Review of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End

A cozy watch for a long time audience of this medium, but slightly unaccessible for the beginners. You can't deny, out of every tropes and cliches that Frieren has done right, you still need to be familiar enough with the formula to atleast walk in the same wavelength. This show built its own world above prior knowledges out of every Isekai or fantasy genres in anime. So forgive me, if i still can't shake the feeling that this is just a pretty good spinoff or an OVA from a preexisting IP. But on the other hand, arguably, that is the whole intention! Yes, this feels like aslow epilogue from your long journey inside this medium, but that is why its so worth it! It feels like a reward or an accomplishment for you after being an enough weeboo. You won't just be finishing a dozen show about this and be tired from all the rinse and repeat then calling this a washed-up genre. No, Frieren gives you reason to think deeper, to pretend that all of this has a profound values for your life... But yeah, sadly, you still won't be making much sense if you'd talk about this show in the ears of the norm.
