In a surprising combination of art and technology, an illustration created by artificial intelligence (AI) has attracted a lot of attention from netizens when it depicts Frieren – the main character of Sousou. no Frieren (Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End ).
Although Frieren has a youthful appearance, she is an elf with an extremely long life, a witch who has existed for more than a thousand years in the “Sousou no Frieren” universe.
The AI recreated a scene in the anime, which is the moment Frieren opened the chest. Even though she has the ability to identify magic, she is determined to open the chests because she has a strong belief that they contain magic books. Her ability to detect magical auras around closed chests did not save her from falling into the trap called “chest”.
The interesting thing about this chest turns out to be a Mimic, a typical creature in role-playing games. It is said to be a creature that lives in a chest and attacks those who try to open it.
The image above only shows Frieren’s lower body, while her upper body is trapped inside a chest with a special “Anazon” inscription. The choice of this detail has confused viewers, creating many speculations and theories on social networks.
In fact, long before the anime came out, a fan compiled all the moments when Frieren found himself in situations like this.
The moment Frieren opens the chest is extremely funny in the anime.
AI’s illustration created a wave of comments and memes on social networks, receiving more than 2.3 million interactions. Fans have praised the creativity of artificial intelligence in capturing such a famous scene from the Sousou no Frieren series.
