Cowardly or not, the only tactic that matters is the one that ends the battle with you alive and your enemy not! Concealing your mana seems like an incredibly useful deception tool that I’m surprised isn’t more common in the universe. Then again, it seems like a tactic exclusively meant to deal with demons, and they don’t seem like that common a threat (on the other hand, there is apparently an entire branch of study determined to reverse-engineering and improving demon made spells like Zoltraak, so who knows.)

Why is it so good.

1 000 000% better than manga.

I am glad I am alive to witness this episode.

what an intense battle. wow.

Every episode is better than the last one!

Frieren is a badass, trained her whole life just for this moment.

This episode was great, maybe even better than the already amazing manga.

I started this anime because I was bored and I expected nothing. Totally hooked now and very surprised it’s this good!
