I have watched anime since i could remember, all 40 odd years of my life, and i can definitely say i've never lost my love and appreciation for it.
However, watching frieren these past few days feels like falling in love all over again. Frieren is magic. Not just in the theme of the story, but in execution, art, storyline and the unfolding of the characters. I grew fond of all of them, even the ones i would normally hate became precious. No one note characters here for sure!
10/10 have become top anime of all time for me.
Do yourself a favor and watch this.
