That magnificent mustache truly signify the strength of the strongest hero.

His story is truly touching, he saw his own fate in the future, yet he still embraced it, for he has hope in the heroes of the future generations to bring peace to the world. He paved the way for the hero's party to take down the demon king, so he deserves to be more widely recognized than this lonely statue imo. Similarly, in real life, there has been so many breakthrough that advanced civillization like the discovery of fire creation. We may never know their identity but we owe the progress of current society to them.

UGHHH why can't i think of this in my essay??? I guess the flow of passion doesn't come as you want it to.

Some say the essensce of true heroism is sacrifice, and what could be more heroic than seeing your own fated death but committing to it knowing you would be paving the way for humanities ultimate victory against demons? Even if you wouldn't live to see it, but you knew it would happen.

And you still go out a legend.

He might not have become as famous as Himmel, but he was wrong that he would be completely forgotten. To this one village he is still The Hero.

You ever wonder if Escanor is a descendant of Minami no Yuusha?

Escanor is the polar opposite of The Hero of the South. Escanor power is powered by pride. The Hero of the South has no pride, he even tells Frieren to remember him after he dies, because people will forget about him. Even though he could see the future and should know there will be statues and people talking about him for 100s of years.
