After a 10-year adventure with the heroes Himmel, the magician Freelen defeated the demon king and brought peace to the world. She is an elf who has lived for more than a thousand years. She promises to meet Himmel and others again and sets out on a journey alone.
Fifty years later, Freelen visits Himmel, but she is the same as she was fifty years ago. And Himmel has grown old, and her life is short.
After that, she witnessed her dying Himmel and felt that she had not “known people” until now. So go on a journey to find out.
On that journey, various encounters with various people and various events were waiting.

And finally, it will be an anime, and Free Len will depart.
The visual has also been released along with the announcement of the animation decision. The graphic depicts the main character, Freelen, holding a cane while looking at something with the shining moon in the background. The mysterious figure of Freelen, illuminated by beautiful moonlight and purplish light, is an impressive visual.

I want you to look forward to what kind of magic the anime “Sousou no Frieren” will show fans and viewers.
