Synopsis

During their decade-long quest to defeat the Demon King, the members of the hero's party—Himmel himself, the priest Heiter, the dwarf warrior Eisen, and the elven mage Frieren—forge bonds through adventures and battles, creating unforgettable precious memories for most of them.

However, the time that Frieren spends with her comrades is equivalent to merely a fraction of her life, which has lasted over a thousand years. When the party disbands after their victory, Frieren casually returns to her "usual" routine of collecting spells across the continent. Due to her different sense of time, she seemingly holds no strong feelings toward the experiences she went through.

As the years pass, Frieren gradually realizes how her days in the hero's party truly impacted her. Witnessing the deaths of two of her former companions, Frieren begins to regret having taken their presence for granted; she vows to better understand humans and create real personal connections. Although the story of that once memorable journey has long ended, a new tale is about to begin.

Trailer

Frieren is a good well-developed character as the anime progresses. If I were you, I would give it to episode 5 or 6 before you make your choice on not continuing.
Will have to do that. I think I burned myself out with the 15-20 different anime that I'm watching on a weekly basis at the moment. I've given almost everything for the winter season a go and haven't dropped anything really. Letting some episodes build up for a couple different ones before I dive back in though.
