I like the calm atmosphere of the anime, the soundtrack is great, I mean it has everything you would ask for in a fantasy adventure anime, so you should check it out.

No, I find it pretty mundane for SOL standards the thing is it’s better than most sol fantasy anime and so people are going nuts but in terms of a show in general I think there’s a lot it lacks and it insists upon itself. But I’m in the minority so do as you will

Depends. Whether it is good or not is entirely subjective, I found it pretty boring in some scenes as it's very slow compared to other anime but other scenes were good.
Wouldn't say it's the best anime in the world for sure though.

It has the right mix of action&comedy that appeals to the mainstream audience and the contemplativeness that appeals to the more expert watchers. If you only want the formers you might prefer one of the highest rated battle shounen, whereas if you only care about the latter you might prefer anime like Mushishi, but in order to reach the n°1 spot a mix of both is necessary.

The anime is good. It's very chill in most of the episodes, and the episodes that have action and really nice. Still, I can see people finding it boring and uninteresting, so if you prefer fast-paced anime you may not like it.

I will rate it 8/10 most likely.

Wow it surpassed even FMAB? I didn't notice that before...that's truly a feat.

Still, Sousou no Frieren has yet to end and many people only rate after watching everything (like me for example) so the score will certainly fall a bit.

Also, FMAB has more than 3 million members on MAL while Sousou no Frieren has 300k and this difference in numbers has a great impact on its score. I do think a great number of people would find this anime boring and slow, so as more people decide to see why this anime is so great, they are going to be disappointed and give it a worse note.
I despise woke people.

Its good for now, not sure it gets better or keeps its momentum as the story goes, not quite there with the manga. The stuff it does adapt right now is really good and deserves a high score and being one of the best anime this season.

Also FMAB has a lot of bots artificially pumping the numbers.

Despite FMAB it being one of my personal favorites, I dont think its the best there is. Same applies to a lot of Gintama stuff being so high as it is, but thats just me.

It is excellent, but that doesn't mean it's for everyone. No story is for everyone, so don't feel that just because it's very highly rated everyone (you included) will like it.

What I think makes this anime good is what makes the manga good. That would be the slow pacing and the way that it tries to make you feel certain emotions. I think it does a good job of portraying the slow march of time and the bitter sweet emotions that can come with that. It never lets you forget that time is always going forward, but that it isn’t always best to rush things and sometimes it is worth it to slow down and just appreciate the things around you.
I think you have to like slow paced stories in order to like this anime. It has some action, but I think that’s more to break things up and isn’t really the focus of the story.

I think most of the success comes from the "Beyond Journey's End" concept, which is basically a new subgenre that could be called post-adventure.

I’m probably sitting at about an 8/10. What I like about it is that it gives you the current story, but it also drip feeds you information about their old adventure in parallel with the new journey. That kind of dual story telling really appeals to me for some reason.

Explaining my scoring system would take more than 650 characters.

It is indeed mundane in terms of SoL standards just because it is not an SoL.

@Confused_100 Act older and realize that scores mean nothing and should not hyper focus on it as the end all be all. Also learn what sarcasm is.

People that worry about these things waste their time instead of just enjoying stuff they like. Who cares if ones favorite is not in the top 50 of an anime database site. Get real and worry about actual things.

I really don't see the point in asking this question. Just watch 1 or 2 episodes and decide if it's good for you or not. The show has a 9+ rating on this site, did you really expect people were gonna respond to your post with "Nah dude, it's fucking shit. Best to stay away from it."?

I am cool with that but you were the one who brought rankings in this thread to begin with. So I just made fun of your fact that it’s only “FMAB” fanbase when it’s shown more than once these years that every new fanbase is technically the same, bringing in bots for no reason lol

@Confused_100 Not the first one to mention FMAB on this thread, nor did I say its only them doing the vote-brigading. No idea where you pull those from.

If you were cool with that, should have stayed shut.

@TRC_Randy it's possible the anime is kinda overrated because of the later arc of the manga that won't be animated this season. 9.12 rating is definitely too high for Frieren this season imo, but for next season however, it will probably take the 1st place for a very long time.

That’s a pretty good comparison. Realizing now that you mentioned it, they have an extremely similar story structure.

The only difference I would highlight is that Violet evergarden is much more impactful when it focuses on the characters Violet encounters through her travels rather than Violet’s relationship with the Major and her struggle to understand feelings.

Frieren has, so far, focused mainly on the main crew of characters either in the present or past, and it is most definitely the strongest part of the series. It hasn’t really focused all that much, or maybe just hasn’t done as well, at crafting impactful moments with side characters encountered during the adventure.

It’s interesting how their structure is so similar, yet they’re opposites in which part of the structure they’re strongest with.

It's overrated for sure with that rating, but it's a good anime so go for it, I at least will admit that the production quality of this anime has been good so far, I do have some complaints about this anime, not everything is perfect but it's still a pretty good anime.

I didn't like the first couple of episodes that much but this anime is slowly growing on me.

So far, it's an 8.5/10 anime for me.
