Your right, and also Lenny is also drawn that way on purpose for a gag. But it was just a quick image search online and at the time I didn't give it heaps of thought.
It’s about the mage from the Party of Heroes. 80 years ago they defeated the Demon King and shattered his armies, restoring peace to most of the world.
Frierien is an elf who has lived for hundreds of years and the rest of the party are dying of old age.
The show follows her as she learns to open up to people, even though she knows those people will only live for a small fraction of her lifespan, and what it’s like to live in the world she helped save now that people are starting to forget she did.

I think that the #1 advice I've seen is to use a reference image, and that even professionals sometimes struggle with perspective - we're so good at recognising faces that even the sliiiightest little bit off will get instantly noticed.

Frieren is also adorable.
It is amazing narrative with slices of life to really bring out the characterization that makes it feel immersive.
