I read a lot of comments about how boring the latest season of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is and that it is all just about Meeting, Meeting, Meeting - but, after watching it, I can say that, it is still worth it and I still feel the excitement I first felt on it's first season. It's not boring for me, it is just a little slow, but I like it that way. How about you?
⚠️WARNING! SPOILER AHEAD!⚠️
I just finished watching the latest season of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, until episode 13. I was able to finish it in one day, doing it in between some house chores and hiving. To be honest, I don't have the plan to watch it yet. I planned to watch it once all the episodes are out. But, then, after reading some comments in social media on how boring the latest season is and that it is all just meeting, meeting, meeting and a lot more meetings, that push me to start watching it and check it for myself yesterday.
And it's true that the meetings that takes place is a lot more than any actions scene. Some may really find it boring. But, I didn't find it that Way. In fact, I got excited with those meetings scena because that means there's another progress on Rimuru's nation. I really love the fact that they let us see how their nation prospers, or how they planned their another endeavor to make their nation grow bigger and stronger.
It's not like other anime where they skip all that, in this series, they show from the planning and then show the results later. And so, I can't understand the others why they want just all about battles and wars. How will the story unfold if they all just expect battles in every episode. Rimuru only wants peace and to be recognized by humans, and he's doing everything to make that happen. He's also building connections with everyone, which I find a good plan. He's more focus on developing his country than to go to wars.
But if another nation wants war, and when it comes to power, they all have that. And they show their power with their fights with Hinata and the crusaders, as well on the second season. It just shows too how his people grow stronger, as they can fight them without having a hard time, or maybe just a little. In the end, they win that short battle and they have another meeting, and they resolve another misunderstanding. And this lead to another celebration, but now with Hinata and the Crusaders, as well as Luminous.
That's why I like this series, seriously, it gives me the satisfaction scenes that I crave. It's slow and it's all talk, but it's not a nonsense talk, it all makes sense, as it is all part of the story. And I am actually craving for more. I know there's a lot to look forward in the upcoming episodes because of the recent scenes, that's why I am more than excited while waiting for now. How long do I have to wait again ? Who knows, but it is still ongoing, so maybe 2 to 3 months ? Aghh! I can't wait ANYMORE !
I'm really excited about the business plan between Rimuru and the merchant Mjöllmile. They are cooking something amazing and I feel like reading the manga to see and know more about it. Also, the Labyrinth, where Ramiris is, will be involved too. Omg! See! There's really a lot to look forward in every season of this anime series. And that's all just the planning. And I am really glad that they showed this part in the anime and didn't cut it. Because of this, I am waiting in my seat, trembling in excitement. Oops, sorry for the spoil. Tehe.
For this new series, i'd like to give it a 9/10!
