The manga is very beautiful and heartouching. It made me cry. Trust keep this on your watch list if you want to cry.

If she met Fushi from "To Your Eternity"...it would be a doubly sad yet relatable crossover. 😭 👏

It's not that she realises they will die, it's that she realises the value of fleeting things and time itself

[suyahatesntr]

This is literally how humans (a long lived species) compare to their pets be it a cat or dog. When they're gone, we'll all realize one thing.

you forgot to mention something very important to her character. She didn't realize until after the fact that she was in love with the hero and part of the reason she's on this journey is because she wants to remember the journey with him the first time as well as finish everything he started since the demons are trying to raise a new army to restart the war he's defeated the first time.

Fun Fact: “Frieren” is a German word. It’s describes the action/feeling of being cold and freezing. The verb would be for example “Ich friere”, which literally means I’m freezing. I think it represents Frieren’s sad, cold and melancholic Aura really well…

[Oliveria]

Holy sht! I didn't know they were adapting this! So bittersweet.

Fun fact: Frieren made a cameo in the Komi Can't Communicate anime. In the episode where Komi, Tadano, and Najimi go to Nakanaka's house to play video games, and in the Smash Bros parody game, you can see Komi playing as Frieren.

OMG THEY'RE ADAPTING THIS?!?! I LITERALLY JUST BOUGHT THE NINTH VOLUME. I highly recommend this beauty, the feelings and thoughts that it provokes are really profound.

I don’t find it depressing at all, I’m enjoying it greatly. It’s a great perspective about time vs what so many shows and movies have shown us about life being short and fleeting whether sue to accident or illness etc. Maquia was another one that showed the pain of outliving others. It would be fascinating to have such a long lifespan

[PRYM_B]

It's times like this when you realize Immortality is actually a curse.

[idk_man]

This really reminds me of Maquia when the promised flower blooms. The movie had me sobbing by the end

[jmssun]

It’s not depressing, it’s thought provoking and heart melting

[sarthak]

watching this short after completing the anime made my eyes water

[sharogengaming]

This show is anything but depressing, it's just a heartfelt slice of life.

[argusrogue]

This anime hits the feels in the right way without fucking you up with depression. Definitely worth the watch

[-unbirthdays]

Literally every chapter of the manga makes me want to cry. It's just that good!

[vikashyadav_]

It's not depressing man 😌 it's refreshing

[kindamanly]

Why does this sound like such a beautiful concept?

*because it is*

This anime makes you understand why elf are A very isolated race. Due to there long life span compared to the other species like humans and dwarf it become very hard to form a deep relationship with them cuz you gonna end up seeing everyone that you love and like die from old age while you are still the same.

I guess that is why in some stories elf are portrait as arrogant, cuz think about it may be the elders of elf realized this issue so the most practical solution for them to make the youngest generation think they are better than other species so they don't get to attached to them.
