[00:17] (Flashback) Frieren
    Flamme.
[00:18] (Flashback) Flamme
    You mean "Master."
[00:22] (Flashback) Flamme
    What is it?
[00:23] (Flashback) Frieren
    Do you really think it's unfair?
[00:28] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, do you remember Basalt's last words?
[00:34] (Flashback) Frieren
    No.
[00:36] (Flashback) Frieren
    Their kind uses words only to deceive humans.
[00:39] (Flashback) Flamme
    That's right.
[00:41] (Flashback) Flamme
    They're nothing more than monsters
    capable of speech.
[00:44] (Flashback) Flamme
    That's the true nature of the
    creatures I call demons.
[00:50] (Flashback) Flamme
    They don't play fair,
    so we must be even more unfair.
[00:56] (Flashback) Flamme
    If it allows me to exterminate demonkind,
    then I will gladly embrace this dishonor.

[02:44] Lügner
    The bleeding won't stop.
[02:47] Lügner
    This is the end.
[02:49] Fern
    Your plan has failed.
[02:53] Lügner
    You're right.
[02:55] Lügner
    But Frieren won't escape unscathed.
[02:58] Lügner
    She must be fighting Lady Aura by now.
[03:02] Lügner
    Previously, we were forced to
    retreat by the party of heroes.
[03:07] Lügner
    But this time, there are
    no heroes to protect her.
[03:12] Lügner
    It's true that Frieren is a threat to us,
[03:15] Lügner
    but she has far less mana than Lady Aura.
[03:19] Lügner
    If she engages her directly,
    Frieren will lose.
[03:23] Fern
    Then Frieren will win.
[03:27] Fern
    She'd never directly engage a demon.
[03:32] Fern
    I know she'll trick Aura and kill her.
[03:36] Lügner
    Nonsense.
[03:38] Lügner
    Frieren the Slayer has always
    engaged us directly.
[03:45] Lügner
    Why do I feel like something is wrong?
[03:49] Lügner
    This girl's mana is weak,
[03:52] Lügner
    and yet I was overwhelmed by the
    sheer number of her rapid attacks.
[03:58] Lügner
    But how was she able to do that
    without exhausting her mana?
[04:04] Lügner
    I understand now. Is that even possible?
[04:09] Lügner
    So Frieren does the same.
[04:12] Lügner
    What you've done isn't fair.
[04:14] Lügner
    You're a disgrace to all mages.
[04:18] Fern
    Ms. Frieren knows that better than anyone.
[04:32] (Flashback) Flamme
    What a dreadful sight.
[04:35] (Flashback) Flamme
    Looks like an elf village.
[04:49] (Flashback) Flamme
    Basalt the Throne,
[04:51] (Flashback) Flamme
    a general of the Demon King's army.
[04:54] (Flashback) Flamme
    He must've led his forces here
    to destroy this village.
[05:00] (Flashback) Flamme
    Are you the one who killed him?
    You seem nearly dead yourself.
[05:10] (Flashback) Flamme
    That's a lot of mana.
[05:13] (Flashback) Flamme
    You must be powerful.
[05:14] (Flashback) Flamme
    Did you engage the demons directly?
[05:19] (Flashback) Flamme
    What a fool you are.
[05:23] (Flashback) Flamme
    Why do people always engage
    their enemies directly?
[05:26] (Flashback) Flamme
    Run, hide, take your enemies by surprise...
[05:29] (Flashback) Flamme
    There are plenty of other options.
[05:32] (Flashback) Flamme
    I'll never understand strong mages.
[05:36] (Flashback) Frieren
    But you do.
[05:38] (Flashback) Flamme
    What?
[05:39] (Flashback) Frieren
    You should understand how I feel...
[05:45] (Flashback) Frieren
    because you're a far more powerful mage.
[06:00] (Flashback) Flamme
    What makes you say that?
[06:03] (Flashback) Frieren
    Just a feeling.
[06:07] (Flashback) Flamme
    What's your name?
[06:13] (Flashback) Frieren
    What happened to the village?
[06:15] (Flashback) Flamme
    Its people are dead, down to
    the last woman and child.
[06:20] (Flashback) Frieren
    I was the strongest, but I still
    couldn't protect them.
[06:25] (Flashback) Flamme
    You really are a fool.
[06:27] (Flashback) Flamme
    If I'd been in your shoes,
    I wouldn't have hesitated to run.
[06:32] (Flashback) Frieren
    Put me down.
[06:33] (Flashback) Flamme
    No.
[06:35] (Flashback) Flamme
    You have potential.
    You're going to be my apprentice.
[06:39] (Flashback) Flamme
    And you know you wouldn't have survived
    if I hadn't happened upon you.
[06:45] (Flashback) Flamme
    On top of failing to protect the village,
    you nearly died yourself.
[06:50] (Flashback) Flamme
    Your death truly would've been in vain.
[06:55] (Flashback) Flamme
    We're being pursued.
[06:57] (Flashback) Flamme
    They're stronger than the general you killed.
[07:07] (Flashback) Flamme
    Interesting creatures, aren't they?
[07:10] (Flashback) Flamme
    They had every intention
    of catching us off guard
[07:12] (Flashback) Flamme
    by concealing their mana
    until just before they struck,
[07:15] (Flashback) Flamme
    but the moment they realized we were mages,
    they stepped out into the open.
[07:21] (Flashback) Flamme
    They're cunning and they don't play fair,
[07:24] (Flashback) Flamme
    but every last one of them has a ridiculous
    sense of pride when it comes to magic.
[07:30] (Flashback) Demon A
    Human mage, leave the elf girl and go.
[07:35] (Flashback) Flamme
    Will you let me go if I do?
[07:38] (Flashback) Demon A
    "Kill all the elves."
[07:40] (Flashback) Demon A
    Those were the Demon King's orders.
[07:43] (Flashback) Demon A
    Your life matters not to me.
[07:46] (Flashback) Flamme
    I see.
[07:51] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, it's true that I'm painfully aware
    of what it's like to be a powerful mage.
[07:58] (Flashback) Flamme
    I know exactly how these creatures feel, too.
[08:02] (Flashback) Flamme
    I know the absolute confidence they
    have in the magics they've studied.
[08:08] (Flashback) Flamme
    In other words, they're stupidly
    proud and overconfident.
[08:26] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, unlike you,
    they judged me a weakling.
[08:33] (Flashback) Flamme
    Though they were exceptional mages,
    their overconfidence cost them their lives.
[08:40] (Flashback) Frieren
    You hid your strength by controlling
    how much mana you release.
[08:46] (Flashback) Flamme
    That's right.
[08:48] (Flashback) Flamme
    Deceive and kill your enemies by allowing
    them to miscalculate your strength.
[08:53] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's a cowardly and unfair way to fight
    that makes a mockery of magic.
[09:14] (Flashback) Flamme
    Your injuries are looking a lot better.
[09:19] (Flashback) Flamme
    Shall we begin your training?
[09:23] (Flashback) Frieren
    Flamme.
[09:24] (Flashback) Flamme
    You mean "Master."
[09:30] (Flashback) Frieren
    Demons took everything from me.
[09:33] (Flashback) Flamme
    Me, too.
[09:35] (Flashback) Frieren
    I hate them so much that I wish
    I could exterminate every last one.
[09:38] (Flashback) Flamme
    Me, too.
[09:41] (Flashback) Frieren
    But I love magic.
[09:43] (Flashback) Flamme
    So do I.
[09:47] (Flashback) Flamme
    Which is why only you and I should become
    cowards who make a mockery of magic.
[09:55] (Flashback) Frieren
    What should I do to train?
[09:57] (Flashback) Flamme
    Try limiting the mana you release
    to one-tenth of its normal volume.
[10:04] (Flashback) Flamme
    Impressive. You're controlling it well.
[10:08] (Flashback) Frieren
    Any elf can do this.
[10:11] (Flashback) Flamme
    While you do that, we'll work on your
    fundamentals and raise your base mana level.
[10:17] (Flashback) Frieren
    That's all?
[10:19] (Flashback) Flamme
    Simple, right?
[10:22] (Flashback) Frieren
    By the way, how long should
    I keep suppressing my mana?
[10:26] (Flashback) Frieren
    It starts to get tiring
    if I do it for too long.
[10:29] (Flashback) Flamme
    As long as I do.
[10:31] (Flashback) Flamme
    For life.
[10:33] (Flashback) Flamme
    You'll spend your entire life fooling demons.
[10:42] Aura
    Lügner is dead.
[10:45] Frieren
    Now all your executioners
    have been eliminated.
[10:48] Frieren
    You've failed, Aura.
[10:50] Aura
    You're right. It's a shame.
[10:53] Aura
    But if I can defeat you here,
    then it won't have been for nothing.
[10:59] Aura
    In this battle, you've released numerous
    immortal soldiers from my control.
[11:06] Aura
    Was it wise to expend so much mana against me?
[11:14] Frieren
    The Scales of Obedience.
[11:16] Frieren
    When two souls are placed on the scale,
[11:19] Frieren
    whichever has more mana
    forces the other to submit.
[11:23] Frieren
    Aura can only use such a risky spell
    because of her tremendous amount of mana.
[11:29] Frieren
    Generally speaking,
[11:31] Frieren
    a person's mana increases in proportion
    with the time spent training.
[11:36] Frieren
    I can feel it in the mana pouring off Aura.
[11:39] Frieren
    She's a great demon who has lived
    for over five hundred years,
[11:43] Frieren
    and she's spent most of her life training.
[11:48] Frieren
    Five hundred years, huh?
[11:50] Frieren
    That's fairly long-lived for a demon.
[11:53] Frieren
    I doubt she's been challenged before.
[11:56] Frieren
    I can learn so much just from
    the mana flowing off her.
[12:01] Frieren
    Regardless, demons don't conceal
    their mana—nor can they.
[12:06] Frieren
    A pity.
[12:12] Aura
    Auserlese.
[12:17] (Flashback) Frieren
    Master.
[12:19] (Flashback) Frieren
    Demons are cunning, aren't they?
[12:22] (Flashback) Frieren
    Why don't they constantly suppress
    their mana like you do?
[12:28] (Flashback) Flamme
    They can't.
[12:30] (Flashback) Flamme
    Demons are individualists,
[12:33] (Flashback) Flamme
    but they form the barest connections
    needed to fight against humankind.
[12:39] (Flashback) Flamme
    What do you think an organization
    needs to function?
[12:42] (Flashback) Frieren
    Order?
[12:44] (Flashback) Flamme
    That's right.
[12:45] (Flashback) Flamme
    In other words, you need someone
    important to lead an organization.
[12:50] (Flashback) Flamme
    In the case of humans,
[12:52] (Flashback) Flamme
    importance is determined by status
    and wealth, like they do in this nation.
[12:58] (Flashback) Flamme
    That well-dressed man exiting
    that palace is a man of importance.
[13:03] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's hard to tell which humans are important,
[13:05] (Flashback) Flamme
    so they dress themselves up
    to make it obvious.
[13:09] (Flashback) Frieren
    Demons are different?
[13:12] (Flashback) Flamme
    They haven't changed a bit
    since they were monsters.
[13:16] (Flashback) Flamme
    Might makes right.
[13:18] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's far easier to understand than humans.
[13:21] (Flashback) Flamme
    You can tell who's strong
    just by looking at them.
[13:23] (Flashback) Freiren
    You mean mana.
[13:25] (Flashback) Flamme
    Mana is to them what status
    and wealth are for humans.
[13:30] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's dignity itself.
[13:32] (Flashback) Flamme
    They may temporarily suppress
    their mana for the sake of stealth,
[13:38] (Flashback) Flamme
    but none are foolish enough
    to suppress their mana all the time.
[13:42] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's the difference between a noble
    sneaking out into town incognito
[13:47] (Flashback) Flamme
    and that same noble debasing themselves by
    abandoning their status and wealth entirely.
[13:52] (Flashback) Flamme
    The world of demons is cruel.
[13:55] (Flashback) Flamme
    They'd never grant any dignity
    to those with little mana.
[13:59] (Flashback) Flamme
    So the stronger they are, the more desperate
    they are to show off their mana.
[14:04] (Flashback) Flamme
    For them, there's no benefit to
    constantly suppressing their mana.
[14:10] (Flashback) Flamme
    It doesn't even occur to them to do it.
[14:13] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's a pity, isn't it?
[14:15] (Flashback) Flamme
    Just as humans are bound by status
    and wealth, demons are bound by mana.
[14:20] (Flashback) Flamme
    Despite their pride in
    and unparalleled love for magic,
[14:25] (Flashback) Flamme
    they can't control their own mana.
[14:29] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, you're lucky you're not a demon.
[14:32] (Flashback) Frieren
    You're right. I wouldn't be able
    to deceive them if I were.
[14:40] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's been three years since you
    started suppressing your mana.
[14:44] (Flashback) Flamme
    Looks like I was right about you.
[14:52] (Flashback) Flamme
    You've grown much better at that.
[14:56] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, do you still love magic?
[15:01] (Flashback) Frieren
    Where did that come from, Master?
[15:04] (Flashback) Frieren
    Somewhat, I suppose.
[15:07] (Flashback) Flamme
    Long ago, you once confidently
    answered that you loved magic.
[15:12] (Flashback) Frieren
    That was only fifty years ago.
[15:15] (Flashback) Flamme
    You're right.
[15:18] (Flashback) Flamme
    In the end, all I could do
    was teach you to fight.
[15:24] (Flashback) Flamme
    Magic for revenge.
[15:27] (Flashback) Frieren
    Do you regret it?
[15:29] (Flashback) Flamme
    No. I'm glad I taught my magic to you.
[15:35] (Flashback) Flamme
    Given how long you'll live,
[15:37] (Flashback) Flamme
    you might eventually become strong
    enough to defeat the Demon King.
[15:44] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, I have one request.
[15:48] (Flashback) Frieren
    What is it?
[15:49] (Flashback) Flamme
    Plant flowers around my grave.
[15:53] (Flashback) Freiren
    That doesn't seem like you.
[15:55] (Flashback) Flamme
    I know.
[15:57] (Flashback) Flamme
    Frieren, my favorite spell
    creates a field of beautiful flowers.
[16:06] (Flashback) Flamme
    My parents taught it to me when I was little.
[16:09] (Flashback) Flamme
    It's what made me love magic.
[16:12] (Flashback) Frieren
    Huh.
[16:16] (Flashback) Frieren
    Teach me that spell.
[16:26] (Flashback) Flamme
    Listen to me, Frieren.
[16:28] (Flashback) Flamme
    You must never seek to leave
    your name in history.
[16:31] (Flashback) Flamme
    Live in obscurity.
[16:34] (Flashback) Flamme
    You won't leave your name in history
    until you defeat the Demon King.
[17:39] (Flashback) Himmel
    I've heard there's a long-lived
    mage in these woods.
[17:44] (Flashback) Himmel
    Are you her?
[17:46] (Flashback) Frieren
    I've lived a long time, but I haven't
    done much with my life.
[17:51] (Flashback) Frieren
    I'm not exceptional.
[17:53] (Flashback) Eisen
    Huh. What do you think, Heiter?
[17:58] (Flashback) Heiter
    She has roughly one-fifth of my mana.
[18:02] (Flashback) Heiter
    It's not bad.
[18:04] (Flashback) Frieren
    Who's this irritating guy?
[18:06] (Flashback) Frieren
    Leave. You don't have business
    with a mediocre mage, do you?
[18:10] (Flashback) Himmel
    No, you're stronger than
    any mage I've ever met.
[18:16] (Flashback) Frieren
    What makes you say that?
[18:19] (Flashback) Himmel
    Just a feeling.
[18:26] Aura
    Auserlese.
[18:46] Frieren
    You seem happy, Aura.
[18:48] Frieren
    Are you certain you'll win?
[18:52] Aura
    You'll see.
[18:55] Aura
    Frieren the Slayer.
[18:57] Aura
    You made your first major
    appearance eighty years ago.
[19:02] Aura
    With the party of heroes,
    you defeated the Demon King.
[19:05] Aura
    You're a mysterious elven mage
    whose age is unknown.
[19:09] Aura
    But it doesn't matter how
    long-lived a mage you are.
[19:15] Aura
    Your mana tells me everything
    I need to know.
[19:19] Aura
    I can see it quite clearly.
[19:21] Aura
    You're an exceptional mage,
    but your mana itself is unimpressive.
[19:27] Aura
    You can't have had more than a
    hundred years or so of training.
[19:32] Aura
    Not only that, but you've barely
    changed since eighty years ago.
[19:36] Aura
    Were you honing other skills
    instead of working on your mana?
[19:39] Aura
    Or were you simply wasting your life away?
[19:42] Aura
    Either way, you are no match for me.
[19:57] Aura
    I win.
[20:01] Aura
    All that's left is to sever your head myself.
[20:10] Aura
    It wasn't even necessary
    to exhaust Frieren's mana.
[20:15] Aura
    I needn't have been so cautious.
[20:18] Aura
    She defeated many of my
    immortal soldiers, too.
[20:20] Aura
    I'll have to replenish their numbers later.
[20:26] Aura
    What's this?
[20:28] Aura
    The scales are starting to tip toward Frieren.
[20:32] Frieren
    You placed my soul on the scales, Aura.
[20:36] Frieren
    Honestly, I would've been in trouble
    if you'd tried to overwhelm me with numbers.
[20:41] Frieren
    I'm glad you're so confident in your own mana.
[20:46] Frieren
    Now I can finally defeat you.
[20:49] Aura
    What do you mean?
[20:50] Frieren
    You should've figured it out by now.
[20:53] Frieren
    I've been suppressing my mana.
[20:56] Frieren
    You misjudged the situation, Aura.
[21:01] Aura
    That's impossible. That wouldn't
    have escaped my notice.
[21:06] Aura
    There was no hint of the instability
    or variation in mana output
[21:10] Aura
    that comes with suppression.
[21:12] Frieren
    I'm surprised. Demons are capable
    of observing mana that precisely?
[21:18] Frieren
    Sounds like my master made the
    right call with her methods.
[21:22] Frieren
    I've spent most of my life
    suppressing my mana.
[21:27] Frieren
    This state has become natural for me.
[21:30] Aura
    Are you stupid? Why would you
    do something so pointless?
[21:35] Frieren
    You're right. It's stupid.
[21:38] Frieren
    But it lets me beat your kind.
[21:44] Aura
    This is absurd.
[21:46] Aura
    I'm a great demon who's lived
    for over five hundred years.
[21:51] Frieren
    Aura, the person standing before you...
[21:57] Frieren
    is a mage who's lived
    for over a thousand years.
[22:14] Flamme
    Frieren.
[22:16] Flamme
    Just as demons deceive humankind with words,
[22:19] Flamme
    you must use your mana to deceive demons.
[22:24] Frieren
    Aura,
[22:26] Frieren
    kill yourself.
[22:36] Aura
    Impossible.
[22:38] Aura
    H-How could I...?
[24:20] Heiter
    Do you have someone to praise you?
[24:20] Kraft
    You're traveling to heaven, then?
[24:21] Fern
    I'm not sure I understand.
[24:22] Stark
    You've got a nice body, old man.
[24:23] Granat
    The largest magical city in the
    northern lands, Äußerst.
[24:24] Frieren
    What's a first-class mage?
[24:25] Fern
    What is that antique?
[24:26] Kraft
    I mean that we're elves.

    Winter in the Northern Lands
[24:27] Frieren
    It was the winters of the northern lands.
