| I swear, not enough salt today... First Reigen and now the Salt Meme in here... Either way, Rimuru's slime becoming the "censors" for Milim was quite funny. So many references in this episode, just wow! Houseki no Kuni reference was probably the best one of them all!! Nice to see there actually a few Otherworlders in this world, Yuuki seems like a nice guy and quite strong too. That manga/novel talk was superb though! So Rimuru is going to be a teacher and those kids seemed rather lively! |

beast_regards said: I think they don't really believe this would get a second (technically, third) season... AHAHAHAHA! Yea right. Slime was third place in January among anime/manga/LN franchises for media sales in Japan:  But sure let's just abandon the anime version of the one series which already shows tremendous success among non-anime media (manga/LN), but also seems to be completely killing it when it comes to merch making a great cross-platform success... |

| Hmm thats a novel way of polishing your swords skills while also giving the town some fresh meat. The aftermath of the battle sure provided the town with quite the harvest of materials. Gabiru and the ork lord's praises for each other sure was amusing. Damm Milim's cute level sure is overwhelming. Shizu's past memory sure was a sad one. The tech level of the kingdom sure was impressive though. Compared to the others this one looks more like modern day Japan than anything. Though the meeting with the GM started badly it was nice that in the end things turned out well. It was hillarious seeing the two talk about books and games. The insight into summons and otherworlders sure was insightful. Looks like these kids will be tough to handle. Curious to see how Rimuru can save these kids though. |

| skipping some shit eh? good thing I'm reading this manga as the anime airs. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| web/llight novel readers, I want a spoiler!!! (just an yes will be enough though) I've read ahead in the manga so I will be putting a spoiler tag here. |
Farmaceut said: They skiped and changed soo much in this episode im curious to see how will they explain some things later on..... I think @jaw201 is right , I wouldn't notice it either if I was an anime only . expositions wise , this ep is pretty good . also I really like and hate how rimuru traveling all alone like that... I mean I know there's ranga and all but... it's so lonely seeing rimuru traveling by himself like that . on the other side however , Idk about you but I think it's really good to build up the tension for the last ep |

| The next episode will catch up to the last translated manga chapter, no idea how the season will end now. Btw the Veldora pulse at the end gave me even more ideas in regards to the huge plot twist in the next episode |

Farmaceut said: Grey-Zone said: Milim left without Dragon Knuckles (unless they'll later explain that she got those off-screen at some point). Rimuru went alone and directly to Ingraccia instead of going with the 3 adventurers to Blumund first. So he never learned Demon Summoning from the examiner for the adventurer test. Well, the map showed that he passed through Blumund so they can still show that part in a future OVA what Rimuru might have done when he "stopped by". Alternatively Rimuru can learn Demon Summoning from the Freedom Guild HQ since its a spell neccessary for examiners of B-rank subjugation-adventurer exams. Thank you for answering in my place you said everything,also Rimuru didnt get ID from Fuse he used his adventurer ID(because Blumund Gulid is part Freedom Ass. that Yuuki is Guildmaster) and in manga,LN, and WN kids were between 7 and 9 years old(Gale 9,Alice 7 and the rest were 8 year olds),and Rimuru didnt even give Milim Knuckels in Anime...... let's hope they will explain it later in the ova ep while waiting for 2nd seasonπ or myb they'll use veldora slime observation journal in ep 25 to explain these skipped stuff? so myb we don't have to wait that long for ova ep , who knows |
Lab_Rat_0978Feb 18, 2019 3:28 PM
| Now I am glad I read ahead in the manga, that episode really skipped A LOT of stuff. I guess they'll be saving it for the BD OVAs or something. |
Meta_Yoshi said: I hope that we'll get to see Milim again soon. I miss her already! T_T it's at least dozen times sadder in the manga . in the manga the feeling of loneliness when milim left the town was so devastating to me (β₯οΉβ₯) |

Is this Steins Gate all over? |

Grey-Zone said: Yea right. Slime was third place in January among anime/manga/LN franchises for media sales in Japan: Why rush it then? jaw201 said: I mean you say that, but they made somewhere close to 3.2+ billion yen off of the series for the entirety of 2018. (The first volume of the anime also sold somewhere close to almost 6k units in its first week. It is selling well enough where a second season is essentially guaranteed, but they would have to wait for the manga to get far enough ahead.) The reason why they skipped so much is because the production committee wanted them to reach the Volume 4 cliffhanger in two cours. They actually wanted even more than that, but Fuse and the production studio managed to convince the Production committee to allow them to go to the volume 4 cliffhanger in order to allow the anime to not have a rushed plot. The narrative has been slightly shuffled from both the manga and the Light Novel, and things that were cut out, were cut out in their entirety such that they can be added together for a side story season, added into an ova, or shuffled into a different place in the narrative/plot (not as a flashback though) in a potential season 2 They aren't leaving out fan-service, obviously, which is usually OVA, and they are not leaving what was meant to be a bonus material, that's already planned to be published and are basically Velora's commentary on main events. They are leaving out parts that makes sense in overall story, like all the diplomacy and such, which have a point which is basically about kingdom / town building. I do know they usually do advertisement, but even after years experiencing the same thing in many different anime I still fail to understand why they do it, and why would anyone want to re-read the LN to fill out the blanks. At least this skip is not noticeable, if I didn't read the manga, I wouldn't know something is supposed to be in there, I've seen worse execution, but still .... |
| Signature removed. It was too good for this cruel world. |
nina444 said: where did you get that intel ,I need a link xD Well... the source is /a/, so I don't think I can help you out much. I wish it wasn't in image form either because I can't google translate the titles. But sometimes ANN bothers translating this kind of stuff as well, but I always only stumble upon it by coincidence there, so I have no idea how I found it and where I have to look for it, not even the words for the searchbar. beast_regards said: Grey-Zone said: Yea right. Slime was third place in January among anime/manga/LN franchises for media sales in Japan: Why rush it then? AFAIK, it was a disagreement between the anime production committee (the ones putting money into the project) one hand, and the anime staff and the author on the other. Appearently the committee wanted a standard kind of adaptation with 6 LN volumes in 2 cours (4 episodes per LN volume), while the anime staff and the author wanted to make a super faithfull adaptation of only 2 LN volumes in 2 cours (12 episodes per LN volume) - and then as a compromise they came to an agreement for 4 LN volumes, but based on the weird pacing of the anime I can only imagine that they were probably already producing stuff when they were still discussing how far to adaptate - and now we see the result. Considering Diablo got an entire side-story episode dedicated to him (alongside Shizu in EP24), I got the impression that the committee really wanted to sell some Diablo merch and only accepted the compromise after the side-story episode was settled to be included. |
|
| I have to admit slime is genuinely fun to watch. I usually find fantasy shows hyped by mal very mediocre, but this just feels right. Ofcourse Shizu was the only worthwhile character and they wasted her, but whatever |

| Nice to see that the forum is more quiet than the previous episode was full of salt, well just makes it clear that many people do not know what kind of anime is watching and demands things that do not correspond. Mod edit: Added spoiler to the picture so it takes less space. |

| modern anime was a mistake i dont know how to feel about memes making it into them but at least it shows the staff is having fun so there's that. episode had quite a bit of plot progression for the title of grandmaster he sure looked like a pretty causal MC-kun of like any LN though just his kick had quite the bang so i don't doubt his strength. |
 |
| One could argue that the way they chose to censor Milim in the beginning might actually make it more lewd depending on how one looks at it. XDD Anyway, I wasn't expecting the story to head in this direction. Rimuru meeting Yuuki was awesome and I loved their conversation with all the references, we need more of that stuff. xD Wasn't expecting that Rimuru would become a teacher, looking forward to see what happens next. |

| What a great episode! That reference to salt bae hahahah good job guys xD |

Atavistic said: yuuki is japanese, he can't be a weeb, dude seriously?This episode was okay enough (a reasonable change of pace and a nice reconnection to one of this show's two good characters in Shizu), but Rimuru's been in that world for two years? The show has not really done a lot to make the passage of time clear, so I'd assumed it had only been a few months that he'd been in that world. The new character was pretty dull (and of course he'd be a massive weeb), and all the references didn't do anything for me whatsoever (is the show saying that Rimuru had a photographic memory back in his original world, given that he could perfectly recreate all that manga?). Also, a salt bae meme in 2019? Seriously? |
 |
| Yuuki looks strong but maybe he's actually weak. |
Farabeuf said: Yeah, I saw that too. What an incredibly random thing to pop up. Loved the mention of Oh My Goddess too! dank meme is dank. |

| ππ SALT BAE REFERENCE HYPE ππ Ok, I admit giving that Japanese guy a bunch of manga's so the guy can see it with his own eyes was cute. |

Ikr lolololol Rimuru looks so frkn WRONG! He looks so... Scary XD jaw201 said: Considering just how far this episode got, and considering what they cut out, I would expect us to actually hit that volume 4 cliffhanger by the end of Episode 23. And all of the little references to other manga series (Houseki No Kuni), and even that forth wall break with Yuuki having an issue of Shounen Sirus where Rimuru is on the front cover. I thought this episode was very fun, and we also have Rimuru starting to come into his own as an active protagonist. the Anime is like , " Im sure LN and Manga Readers have already told you guys that we have skipped Shitton stuff . so... Just go Buy the manga Buy the LN! pftt " Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

| So these 20 episodes covered a span of two years since Rimuru came to this world. Makes sense considering all the events that have been happening... Ingrassia has automatic doors? Well now. That's more advanced than I expected... Hey! Is Belldandy THE Belldandy that I'm thinking of? I mean there's only one Belldandy in anime who's more iconic than any other Belldandy.. Glass Mask! I'm going to have to watch that someday... Rimuru is a Manga Processor! He should just write manga and spread it all over the world! Land of the Lustrous! Wait...is this anime allowed to do that? Yuuki is a cool guy. It's refreshing to have Rimuru interact with another person from his country after so many episodes. So Summoned Children are expected to live only 5 years...And Rimuru plans to change that? Well these children look like trouble. Good thing Rimuru knows how to keep a cool head. |

| LOL They actually ate the Charybdis. I remember thinking in the last episode it looked good enough to eat. Also Rimuru bathing with the hotties. This episode had a lot of heartwarming moments. Rimuru going on a journey alone brings back memories from the first episode. He's surrounded by a lot of wonderful monsters who respect him and serve him but it's nice to see him discover new things on his own. It was nice seeing him get impressed by the glass and automatic doors. Someone as powerful as Rimuru who can create manga, albeit to the dismay of his Great Sage oneesan, is still impressed by glass. It must have been so nostalgic for him. Those kids are already ten years old, they're going to die soon! :( ALSO that SALT BAE reference lol |

mickbis said: Fede_5000 said: I knew that this would happen when the staff said to adapt all the manga until today, by order of the committee, the thing is that at least if they leave with a certain scene it will be an epic ending. and they gonna hype that event to the point that it could boost LN sale even more what do you mean by that? I mean, why it's gonna hype if Rimuru's the one defeated though? or it isn't really defeated, instead of he's manipulating her or something like that? |
Abyhape said: what do you mean by that? I mean, why it's gonna hype if Rimuru's the one defeated though? or it isn't really defeated, instead of he's manipulating her or something like that? I think mickbis is refering to those who keep complaining about Rimuru being some OP Gary Stu who easily resolves everything without even trying with his power and "talk-no-justsu". |
