Frieren Beyond Journeys End — Chapter 71

Welcome back to another captivating chapter of Frieren_ Beyond Journey's End, Volume 8 Chapter 71! Readers had a lot to say, especially about the intense new "slashing" elements. It seems this particular combat style evoked some *strong* reactions, with a few playful (or perhaps traumatized!) comparisons to certain infamous characters from *other* manga, like Sukuna. 😬

A major talking point was the incredible thematic depth, particularly the contrast between the lies of demons and the comforting fibs of humans. Many were deeply moved by how the chapter portrayed deceit — from a demon's cruel exploitation to a human's compassionate fabrication to bring comfort in a dying man's final moments. It truly hit different! 💔

Fans were also thrilled to see the return of the "intriguing" Methode ✨, though not all opinions were harmonious; one reader notably expressed their strong dislike for male tsunderes. And as usual, the casual, heartbreaking reality of villages wiped out by demons left a lingering sadness. Oh, and for some, it seems windows might just be doors after all? 🤔
