You know this one is kind of flying under the radar. I will be the first to say its not exactly a masterpiece. But I'll be damned if it isn't fun. Most RPG and Isekai animes are ass, lets be real. This is one that doesn't pull any weird stuff, no truck-kun sending some guy to another world where he is a hair straightener with the power of god and a harem of big tiddie anime waifus. Nope, just a dude playing a video game. And its WAY more relatable because of that. You can tell the person who made this *actually* plays ... video games. Its not just a plot device.

The animation isn't MAPPA slave labor level but its good. The story isn't the greatest of all time but its fun. I would definitely recommend this show for anybody who wants an easy watch.

Through 14 episodes the only real way to describe this anime is... lovely. It invokes a feeling in you that is hard to describe as anything else. The story is rather predictable, but its the characters that really make it incredible. The world building isn't anything crazy but its good enough that it makes you want to spend time there learning its history over the last 1000 years if anything just because of Frieren. The animation is amazing, the soundtrack is perfect, and the story is like distilled nostalgia.

There is a profound sense of regret deep beneath the surface that makes you want to slow ... down and just pay attention to the world around you. You realize Frieren is a flawed character that is realizing they have lived an incredible life with incredible people but because of the long lived life of an elf it all kind of flew by like a blur. It is a fantasy about literally going to the ends of the Earth (or whatever they call it there) just for a chance to appreciate a moment with those who you loved but didn't realize it until they were gone. The characters are relatable and real, and the dialogue is actually believable. This isn't good anime, this is art.
