 50 years to find that her comrades had become old.
Even Frieren herself did not expect that time would be so cruel to humans. Because one of the characteristics of an Elf is their age, which can reach hundreds or even thousands of years. Before she could realize her connection with others, she lost Himmel forever.
She always silently cares about her friends.
In Sousou no Frieren, the elf girl joined a Hero Party that succeeded in defeating the demon king that was plaguing humanity. These heroes included Himmel, Heiter, Eisen, and Frieren. This group of heroes spent ten years defeating the demon king. Although for Frieren, ten years was a short period of time, for her friends, ten years was enough for them to bond and love each other.
Because the time of the elves is long, Frieren thinks that there is no need to build close relationships with her teammates. Perhaps that is why she has put on a cold and indifferent shell, as well as only caring about her own feelings. However, readers can see that Frieren remembers very clearly all the memories of the past adventure, she even remembers the places she and her friends traveled, their favorite foods, the team's favorite flowers, and even the words that each member of the team said.
Likes to collect strange magic
Although Frieren is known as the strongest mage, she does not stop learning and seeking new knowledge. As an elf who has lived in the world for a very long time, Frieren has collected quite a few strange magic spells throughout her journey. Although it is not useful to some people, Frieren is still very excited. Her unique magic sometimes has the effect of entertaining her teammates in the Hero Party, these friends will not hesitate to praise the magic she creates.
Have new adventure companions
Since humans cannot keep up with Frieren, who is an elf, she believes that she does not need to form any relationships with humans. After Himmel's death, Frieren regrets why she did not learn more about humans. She begins to travel alone, until she meets her old friend Heiter. At the end of her life, Heiter left behind a child named Fern, who was interested in magic.
Unlike other anime, Sousou no Frieren begins its story after the main adventure has ended, the hero of humanity - Himmel - has also passed away, so there are many flashbacks and memories that Frieren will cherish throughout the journey. Old memories along with new experiences intertwined throughout the anime The Funeral Mage makes viewers both excited and touched. In this adventure, Frieren will be accompanied by his disciple Fern and the student of his old friend Eisen named Stark.
Master the ability to conceal mana
Frieren was taught by the mage Flamme - a great mage in the history of magic. Thanks to this, Frieren was able to master the technique of concealing her mana and she used it as a deception strategy against demons. Frieren had practiced controlling her mana for so long that even experienced mages, such as Aura and Falsch, could not detect anything unusual. Only a very few people could see through that cover, most notably the Demon King who could detect it in an instant.
Frieren can't tell which is which Mimic
Mimic is a monster that can disguise itself as a chest. When some unlucky person opens the chest, the mimic will immediately open its mouth and swallow the person. No matter how many times the burial mage encounters it, she still cannot differentiate between a chest of books and a Mimic. So she often gets bitten by it and cannot escape.
Above are some facts about Frieren that perhaps her fans should not miss. There is still a lot of interesting information not only about Funeral Mage but also about other anime series, please continue to follow Hobiverse to continue updating.
