Fans are about to see more of the human warrior, Stark, in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Episode 6 after joining Frieren and Fern on their journey in the land where the souls rest. The anime has released a new set of stills and the upcoming episode's official synopsis, revealing the major role Eisen’s apprentice will play next.
Frieren is one of the most anticipated anime series this year, and it’s easy to see why. Based on the manga of the same name written by Kanehito Yamada and illustrated by Tsukasa Abe, the anime is now receiving positive reviews for its simple yet deep storyline, character designs, and great animation. After premiering with a two-hour special on September 29, Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Episode 6 is almost here.
The anime’s official website has given a first look at the sixth episode, featuring a solo preview of Stark as he stands amid the forest with his axe at his back. The next stills give a glimpse of Frieren as she looks in the middle of nowhere and the Crimson Mirror Dragon that they’re about to fight to provide the town of Riegel Canyon the peace it badly needs.
The preview also sees Fern looking at Stark as they seem to be in a busy city. And for the final still, a get-together between Frieren, Eisen, Heither, and Himmel is seen.

What will happen in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Episode 6?
After being praised as the hero of Riegel Canyon following his face-off with the Crimson Mirror Dragon, Stark has revealed himself as a coward to Frieren. However, the elf still manages to see Stark's powerful ability and asks him to defeat the beast together.
However, though Stark is strong enough to cut the boulders, he can’t control his hands from shaking. As he seems to fear the task, it’s a question of whether he will join Frieren to defeat the Crimson Mirror Dragon on the battlefield.
