I'm not sure if I like it... my sensei recommended it so I'll keep watching but, so far it hasn't been what I expected, which can be good.
A story that starts from the end of an adventure is quite rare so I'm excited to see what this anime is about.
P.s. I cried in the first chapter already so... looking good so far.

Wait, this is the first episode. Nothing happened, Frieren's character didn't change much from how she started out. I'm surprised this beat FMAB.
I'll try watching few more episodes, hopefully it gets better

Something about the comradery and sense of valuable life lessons instilled in this story drew me to watch this anime and I already think it may become a favorite!

Her name is frayren. They just killed the demon kind and allegedly tethered no spoils and are getting no government pension. Her life is going to be incomprehensibly long. They know what meteors are and they are shooting. She has planned out her next 100 years. Spell geometry. Still has ego even as old. He’s dusting memories. Forgotten spells in an unearthed Grimoire. Miscreant of the cloth.
Do you like magic? It’s decent. I don’t know what this story is going to be. Not quite hooked but I will give it time. Fantastic outro.

I like the overall feeling of the series, it plays out mostly like the script and visuals of a magical movie like The Hobbit, and doesn't feel scripted like your usual anime.

first episode and they laid on the feels quite thick on this one, although it was expected since they kinda foreshadowed it at the beginning there, but still, quite sad when it happened.

Stopped at episode 16, decided I wanted to wait for it to finish airing to binge watch it all at once; so yes let's start at the beginning again and finally finish Freiren.

So here we go, finally I'll start Frieren. And it was a really great first episode, the visuals and music are beautiful. Very calm atmosphere, but still interesting, especially how the characters are interacting with each other. Guess we'll have a lot of timeskips, so far I'm impressed.

This was nice. Not all anime needs to have sassy lewd anime girls and edginess, that stuff is nice too, but it's nice to have variety.

What's wrong with you people ? The opening is awesome and the ending sucks. Not the other way around.

Also, some praise here is way over the top. Get real !

And to keep the status quo, mid mid, peak peak, rizz rizz, cooking cooking.
