Frieren: Beyond Journey's End episode 26 recap

Picking up the events from episode 25, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End episode 26 opens with Frieren and Fern taking on the former's clone. Elsewhere, the mages strategize to keep the other clones from reaching the dungeon's depths.

As Methode mentions, if the clones reach the depths, then they won't have any chance of beating the dungeon. The mages reveal their weaknesses to each other and also choose the opponents they would find easier to battle.

Methode senses the clones' location to the mages. Unfortunately, Richter and Lawine get defeated by Sense's clone as it sneaks up on them. Bleeding profusely, they break their bottles and forfeit from the exam. Methode and Denken realize that Sense's clone is the biggest threat.

At that moment, Ubel arrives, and she tells them that she will battle the clone. The episode reveals through a flashback that Ubel can slice through anything as long as she can visualize it.

That is how she killed a mage (sliced him in half) with impenetrable defense at the Third Class Mage Selection Exam two years earlier. Riding on immense conviction, the mage easily defeats Sense's clone and makes the other mages' job easier.

After that, the episode shows Wirbel, Denken, and Methode taking on the remaining clones. While Wirbel's team battles Denken's imitation, Methode fights Fern's clone. Elsewhere, Fern and Frieren are seen engaged in combat against the elven mage's clone.

Utilizing their strategy, they corner the clone, and then Fern swoops in front of it to land a powerful Zoltraak. However, she gets overwhelmed by a never-seen-before attack.

Having anticipated that move, Frieren gets behind her clone. She then lands a formidable spell on the clone to obliterate its existence. Later, the mage duo destroys the treasure chest, which ends the second trial of The First Class Mage Exam.

What to expect from Frieren: Beyond Journey's End episode 27? (Speculative)

Considering the latest installment adapted chapters 54 and 55 from Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe's manga series, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Episode 27 will likely cover the following two chapters.

In other words, fans can expect the episode to be a less action-heavy one. Rather than action, the episode will delve into the aftermath of the second test of the First Class Mage Selection Exam.

At the same time, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Episode 27 may show the beginning of the third trial, which will be conducted by none other than the ancient mage Serie.
