There are so many things about this anime that I enjoy, but the biggest part of this show that I really appreciate is the background information given to us to really chew on.

Seeing Frieren's past battles with her old adventure group was another look into why she doesn't seem scared about having to fight her own replica. She's excited because she's been there and it seems like this moment is bringing her joy. The other big part of her joy is seeing Flamme's wish come true. Magic is being used more freely, and Frieren's student Fern is an example of that.

The moment Fern killed Frieren's replica was such a precious moment. Look at Frieren's smile!

Love the scene between Serie and Frieren, one of my favorites of first season. Serie is a major Tsundere. She talks harsh and that she train Flamme in a whim but 2 seconds later she start to remeber her with love, care and admiration even if she doesn't admit it. The animation of the figth is amazing. The animators of Madhouse Studio went all the way.

There’s a lot of Slander for my girl Serie in this episode. Not from you but the masses and some misunderstandings. First, Serie is severely hurt that her adopted daughter Flamme has died. You cannot tell from her words but you can see through her body language. At 24:53 she visibly winces when she hears about her death. After that, she composes herself and becomes tsundere again. At 27:30 she has a somber expression when the gravity of Flamme’s death hit her. Then she takes Frieren, the only one who she can talk to about Flamme, to reminisce. Lastly, Serie created the Continental Magic Association (CMA) only about 50 years ago or so. She must have been mourning Flamme for all this time. She initially denied Flamme’s request to train Imperial mages because she won’t teach anyone without talent. I believe the CMA is a compromise, now she will weed out the talented ones from the untalented, hence 1st class mages have the most talent and she will be in charge of them. I think it’s her way of honoring Flamme in a way that doesn’t compromise who she is, but that’s just my opinion. As far as the not detecting mana, they said it’s a split mili second that Frieren stops detecting while casting and it’s a rookie mistake. Most mages keep detecting mana and/or it gets fixed but she never bothered fixing it. This is how Fern was able to hide her mana from Frieren during the replica fight. LASTLY, did you see an evaporating Frieren replica or a dead body in this episode? Why are we assuming Fern won with 1 blast of zoltrack with the equivalent mana and skills as Frieren? Guess we’ll find out next episode.

The replicas are only perfect copies in some respects. Their motivations are the Spiegel's and not those of the candidates. It's as if the reflexes/synapses of the candidates have been copied to access magic, cast their spells, and fight but Spiegel is telling them where to go in order to protect itself. This why I don't think a mimic would work to distract betaRen

Serie needs to talk to Sein: "People only know how you feel if you tell them". I know Frieren said this too but she won't listen to Frieren

Remember how was Frieren with her party, saying that their adventure was "a mere ten years" and that she will see them in the next meteor shower, fifty years after. She also looked like she didn't care for her friends, but we all know now, that it wasn't true at all, she is full of regret now to haven not know Himmel better, but always smiling when she remember something about him. Serie is the same, but she haven't had enough humans interactions yet, she seem like the type to sit on her throne and wait all day for someone to come, she don't go outside touching grass so to say lol (Even if this is exactly what she do with Frieren in this episode i know). But i can see her point, even if i don' agree with it, if something special become usual, it loose sense and value in a way, like how having a car was something special when they were just invented, or having a computer back in day (saying it with an old woman voice), but now, everyone can have a car or a computer, it's nothing special, more close to us, when the first smartphone was introduced, now it's not having one that is special. That is the evolution of mankind and the acceleration of technologie/science. But in my opinion, and as an artist, sharing the knowledge is something that should be celebrated and becoming global, everyone should be able to learn what they want to learn, especially if they are passionate about it.

As Ray already kinda covered there's additional layers & subtlety to Serie's character beyond what you've observed so far, I won't say more to avoid any potential spoilers, but you will learn more about her character & personality as the story progresses. Also where the episode ended didn't show the end of a fight per say, or even the damage that Fern had inflicted, so you might've extrapolated and spoken too soon. I thought between watching this and Apothecary Diaries that you would've partly gotten out of the habit of jumping to quick conclusions and character judgements by now. :P The brief moment that Frieren stops detecting mana whenever she's casting is a flaw that beginner mages sometimes suffer from as they struggle to multi-task, but they typically get better and eliminate this weakness as their abilities mature. Basically it's like a tiny gap in her personal sensors/magical radar where she's blind to the actions of other magic users. All her other abilities are at such an elite level though that they partly cover up this flaw and only really talented mages might be able to cast quickly enough to get through this chink in Frieren's metaphorical armour. And as we've observed in the fight with the demon emissary using blood magic, as well as being mentioned more than once by Frieren, one of Fern's areas where she surpasses her is in how quickly she can cast spells in combat.

Serie puts up a good front, but don't be fooled. She's not nearly as uncaring as she seems.
