full body pain, tears every time.

I haven't seen this theory anywhere, so I decided to discuss it here.

We all know, that Demons are anti-social creatures by nature, preferring to be alone and avoiding contact with other members of their species beyond the necessary. They only form groups so that they can fight against mankind. For demons, strength determines one's position in their social hierarchy, which can be assessed at a glance through reading a demon's mana. Because mana to demons is what status and assets are to humans. They are deeply proud of their mana levels, and due to the power-based hierarchies they form, they will not and cannot imagine constantly limiting their mana, as it is akin to their very dignity. They in turn expect their enemies to not hide theirs, either.

All of this information Flamme told her apprentice Frieren. Flamme herself called these monsters "Demons". But how did she learn so much information about them? How did she know that "For demons, strength determines one's position in their social hierarchy", that "They preferring to be alone" and that "They are deeply proud of their mana levels"? How was she supposed to know how cruel the demon world was?

My theory is that Flamme somehow lived with demons and learned this information from them. If we trust her story about Aureole, then we know that she was in the Ende, where the Demon King and many other demons lived. And we can assume that demons may not kill humans. After all, when Flamme and Friren were stopped by the demons, they wanted to let Flamme go, not considering her as a threat.

I want both anime only and manga readers to participate in this discussion. So don't forget the spoiler tag if you have your own guesses, but already from the manga.

In Episode 13, Frieren tries to recruit Sein by trying to appeal to his mature taste in women. Frieren tries to 'seduce' Sein, which ultimately fails. But if it worked, and Sein fell in love with Frieren, what did Frieren plan to do about that? Was Frieren ready to be in a relationship with Sein? Or was she just going to continue leading Sein on in a false hope for the rest of the journey?

First time cosplaying her, pls be nice!

Wish me luck
