Are there any animes or TV shows you can't stop recommending?

It's a little slow and unevenly paced, but overall I do solidly enjoy it. There are some really great characters and arcs and I especially loved Elias trying to make friends. My girlfriend absolutely loves this show as well, so it's something everyone can watch and enjoy I think.

Thanks! Well, I actually like how it is paced, kinda keeps you guessing you know? Did you watch the extra stuff?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, I was not aware of any extras.

I may be misremembering on the pacing. I do remember liking season 2 more, though at first when I saw they were going to magic school I was worried what direction things were going to go in, but I really enjoyed Chise making friends and Elias's attempts and the accompanying adventure. The school felt like a real place, not just an excuse to do magic things.

I've seen some comments here saying they didn't when Frieren took a diversion to magic school, and I felt the same at first again, but I think they did enough unique things with it as well.

I haven't watched season 2 yet (waiting for BD release) so I stopped reading half way not to see any spoilers, but great to know you like it better!

After season 1 you can watch 2 OVAs:

They were pretty good, worth watching!

Ah, good, I was tempted to say a little more but held back. Lots of great stuff ahead if you havent seen it yet!
