THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I guess this show is trying to flesh out Clayman's personality as much as possible.

Another important character from this episode is Leon as he had his conversation with Guy Crimson. His partner Velzard also showed up at that palace. Honestly, this episode's pacing felt slow but was kinda interesting to see high level tier demons making their presence.

The pacing is as usual...

Now we got to know why Milim is behaving like this, But sure Rimuru will do something about it

At last the important guy "Guy Crismon" made his appearance and Velzard too.

A good episode... looks like the action's gonna start next week

If it looks like I stand no chance I’ll run away and think up a new plan, but otherwise, I should see how strong it is with my own eyes, right?

I guess, no action this week as well. I was hoping that it would start this week, but I guess I'll have to wait for another week. But hey, we're getting to see some important-looking faces in the show. I hope Milim goes to her past cheerful side soon. It's hard seeing her like this. Clayman is pissed as usual.

We got to see demon lords, Leon and Guy Crimson who's the oldest Demon Lord having a conversation and Velzard also appeared in this episode. I really hope we start to heat up next week. I'm just hyped at this point to see what it has in store for me.

Still in the preparation phase, this time from the Demon Lords.

Well well, the word of Veldora's resurrection has reached the ears of Clayman, and this one step has equalized the playing game between Rimuru and said Demon Lord. Glad to see Milim and Sky Queen Frey back from the long absence, and it seems that she's gained some gifts from her bestie Rimuru. But all of these just doesn't measure up to the altruistic Demon Lord who just wants absolute control, and making Milim his doll is but one small part of the plan.

The pre-Walpurgis banquet, with Leon Cronwell's arrival into the chamber of old friend Guy Crimson, and discussing their plans over Clayman and Rimuru. One of 4 True Dragons, the White Ice Dragon Velzard makes her first appearance due to the news and fact that her brother the Storm Dragon Veldora has awakened, and Rimuru has a link to him for breaking his seal. It all adds up with the connection, which makes Walpurgis all the more interesting for the higher Demon Lords.

Walpurgis is gonna happen soon, and it'll put all the waiting and pacing of the 1st half of Part 2 worth its run for the action-packed 2nd half.

Another great build up episode with some new characters introduced. We even got to see Veldora's big sis. Guy and Leon seems like interesting characters. Man I can't wait for Rimuru to show up in walpurgis. Looking forward to next episode.

Hard to believe we’re already at the halfway point for this season already! Another great set up episode. Seeing Clayman abuse Milim like that animated was hard to watch. Fuck clayman.

Finally get to see Guy and Leon animated too and they look great. Loved their dynamic today. Leon wasn’t having any of Guy’s flirtatious advances lol.

Next week is when peak tensura starts, so hype.

Of course, the other demon lords are also starting to doubt Clayman
AA, that Veldora has a sister, that was a surprise for me xd

I really love this episode, I got to see what really happened to my beloved Milim but seriously, I didn't think Clayman's personality was that bad or worst and worst of all, the one who gave Milim the necklace is also deceitful if she and Clayman really has a pact or promise? I must say, she's deceiving Clayman at the moment but I still haven't grasp what her true intentions at the moment. While she was introduced sometimes, she wasn't really given concrete characteristics so this is a good episode to watch with her on it.

Then Cromwell takes the 2nd half which is really intriguing because so many Demon Lords was introduced in this episode and I will probably be looking forward on their agenda and roles in the story.

I love animations like this to properly flesh out the characters instead of just fighting every scene without even a story or plot, that would just be a dumb game...
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Starting to really like Diablo. Him repeating the same line makes him look so incredibly confident in his abilities to take over the nation XD

Controlling Milim is one thing, but punching her and kicking her like that was uncalled for. I know she can take a lot, but still... Was hard to watch that.

Interesting second half of the episode, with Shizue's foster father and Guy Crimson. Even got the introduction of one pretty lady claiming to be Veldora's sister. Guy Crimson is a funny guy though, with his advances on Leon and Leon turning him down over and over again. I liked their dynamic. They both seem to be aware of Clayman's meddling and that Rimuru is pretty much on their radar as well.

So many Demon Lords. It was great seeing them. Especially Guy Crimson and Leon Cromwell, who I forgot about.
As for Clayman, he is a joke of a Demon Lords that even Guy and Milim look down upon.

Also, to think that Veldora would have a sister. I can't wait to see their reunion. XD

Rimuru has sent all his forces to their designated posts, now its his fellow demon lords getting the focus before walpurgis starts. Clayman is absolutely a horrible bastard. A true scumbag I cannot wait for Rimuru to smack around. Having fellow demon lord Frey join in to trick Milim, making her essentially Clayman puppet. Hate to see it, poor Milim thinking Frey was her friend. I cannot wait to see Milim absolutely crush Clayman for this bullshit. Frey though definitely seems like she's not totally onboard with following Clayman, so I could see her betraying him later on. Maybe even unleashing Milim herself. We've seen him in the new opening for a while now but its good to finally meet the demon lord Guy Crimson! He's certainly got a personality on him. Making direct passes at Leon Cromwell, who's also a bastard himself btw, never forget what he did to Shizu. But the conversation between Guy and Leon was very interesting. Both speaking about how all the events Rimuru put into motion could've happened. They each figured out parts of it but not the whole thing. Its funny to see them all underestimate Rimuru for being "just a slime", especially Clayman who's totally fallen for the lie Rimuru spread about Veldora taking out the Falmuth army. They're all gonna be in for a surprise with Rimuru at walpurgis

Yes, Gii (or Guy) is very sexy, and his thirst for Cromwell is satisfying my sexual fantasy.

But this anime's Demon Lord system has one thing that I hate so much it destroy my fetish.

Because true demon lord.... (R-18 spoiler)


So Carrion is a perfect match for me, he's very strong even though he's not a true demon lord.

Didn’t like seeing Clayman hit Milim like that but I laughed a lot at when Diablo said I’ll be back soon twice lol. I’m not bothered by the buildup and dialogue tbh and people need to understand that not everything needs to be about a huge fight scene to make an anime good imo. Looking forward to the next episode.

They're really taking this one pace at a time. I really thought they would adapt the Benimaru and Co vs Clayman army fight but instead went with setting the stage for Walpurgis. Which in its own way is superb. Leon and Guy's conversation is just like how I imaged when reading the LN, all the conspiracies and the stage set for what's gonna be the next big thing is set bare.

Can't wait for the war and the banquet to start.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

The voice acting for White Ice Dragon Velyard is nice, but the couple episodes up until now has only been about build up, they really needed to add some different scenes to avoid making things dull with only dialogues or more add perspectives. especially how the episodes for this season is limited.

Did Erald's group teleport back to Thalion at the start of episode? I thought in episode before this they said teleport isn't normally used to transport living beings or non-monsters. Or is it case only for large groups?

they are high elves, if you watch ep 1 carefully he mentioned that it's his homunculus and it's not his main body...
better not to skip these parts they are important... even in ep 2 homunculus is mentioned for Kagali

I'm slowly getting really annoyed at the amount of talking. 2 hours into this 2nd part of the season there has been 0 action. I don't mind a little bit of setup, and I actually like the plot too but this is too much. Also, from the title of next episode "The signal to begin the banquet" i get the feeling that once more it will just be an episode of talking.

Build up episode once again, but this one was way more interesting than the preivous ones. We saw a lot of important looking characters. And most of them looked really badass. The designs were beautiful.

Everyone from Rimuru Tempest is heading out.
But this episode was focused on the Demon Lords.

Espically, The worst one, Clayman. They're fleshing out his personality as Stark700 said. And that was done very well. I don't mind him getting tortured to death in the end.

But the most interesting part was with Guy and Leon. The conversation was pretty interesting. Seems like the merchant Leon is getting his information from is someone we know.

Guy's VA aka the one and only ZURA! I mean Katsura is pretty good for his character. I expected someone with a deeper voice.

And one of the four dragons, Velzard, seems like she doesn't wanna spend time with the Demon Lords.

Next episode will be the main event.

While the expeditionary force faces Claymen's army Rimuru's other allies are enacting other parts of the plan huh. Claymen's too arrogant for his own good tbh. Its nice to see Milim again. So the reason Clayman was able to do soo much was because he used underhanded tactics to subdue her then. Guess he figured one on one he won't last against her. The meeting between Crimson and Leon Cromwell though was pretty interesting. To think that Crimson's the same age as Milim though and like her is one of the most senior of demon lords. To think that Veldora had such a cute sister in the form of Velzard though. If anything the actions that Rimuru has taken so far has provoked an interest into him from the senior demon lords as well. Overall a quiet ep that ep that focused on world building and expansion of the demon realm by introducing the characters of Crimson, Frey and Velzard and reintroducing us to Leon. At the same time its nice to see what happened to Milim as well. Walpurgis though looks to be an interesting event to behold next ep.

Maintaining a balance of things is what you call competent writing, anime is a pretty forgiving medium, but multiple hours of exposition is alot to expect your audience to sit through.
Same goes for pure action lacking any substance.
This series in particular has proven itself to be quite good at worldbuilding, so seeing an arc so poorly executed hurts.

This is bad really bad. More than 50% of the season is repetitive exposition. I'm guessing most people in this forum are manga readers so they don't care. Let's be honest, this is not world building. This is blatant exposition.

If its all world building as some say why did we spent half of the season in a room instead of the moments like rimuru meeting citizens of eurasania for transportation. How do the citizens feel about all this, what do they even look like. How does the intel gathering process work.Where is a moment where rimuru addresses the resurected. How they feel about coming back to life. what has changed with shion mentally, emotionally. Hell, tell me about the new uniforms. Show me the world don't tell me about.

I was really hyped about this season. Now I'm not sure. I don't know why I'm still watching. Maybe it's because it's something familiar. I honestly have enjoyed that black company thing than this.

Good thing we have so much world building episodes, makes season 3 and 4 that more likely. Week after week we get this buildup and as soon as action starts we will see it was worth it. Even if they animate the next episodes in MS paint it will still be a spectacle like no other. The slime anime is in my opinions top 3 of past 5 years.

but you are really mindless one,

Tensura is not an action and shounen anime. It's just a normal worldbuilding fantasy story. Some fights just became a part of this series because they are needed. Even in the LN 8-9, it's shown that it completely focuses on world-building!

I'm wondering if Rimiru has taken note of just how strong Diablo is. He is probably around 10+ times stronger than Rimiru was before Rimiru became a demon lord.
Rimuru was already ridiculously strong at that point. Upon further consideration, Diablo is probably stronger than the average demon lord.
Outside of Rimiru and Veldora, he'd likely wipe Tempest.

I'll admit, the sooner Clayman gets his sorry backside kicked into the dumpster fire where he belongs, the better. How dare he punch and kick the possessed Milim like that!! >.<

Either way, this episode had a big focus on the other demon lords, including how Milim became under Clayman's control in the first place. Although Frey might be helping him, she does see him biting off more than he can chew and doesn't see him having his way for much longer.

Besides, we did get to see Milim being her bubbly and upbeat self during that flashback while talking to Frey and also showcasing her new claws as well as showing her the outfits she brought back from Tempest. A small, yet cute moment. =3

The meeting between Leon and Guy was very interesting, as they are aware of Rimuru being a demon lord and that they know that Veldora has awoken once more. Velzard, Veldora's older sister, looks intimidating and sexy, so I do hope we get to see more of her, even if she's not taking part in the upcoming Walpurgis meeting.

The first half of this series has been very heavy on the dialogue, but I don't see that as a demerit, honestly. It gives us world-building between the main cast as well as the antagonists and how they're planning their next moves. I love the action scenes as much as the next guy, but as much as I understand why some users here hate the lack of action this second season, I wish they would word their arguments a little bit more wisely other than "less words, more fighting" amongst a few others.

This does give me optimism that the next 6 episodes will be promising, both in terms of character/world building and action. =)

When everyone ask when the fight begins, someone said next week bruh next week. After they wait for a week, then they get a prank. Good well you will ask this again and wait for another few weeks again.

World building huh, how many times i hear that bullshit everytime this show ruined many people expectation. Before it started, Everyone were overhyped and overrated this show while other shows actually can give better plot, charracter developement there even if they are in same or different genre. Spoiler that should let them feel relief now is nothing more than just bullshit lol. I mean if you have read LN/WN before then you probably know better than anyone, right? (it shouldn't be 100% accurate, but atleast more than 0% is better lol).

Okay, first half of this episode is about Clayman bad motive and second half other Demon Lord/Dragon are bitching/bad mouthing Clayman, somehow they talk about Veldora and Rimuru but look like they get wrong info about them. It just average.
