It’s a little slow and unevenly paced, but overall I do solidly enjoy it. There are some really great characters and arcs and I especially loved Elias trying to make friends. My girlfriend absolutely loves this show as well, so it’s something everyone can watch and enjoy I think.
I may be misremembering on the pacing. I do remember liking season 2 more, though at first when I saw they were going to magic school I was worried what direction things were going to go in, but I really enjoyed Chise making friends and Elias’s attempts and the accompanying adventure. The school felt like a real place, not just an excuse to do magic things.
I’ve seen some comments here saying they didn’t when Frieren took a diversion to magic school, and I felt the same at first again, but I think they did enough unique things with it as well.
I keep recommending Ancient Magus Bride. Nobody watches…
It’s a seriously good anime with some slice of life and drama, an amazing magical world and SUPER GOOD SOUNDTRACK
If anyone reading this watches it, I beg of you, please tell me what you thought

Thanks! Well, I actually like how it is paced, kinda keeps you guessing you know? Did you watch the extra stuff?
No, I was not aware of any extras.

I haven’t watched season 2 yet (waiting for BD release) so I stopped reading half way not to see any spoilers, but great to know you like it better!
After season 1 you can watch 2 OVAs:
