I’ve been really enjoying Sousou no Frieren and by enjoying I mean feeling like I want to cry.

I’ll need to find something more upbeat next.

      I started watching it with really low hopes because it has a collection of things I don’t usually like, but I was hungry for a samurai series that was realistic but not boring.

      I dislike the animation and noticed it is really obvious about its inspiration and uses a lot of tropes but I’m starting to look past it because it has a kernel of its own thing going and its really good. I still keep seeing other shows/movies in it but the main character gets more development than I thought she would.
