In the first half of the episode, Frieren and company are hired to once again polish a hero’s statue. Naturally, we assume that it’s another statue of Himmel. After all, they did go on a 10-year journey, and Himmel saved a whole lot of people. It just makes sense. At the same time, however, I can’t help but wonder if they ever failed, and if they did, how often? That’s probably not the sort of thing Frieren wants to remember, but failures due tend to feel more… hm, vibrant in our memories? Maybe that’s not the right way to phrase it. Still, it might be a nice change of pace to see that the party doesn’t always succeed. So far, most of their “failures” have had a positive spin. For instance, them running away from danger in last week’s episode. Or when Himmel failed to pull out the hero’s sword. The only time I feel like they’ve truly failed was when they allowed that demon child to survive a little longer than necessary and thus take an extra life.
