Frieren: Beyond Journey's End ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Frieren: Beyond Journey's End has ended up holding an incredibly special place in my heart. I give it a hearty five stars and it is well-deserved. I have been involved in the anime space since around 2010-2012 so I have had the pleasure of going through the usual list of animes that were popular in the tween and teen spaces. Watching this as an adult now was really... right on time. As many people experience loss so differently, I lost my father around the same time I really started to get into this anime. And oh boy, it really spoke to me. It felt like a warm hug or a warm cup of tea on a chilly day. It does an amazing job of exploring grief as it speaks more to the slow burn of loss. I am waiting in anticipation for this masterpiece to release the next season.
