Sorry, just making a lame joke! I never saw the mimic gag as fanservice, myself. I guess Frieren's butt is sticking out but I saw it as comical rather than titillating--made me think of a common trope where someone will get beat up and they'll be faceplanted but with their butt sticking way up in the air which looks very silly. Totally agree with the rest, though.
Probably a large reason yes, although it still has its own form of fan service
Fern pouts are the most powerful form of fanservice known to man
i was referring more to the mimic running "gag" and the not-so-subtle butt and boob shots, and a lot of the female characters' outfits in the 2nd arc
