My current watchlist:
Shield Hero 3 - s3 main goal is to unite the four heroes into a single force. It's a bit of "more of the same" so I don't fully disagree with the vlogger, but it's being a fun ride for me.
Shangri-La is fun. It isn't just that SGL would be fun to play, but also that Sunraku is completely... weird? But weird in a relatable way.
Frieren is being such a wonderful ride that I'm not surprised that he's singing its praises. A different take on fantasy, gorgeous art and scenes, a rather good (albeit overexplored IMO) theme, and there's always some underlying melancholy that makes it beautiful.
Tearmoon Empire can be summed up in two words: "sasuga, Mia-sama!" He barely talks about it, but the show is great if you want a redemption story that doesn't take itself too seriously.
He didn't mention The Far Away Paladin: The Lord of the Rust Mountain. But I heavily recommend it (and its first season).
Seconded on the Faraway Paladin recommendation. There's just nothing else like it. It may not bring the top-tier directing that Frieren offers, but the script alone is special enough to make Faraway Paladin worth anyone's time IMO
I might have to give the anime a chance. I have had an up and down experience with the manga. I really loved the opening arc featuring his "parents" but then really struggled to get through the city-building portion of the story as it was really slow. The anime might smooth out the pacing a bit because I really like the current story in the manga (dragon fight) which seems like it is what the airing season is adapting.
