| this leave a bad taste in my mouth, while i do like veldora, this is not how you end a series. i cannot think anything else other than they failed to meet the deadline and had no choice but to resort to this filler. |
| press f to pay respects |
 |
| Considering that they have a whole second season in the works, and that 2 episodes would have been too short to complete any of the upcoming arcs, I'd say the fillers did their job in "filling in the time" and acting as a promo to the next season. Overall I'd say the anime was alright, started slowly like the LN. A lot of stuff got switched around to make things more lighthearted, though I wish they'd show a bit of the badassery from the LN/WN this season, I can wait for it. They've set it up real nice so 2nd season will be all action packed. More exciting things will come, we haven't even seen Rimuru's true form yet. They only teased the likes of Baretta and Diablo, and I still haven't had my labyrinth Disneyland yet! |

supernicolasman said: don't know what everyone is smoking, it's definitely one of the best isekai shows in a very long time and i've seen quite a lot of them. I just saw the first 10 episodes of shield hero but that was so meh that i had to drop it. This one has an interesting world with an interesting plot (sid meier's civilization anyone) with a cool mc as a slime and very cool side characters (my fav is gobuta for obvious reasons). Anyway giving it a 8/10 for the season, definitely one of the best new shows that came out in 2018 with rascal does not dream of bunny girl. It's very entertaining and i can't wait for next year to see how slime and his kingdom fare. Shield hero is worse, but both of them are no different from your trash isekai. Neither of them have anything going for them. |
| you're cool |
| I think maybe they should've swapped around episode 24 and 25 to end the season on a higher note but nevertheless there's really no issue. Overall, I thought this was a pretty good isekai. Definitely miles above some of it's other brethren. What I think worked really well for Slime especially in the first half is how instead of trying to 'deconstruct' or try something new just ran with isekai tropes as such. They took all the tropes and just made it really pleasant to watch. I'm with a couple of other people in agreeing that the second half suffered a bit and wasn't nearly as interesting as the first, especially the final arc of this season but I thought the Shizu episode was great. All the character were pretty likable and production was pretty good so all in all this was a really nice entertaining show. 8/10, Looking forward to S2. |
 |
| I definitely needed that recap low key. It was very cool, I was always interested in what the dragon was doing, like if he was a spirit or if he was just sitting alone again. But it was just a ok end to the show, I greedily wanted more Rimuru. |
| What a way to end the anime xD Probably the worst episode hahaha but no worries because it doesn't affect me, because it was more than obvious that the anime ended at episode 23. Won't say much because i already commented about my enjoyment in the eps 23. I'm glad that we have another season announced, glad this anime did well. 8/10 |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| It had a great start for me but somehow fell a little flat in the second half. Still, an enjoyable watch. 8/10 |
| well, that was fucking pointless. Anyway, forgetting that episode, it had some problems but it was a fun little anime to watch. 7/10 |
 |
| YIKES! Ending it with a recap episode. Shame. I wanted to see more side story of a tsundere dragon , not a recap episode. Anyway: first half of the show was decent. Then this anime started to become a disaster. |

| If this is the last episode of the first season (25 one according to MAL) then why is their another entry for this episode : https://myanimelist.net/anime/39607/Tensei_shitara_Slime_Datta_Ken_-_Kanwa__Verudora_Nikki All in all I actually liked this because we never got to see Veldora like ever, so it was great to here his and Ifrit's banter and slowly becomes friends. I knew that the actual story ended at 23 and I knew this had something to do with Veldora so I am not that bitter, I do understand why people are because we just got a beautiful recap(AMV style) in episode 23. Ok I didn't think I would miss this after it ended but already I do feel something is missing. (I gave it a 9/10 just because this is the best Isekai I've seen) |
 |
| Whoever have the idea to put a recap in the last episode of any anime should be punished, i clearly not enjoy it at all, at least they should put something intriguing to build up people expectation for the 2nd season.. 1/5 for this episode 7/10 for overall of the anime |
 |
| Looks like the series ended at episode 23. At least Season 2 is coming. |

| MAL needs to put this at 24 episodes, this wasn't a 25th episode it was a recap. |
| Da Fack did I just watch? When I read that this episode was Verudora focused, I thought he would talk about his past life or something. Not this cheap crap. Why do this? They should have axed this episode. Nobody asked for this. Now I'm not sure if I should give it a 7/10 or 8/10. I really dislike how the director handled the second cour of this series. First half was a 9/10 and love it a lot. Second half was just atrocious. |
Gythia said: Chrome_Falcon said: I was wondering what they are going to do with Veldora's original story. Turns out it is him narrating everything that has happened so far to Ifrit. I will be lying if I say that I am not disappointed. They could have atleast announced beforehand that it would be a filler. They should have used this episode to better flesh out the main story instead of skipping stuff. They did tho, they announced that Episode 24 is going to be an anime original with Shizu and Diablo as the main character and that Episode 25 would be Veldora's Diary (which is basically side-stories about Veldora and Ifrit and what they were doing inside Rimuru) Yes, they did announce that last two episodes are going to be side stories. But this was no side story. This was a filler. I don't consider this episode for rating the main story anyway. |
| Huh... guess this is the end? Not quite the way I'd choose to end off the series. In any case, not sure how the source material was structured and if the anime was a faithful adaptation. I was under the impression this was going to be a peaceful slower paced series at the start (which was nice in its own way), but it went away from that and started up building up the demons lords. Yet till the end after 24 episodes, there really isn't an established antagonist to Rimuru that we know much about. Not going to hold too much against it since it does have a season 2 and won't leave us hanging in that regard. But since it's not exactly a relaxing chill paced show nor do we really have a grasp on the overarching story and the main antagonist, it's hard to place the finger on how I feel about it. |

| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| Veldoya is just too much of a tsundere. XD The way him and Ifrit interacted was just so much like a couple meeting for the first time and getting it on. That touch between the two like, "Ah so warm" and "It tickles". Multitasking to the finest be like watching his kid grow up in Rimuru and playing shogi on the sides and on the go with analyzing the prison(so he says XD) was the true parent feeling. All over, a great reminiscence for the whole show. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| SHOGI! Manga are a splendid compendium of knowledge! Basically an episode that summarizes the story so far behind Veldora and Ifrit's perspectives. I wanted to watch the Shogi match... |
 |
| this felt more like an OVAish, meh. had a good ride on the show most of the time, but i felt it was too fast. i started reading the manga like last yearish and the anime completed it. sure it could be sourced elsewhere. |
| anime/manga version of steam would be awesome - https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1625396 |
| So my question is the episode that got released is it the 25th or is it the 24.5 special which has its own entree: https://myanimelist.net/anime/39607/Tensei_shitara_Slime_Datta_Ken_-_Kanwa__Verudora_Nikki Pretty confused still as some other sources say this is only a 24 episode anime rather than 25. |
 |
| A recap, not that I mind but ugh, whatever, moving on. 7/10 for the first season. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Still uncertain if this "last" episode is actually its own entree or not, but in general if we look at it from a complete separate perspective then this recap was really well done in both pacing and actual story capturing. I pretty much already said what's on my mind with the 23rd episode's ending, but I am really looking forward to the second season! All in all a good watch. |
|
| I am a fan of this series, but man, this episode is just shit. If the anime can be finished with 22 or 23 episodes, then finish it that way, no need to drag it out. |
| “What do you do when there is an evil you cannot defeat by just means? Do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil? Or do you remain steadfastly just and righteous even if it means surrendering to evil?” ― Lelouch Vi Britannia |
| This episode is actually an adaptation of veldora's diary, which appears after every volume of the manga. They just combined all the volume's worth of veldora's diary into 1 episode of anime. |
 |
| what a weak way to end the season. Another flashback.. I hoped we would atleast see something new about Veldora. Final score is a 6. Its a generic wish fullfillment isekai, with OP MC and harem. That this has a score well above 8 is disgusting. |

vipergod said: Kimurah said: If I would make the promise to punch you in the face with one week anticipation and as soon as the week has passed I actually punch you in the face, would you be okay with me saying "hey I warned you, what did you expect?" cmon mate u r not making any sense! its ep 24.5 and ppl are upset after watching it bcuz it was a recap! but we already knew that its gonna be a recap! if u dont like it just dont watch it! it was a Ova or whatever! What do you mean I'm not making any sense? it's a threat stablished with plenty of time and the one getting the punch would obviously get upset. I could swap the setting with a goverment announcing a new tax with a 6 month notice and people would still be upset once they reached the dateline and be forced to pay the taxes. No one likes taxes and at the same time, no one likes recaps becase they are unnecesary and a season finale it's a terrible choice by the production staff. They could just ended it on episode 24 or better yet use that airing slot to add one more episode to the final arc with Shizu's kids and push over episode 24 as a finale episode 25. Why are fanboys like you so butthurt that they don't want to hear negative or contrairan opinions? "it's gonna be a recap, just don't watch it" of course people are going to watch it AND JUDGE IT, it's in our right of freedom of speech. Probably the funniest or lamest I should say, is how YOU claim that you're ok with different opinions, but here you are, whinning and moaning like a little kid because others didn't like an expected recap vipergod said: CodeBlazeFate said: I mean, yes this is genuine. I know him (a lil), he's in one of the same clubs as him. I've seen some of his comments and reviews, so I can vouch. Bruh fuck KNMW and Re:Zero; those pieces of shit deserve it. Also, he's still the same guy that gave Houseki no Kuni a 10, Violet Evergarden an 8, Yuru Camp an 8, Fate/Zero a 9, Code Geass a 7, and Devilman (piece of shit) Crybaby an 8. He clearly isn't just hating on popular anime just cuz they're popular. Also, he gave KMNW a 5, not a 3. Still, chill. Plus, that mentality is literally an elitist mentality of "how dare you downvote the shows I like but like this stuff I consider garbage". well as said i have no problems with different opinions but some times i see patterns which is really weird . this dude was the first bad reviews in slime page but i can give u much better examples! ill make it clear once again im not saying all bad review on popular shows are fake but some certainly are fake. |

| Hmmmm... shouldn't they just made the last 2 episodes as OVAs? That kinda felt weird as a season finale. I was kinda hoping for a cliffhanger to make us hyped for season 2. I really like the series but the last 2 episodes kinda felt meh. Anyway, I am still looking forward for the Season 2! |
| does this mean there will be another one episode remaining? |
| Wow, there's only like 2 minutes of actual new animation. Thank god I did not watch the whole thing and waste my time. What's the point of a recap at the end of the series anyway? |

| Unfortunately this final episode is weak, so it failed to break the 10 wall. Still on 9/10. See you on 2020 ! |
| This recap was really bad, boring and useless. The first half of the season was better while the second half had pacing issues and at times it felt rushed. Overall: 8/10 |
| :I |
| Ah yes they fixed the anime entree, as thought this was only 24 episodes ;) |
|
| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- In general this recap was really well done in both pacing and actual story capturing. I pretty much already said what's on my mind with the 23rd episode's ending, but I am really looking forward to the second season! All in all a good watch and recap for it actually being a recap episode. |
|
| Well we all said this should've just had its own entry and whaddyaknow, the mods actually listened for once Meanwhile the last two eps of TLRD S2 are still incorrectly separated from its main entry for almost four years running smh, consistency pls |

HaXXspetten said: Well we all said this should've just had its own entry and whaddyaknow, the mods actually listened for once Meanwhile the last two eps of TLRD S2 are still incorrectly separated from its main entry for almost four years running smh, consistency pls LOL!! I was part of that argument trying to get them to merge those episodes back to the original show. I've honestly never finished the last few episodes because I was so mad about them being separated and was hoping they would merge them eventually but yeah...at this point I guess I should just fold >.> More on topic, I didn't hate this recap. Knowing what it was ahead of time (the title gives it away, honestly) I liked it quite a bit. It's probably the best way to prepare for S2, so I may rewatch this instead of the entire season when the time comes. |
 |
| Oh, good. Now it makes more sense and won't annoy those who watched it just to complete the series as it can just be skipped. Even I would have preffered to watch it later on separately, when I forgot what the season was about. As for the episode itself it was fine, as a recap it was even really good becase most of recaps just show you what you already saw, here we have at least some development of Veldora and Ifrit, pity it's just an audio recorded conversation, but still. |
  |
| And just like that, I raised the score of the main series from 2 to 3. Recaps are shit, and always deserve 1/10. |
| Why would you end your serie with a recap episode? Season 2 has already been announced so why not use this as an episode 0 for season 2 instead off when people have already completed the serie and dont need a recap |
| A total waste of time. The only new information is that Veldora is able to read Rimuru's memories and that Ifrit wasn't evil and treats Veldora with respect. |
| ok at least it's somewhat separated from the series as a whole now... which means we can bash this recap without bashing on the series , good, good. |
