I read the manga all the way to the last chapter released, I think the initial run was cool, had a kind of serene, surreal, dream like quality to it, like the story was about the journey of life and the meaning that it comes with, the people you met and stuff, now the couple of last chapter become a political thing about mages vs empire, or something, became "grounded", kind of lost the dream like serenity that it had, same time happend to Attack on Titan when they introduced a fucking whole new modern country, it was cool when is it was this mysterious fantasy setting and we know nothing about the world outside the walls.

I don't watch things popular with blacks and most people I know are the same. It's only nonsense when he generalizes over things like "People who use the most popular movie streaming services in the galaxy like it, so I won't", or "People born after the year 1999 enjoy it, so it must be for ZOOMERS".

What truly makes Frieren special is its emotional depth and nuanced character development. The story emphasizes the fleeting nature of human life compared to Frieren’s long existence, making every encounter and relationship feel precious. Characters, even those who appear briefly, are memorable and well-defined, giving the world a lived-in, authentic feel.
No.43501
>>41620One thing about Frieren that doesn't get mentioned enough is just how red pilled the series is. Not only is it one of those animes where it's a clear case of the longstanding Japanese fascination with Europe (Miyazaki is another example of this), but elves in the series are also an obvious metaphor for Europeans themselves.
Elves (literally "white beings") are a metaphor for Europeans, while demons are the ethnic Other and in particular black and brown immigrants. Early on in the series it is revealed that demons wiped out Frieren's elf village and that the Demon King had led a war of extermination against elves in general. This clearly represents the replacement of Europeans. And whereas Frieren found herself the only elf in Graf Granat's Domain, surrounded by humans who are openly welcoming demons into their city, how many Europeans today feel like strangers in countries their own ancestors built.
Frieren's own story is one of growing out of youthful naivety, to one where she understands the importance of extreme prejudice against demons. As someone with embarassingly progressivist views in my youth, I personally found this extremely relatable. And honestly I would say that Frieren helped me to come to terms with my own racism and understand why racism is important. Multiculturalism is like Graf Granat welcoming demons into his city, only to have them ultimately betray him, plot to destroy the magical barrier (a symbol for barriers to mass migration?), and openly seek the destruction of the city. Without Frieren as a series with its highly relatable autistic elf MC, I don't know if I would have realized this myself. But now when I'm on public transit in my city and I realize I'm the only white person around me (in a region that is supposed to be ethnically British), I remember this episode of Frieren and I understand that we too have welcomed demons into the Northern Lands with open arms.

>>43501Spot on. I don't have the time right now, but if you remind me later, I'll tell you about how Dungeon Meshi illustrates the secret plot to revive Hitler using artifacts recovered from the Roswell UFO alien crash site. In short, the dragon who ate MC's sister (Hitler) is a metaphor for the Jews, and the main party represents the United Nations.

>>43501I find it really interesting how much of the online discourse surrounding demons is "Nonono, Frieren is being racist, nothing can just inherently be bad." And just a LOT of wishful thinking about how Frieren is going to be proven wrong.
However, not once has Frieren been proven wrong in her account on demons in the show. It makes sense from a writing pov: she has been around for centuries following others who've been hunting demons, and ALWAYS sees the samd behavior. With that much timeline backing her up, you'd have one helluva plothole if they tried to write in, "They were just misunderstood/defending themselves!" But online discourse just WANTS the writers to pull a Nadesico plotline so bad. I find it more interesting how much of the audience falls for the demons' tricks, and they aren't in the same universe!
