Do you like fantasy? Check out Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End; it’s what recently got me to watch anime. It tells a great story with compelling characters, has some awesome action scenes, and keeps all of the things I hate about anime (excessive melodrama and fanservice) to a minimum.
It’s just a great show, and not merely a great anime.
This is the sort of anime you show to your friends who aren’t anime fans. It’s wonderfully paced with nuanced characters, has an excellent English dub, has a heartfelt beginning, and occasionally reminds us that this is a Studio Madhouse production with some great action scenes.
And best of all, it’s not ridiculously horny like a ton of other anime. It’s not merely a great anime, it’s just a great show, period.
You really should. It’s free, and for a project birthed on 4chan, is surprisingly wholesome and uplifting.
