I would say the closest to Frieren in both quality of the writing and animation (and even surpassing the animation by a mile) is Violet Evergarden. It's on Netflix so you probably already have access to it. It's just as emotional as Frieren and shares some of the same core concepts of the story by exploring what it means to have basic human emotions though the lens of someone who is struggling with them. I cannot recommend Violet Evergarden enough.
Yeah, a few people have mentioned it. I guess Violet Evergarden goes to the top if the list. Thanks!
Initially the early 20th century setting but with the advanced robot hands but also with the automemory dolls because most people can't write, took some getting used to.
I think the worldbuilding was a bit meh, they explained very little of what was actually going on.
But the character development and general story telling where really good and I basically binged the last half. I cried quite a bit. Very much enjoyed it, thanks for the great recommendation.
