It was Frieren. It's either the best selling manga of all time or somewhere up there. So when it was finally animated, every other property featuring elves was rushed into production to ride on Frieren's coattails (pigtails?)

>It was Frieren.
Every generic (native) isekai LN or anime has one. Frieren just jumped on the bandwagon. Fat elf was here before that I think. You are sill if you think anime productions can react that fast. To manga, maybe, but not to anime.

Deedlit remains superior, after that, Tsunelf.

Elves are like the most common non-human "race" other then animal people in anime and manga. Fantasy in anime and manga was mostly video game focused isekai, a setting a lot of people (myself included) don't understand because they never played those games or find the entire premise too ridiculous to get invested. Elves are a staple of this and are extremely common in all of fiction and media, not just anime and manga. Just so happens that several anime based on popular fantasy series starring elves released at the same time, Dungeon Meshi and Frieren being both fucking amazing also helped.

Also factor in the surge of popularity of Dungeons and Dragons and fantasy as a whole recently. Dungeons and Dragons and Tolkien basically filled a large void where Harry Potter used to sit before JK Rowling ruined her reputation and tainted her brand, and there's really no hype around current harry potter media that's unneeded by this point.

>>269184677
This post also pretty much true, it's the most common fantasy race in anything, and also happens to be the typically hottest race with a pension for fucking human men unironically (Half-elves). So many of the elves posted here are either half elves and/or romantically involved with non-elves.

Deedlit also has her own game that was really fun to play despite me only watching the show AFTER playing the game so I had to do some serious guesswork as to who everyone in the game mentioned.

Funnily enough, shovel sheep's manga got axed because the author of the source—the webnovel—threw a tantrum after readers pointed out his giant plotholes and he stopped writing it. And the artist hasn't drawn anything since. Shame because the art and her design were top notch.

Sharly pointed ears can't exist, even if their cartilaginous carcass was sharply pointed, which is a horrible design because it would inevitably poke a hole in the skin, the skin around it would smooth over the point. Even cat ears are rounded at the ends.

There is no current elf explosion you absolute sped casual. There are exactly as many elves as there have always been. If there's a fantasy anime of any kind you can almost certainly count on there being an elf of some kind. Why do you people think that any time you start noticing anything it must somehow be new. This has literally been the status quo since there has been fantasy anime.
