[00:16] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    Hey, Sein!
[00:23] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    That mage said they'd take our photo.
[00:27] (Flashback) Young Sein
    A photo? What's that?
[00:46] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    Don't worry about it. Come on.
[00:54] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    This is the start of our legend!
SIGN    Beyond Journey's End
SIGN    Episode 16: Long-Lived Friends
SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,
    in the Klar region, located in the northern lands
[03:03] Stark
    Is he really a strong warrior?
[03:06] Frieren
    He's a dwarf who's protected the village
    we're heading to for almost 400 years.
[03:10] Fern
    What's the life expectancy of dwarves?
[03:14] Sein
    About 300 years.
[03:16] Frieren
    His name is Old Man Voll.
[03:18] Frieren
    He's a long-lived friend of mine.
[03:21] Frieren
    I want to chat with him before he dies.
[03:24] Stark
    That's not funny.
[03:26] Fern
    But it's true that there aren't many people
    who can talk about the past with you.
[03:33] Fern
    Perhaps a detour like this one
    isn't so bad once in a while.
[03:37] Frieren
    Maybe I'll stay for a decade or so.
[03:40] Fern
    We're staying one week at most.
[04:03] Sein
    That's the village?
[04:11] Frieren
    Old Man Voll.
[04:13] Frieren
    It's been a while.
[04:16] Frieren
    Well? Doesn't he seem cool,
    like an old, seasoned warrior?
[04:21] Stark
    He's way beyond old.
[04:25] Voll
    Remind me. Who are you?
[04:28] Stark
    He's totally decrepit.
[04:30] Frieren
    It's me, Frieren.
[04:34] Voll
    Ah, yes.
[04:38] Frieren
    You're still pretending to be senile?
[04:44] Stark
    Huh?
[04:48] Voll
    Most deaths in battle
    are due to carelessness.
[04:53] Voll
    It's the greatest weakness
    of both demons and people.
[04:58] Voll
    Can't stand, can you?
[05:00] Voll
    Even the most experienced warriors
    can easily suffer fatal injuries
[05:04] Voll
    if they're not attempting
    to defend themselves.
[05:09] Voll
    If I'd drawn my sword then,
    you'd be short one leg.
[05:14] Frieren
    Your strategies are as underhanded as ever.
[05:18] Voll
    Frieren.
[05:20] Voll
    You are welcome here. Make yourself at home.
[05:26] Stark
    Wait, Frieren.
[05:29] Stark
    I can't walk.
[05:30] Frieren
    Stark, train with him while you're here.
[05:35] Stark
    Okay.
[05:36] Sein
    He's one heck of an old man.
SIGN    You're welcome to use this firewood.
[05:43] Frieren
    I'd like to stay here for a decade.
    Find us some work.
[05:47] Fern
    Ms. Frieren, we're only
    staying up to one week.
[05:51] Frieren
    Okay, fine.
[06:09] Villager A
    It's a small village.
[06:11] Villager A
    No one else would take the job,
    so I appreciate it.
[06:15] Fern
    It's not like we have anything else to do.
[06:18] Villager A
    Anyway, I had no idea
    Old Man Voll had friends.
[06:22] Villager A
    I've never seen him converse
    so happily before.
[06:26] Villager A
    He's a senile old man.
[06:28] Villager A
    Normally he struggles
    to hold a conversation.
[06:31] Villager A
    He's protected the village from monsters and
    demons for years, but nobody knows why.
[06:39] Villager A
    He's like our protective deity.
[06:42] Fern
    He's been alone this whole time.
[07:24] Frieren
    A week flies by, doesn't it?
[07:26] Frieren
    How is Stark?
[07:29] Voll
    Humans develop quickly.
[07:32] Voll
    He's improved a fair bit.
[07:34] Frieren
    I see.
[07:37] Frieren
    I had fun, Old Man Voll.
[07:41] Frieren
    I'm really grateful to you now.
[07:45] Frieren
    You're the reason I got to know
    Himmel and the others.
[07:50] (Flashback) Himmel
    Old Man Voll, why do you
    defend this village?
[07:54] (Flashback) Voll
    It's ancient history now.
[07:57] (Flashback) Voll
    It doesn't matter.
[08:00] (Flashback) Himmel
    People don't risk their lives
    for things that don't matter.
[08:07] (Flashback) Voll
    I'm just defending the village my wife loved.
[08:17] (Flashback) Voll
    She was a human.
[08:20] (Flashback) Voll
    I'm merely keeping the promise
    I made a long time ago.
[08:29] (Flashback) Voll
    But I won't say more on the subject.
[08:33] (Flashback) Voll
    I couldn't adequately describe
    her face, or voice, or eyes.
[08:39] (Flashback) Voll
    This is my memory alone.
[08:44] (Flashback) Voll
    It's silly, isn't it?
[08:47] (Flashback) Voll
    I've been keeping a promise
    I made to a dead woman.
[08:53] (Flashback) Himmel
    You're right.
[08:56] (Flashback) Himmel
    But I'm sure she's glad
    you're keeping your promise.
[09:06] (Flashback) Voll
    Himmel, you're a good hero.
[09:10] (Flashback) Voll
    I'm sure you'll defeat the Demon King.
[09:14] (Flashback) Voll
    My wife wished to see the era of peace that
    comes after the defeat of the Demon King.
[09:22] (Flashback) Voll
    I'll carry the memory of the great
    hero Himmel into the future.
[09:29] (Flashback) Himmel
    I appreciate it, but you
    don't have to do that.
[09:35] (Flashback) Himmel
    I have Frieren and Eisen in my party.
[09:38] (Flashback) Eisen
    I won't live as long as an elf.
[09:41] (Flashback) Himmel
    Then it'll be Frieren's job.
[09:45] (Flashback) Himmel
    She'll carry our memory into the future.
[09:50] (Flashback) Himmel
    Right?
[09:51] (Flashback) Frieren
    Fine, I guess.
[09:54] (Flashback) Voll
    I see.
[09:57] (Flashback) Voll
    You've been blessed with good companions.
[10:01] (Flashback) Himmel
    Later, I'll have to show you
[10:03] (Flashback) Himmel
    the collection of handsome poses
    I came up with.
[10:07] (Flashback) Frieren
    Actually, maybe I won't remember you.
[10:13] Frieren
    I probably didn't need that collection
    of handsome poses after all.
[10:17] Frieren
    I wasted my memory.
[10:20] Voll
    Do you remember that hero's face?
[10:24] Frieren
    Of course I do.
[10:26] Voll
    And his voice?
[10:30] Frieren
    Don't insult me.
[10:32] Frieren
    I remember everything.
[10:34] Frieren
    Himmel is the reason I decided
    I'd get to know people.
[10:38] Frieren
    Like your reason for defending this village,
[10:42] Frieren
    it's important to me.
[10:45] Voll
    I see. A reason, huh?
[10:50] Voll
    I can't remember anymore.
[10:54] Voll
    Not her face, nor her voice, nor her eyes.
[11:00] Voll
    But I continue defending this village
    for an important something.
[11:10] Frieren
    You're quite the jokester, Old Man Voll.
[11:15] Voll
    By the way, where are you headed?
[11:20] Frieren
    We're heading to Aureole,
    the land where souls rest.
[11:25] Voll
    Where is that?
[11:27] Frieren
    Ende, where the Demon King's castle is.
[11:31] Voll
    I see.
[11:34] Voll
    So you're finally off
    to defeat the Demon King.
[11:40] Voll
    I hope that brings peace to the land.
[11:49] Frieren
    Old Man Voll, the Demon King is...
[12:03] Voll
    What is it?
[12:06] Frieren
    I'll carry your memory into the future, too.
[12:15] Voll
    I wouldn't mind that.
[12:22] Voll
    I'm glad I got to see you
    at the end of my life.
[12:26] Frieren
    You said the same thing eighty years ago.
[12:39] Frieren
    Goodbye, Old Man Voll. Take care.
[12:44] Voll
    Frieren.
[12:47] Voll
    I dreamed of my wife.
[12:50] Frieren
    I see.
[12:52] Voll
    Maybe it's because you and I
    reminisced about the past.
[12:59] Frieren
    See you later.
SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,
    on Rohr Road, located in the northern lands
[13:23] Frieren
    Were you asking him something?
[13:24] Sein
    I'm looking for someone.
[13:28] Sein
    You remember why I'm on
    this journey, don't you?
[13:32] Stark
    Isn't it to travel with a sexy older woman?
[13:36] Sein
    That's important, too.
[13:40] Sein
    But this is the goal of my journey.
[13:43] Sein
    To reunite with my friend
    who departed ten years ago.
[13:47] Frieren
    Oh, right.
[13:50] Stark
    A photo? You don't see those often.
[13:54] Sein
    It was taken by a mage who visited
    my village a long time ago.
[13:59] Frieren
    Have you figured out where he went?
[14:01] Sein
    We've been traveling along major
    roads in the northern lands.
[14:06] Sein
    Along the way, we've met
    people who have seen him.
[14:09] Sein
    We can probably keep heading north.
[14:15] Stark
    That was ten years ago, right?
[14:17] Stark
    I'm surprised anyone remembers seeing him.
[14:19] Sein
    He has a unique name.
[14:22] Sein
    It leaves a strong impression.
[14:24] Stark
    What's his name?
[14:26] Sein
    Gorilla Warrior.
[14:32] Stark
    Yeah, okay.
[14:34] Stark
    So what's his real name?
[14:38] Sein
    His real name?
[14:39] Stark
    Are you sure you guys were best friends?
[14:41] Sein
    Everyone in the village always
    called him Gorilla Warrior.
[14:45] Sein
    Actually, he made them call him that.
[14:48] Stark
    How does that even happen?
[14:52] Sein
    By the way, I'm Goatee Priest.
[14:54] Stark
    No one asked.
[14:56] Frieren
    Did people call you that even
    before you could grow a goatee?
[14:59] Fern
    Are we still talking about this?
[15:02] Sein
    Either way, it's good enough if they
    recognize the name Gorilla Warrior.
[15:06] Sein
    He'd definitely be calling himself that.
[15:10] Stark
    Sounds like a weird guy.
[15:11] Sein
    Yeah. He's a weird guy.
[15:22] Frieren
    Once we cross this canyon
    and walk for about a week,
[15:26] Frieren
    we'll finally be in the
    magical city of Äußerst.
[15:30] Fern
    This really has been a long journey.
[15:33] Frieren
    What are you looking at me for?
[15:35] Frieren
    I didn't do anything wrong this time.
[15:39] Sein
    Can we stop by a village first?
[15:42] Sein
    The road branches here.
[15:45] Frieren
    Sure. We'd like to rest, too.
[15:52] Sein
    Ten years ago, did someone who called
    himself "Gorilla" come this way?
[15:57] Stark
    That's a wild question.
[15:59] Villager B
    Ah, you must mean Mr. Gorilla Warrior.
[16:02] Stark
    Wow, he knows who that is.
[16:03] Villager B
    I remember him, since he
    left a strong impression.
[16:07] Villager B
    He defeated a monster that
    appeared near the village.
[16:10] Sein
    Do you know which way he headed after that?
[16:13] Villager B
    I'm not sure...
[16:16] Villager B
    Oh!
[16:17] Villager B
    Mr. Gorilla seemed close with the stubborn
    old woman who lives on the plateau.
[16:22] Villager B
    You should ask her.
[16:24] Stark
    "Stubborn old woman"?
    That's quite the nickname.
[16:28] Stubborn
    I'm a stubborn old woman, you see.
[16:31] Stubborn
    I'm not telling you for free.
[16:34] Stark
    She even calls herself stubborn.
[16:36] Sein
    What should we do?
[16:42] Stubborn
    You'll perform several tasks for me.
[16:46] Stubborn
    First, deliver this letter to Nagel,
    a blacksmith in the neighboring town.
[16:55] Sein
    It's just a simple errand.
[16:57] Freiren
    It reminds me of my journey with Himmel.
[17:00] Fern
    You did things like this?
[17:03] Frieren
    Helping people by running errands
    was a daily occurrence.
[17:07] Frieren
    And it always turned into troublesome
    searches or monster hunts.
[17:14] Stark
    Don't jinx us.
[17:17] Frieren
    In any case, let's do what we can
    to get her to open up to us.
[17:47] Sein
    This old woman just refuses to open up.
[17:51] Stark
    They don't call her stubborn for nothing.
[17:54] Frieren
    Sorry. Himmel or Heiter could've
    gotten her to open up in half a day.
[18:00] Fern
    But our party only has
    socially awkward members.
[18:07] Stubborn
    This is the last one.
[18:09] Stubborn
    Polish the heroes' statue in the canyon.
[18:14] Stubborn
    Come with me. I'll show you the way.
[18:17] Frieren
    What heroes' statue?
[18:19] Stubborn
    It's a stone statue of the heroes said
    to have saved the world a long time ago.
[18:25] Stubborn
    That's all I know.
[18:29] Stubborn
    They're forgotten heroes.
    No one even knows their names.
[18:33] Stubborn
    The village has been looking
    after it for generations.
[18:36] Sein
    Forgotten heroes, huh?
[18:38] Stubborn
    By the way, you're Goatee Priest,
    aren't you?
[18:43] Sein
    How'd you know?
[18:49] Stubborn
    We're here.
[18:52] Frieren
    A priest and a warrior.
[18:55] Frieren
    It's pretty old.
[18:57] Fern
    They kind of look like Mr. Sein
    and Mr. Gorilla.
[19:01] Frieren
    I think I recognize the warrior.
[19:06] Frieren
    It's Kraft.
[19:08] Stark
    You're right.
[19:10] Fern
    It looks just like him.
[19:15] Frieren
    Shall we get started?
[19:23] Frieren
    Sein?
[19:24] Sein
    I see.
[19:25] Sein
    So this person's name is Kraft.
[19:29] Sein
    What about this one?
[19:30] Frieren
    I don't know.
[19:33] Sein
    I see.
[19:38] (Flashback) Heiter
    What's this statue?
[19:40] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    Don't they look just like us?
[19:43] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    According to the chief,
    they're ancient heroes.
[19:47] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    But nobody even remembers their names.
[19:50] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    We won't end up like that.
[19:52] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    I refuse to be forgotten.
[19:56] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    I'm going to become
    an unforgettable hero like Himmel.
[20:02] (Flashback) Heiter
    Even the greatest heroes
    are forgotten someday.
[20:07] (Flashback) Heiter
    Even Himmel, who defeated the
    Demon King, will be no exception.
[20:13] (Flashback) Young Sein
    I guess you're right. It's impossible.
[20:21] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    You think I could get this big
    if I worked out hard enough?
[20:26] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    Gorilla Warrior.
[20:28] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    From now on, that's my name.
[20:33] (Flashback) Young Sein
    Why?
[20:35] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    If I want to become an unforgettable hero,
    then I need a memorable name.
[20:43] (Flashback) Heiter
    You're right.
[20:46] (Flashback) Heiter
    Then your name is Goatee Priest.
[20:53] (Flashback) Young Gorilla
    That's a great name.
[20:56] (Flashback) Heiter
    I'm sure a goatee would look good on you.
[21:05] Sein
    We're finally done.
[21:07] Sein
    That was a lot of work.
[21:09] Frieren
    We could've used magic if it
    were a bronze statue.
[21:12] Stubborn
    I asked Gorilla to polish it, too,
[21:16] Stubborn
    but he didn't do as good a job.
[21:20] Sein
    His only strength is fighting.
[21:23] Stubborn
    But his name sure was memorable.
[21:29] Stubborn
    Gorilla talked about you a lot.
[21:34] Stubborn
    He said the two of you would become heroes
    whose names would be remembered forever.
[22:00] Frieren
    Did you figure out where Gorilla went?
[22:04] Sein
    Tür.
[22:06] Sein
    It's a trading city in the middle
    of the northern lands.
[22:09] Frieren
    That's a long ways east from here.
[22:12] Frieren
    It's in the opposite
    direction from Äußerst.
[22:15] Sein
    Yeah.
[22:21] Sein
    What am I going to do?
[23:56] Sein
    Join me in the other room, one at a time.
[23:56] Villager
    Make yourselves at home.
[23:57] Stark
    Yeah, it's all my fault.
[23:58] Frieren
    Because mediating is a priest's job.
[23:59] Heiter
    The medicine is ready.
[24:00] Fern
    You're embarrassing me.
[24:01] Himmel
    I'm pretty handsome when
    I'm being considerate, aren't I?
[24:02] Sein
    I guess it's not so bad.
SIGN    Episode 17
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Take Care
[24:04] Sein
    Take care, then.
