@BookQueen imagine if the average human life expectancy is 75 years, he managed to hit 100. same as that.

Grandfather Voll is truly a great man, honouring his dead wife's wish for centuries is truly remarkable.

 

[TruestWeeaboo]

I love this story. It presents the idea of what sort of life an "immortal" person would have. Frieren is not immortal but you can grasp the concept; just watching your friends, family and teachers pass you by in what seems to be an instant to somebody with that long of a lifespan. Grandpa Voll's short story further shows this and damn, it really hits you.

 

[Lightbrand]

Stay strong Grandfather Voll

 

[VariousThrenodies]

God, it's honestly unbelievable that a story with all the surface-level trappings of a dime-a-dozen fantasy adventure manga can continually deliver emotional gut punches this hard again and again and again. What a story.

And when you realize too that Frieren won't forget their faces because Himmel put so much care into the statues...

 

[SuplexSensei]

One chapter where Frieren's feelings towards Himmel and the entire group were expressed by words with impeccable clarity...

 

[Angoldd]

Himmel was a genious in having all those statues of them built.
That way Frieren will always remember them.
Grandpa Voll's awesome, too.

 

[BakaTono]

Wait, was his wife Flamme? Rear profile looked like her

Depression: The Manga

 

[Gurgling]

Damnit, I didn't tear up until that last part, grandfather Voll I'm happy you dreamt of her.
