At this rate I'd prefer the author take off for 6 or 12 months straight so they could come back prepared for regular releases :sigh:

Have the mimics be animated at triple the frame rate of everything else.

Cut these scenes to real life actors who ham it up to the max.

Chapter 104
Frieren's reward is to purchase a ton of stuff that hasn't been available in decades :swoon: Hope some of those grimoires are more "useless" every day magic.

Taking another several week break, just go monthly or something.

This was a really good chapter coming off that long arc, nice and self contained with a little bit of world building and solid humor.

I have a theory as to the entomology here, but it's not researched enough to be worth discussing.

what's it got to do with insects, share your thesis

The first half of this chapter feels very out of place, like it was shoehorned in to capitalize on the anime. Glad to see some characters coming back though, and this is an interesting setup for the next big arc.

compared to Denken, Ubel aint really received undue attention. hell, she's received less attention in the anime compared to denken. recurring characters from the 1st class exam are already a well-established thing at this point

hell, whatshisname first test proctor versus sword demon already got well more coverage than his introductory role would suggest on its own

it's a weekly shounen manga, characters are going to show up multiple times, especially the ones that got more introduction than just "here because gotta have someone" like mustache dude. ubel showing up again was telegraphed way back when Kraft punched out those rando bandits

It's not what happened (which was cool and funny) but how and when it is told. The chapter doesn't even open with the usual "X years after the Hero's passing" until the middle when it changes to the main crew. It feels very out of place and like it should have been a bonus chapter or a flashback, I thought I had skipped a chapter somehow because it was so abrupt. It's even explained to the audience who those missing characters are as if we don't already know.

The anime fleshed out Laufen as this martial arts close combat mage which was really cool, especially because they probably based it entirely on her design having Chun-Li buns and a qipao-equse outfit, and your comment made me think if that becomes kinda incongruous in light of this chapter lol

The author took a bunch of breaks to help with anime production so I'd hope anything expanded upon got approved.

"Frieren, Fern, Stark, Kanne and Lawine, Aura."

Couple of strange choices there. Why no story about mimics?
