It is now my favorite show. It came out in 2023 but I only found out about it a few months ago. I watched it with subtitles and with English dubs. And I cherrypicked the best parts on various React channels. It's may or may not be my favorite show of all time (that would probably be Gravity Falls, Batman the Animated Series, or Gargoyles or ATLA), but for now Frieren is fresh and new and I eagerly await Season 2 which is supposed to come out in January 2026. By anime standards, a three year gap between seasons isn't bad. The gap between seasons on One Punch Man seasons are insane. I like One Punch Man. It's not my favorite show but it's a very good show. One Punch Man and Frieren are not similar shows but they have one broad similarities. They both break normal storytelling rules. In writing and most other forms of art, "You must learn the rules, so that you can break them." You can't just break rules willynilly and expect to make brilliant art. Unless you are JJ Abrams, in which case it doesn't matter if Lost is disappointing, you'll just get offered more franchises to destroy. I do not know if Frieren is an everyone show or just a show I would like. Of all the shows I really like, I think Gravity Falls and Avatar the Last Airbender are shows for everyone. My other favorite things are acquired tastes.
