what if someone hacks your ftp server and downloads all of your anime girls without your persimmons???

>>7073calling it now it will end with
Freiren dying and her reuniting with Himmel in the afterlife. For additional difficulty I will say the knight will reach his hand towards her and as she grabs it the screen goes white. The end. Yeah, I know that is not her name. This spelling suits her better!

>>7141I dunno, to me they seemed like very different shows besides the fantasy setting and action.
If you liked the first few episodes I'd lead you to check out some more iyashikei travel focused anime such as Hakumei to Mikochi or Kino no Tabi instead, but if you're thirsting for more fantasy then sure give it a try.

>>7144I probably wouldn't pay attention to the regular boy-Kino, heheh.
>>7145The story of the first city was quite interesting; I liked it. The dated visuals do bother me a bit, especially after Freiren, which was simply beautiful.

I've been rewatching Strike Witches, which I haven't seen probably since 2010. I forgot how much I liked the girls in this show, and just how much fun it is. Although it really feels tame compared to the ecchi anime you see now.

>>7262bocchi was fun. could be better if she didn't freak out at every little inconvenience, especially towards the end it got tiresome. my favorite gag was when she imagined her adulthood as a neet.
i like everything that screams "go out there and fight!" and thats how i received the show.

today I finished Wandering Witch. i really liked Eleina – distant and self-absorbed, rather a calculating observer than a hero. just like me but in a form of a petite ashen-haired witch.

I was peer pressured into watching Frieren (managed about 5 eps before I gave up), and I don't think it gave me much of interest. It should be stated that I've never cared for the medieval fantasy genre, no sophisticated takedown here, I just have never found it compelling, so all the people who personally told me that Frieren was so good that it somehow transcended genre in that regard were wrong.
If you take MGS3 as an example, I find it an interesting case where a Japanese author tries to imitate something of Anglo-American origin, but in doing so, produces a lot of tonal elements that position it as being very unlike something that would come out of those countries, compounded by the personal idiosyncrasies of its auteur. At risk of essentialising or repeating a Nihonjinron-based discourse/interpretation, Frieren is really the opposite to that idea, its characterisation and worldbuilding are buried so deep into the Tolkien mould that it really doesn't ignite anything on its own.
