The staff for the upcoming Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End anime revealed two more cast members. Studio MADHOUSE is animating and producing the anime for a September 29 premiere in what appears to be a very busy fall anime season.
After a 10-year quest, the elven mage Frieren and the hero Himmel part ways. The kingdom enters a period of peace following the Demon King’s defeat, and Frieren sets out on a journey of self-discovery after Himmel’s passing. She will be joined by characters that are much younger than her such as Fern and Stark.

The Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End anime premieres on September 29 with a two-hour special. Japan will receive this two-hour special on Nippon Television (NTV), and fans in the west may view the new Frieren anime as it premieres on Crunchyroll.
Lastly, here’s an overview of the new anime series, via Crunchyroll.
The mage Frieren defeated the Demon King alongside the hero Himmel’s party after a 10-year quest. Peace was restored to the kingdom. Because she is an elf, she is able to live over a thousand years. She promises Himmel and the others that she will be back to see them and then sets out on a journey by herself. Fifty years later, Frieren goes to visit Himmel and the others. She remained unchanged, but Himmel and the others have aged and only a little of their lives remain. Later, she witnesses Himmel’s death. Frieren is pained by her desire to have spent more time getting to know people. With that regret in her heart, she then goes on a journey to do just that. On her journey, she meets many people and many events await her.
