| Well, the humans have brought the REAL beast out of the monster. No holding back, no mercy. Megiddo was beautiful! The animation, the chosen OST. Gave me chills! |

| Why is Rimuru absolutely unhesitant and remorseless killing thousands of people lmao that shit's kinda wack. He doesn't even seem enraged and shit lmao it looks like he's killing PEOPLE being CALM and CALCULATING. |

zorgabluff said: they arent humans, they are otherworlders. Beeings specifically summoned to be strong. Monsters arent monsters because they are strong, but because they are not human.Comander-07 said: I was going to complain that conveniently the otherworlders now were all much weaker than the characters we got in season 1, weakening field or not, they were all a bit too easily killed for supposedly very strong characters compared to their dominance last time. But they all got ended pretty brutally, which was nice. I even kinda felt bad for the girl atleast. Its not like it was their choice to get to this world and serve the kingdom. But atleast the mage and possibly the knight captain too are looking promising. Anyway I was not expecting the show to get so brutal, they are going for the "self insert wish fullfillmemt, who needs consequences, reviving the dead" trope after all.. so Rimuru actually killing 10.000 humans is something else. Ngl I hope he cant just revive them, even though I want the girl back. And yeah sure it got stretched out, was to be expected. The animation was good atleast. Nah, they’re strong for humans. Don’t forget tho that the monsters are monsters for a reason and have evolved because they’ve not only been named, but have been named by veldora by proxy. Shogo and co assume they’re stronger than monsters because up until now they’ve prolly only dealt with unnamed monsters (recall how week the original goblins are). Let’s also not forget that in the first fight they were respecting rimurus wishes/orders to not kill humans. Now they’ve been given the go ahead to massacre them. |

| Well the plus was that we finally got some action this week and it looked good. The negative is that it was handled in one of my least favorite ways. I really dislike when anime set up villans as irredeemable bad people so we are all supposed to cheer when the good guys slaughter them. I’m not saying every villan needs to be sypathetic or have backstories, but they don’t need to be portrayed as the most evil people to ever exist so that our protagonists can be completely in the right when they massacre them. It’s a lazy way to write villans and makes it easy for there to be no changes in many of the protagonists’ characters. I also wished that we saw more of Rimuru doing his thing this episode. I guess they pushed that to the next episode again. |

He is calm and calculating. Enlighten your self: The 7 stages of grief Shock and denial. This is a state of disbelief and numbed feelings. Pain and guilt. ... Anger and bargaining. ... Depression. ... The upward turn. ... Reconstruction and working through. ... Acceptance and hope. Most likely he should be at depression stage, but to me it seems he is at "Reconstruction and working through" - committing genocide. |
| Pretty brutal episode. Hakurou was savage throwing the sword guy's head to Shogo. Speaking about Shogo, he was a first-class scumbag, even killing off his one companion that was alive with his own hands, just to get a new power... Geld was also amazing just smacking down on Shogo while his limbs were rotting. That was pure torture and he deserved every single bit of it. Megiddo was pretty good, not what I had expected at first, but a solid way to assassinate a huge mass without too much noise. A demon lord is in the making! |

| After a slightly weaker than expected build-up episode last week, I was hoping this episode would be able to deliver. And bloody hell it did! I do like a challenging assault more than a one-sided flex of strength, but it this case, I'm glad that the plan to take out the four barrier pillars went super easily. Everyone got their objectives done and any soldier that got in their way was slain on the spot. Savage and brutal, but it had to be done to make Rimuru's plan a success. The highlight of the episode was Hakurou's rematch against the smiling assassin from before and boy did he teach this arrogant bastard a lesson. It also helped that this fight had some lovely animation and sound effects which made it more enjoyable. Even Geld was able to flex his strength against his opponent, Shogo, who went as far as to kill his own ally (disliked her, but was a sad way to see her killed off, though) to take her skill in order to help him in his fight, but was to no avail as Geld pummeled him into submission. Although Shogo's ally rescued him and took him back to camp, he killed his soul and took over his body. While that was happening, Rimuru made his move after the barrier pillars fell. The timing of the insert song as he cast Megiddo was spectacular and how quickly the death count went up was staggering. I know that this season's pacing is messier than season 1, but episodes like this do make up for that issue as it can still deliver some great animation and powerful moments which still leave goosebumps down my back. @pouckis The song is called Reimei by TRUE. It was used for the very first trailer for season 2 and it's also found on the same single from TRUE as the main OP, Storyteller. I hope this helps you. ^_^ |

| That one line at the start portraying the human army as rapists and looters due to a few horrible people left quite the bad taste in my mouth the whole episode, are there bad people in that army? yes, there has always been bad people in the army and there will always be but disregarding the lives of the whole army due to some fuckers is just... no. Why didn't they show the soldiers that were excited that after the battle they would go spend time with their loved ones? of course they can't, Rimuru is pure goodness so he can't be shown killing "innocent" people, right? |
| Absolutely brilliant episode. Easily the best episode of the season. |
| I loved this episode. Sweet justice was made that day. Maybe in the afterlife, they won't provoke someone with a friendly and caring heart. |
GatsuLTU said: I think that's fine of you to think. I just don't like it when people scream mental illness when it may not be the case.ByonKun said: Why are you attacking someone for enjoying this episode? If you watched the episode that these are not innocent humans but soldiers that are deliberately invading another nation. I will also tell you that Schadenfreude, the feeling of seeing karma happen to bad people, is normal for humans if it's not too much. Common soldiers are always following commands, how can you say that all of them are EVIL? In those times and like on most wars, men had to serve and go to war, even if you hated it and wanted to be with your family and loved ones. Everyone is happy in comments about genocide portrayed in rather friendly and bright anime, as if all 10k soldiers or w/e were baby killers or etc. I'd understand if this anime was gritty like Berserk and etc. but it's not. To sum up, genocides are terrible terrible things, I just felt bad and was sorry for those soldiers, even though it's just an anime, while most of people in the comments were like - wooohoo, genocide, kill every last of one them. Real genocide happens IRL, and everyone is like, damn, that is so sad and etc. Hypocrites and kids. Dunno why I'm getting worked up in MAL forums, where most of the users who post here are weeb kids and similar, while I'm 30 yo. |

| Everyone talking about how cool and amazing this episode was (which it is and was), but it’s also quite sad at the same time. Rimuru, someone who wanted to get along with everyone and did his best to make a city where all were welcomed, eventually came to the decision that the humans had to be killed for what they did, they had to pay the ultimate sacrifice for what they did to his citizens. What makes this really cool and interesting is the fact that his citizens, who as we see have the power to kill instantly, under Rimuru rules, choose to stand by what he says, even if that means getting injured, however, the minute he says “Don’t hold back” they don’t and fight with all their might The sad part is how Rimuru is wearing the mask, with the music being very quite in the background, and Rimuru just looks from above at all the carnage he is creating Still a cool and interesting episode, it’s just sad that he too is going down the same road as Milim |
| First of all, did Gerudo always have that many favourites or why is he 3rd most favourited character in Slimesekai? Also damn this episode was lit. |
| Go check out my latest review: https://myanimelist.net/profile/YeeYeeAss/reviews |
| Holy shit that was a fantastic episode! Seeing Shogo get the absolute shit beat out of him was so satisfying, sad he didn't get finished off though. Even more hyped for the next one! |

GatsuLTU said: Honestly, gave it 2. The genocide part and casually killing soldiers who are just doing their job (not evil like generals and commanders and the ones who issue orders) is terrible idea for a bright themed anime like this. Episode where Rimuru commits genocide with a calm head (not angry anymore, like after seeing dead friends). Anyway, a very sharp and awful turn for the anime. pretty garbage take, Rimuru is still as angry as could possibly be, proved by the crack in his mask, its just that he's controlling the anger(you'll see more of that anger more next episode). Also, the soldiers are just as guilty as the generals, they may not be as evil-willed but just following the orders of their superiors makes them just as guilty. Of course the issue of whether or not this tone fits with the rest of the anime is up to opinion, but to me its a nice fresh breath of air from what we've been getting the previous episodes. |

| When the old dude cut of the lads head It was funny asf, glad they got what they deserved... odd how they thought they could win without the magic barrier. |

Don't get me wrong, I'm ok with Rimuru killing the human army, the monster country was being treated as a non factor by most in the world and due to they being monsters and cutting on the profits of falmuth the church and said kingdom decied to go and kill them all i.e. commit genocide, it just so happen they underestimated the monsters and the tables turned and heck even if you didn't have a say in joining the army, soilders do sign up to die. My only problem with this episode is that scene at the start, it ruins the whole gray area of war and revenge for a simple good vs. evil. |
| The shitty Otherworlders all died. Those god damn Falmouth leaders and Majin are shitty people as well >;( |
 |
| Damn. This show truly took a dark turn. In 1st season this would be unthinkable. I love how Rinmaru transcended from boring Mary Sue to an actual well fleshed character, who is no longer gonna play nice. |
 |
This was me the entire episode seeing Falmuth get wrecked. |
 |
| YES. I was worried because of the last episode but damn... finally all of this human scum dies. I'm so hyped. It's especially satisfying how we can see the fear and hopelessness on all their faces. I'd be so mad if the kills weren't well made but boyy that is a concern of the past. IMO perfect dark moment. 10/10. NOBODY WILL SURVIVE |
 |
| Bruh stop saying this is genocide. It's not. It's war. They are soldiers. They are not innocent people like the ones they were gonna help slaughter just because they are monsters (you know, what ACTUAL genocide is about). They enlisted knowing what could happen. You fight, you might get killed. Also, the killing maybe wouldn't be happening if there wasn't a Demon Lord awakkening plan, but thinking diplomacy or words could change anything at that point is naive. Get fucked. |
I think all of us were like that. Ngl that was so satisfying. HAHA DIE TRASH |
|
| this episode was very cool with pretty battle, Rimuru will soon become demon lord :D |

Exactly my opinion. The story needed such a development and it fits perfectly. If dark stuff isn't your thing then just quit. There are plenty other anime out there |

| Love it! No mercy! Fucking love how the series doesn't pussy out from revenge via genocide like many shows. |

|
| Honestly, this episode just felt great to watch. Vengeance for messing with the boys. |
FierceVinegar said: not really ok with the fact the show is having the "good guys" basically kill thousands of people with alot of them being innocent and just in the army because They aren't even close to innocent. In case you missed something they slaughtered INNOCENT DEMONS WHICH WERE ONLY LIVING IN PEACE and with what reason? BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T MAKING THE SAME PROFITS. Of course it's understandable to maintain the wealth of ones country for the own population but to start directly a war without any negotiations was clearly to much. If this doesn't suit you then just drop this anime and search for a different one. There are plenty |

Thanks for the heads up anyway. |
