More information will be revealed at a later date.Synopsis "Rimuru Tempest" is the new name of a slime in a fantasy world taken by a former 37-year-old human Satou Mikami after he is killed by a passing robber. Broken free from ordinary, stale past life, his fresh adventure in a fantasy world as a slime monster with unique abilities begins. The series is written by Fuse with illustrations by Mitz Vah. It was published under the "Let's Be Novelists" website from 2013 to 2016. The series has also been published by Micro Magazine since 2014. A manga adaptation of the same name drawn by Taiki Kawakami began publishing since May 2015 in Kodansha's Monthly Shounen Sirius magazine. It currently has six volumes in publishing with the seventh scheduled to ship this Friday. Yen Press licensed the novels since December last year under the English title That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. The first volume debuted last month.

| I really like the mango, so it's a good news for me |
| @Robiiii eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy tbh didn't even surprise me since this name has been appearing everywhere |
 |
| I'm so familiar with this name because it always gets my attention when I was in bookstore, but I never read it as I think it would get adapted some day. I'm pretty interested to see an anime with a slime MC. |
| anime is fucking saved |
✧ |
| I remember wishing this to have an anime adaptation since both the manga and LN topped the montlhy rankings lol. |
 |
| You have to make a lot of efforts to make idols and younger sisters look like a good idea on your background. |
 |
| Not surprising considering the level of anticipation surrounding an eventual anime adaptation of this. Since I've heard about it so much and seen it in the rankings a lot, I'll go ahead and give it a try. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| To think that the novel i read two years ago became this popular...I hope kumo can also get an adaptation |
| I'm just surprised that it took this long for it to get an anime adaptation greenlit. |
 |
| Mushoku Tensei Anime when? Well, I'm looking forward to this. |
| I've heard about this novel a number of times around this site. Now it's finally getting an anime adaptation. Great news! |
| They actually announced the staff also... |
 |
| Omfg I actually thought this day would never come....THIS IS INSANITY! Goblin Slayer Grand Blue And now Tensei Shitara Slime... Next up... Neverland pls @salokannel2 This is crazy guys im going nuts |
| "a former 37-year-old human" rare to see a much older person as a MC of a isekai. This could be interesting. |
| "You can't spell slaughter without laughter". |
| Well I guess it was only a matter of time |
  |
Bro, even if MT needs an anime adaptation, it won't be any good if they do a 12 or 24 episode series covering just his childhood. IT needs some serious investment of time and quality to deliver something that can be at par with the novel! If rushed it might end like death March which is getting some serious backlash from many fans |
| More hype for this rather than goblin slayer . Hope the anime will have a good staff and good studio. |
 |
| Staff has already been announced. Director: Yasuhito Kikuchi Assistant Director: Atsushi Nakayama Series Composition: Kazuyuki Fudeyasu Character Designer: Ebata Ryouma Monster Designer: Takahiro Kishida Studio: 8-Bit Source: http://moetron.news/ --- have to go load more posts to see it |
| 8bit huh? seems like the female characters will be exploited |
 To-Do List:
|
| The best isekai light novel has finally getting it's own anime which is no surprise. Considering how popular it is and also ranks highly in both LN and manga sales.i expect it to be a 2 cour anime. It is also not a generic harem isekai series infact, i would not even call it a harem. |
| Another harem isekai adaptation, why ? Oh right, the selfinserts are a thing in Nippon. |
 |
| that was too long overdue... prise rimuru sama! tragedydesu said: Why should every ln adapration be a fucking harem ... Anyway ,it's highly rated enough and popular to give it a try it's not even a harem dude, WTF? Swagernator said: Another harem isekai adaptation, why ? Oh right, the selfinserts are a thing in Nippon. it isn't harem and the mc is obviously, it slime, what do you expect? |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |

 |
| i cant believe this day would finally come , cant wait! (havent change my profile pic sincce 2014) i love this series |
|
| It was bound to happen, with its popularity on the rise it was only the matter of time before it got its own anime... now we just need to pray for "Kumo Desu Ga Nani Ka" :3 |
| lol really... I'm gonna enjoy this (hopefully) XD |
 |
| Slime huh (i much prefer Tsuki) also 8bit doom sound Call me when Kono ga Game get adapted |

|
Harem tags get destroy by the lack of Pegu and Vegial ( They are more in debt to Rimuru than anything but you could consider this the first Slime's Harem anime ) |
| Because we're stupid that we love to have fun |
| I don't know if I should be happy or sad. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
'Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken' Gets TV Anime Adaptation My thoughs: Ok, that was predictable. The novel and manga are selling like crazy for some time and has the same feeling of Log Horizon. Maybe they were holding this novel to make a full run or a 2-cour adaption for a TV station. Studio: 8bit This anime is going to be a disaster. Another Isekai Smartphone and Death March trash. This studio screams low budget all over the place. If you're a fan of this novel prepare yourself. |

| In a Time were Fantasy stories have been saturated and isekai dominating, we are sure going to have a few good fantasy stories coming up this year. Goblin Slayer(Not an isekai but still damn good) Shield Hero Tensai Slime Isekai Izakaya Nobu ( ggod slice of life and food show) Overlord II(airing right now) |
Studio: 8bit RIP anime adaption |

| My god more isekai crap ... |
| >8bit kek rip adaptation |
Edward Elric > your waifu  |

| >LN >reincarnated >isekai hhahahahahahaha |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| I'm glad this is getting an adaptation, I was interested in reading this and I've heard some good things about this, so hopefully the adaptation will be good. |
| Oh wow. Hope they'll do this one right |

|
| 8-Bit and Yasuhito Kikuchi ... almost fucking RIP. The guy for Series Composition seems a little bit more competent tho but ... yeah, 8-bit. Urgh. Hate them as much as diomedea |
 |
| Really? Studio fucking 8-bit? I expect it to be shit. If it won't be complete garbage I'll be pleasantly surprised. Goblin Slayer got White Fox so I was optimistic that Slime wouldn't get fucked over, so much for that. |
| :3 |
| "Light Novel adaptation" "Lol I bet this is another fucking isekai" *clicks topic* AND OF COURSE |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |
Robiiii said: Omfg I actually thought this day would never come....THIS IS INSANITY! Goblin Slayer Grand Blue And now Tensei Shitara Slime... Next up... Neverland pls @salokannel2 This is crazy guys im going nuts Dont forget Arifureta cuz this 2 with the slime one were one of the higher selling LN that didnt have an anime yet so if one got it, then it was just a matter of time for slime one to get the same treatment. As for Neverland from what i seen in this past months the sells for it keep rising, simply getting more popular so personnaly i am expecting an anime of it in 2019 thats why kinda still stopping myself from going and reading it dont wanna spoil myself :P |
