maybe it's shallow, but while i'm frustrated by how yuka behaves and outright slaps kouta i can't say i outright hate her because she and lucy probably have some of the better voice actresses for this show

Another promo image for the anime and the VAs! Seems Chalce will be a teacher, so maybe she'll be our Raifort equivalent for the anime if we don't get her showing up too? (Funny that Sidian is a student then, but I guess he's got the role of trying to keep Coral in-line.)

Masato Ohba, Sanae Kobayashi, Yu Hatanaka, and Eriko Matsui will voice Clavell, Geeta, Jacq, and Dendra respectively.

Oooh Anipoke_PR playing around with image crops again! We got news!!

All four characters got their VAs announced! I'll post each full image next and then the VAs.

VAs in order, using their japanese names first, dub names second:

Clavell, voiced by Mahito Ōba. Omodaka/Geeta, voiced by Sanae Kobayashi. Zinnia/Jacq, voiced by Tasuku Hatanaka. Kihada/Dendra, voiced by Eriko Matsui.

Feel free to correct the names if need be, I tried my best looking into the names and such.

Last week was utter hell, with a new class, a new schedule, and my sleep going out of whack. I'm still trying to readjust, and let me explain why I'm mentioning all of this. Almost nothing would have motivated me to get out of my zone and type this post except for Frieren. Frieren is one of my favorite manga series. If you've talked to me about anime/manga before, you would know this. So, ever since it was announced, it has been one of my most anticipated series. To add to that, Keiichirou Saitou was announced as the director. He's a great example of an upcoming new-gen director who has excelled in everything he's been a part of. From the beautiful and abstract EDs he created for The Executioner and Her Way of Life or Boogiepop, to the mesmerizing, dreamlike episodes he directed for Sonny Boy, and the expressive, now very popular Bocchi the Rock. He was a perfect choice as a director for a series like this, and let me tell you, he delivered fully.

Just from a quick glance, you can see how the show looks. Everything is eye-catching, making it almost hard to focus on one particular element because they all just look so good, and no, it's not just the chromatic aberration causing the lack of focus. The various departments responsible for compositing, the background, and the overall color design have done an outstanding job, creating a beautiful and cohesive piece of art. Seeing someone you might consider a less experienced director pulling off such a complete and harmonious experience is incredible. In terms of design, the whole show is aesthetically pleasing. It's not the experimental work you saw in Sonny Boy; it's going in a totally different direction, like a beautiful painting that should be framed on a wall.

It works very well when paired with, you know, how Frieren is as a story. The fantasy world they are in isn't an extremely unique one. You've seen it before; it's fairly typical in that sense. But that's not truly the point. The main focus is showing the day-to-day or year-to-year life of this immortal elf girl, Frieren, and how she views time, how she remembers her past. It's not an incredibly grand adventure, but with the small lens we have on these characters, it feels like a cherished moment, something that should be captured in a photo or painting. It's beautiful in a very simple way. It's not a series made for extremely large moments, I think Frieren has always been focused on a simpler view of life, much like a painting. The smaller details of such a straightforward approach are highlighted so well. The trees in the environment, the squirrels just moving around—there's so much life in each scene. It really all comes together for me like a piece of art.

The consistency lasts through all four episodes, and the staff distribution also seems fairly good, so I expect this to continue throughout the two cours. The pacing itself is perfect. I've really enjoyed how the story has been adapted to animation so far. I believe that nowadays, many anime series have fallen into the pitfalls of adapting things too quickly to capture the interest of newer viewers early on. However, the series composition for Frieren here is excellent.

This writeup might have been shorter than most people were expecting considering how amazing the anime adaptation is and how much I love the source material, but what can really be said about except just praising? I feel like even if you don't like the source material, the anime's execution is almost undeniably good. Additionally, as I said this past week has not been kind to me so my energy is a bit drained, at first I was planning to be more specific in my write up and make points more adhering to the specifics of each episode, but I didn't really have time for that. However, I will do my best to cover every Frieren episode weekly from now on. Make no mistake this is going to be my favorite series from this year.

[allen-san]

Seiyuu : Sanae Kobayashi / Ayumu Murase ( 2016 )

Prénom : Allen

Nom : Walker .

Origine : anglaise .

Taille : 1,68 m .

Poids: 58 kg .

Âge : environ 15 ans.

Anniversaire : inconnu .

Groupe sanguin : O .

Objet : il possède un golem nommé Timcanpy que lui a donné Marian Cross ( qui lui appartenait avant ) .

Particularité : Ses yeux sont de couleur Argent-gris-cendre .

Allen est rejeté très tôt par ses parents biologiques à cause de son bras gauche anormal. Il grandit dans la rue seul et effectue des petits boulots pour se nourrir. A 7 ans, il rencontre Mana Walker dans un cirque qui y travaille comme clown. Mana décide de s'occuper de lui et deviendra ainsi son père adoptif. Il le recueil un soir de Noël. Ils voyageront ensemble pendant 3 ans suite à quoi Mana disparaîtra d'un accident de carrosse .( Qui selon des rumeurs aurai était orchestré par le comte ).

Le Comte Millénaire lui demandera alors s'il souhaite ressusciter Mana. En acceptant, Allen le transforme en Akuma et Mana maudit Allen pour ce qu'il a fait. Il le blessera à l'œil gauche ce qui vaudra à Allen sa marque rouge (ainsi que la faculté de voir l'âme des Akuma par cet œil) , quelque jours plus tard ses cheveux devinrent blancs ( brun a l'origine ) à cause de sa tristesse( d'où le proverbe qui dit d'une personne triste ou inquiète qu'elle se fait des cheveux blancs .).

Son Innocence, jusque là inactive, réagira indépendamment de sa volonté et détruira Mana . Après ce tragique accident, il est récupéré par le Général Cross Marian auprès duquel il apprendra le travail d'exorciste. Au départ, il ne souhaite que libérer les Akuma mais au cours du temps il décidera que son bras gauche sert pour les Akuma et son bras droit pour les Humains.

Allen est le seul à pouvoir contrôler la première Arche. Auprès de Mana, il a appris les symboles qui composent la partition de piano, l'instrument étant le cœur de l'Arche pour la déplacer. Selon la prophétie d'Hevlaska, Allen est le « destructeur de temps » et serait le seul à pouvoir tuer le Comte Millénaire. Il est l'héritier de la mémoire du 14e Noah( nommais aussi le "Musicien" ) et risque de finir rongé par l'âme du 14e et devenir un Noah. Jusque là, Allen ne faisait jamais preuve d'une réelle agressivité ou envie de tuer envers les membres du clan Noah sachant qu'ils sont semblables aux humains. Road lui fera remarquer d'ailleurs lors de leur première rencontre qu'il finira seul et détesté de tous.

Du fait de son lien avec le 14e, il est surveillé par Howard Link.

Malédiction : L'Œil maudit

Son œil gauche est noir avec une Pupille formée de cercles concentriques rouges et lui permet de voir l'âme d'un Akuma et de les repérer pour les détruire. Plus tard , lors de sa rencontre avec Krory , celui-ci devient plus puissant car il permet aux exorcistes proches d'Allen de voir également l'âme de l'Akuma. L'œil peut se régénérer s'il est détruit.

Innocence : God Hand ( Main de Dieu ) .

Son Innocence réside dans son bras gauche et c'est une Innocence de type parasite (ou symbiotique), celle-ci est greffée à la place de son bras gauche depuis sa naissance, elle lui donne un aspect desséché et rouge sombre. Elle prend généralement la forme d'une énorme griffe argentée qui découpe de l'Akuma (technique de « Cross Grave »). Elle peut également se transformer en une épée d'énergie pure ou en canon gatling qui tire des balles d'énergie en rafale . Elle peut se modifier afin d'être uniquement constituée d'énergie pure. De plus, l'œil d'Allen évolue afin de pouvoir distinguer plus d'Akuma simultanément, plus vite et plus loin.

Évolution de l'Innocence : Crown Clown

Après avoir perdu son Innocence suite à sa rencontre avec Tyki Mikk, il pourra la récupérer car elle se sera implantée directement dans son cœur, chose inédite, même pour une arme de type symbiotique. Son taux de synchronisation est meilleur et son bras s'intégrera mieux à son corps. Lorsque nôtre héros dépasse les 100 % de synchronisation , son bras se transforme en une épée blanche et or semblable à celle du Comte
