How are we six episodes in and still not done with volume 1? The next one will probably end volume 1 since it looks like they're going over all the Shizu backstory that they skipped leading up to this point.

Best Girl still isn't here...

I'm gonna assume that Nameless Story is going to be in both cours. Not that I think that's a bad thing.

Shizue is very beautiful and powerful, I loved her voice, she was "destined" to Rirumu, I hope it is coincidence that she is Japanese, but if it was not, that does not matter.
The goblins have advanced rapidly in the construction of their new village, although now it must be bigger since more goblins joined their village, they also mentioned the ogres, orcs and lizardman, i hope we can see them.
Shizue and Rirumu have a moment in which they know each other better, Shizue is from the time of World War II and she is an "summoned", I have a bad feeling about the guy that summoned her. It was a nice detail of Rirumu to show Shizue the progress of Japan after the war. Shizue seems to have some discomfort, since it is seen that she suffers a strong pain, will be some disease or old wound? I hope it's nothing serious.

She literally asks if he is Japanese and Rimuru says "Yes". Also thats after the war. She got summoned during her family were dying to American planes lol. I think its easy to say she would hate Americans


AH. did they? Sorry, I was super damn tired this morning, and running on very little sleep. I apologize.

I still feel however that attributing prejudice to someone with no precedence is a bit silly. I don't think I would say she would outright hate someone she never met until something like that is actually shown and proven.

Great episode.

Nice to see how the Goblin village has evolved along with the population. xD

We finally get to see more of the adventurer group from the first episode and we finally get to meet Shizu as well. Really liking her from what we've seen from this episode. Loved the parts where Rimuru showed Shizu what current day Japan was like .:)

I'm kinda interested in how Shizu came to know about games. xD
Her backstory seems rough, that master doesn't look like a nice guy considering he just offered her up to Ifrit.

So Shizu makes her appearence and she's quite the stunner and damn she's quite skilled. Didn't take her much effort taking out all those Ant's! So as Rimuru guessed, she's also from Japan but was actually summoned. Now this is quite an interesting development. Her past is quite a shocker, she was in a very bad shape when she arrived into this world.

That Shizu/Rimuru moment sure made me happy somehow, I guess they are truly fated together.

Rigurd sure has become bigger and I see Gobta has able to summon, the Goblin village is beginning to prosper. Naming 500 goblins sure is a stretch, Rimuru sure has the mentality (I wouldn't have cope).

The glimpse back story of Shizu is a bit sad man, that blonde guy seems obnoxious.

Any way, good episode.

Oh nooo, damn you 8-bit, you made Shizu really that cute. For the manga reader like me, this is not good



Eiii.... that Elf on rimuru's PC seems familiar. Isn't that from the harem king isekai anime last season ?

I just realize that 8-bit really spoiling the next arc after shizu arc on the ED animation, the ogres.

we got a someone on the key visual to finally show up. i like Shizu so far....gonna be a shame if something happens to her

really like this show. balancing between wholesome and intriguing is good. only nitpicks is the sound effects and Ellen's voice not matching the character's emotion (turns out her actress is a legit rookie, so i'll give her a pass)

Kinda funny seeing a slime have a love interest lol. Seems like I guessed correct, Shizu was summomed a long time ago and is probably the hero who sealed veldora. Im really tempted to read the source material now but knowing myself I wont be watching the anime anymore if I did that.

Im kinda curious what rimuru would sound like in human form because he's not gonna have the same va when he's a slime right?

Was a awesome episode! But it finished way to fast, it is signal that i am enjoying a lot!

Riumuro telling us how Gobta had returned from prison was really funny!

Goblin village grew a lot, and the population increase to 500, how fast!

The human group was really funny to watch, was cool to meet them more than last encounter in cave!

I loved meeting Shizue, so she was summoned before she dies, she is really beautifull, and at first sight she have a awesome pesonality and looked strong, and was interesting how she knew that Rimuru were from Japan too, if she knows about games from japan, that world should have more people from Japan, cause she told Rimuru that a friend told her!

I am curious to learn more about Shizue! Hyped for next week!

What a great episode

I love Shizu even though i already know what will happen to her later since i already read the manga long time ago, but the adaptation makes me care about the characters once again, sign of a good adaptation.

Also this kind of pacing is my favourite since it's not that fast to throw you outside the tempo yet not painfully slow at the point i feel asleep.

She literally said "I've never played it, but I heard about it from someone else from my country." Pay attention people.


FYI, the quote, "I'm not a bad slime you know." is a direct reference to Dragon Quest games. I find it hard to believe that someone from the WWII era could have the concept of video games explained to them, then specifically have Dragon Quest explained and understand it's lore to the point that quoting a phrase from the game would warrant a chuckle. Also, when Rimuru shows her visions of Tokyo Tower and the Shinkansen being built, she seems to be finding out about post WWII Japan for the first time and is genuinely happy that Japan was in a time of peace. Wouldn't this point of conversation have come up first if she spoke with another person from our world?

I'm wondering was all this in the novels and if so was it explained further or is this just a sloppy side story added in by the anime.


I never read the novels but in the manga, it will be explained later.

Gobta became a summoner? That's high class already...

Shizu cutting down those giant ants was a great action sequence!

"Got a problem with slimes?" That's going to be the best line in this series.

Is that a Teppanyaki griddle?

Shizu eats with her mask on! The seiza-style sitting posture is a nice detail. I do find it weird that for a fantasy setting, everyone eats with chopsticks:


Whoa, that was sooner than I expected! Shizu is from Japan!

Rimuru can memory share?! That is SO going to come in handy!

There's one thing about Shizu that scares me though. She's not part of the group in the final frame in the ending animation...

She asked if that was a game reference first to see if he was actually from her world as she most likely got told by other summons and who said she laughed at the refrence it self she could have easily laughted at the way rimuru simply said it

24 episodes , 3 - 4 volumes the pacing fine. it will most likely be fine once binge-watched
I think it will actually speed up a bit, I've even mapped it out in my head where the first cour will adapt to the end of vol 3 (of the manga) and vol 7 for the 2nd cour. (If you're referring to vol 3-4 of the novels, I think that would sync up with where I think it will adapt to in the manga so my bad)



Yea I meant the LN.

This was definitely better than last episode.

Really liking Shizu's design and power. You can't go wrong with a fire-wielding, mask-wearing badass of a girl. And the icing on the cake? she's super pretty.

Hope her backstory will be shown next episode.

Much improved compared to last episode, mainly because of the proper introduction of Shizu, who I can only assume will be one of the most important characters in the show going forward. Interesting to see how exactly her summoning occurred, as well as actually getting the meeting with Rimuru done early rather than saving it for later (and it was nice of Rimuru to show her Japan's future after the war ended).

Ifrit(race of fire djinn or genies) is an actual figure in arabic folklore with the main Iblis basically being the arabic equivalent of Lucifer. He's appeared or been referenced in just about EVERY fantasy game or series as the main fire spirit and even in the first Devil May Cry game as a pair of fire gauntlet weapons.

Now with Shizu, she knows the reference to Dragon Quest from someone else from Japan she met some years prior who just gave small details about it being a famous game. The whole thing about Japan was way different since while she knew that things got better, it's a whole nother thing to actually see it the way Rimuru presented it. To see the destruction and then the whole process of rebuilding and recovering like it did.

Yes they do. Depending on the region, Direwolves evolve to match their elemental surroundings. Since Rimuru named them based on Veldora's concept of storms, he evolved to match certain details like that hence the Dark Lightning Skill as well.

Hair-/Eyecolor changes for characters are pretty common for this franchise, escpacially when going from WN to LN/manga. For example the twintailed pink-haired loli you can see in the ED (and OP) used to have blonde haircolor in the WN version, but it was changed to pink in the LN and kept ever since.

I'm not disappointed, but I would have preferred a more serious narration, which only happens in the final, as before, oh well! Moreover, the fact that Shizu and Limur meet so easily, a little disappoint me. However, the vision is pleasant, but the anime could be better, setting the narration on more serious and less goliardic parameters.

A pretty fun episode.

Shizu is super strong it seems like and she has a demon inside her? Seems like she didn't have a good childhood in the new world and she is from the WW2 era.

Rimuru is just like her, a japanese person so they should get along fine.

Shizu has been finally introduced! But I have to say Hanamori Yumiri really has talent because of her different voice range in which sometime I could not recognize her compared to other VA's which their voices are very distinct and easy to know who VA is who...lolz
anyway these humans who Rimuru met was from the cave in the first place! how I did not notice that!
I was nice that Rimuru used thought communication so that Shizu would see the previous life of Rimuru.
Back story of Shizu was tragic! so her case was different! She wasn't reincarnated but summoned to a different world,a and it seems like her original world was edo era of Japan? from the looks of the clothes...seems like it!
5/5.

This show keeps getting better.

For me, the pacing feels a bit slow to be following this weekly. I'm sure it'll make for a great binge though, so I'll be planning for a re-watch marathon at the end...
