Guide › Anime › Frieren: Beyond Journey's End › Frieren
Frieren: Beyond Journey's End follows Frieren, an elf mage who once helped a party of four heroes defeat the Demon King. Elves live for more than a thousand years, so that ten-year quest felt short to her, and only when the hero Himmel dies of old age does she realise how little she knew her companions. She sets out again, heading north with her apprentice Fern and the young warrior Stark. This page covers 17 characters in four groups: the current party, the old Hero Party seen in flashbacks, the mages met during the first-class mage exam of the Continental Magic Association, and the legendary mages and demons who shape the world. Each description stays at the point where the character is first introduced, so nothing is spoiled.
Frieren is an elf mage more than a thousand years old and a former member of Himmel's Hero Party. Demons call her Frieren the Slayer because she has defeated more of them than any mage in history. She is calm and unhurried, and she tends to treat ten years as a short time. Her new journey is a way of understanding the humans she travelled with. Japanese voice: Atsumi Tanezaki.
Fern is a young human mage and Frieren's apprentice. Heiter took her in as a war orphan and raised her, then arranged for Frieren to teach her magic. She learns fast: in about four years she reached a level most mages need ten years for. She is the second mage of the party and a strong attacker for her age. Japanese voice: Kana Ichinose; Brazilian dub: Maria Clara Rosis.
Stark is a young warrior raised and trained by Eisen, who recommends him to Frieren in his place. He is timid and doubts himself, yet he is strong and very loyal once he commits to the group. He becomes the party's frontline fighter, the one who stands between the mages and the monsters. His friendly bickering with Fern is part of daily life on the road. Japanese voice: Chiaki Kobayashi.
Himmel is the hero who led the party that defeated the Demon King, and the man whose funeral opens the story. He calls himself handsome without any shame, and in flashbacks he shows up again and again as a kind, generous leader who looked after Frieren. A promise he made to her after they watched a meteor shower together is one of the reasons she travels again. Japanese voice: Nobuhiko Okamoto.
Übel is a mage taking the first-class exam. Her signature spell is an invisible cutting magic that slices through almost anything she believes can be cut, which makes her very hard to predict. She is relaxed, a little unsettling and openly enjoys fighting. During the exam she becomes one of Fern's and Frieren's most talked-about rivals. Japanese voice: Ikumi Hasegawa.
Denken is an elderly second-class mage with a long career in the imperial court and the army. He enters the first-class exam as one of its most experienced candidates and is ready to challenge Frieren herself. Years as a court magician have made him shrewd and practical, and he reads a fight as carefully as he reads people. He leads a team with Laufen and Richter. Japanese voice: Jiro Saito.
Wirbel is a second-class mage and captain of the Northern Magic Corps. He has far more real combat experience than most of the other candidates and enters the first-class exam to earn the top rank. He approaches the tests like a mission, is blunt and focused on results, and leads his own team through the early stages. Japanese voice: Kishō Taniyama.
Flamme is a legendary human mage who lived more than a thousand years before the story. She was the apprentice of the elf Serie, and later she became Frieren's own teacher. In flashbacks she teaches Frieren her spells and one lasting lesson: hide how strong you really are. Much of how Frieren fights and thinks about magic traces back to her. Japanese voice: Atsuko Tanaka.
Serie is an ancient elf mage and the teacher of Flamme. About fifty years before the story she founded the Continental Magic Association to train elite mages, and she still judges first-class candidates in person, relying on instinct rather than written tests. She is proud, blunt and hard to impress, and her view of magic is very different from Frieren's. Japanese voice: Mariya Ise.
Heiter was the priest of the Hero Party, a man who loved his drink as much as his prayers. After the quest ended he stayed in a quiet town, found a war orphan named Fern and raised her as his own. When Frieren visits him years later, he asks her to take Fern as an apprentice. He appears mostly in flashbacks and early episodes. Japanese voice: Hiroki Tōchi.
Eisen is the dwarf warrior of the Hero Party, the fighter who stood at the front during the quest. Dwarves live longer than humans, but by the time the story starts he has grown old and past his prime. When Frieren asks him to travel with her, he declines and recommends his own pupil, Stark, instead. Japanese voice: Yōji Ueda.
Sein is a priest from a small northern village where his older brother runs the church. He is gifted at healing magic but has a few bad habits, such as drinking and gambling. He joins Frieren's party for part of the journey while looking for his childhood best friend, who left years ago to become an adventurer. He often acts as the older voice of reason among the three young travellers. Japanese voice: Yuichi Nakamura.
Land is a quiet, cautious mage who takes part in the first-class exam on the same team as Fern and Übel. He specialises in creating copies of himself that can act on their own. He keeps his distance from others and rarely says more than he needs to, which makes him a sharp contrast with his loud teammate. Japanese voice: Shohei Komatsu.
Methode is a battle-hardened mage who takes the first-class exam and forms a team with Renge and Ton for the first stage. She knows a wide range of spells, including binding and mind magic, and she has a rare talent for healing. Smart and talented, she also has an open soft spot for cute kids, which colours how she treats the youngest people she meets. Japanese voice: Reina Ueda.
Kanne is a timid third-class mage whose magic controls water. She is placed on Frieren's team for the first stage of the exam, together with her childhood friend Lawine. The two argue often but know each other's moves well, and their pairing of water and ice is the core of that team's plan in the exam. Japanese voice: Azumi Waki.
Lawine is a third-class mage who turns water into ice. She joins Frieren's team for the first stage of the exam along with Kanne, whom she has known since childhood. She can be dismissive and quick to belittle her friend, but their teamwork depends on combining Kanne's water with her ice, and they work well together. Japanese voice: Sayumi Suzushiro.
Aura, known as Aura the Guillotine, is a demon and one of the Seven Sages of Destruction who served the Demon King. She uses a magic item called the Scales of Obedience to weigh her mana against an opponent's and turn the loser into a puppet. She is one of the first major demon threats Frieren's new party faces, and her arc shows how demons think. Japanese voice: Ayana Taketatsu.
