Frieren’s official website offers a glimpse of the upcoming episode 10 with some preview images and synopsis. Fans are impatient!
Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (Sousou no Frieren) spoilers ahead!
Summary
- As of ep. 9, Frieren is all alone against the army of Aura Guillotine.
- As Nakanome Takashi promised a week ago, the Aura Arc is very action-packed.
- Fans are impatient for the mana comparison, which Aura is bound to attempt with her Scales of Obedience.
- Ep. 10 will have some backstory and probably a lot of action.
Nakanome Takashi’s Tweet
Nakanome Takashi, an animation producer for Frieren, tweeted last week about the Aura Arc being a special treat for the viewers of Frieren. So far, episode 9, which is a part of this arc, was amazing, but admittedly, it seems to be more focused on action. Action is difficult to animate, but Nakanome Takashi has only praise for the team that works on Frieren. If we base our expectations on episode 9, Frieren manages the complexities of animating fights. As Frieren is about to take on an army of undead, fans hope that the anime delivers on its promise yet again.
Completing the Aura Arc
Based on the information from the official website, the battle between Frieren and Aura should end during episode 10. Fans are generally sure that Frieren will win, even those who haven't read the manga, but we are all curious to see how it will happen. It is especially interesting to see Aura use the Scales of Obedience she has been shown to own in episode 9.
Promotional Materials
The official website carries a few screenshots and a short synopsis for the upcoming episode. The screenshots show that we will finally meet Flamme, Frieren’s teacher. The episode promises to let Frieren reminisce on her time with her teacher, who was a human and is long gone, even assumed to be a legend by some. Aside from the backstory, which will also include the attack of the Demon King on Frieren’s village, fans expect a lot of action as Frieren fights Aura. As a conclusion to an arc, episode 10 should be special.
Fan Reactions
Frieren fans are numerous, and while some are avoiding spoilers, others were happy to check out the screenshots of episode 10. They are very excited to see Flamme and learn about her relationship with Frieren. The ending of the Aura Arc also sounds interesting to them. The spoiler-friendly fans are stoked to see what episode 10 turns out to be like.
