The mage Frieren defeated the Demon King alongside the hero Himmel's party after a 10-year quest. Peace was restored to the kingdom. Because she is an elf, she is able to live over a thousand years. She promises Himmel and the others that she will be back to see them and then sets out on a journey by herself. Fifty years later, Frieren goes to visit Himmel and the others. She remained unchanged, but Himmel and the others have aged and only a little of their lives remain. Later, she witnesses Himmel's death. Frieren is pained by her desire to have spent more time getting to know people. With that regret in her heart, she then goes on a journey to do just that. On her journey, she meets many people and many events await her.

8/10
It’s painted with gorgeous, inviting splendor but can’t be reduced to simple escapism, thanks to its touching rumination on mortality and the short time we have with our loved ones. Go to Full Review Krithika MovieJawn May 31

See more Cody W @Cwalton1994 Jun 29 Beautifully animated and visually striking, FRIEREN: BEYOND JOURNEY’S END is one of the most comforting anime shows of the decade. Throughout each episode, it brings in a lot of great stories to tell, while sharing incredible messages of friendship along the way. See more Christian G. @chrispresario Jun 11 Haven’t stumbled upon something this epic and magical for a long time. Great characters, an ever expanding world where the Lore just gets better and better. On top of that its a soothing and beautiful journey throughout. See more Dostoyevsky S @RT73216882 Jun 7 Frieren is not only calming and cool, it is a very relatable show for someone like me who wishes he spent more time with his older brother before he passed away. I always try to keep my memories of him in my heart. See more Gwyn T @RT04825262 May 6 This is suuuch a good anime :D. The animation, colour schemes and music backgrounds are so top-notch! I loved how they portrayed the story, and the battle-scenes were so well drawn. I liked how the plot focuses on the journey after the defeat of the demon lord, rather than during it, so we get to see Frieren go through her daily life. This is a much watch if you want a comforting, down to earth series, coupled with heart-pumping op magic battles! See more Read all reviews
