It does what not many anime tend to do, which is, to show religion and deity in a positive light. I find this to be really refreshing, honestly. Because in so many anime and jrpg's, I see the continuous notion of "Let's kill god!" or "I'm good enough on my own without some deity." or something to that effect.

And Frieren is one of the rare cases of anime that actually respects religion. Not the only one, mind you, but one of the few that I've seen. And it's just one more thing that sets it apart from other anime 👍

And I hope that trend continues throughout the series, because I know often times, anime and games like to pull the "Oh, looks like God was actually evil this whole time!" trope, but that doesn't seem like Frieren's style, so I highly doubt it'll go that route, lol.

I have two theories about the hero's sword and who the hero is. My first one is the obvious guess that Stark will be the hero. But another part of me feels like that's just too obvious. My other theory, is that the prophecy of the hero's sword has already passed, and that Kraft was the hero that used the sword to save the world.

aging so hard was having that demon horn? how come he completely turned from a young guy to a babushka while the priest barely aged.
