Maquia is such an underrated movie and I just really want more people to watch it.
Both MCs are physically frozen in time, slowly aging. They both go through lessons of learning how to cherish the present. Both are set in a medieval-like fantasy world. And both stories are bittersweet but beautiful, and will make you cry.

Both shows explored the passage of time and the joys and pains that results. Begins with a tragic moment before exploring the melancholic but joyous journeys of life as it progresses.
Heavy emotional shows that really focus on great character storytelling. Minor character interactions have heavy influence on character growth throughout the journey. Set in fantasy landscapes with gorgeous visuals and matching soundtracks. World built is deep and background plot adds to how the characters develop.

I just want people appriciate the movie
Both Frieren and Maquia share the same vibe of outlive everyone ,scare of having too strong of a pond to where they die it all just pain
Frieren is a nostalgic and bittersweet journey of a long lived elf re tracing her journey. MAQUIA when the promised flowers bloomed also shows the journey of a long lived girl, taking care of her supposedly adopted son and loving him despite knowing that she will outlive him.
