Sousou no Frieren quickly climbed to the top of seasonal tops, and even on MAL was able to dislodge Fullmetal Alchemist from first place in the ranking of all anime. A leisurely fantasy title with a melancholic atmosphere, hints of light sadness and stunning musical and visual design is considered the best work of Madhouse in recent years, but, perhaps, the lion's share of success was brought by the heroes.
The images of the characters in Friren, who sees off her final journey, feel alive and deep, and it is impossible not to be imbued with their emotions, characters and destinies. This article contains names, ages and facts about all the characters in this wonderful series.
