focus. Also, there were no stakes. Rimuru and the others completely decimated the enemy. I know Rimuru has done that before in the anime many times, but when it's a movie you would expect epic battles, right? None of the fights were interesting. In summary, this movie could have been a lot better and did not capitalize on what I think makes the anime series good at all. It feels like they didn't put in much effort. It still manages to be passable though, I'm sure many fans of the series would still enjoy it. I can't really recommend the movie ion good faith though, you don't have to see this.
