Fans of
“ Sousou no
Frieren ( Frieren: Beyond Journey's End )” have
received an unexpected blow with the news of an indefinite suspension
on the manga series. Frieren has become, without a doubt, one of the
biggest anime franchises in recent years. The story's accessibility, combined
with its stunning visuals and animation courtesy of Madhouse Studios, have made
it a huge hit with fans and critics alike, and that's unlikely to
change in the near future.
The “Sousou
no Frieren” manga, of course, is just as good as the anime, and some
unfortunate news has just emerged about it. Like many mangas, “Frieren”
is currently on hiatus for Golden Week, but it has been announced that after
returning from Golden Week, “Sousou no Frieren” will go on an indefinite
hiatus.
The exact
reasons behind the pause are unknown. The “Sousou no Frieren” manga has
gone on hiatus many times before, so fans of the manga are used to it, but it
might be a shock to those who started following the story after the explosive
success of the anime. The break will begin after the chapter that will
be released on May 8. There is no confirmed return date for the manga, but fans
shouldn't take it too hard, as this has happened in the past, and Frieren has
always returned.
It's
still unfortunate, especially considering that the second season of the anime
has also not been announced yet, but with a story as good as “Sousou no
Frieren”, the wait will surely be worth it.
This
situation raises concerns about the future of anime. With the manga
moving at a slower pace due to its frequent breaks, the material available for
a possible second season is reduced. While it is understandable that
the authors and editorial team need time to develop the story properly, this
situation may also affect the chances of continuing the series in the future.
