In Episode 30, "The Hero of the South," Frieren and her companions arrive at a new castle town and are invited to a dinner party by the lord, Graf Dach (CV: Kousuke Kobayashi). However, faced with the lavish meal, Frieren displays a dejected expression, and Fern (CV: Kana Ichinose) murmurs inwardly, "She looks so reluctant..."

The truth is, Frieren had been given unreasonable demands by this lord's family in the past, and she was reluctant to get involved with them.

Online reactions to Frieren's reluctant face were enthusiastic, with comments like "Her reluctant face makes me crack up," "It's so addictive (lol)," "Her bad mood is showing on her face (lol)," and "I love dejected Frieren."

The anime "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" is based on the manga of the same name, which is currently serialized in "Weekly Shonen Sunday," with story by Kanehito Yamada and art by Tsukasa Abe.
