Anxiety is starting to take hold of me.

If brain-in-a-jar theory is correct, I’m currently being absolutely DRENCHED in some sort of anxiety inducing chemical; my hands are clammy, sweaty, my knees are weak, and I can smell my mom cooking some spaghetti so I’m pretty sure we all know what’s about to happen…

I was waiting for Sousou no Frieren to finish airing to gauge people’s reactions to the ending before I decide whether or not to watch it, but I caved.

Everyone and their momma is talking about this show, FOMO got me

But now what I feared most is coming true, and I can’t help but tremble at the prospect of Frieren ending on a cliffhanger. There’s 4 episodes left in this season. If Madhouse hits me over the head with a cliffhanger and I have to wait a year for season 2 they might as well cast Zoltraak directly into my heart.

Has anyone read the manga? Am I going to suffer terribly for my rash decision?

Also, this show is really good right?! Love it very much so far, no wonder it’s topping MAL, I wonder if we really do have an all-timer on our hands.

    The show is really good. However, the last few episodes we’ve watched (a few behind) have been a long tournament arc and it’s not even done yet. The episodes themselves are still pretty good, but it feels like forward progress in the story kind of screeched to a halt.

      Yeah I quite enjoyed to travelling and discovery in this series. Unfortunately that part ground to a halt with the Mage exam arc.
