Based on Kanehito Yamada’s light novel, the anime is mostly quite serene to watch. However, with the upcoming Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End episode 9, fans are in for an intense, action-packed episode. This episode will likely feature a villain whose presence has only been hinted at until this point in the series. We will get an insight into Frieren’s enigmatic past as well as the reasons behind her hatred towards the villains.
Nakanome Takashi, the animation producer of Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, posted on their X (formerly Twitter) profile regarding the upcoming episode. He said, “The episodes that follow from episode 9 are really worth watching, and there is no doubt that you will be blown away by episode 9.” He also claimed that the Aura arc is packed with spectacular episodes, so fans should “look forward to it and don’t miss it.”
Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End episode 9 release date & time
Episode 9 of Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End will be released in Japan at 11 p.m. JST on Friday, November 3, 2023. It will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll on November 3 at 8 a.m. PDT, 10 a.m. CT, and 12 p.m. EST. For Frieren fans in the UK, the episode will be released at 5 a.m. BST.
The previous episode concluded with an abrupt cliffhanger, which brings us to episode 9, which will likely feature two major fights. Fern and Stark will be going against the Demon envoys. The battle will be rather intense since Fern and Stark are underdogs, and demons will likely be able to ambush them using Lugner’s blood magic. The episode will also feature a simultaneous fight between Frieren and Aura. Considering how strong Frieren is, the circumstances of the battle will be quite different. All in all, the next episode will be a blast for the viewers!
