Anxiety is starting to take hold of me.
If brain-in-a-jar theory is correct, I'm currently being absolutely DRENCHED in some sort of anxiety inducing chemical; my hands are clammy, sweaty, my knees are weak, and I can smell my mom cooking some spaghetti so I'm pretty sure we all know what's about to happen...
I was waiting for Sousou no Frieren to finish airing to gauge people's reactions to the ending before I decide whether or not to watch it, but I caved.
Everyone and their momma is talking about this show, FOMO got me
But now what I feared most is coming true, and I can't help but tremble at the prospect of Frieren ending on a cliffhanger. There's 4 episodes left in this season. If Madhouse hits me over the head with a cliffhanger and I have to wait a year for season 2 they might as well cast Zoltraak directly into my heart.
Has anyone read the manga? Am I going to suffer terribly for my rash decision?
Also, this show is really good right?! Love it very much so far, no wonder it's topping MAL, I wonder if we really do have an all-timer on our hands.
How good's the manga? Thank you :D excited
My subjective opinion is that its position as the top anime / manga of all time is well-deserved.
I usually go for comedy series, because humour is the easiest way to keep me entertained. Without it, the manga has to rely on good story-telling - and that's exactly what Frieren has done.
In fact, Frieren tells the story so well that it is one of the only two long-running mangas in my 10 / 10 list (the other being The Apothecary Diaries).
WOW REALLY?! I'll definitely read it then!
So I should read The Apothecary Diaries too? It's on my list but I wasn't sure if I was actually going to get to it, since the premise doesn't seem that interesting.
I'd usually avoid series like Frieren and The Apothecaries Diaries due to uninteresting premise too! Thankfully, there was enough hype surrounding these two, otherwise I would have missed out.
!!!! I WILL DEFINITELY READ BOTH!!!!!
