Jean Valjean: --and then somebody ELSE recognized me. I swear most of my problems could be solved if I could just shapeshift. Edmond Dantes, aka Abbe Busoni, aka the Count of Monte Cristo, aka Lord Wilmore, aka Sinbad the Sailor, aka-- : Sounds like a skill issue to me

I’m jealous of a 28 year old white bunny with a red scarf around his neck, who does nothing but farming, buying-selling products through barter system, decorating places and gets to live inside a big old tree which was left for him by his grandparents in this underrated place called Mushroom Village.

Sousou no Frieren | Ep27 | You showed me a spell to create a field of flowers. I thought it was beautiful. For the first time in my life, I thought magic was beautiful.

Sumire and Teru being mirrors of each other is so dear to me.
Both are menaces, know about it, and have no intention to change it.
Tumblr media
Have a destructive streak and don't really care.
Tumblr media
Aware they are pretty and proud of it, eager to use their charms to escape their problems even when it's clearly not a valid argument.
Tumblr media
Tasked with enormous responsibilities from a young age, raised to save people, at the cost of their own lives being ruined.
Tumblr media
Resenting their role to the point their true desire becomes full of malice, the very opposite of their 'duty', but still being dutiful (Teru is still an exorcist. Sumire never tried to run away from her village.)

the downside of liking a new ship that’s only recently getting attention is the lack of fanfics (╥﹏╥)

Me letting go of 2023 negativity looks like this: I, personally, did not enjoy how Madhouse's anime adaptation did the Ring Scene in Frieren.
Spoilers for episode 14 of the anime, and the equivalent manga chapters they were based from.
Fundamentally I think it comes down to this shot.
Tumblr media
Himmel drops to one knee, and Frieren looks… Shocked? Surprised? Either way, it's a much more dramatic expression than I was expecting. Than the one I read in the manga.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Frieren constantly has this detached air in her flashbacks. We know this, and we know why: she hasn't yet realised that these people are important, and hasn't begun to make the conscious effort to learn about and open up to them.
So why does the anime choose to emphasise Frieren's expression? We should know Frieren's expression. In doing so, it seems to imply that it this expression is a deviation from the norm. That this affected her in a way beyond normal.
But it didn't. Like all other flashbacks, she never realised the beauty of it except in retrospect. Which is why I do think Frieren looking at the Ring after Himmel's death was an excellent addition by the anime.
(incidentally, I do like the subsequent shot of her face which DOES emphasise her confusion)
Tumblr media
No, like all other flashbacks, this isn't necessarily about Frieren, but about Himmel. And above all other chapters, I think this chapter gave us a glimpse beneath Himmel's normal charisma. At the heartbreak he carries inside.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
I think this panel single-handedly was the reason for why this chapter was the most popular chapter in recent polls.
This manga always has these smiles I love. People always say the characters only have one expression, but I don't think that's true.
The smiles all have such different feelings to them.
And this one is paiiinnnnn.
You can see how cruel he finds the situation. That Frieren would pick a gift so close to his desires whilst being entirely oblivious. His brow, raised just so, is an amused wince. His smile, so flat and drawn out, lingers in irony.
I've seen videos where people made the same comparison.
Tumblr media
(if someone could help me find the video, I'll add a link. I've found YouTube's history to be very finicky, and I can't find it)
But despite the universe mocking him, Himmel puts it to the side. In the manga, I feel you can understand his intentions even more. To accept that Frieren doesn't understand, and probably won't ever reciprocate his intentions, but he can still indulge in the fantasy, selfishly, just for a bit.
Tumblr media
I've always liked how Frieren looked here. Politely curious, I've described it to others before. She knows something is happening, but no idea what or why she should really care.
Tumblr media
While this shot is fine, I do somehow feel the emphasis is once again going to Frieren. But again, I feel like this isn't about Frieren. Frieren is entirely passive in this scene (that's why it's paiiiinnn). It's about Himmel and what he chose to do with the ring, because it shows what he felt about it and her.
Anyway, the anime adaptation is beautiful and a 10/10, but I think this is the first time I've seen the anime stumbling in adapting its source material. A pity is was with the most popular manga chapter.
I could not be happier or more surprised that this anime is becoming so popular in the mainstream. No better successor to Fullmetal Alchemist at the top of MAL.

[The Einsem] shows people phantoms of the dead to lure them in. They're illusions of people very dear to them.
