I was surprised by the enthusiasm of the production team when I heard their stories at the production site and received their drawings of the settings for each episode. I am amazed at the enthusiasm of everyone in the production team.
I am also very happy to know that they are thinking about the Frieren in various ways. I am looking forward to seeing the her in action in the anime.Encouraged by this, I will do my best to make a better work!
Frieren will be animated! It’s a dream come true. Thank you so much to all the readers who always supported me.
