Bro, Frieren is the embodiment of “they were flirting with me and I fumbled but didn’t realize til decades later”

[Lithiel]

And that’s why he never got married- he already was, in his own heart. He was content to know she may figure it out someday, maybe not in his lifetime, but someday. He loved her as exactly who she was, a free spirit, kinda clueless- even if she did know- he’d not want her to change herself for him either. Because he fell in love with the woman she was. In all her flawed glory.
He was happy and content knowing they had a bond at all in any shape or form. I hope when her journey is done- she finally gets to speak to him and tell him everything she’s learned in the time since they last spoke.

She then realized, after almost a century, that she's married

Years later
Frieren: I realised too little too late...

[shriraam]

I'm guessing Himmel never married in his lifetime. This is so sad for him but it's now even more painful to Frieren knowing that she can never live the life she wishes she'd lived with him.

"Poetic" when Himmel kneel before Frieren you see the background has a clock meaning "Time" just stands in the way of their love

[KanohiVahi]

One of the most beautiful yet heartbreaking moments in the story. I saw in a comment for another video that the clock tower standing between them when Himmel put the ring in her finger could be symbolizing how time is the thing standing between their love ;__; It destroyed me..

To Frieren, Himmel is part of her Journey. But for Himmel, Frieren was his Journey.

[garrettviewegh]

That’s the hidden Faustian bargain of immortality. It’s a curse in the guise of a gift. Almost every story focusing on this topic, conveys this message. Friren seems so apathetic and numb to life and emotions, because she’s become jaded. She’s seen and done everything all ready. But, she takes her bear immortal life for granted. She’s spent centuries existing. But only now is she learning to live, and what that means. Gradually, she’s learning what it means to be human. Because of the curse of immortality, she let life’s joys and wonders pass her by. Only regretting what she’d lost or hadn’t done, years later. She’s learning to morn, leaning to yearn, to cherish.

Married in all but name ... so beautiful ❤

[justinpehala]

God and having the clock tower in between them to represent the vast amount of time between 😢

[elyssa_]

loved the reaction. i literally had the same expression on my face when i watched the episode

[NicoSleepyLeen]

THAT ENDING ASK IF I'M ALRIGHT, I'M NOT

[azhar]

😅Himmel was indeed married, unofficially, to Frieren…

[AshtailFoxclaw]

This is the most bitter, yet sweetest moment I tear up every time, but happy tears. His love feels SO true.

[ancorey]

I already miss this show. I'm not particularly religious, but I'm praying for a second season.

This is a particularly rare breed of special in the anime world. Very few shows have touched me as this show has. Anime of the decade. That doesn't take away from other shows but signifies how unique this was.

[alfonsobiggers]

Heartbreaking, yet utterly beautiful...
Such is love through time.

[riverpubby]

Man. I have this buddy who I’ve known for five years now (no, this isn’t that kind of story, we both have other partners 😂😂) but realizing how close him and I are after half the time Himmel and Frieren travelled together, it makes you realize just how much time he had to grow to love her, enough that after those ten years he never wanted everyone else. Ten years seems like such a small time on paper, but to him it was everything. *She* was everything.

[JVarley]

The Frieren drinking game is taking a shot every time she remembers a time she fumbled Himmel

[Jjrmtv]

this is how storytelling is done folks. when you have an anime that makes men tear up, it means everything
