Review of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End

I love all the scenes with Himmel in it and the message behind the series, but the pacing of the show is really slow. I like the story but I sometimes fall asleep watching it. The first episode really grabs you, and it's an interesting twist to the common fantasy genre. The world building and magic system is unique as well. The characters are likable, but they aren't energetic. The whole show has a really slow feeling to it. Like a leisure stroll in the park or baking a cake for 3 hours. A slice of life fantasy with hints of nostalgia. I think it's slowpacing fits the main character Frieren who is elf with a long life span.

It really depends on your taste if you'll enjoy this show. Personally I would prefer watching Frieren's original journey with Himmel, which is why I knocked off a point.
