I want to repost an interesting comment I saw on Youtube here: "I kinda love the dynamic between Serie and Frieren. They are both each other’s opposites but also each other’s mirrors. I think the reason they hate each other is deeper than just philosophical differences, I think they remind each other of aspects of themselves that neither of them are willing to acknowledge. Serie is martial, she believe magic should belong to a privileged few who seek to prove their prowess through challenging each other. Frieren on the other hand believes magic should exist for magic’s sake, that everyone should practice it and enjoy it merely because it’s fun and beautiful. They have such opposing world views and yet…Why is the warrior, the MARTIAL mage Serie…the one who’s title is “the living Grimoire”, and the carefree, “magic for the sake of magic” Frieren is the one who’s titled “the slayer”. For someone who’s supposed to only see magic as a weapon of war, Serie is the one who spends more time teaching people magic than Frieren. For someone who thinks magic should be enjoyed for the sake of learning, Frieren spends more time killing demons than Serie does. Serie claims magic should be open to a select few, yet Serie has FAR more apprentices than Frieren and even allows ANYONE to apply for the exams. Whereas Frieren only ever takes on ONE apprentice, and one whose caliber is far above that of any Serie has ever trained in terms of potential. An apprentice by the way, who’s quickly earning a reputation for being a remarkably dangerous duelist. For all their willingness to criticize one another’s beliefs, they are each living lives closer to the other’s ideals"
