Frieren: Beyond Journey's End

The season moves at a really slow pace and is a long season so it is a little hard to rate. Moving so slowly really just immerses you in how long a journey like this would feel like for a human. Every character is really well developed, and even the random side characters and demons are memorable and you end up caring for them, especially during the mage exam. It makes you invested in Fieren and her past without you realizing it. It also has an amazing soundtrack as well as an amazing first opening and an ending song that makes me cry every time. This should’ve won Anime of the Year as well, so yeah 5 stars.
