Synopsis:
Set in a world where Elves possess extended lifespans, *Sousou no Frieren* follows Frieren, an elderly Elf mage reflecting on her past after the defeat of the Demon King. Haunted by the fleeting nature of human lives and struggling to connect with those who age so rapidly, she embarks on a journey with a human hero, Himmel. Their travels reveal the complexities of mortality, memory, and the profound differences in perspective that arise from vastly different lifespans. The series unfolds with a contemplative pace, emphasizing character interactions and quiet moments of discovery within a vibrant, fantastical landscape. It explores themes of grief, legacy, and finding meaning in a world where time moves at uneven speeds, offering a thoughtful meditation on life’s preciousness.

Anime is great in the sense that more often than not, being a fan of throws you at a interconnected tangle of hundreds if not thousands of connected works of different types. One of which is music, and great music at that. Frieren has us spoiled in this regard, not only has it graced us with a classic YOASOBI hit, but also an n-buna masterpiece. The song albeit trippy, felt like a weird fever dream that is very familiar and very strange all at the same time. The vocals feel like pleading for one’s innocence while the visual style of blending 2D and 3D did contribute themost for the trippy feel.nnCertainly, the visuals, being 3D, were the furthest from being considered good or “appetizing” to look at, but I felt as thought the reason for that was more intentional than not because it really does sell the nostalgic aspect for a distant memory that’s growing rusting and faint by the day. The one that will creep you up as a fever dream and wake you up with a warm tear on you cheek and a muddy mood for the rest of the day.nnIt’s an acquired taste. -

This is a music video for the song that was used as Frieren's second opening. The animation is completely different from the animation in the anime. The animation in this music video is purely CGI and looks quite bad. The good thing about this CGI animation is that it offers a possible interpretation of the lyrics of the song but it was quite painful to watch when compared to the animation that was used for the opening in the anime; even if this animation didn't relate to the lyrics. The song itself was good but you'll known whether or not you like it based onwhether you liked Frieren's second opening. nnOverall I don't recommend watching this music video because of its bad CGI. You can watch it once if you really care about a possible way to interpret the song but I'd argue just listening beats watching in this case.
