The main event was Frieren’s reunion with Methode and Genau, Read my thoughts on Frieren Season 2 episode 6 (cumulatively, ep 34).

The first half of Frieren season 2 episode 5 was about a dwarf in search of the legendary Boshaft alcohol. The second half was about Frieren’s debt.

Despite finding this episode fairly entertaining, I didn’t have as much to say about it compared to previous installments. Anyway, here are my notes…

This installment was rather slow-paced and uneventful. I don’t say “boring” because I love these characters and their interactions even when there’s little to no action.

This installment was primarily focused on world-building. In the first half, we learned about the Hero of the South. In the second half, there was an encounter with a Demon.

This opening episode of Frieren’s second season was excellent. The storytelling, visuals, music, and character writing were all solid. I also loved the new opening and ending songs.
