    Frieren - easily.
    Much better even.

    Mushoku too, even if you don't think so.

    You overestimate that old flick btw, standards where pretty low, that's why it's so good.
    Depending on whether you refer to the OVA or series I'd rate the show differently too.


    btw:
    Grancrest Senki is from the same author.
    As far as I remember that show didn't do well on this forum, I kinda liked it, because it featured the coolest fire mage ever shown in anime, but it was nothing to write home about. It wasn't a bad work though, I think standards just became higher.

    I liked Grancrest a lot, but the title of coolest fire mage still goes to the Gorilla Cyclops herself: Maki Oze of Fire Force.

    Ah, yeah, she's cool too.

    But in Grancrest I loved her last battle where she soaked herself with something flamable to enhance her power, just to be burned alive in the process to defend her Duke.
    Pretty awesome move, the fact that she was "dancing" while throwing flames around was even better.
    If anything, that's something I'll always remember and hope to someday integrate in my p&p campaigns

    Frieren is one of the most overrated anime of all time and the more people praise it, the more I hate it. Emotionless characters, a story that's boring until the tournament in the last 6 or so episodes and nothing exciting being told ever. An anime where every character tries SO HARD to look and sound bored. Fuck Frieren.

    I'm honestly at a loss of words if you put that and Mushoku on par with Record of Lodoss War ... which I rewatched last year and damn, it's as good as it ever was.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    I have a ton of nostalgia for Lodoss, but it's pretty generic compared to some of the stuff that comes out now.

    Though a lot of that is "It feels standard because it SET the standard." I mean, hell, the entire concept of what anime Elves and Dark Elves are comes from Lodoss.
