Περιγραφή
What happens after the journey ends?
In Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, the traditional heroic fantasy tale is turned on its head. The Demon King is defeated, and the legendary party of adventurers disbands. But for Frieren, the elven mage with a lifespan far exceeding her human companions, the end of the journey marks the beginning of something far more complex—grief, memory, and the challenge of connecting with mortals whose lives are fleeting.
A tale of quiet introspection and emotional growth
This first volume follows Frieren as she revisits old places and memories, slowly beginning to understand the importance of human relationships. With beautiful artwork by Tsukasa Abe and a heartfelt story by Kanehito Yamada, Frieren invites readers into a slow-paced, reflective journey that focuses not on battles, but on emotional healing and discovery.
