This anime is dope and the worldbuilding is near OP level but is the very slow pacing holding this anime back?

Tensura was always known for it's worldbuilding, so you would need to slow down sometimes in order to fully appreciate it.

I somewhat agree with this ngl.


If this was "any other anime", I would have already dropped it.

Yeah, it's not Log Horizon, where bunch of irrelevant characters in fantasy setting are sitting at the table and are talking about irrelevant bullshit for entire season and nothing comes out of it.

No, I would rather an anime have time to stew and actually develop than rushing through the main plot points (looks over shield hero)

No. it does what it wanted to do perfectly. it was always about the world building. it's not the greatest thing ever but an extremely good show and it fairly has what it deserves in terms of ratings and popularity

It is the low iq mal fanbase inflating this show's score that is. Imagine having a nearly full red review bar and collapsing poll results. Yet this fanbase still calls any critic a shonent@rd and hates on any competitors.

It is a international war crime how this score still has managed to stay above an 8. Mal brainrot 101

@Piromysl have you read the lns or heard what they said. Tensura is exactly like this. The only reason this anime is still going is because of the manga adaptation which has very well drawn art and can hit a shonen fanbase. The series is just not good so pointless to hype it as peak fiction. No big twists, build up suspense. Rimuru is just too op. Might well as go play jrpg since at least it has more action and it does everything the animes does.

But tensura is never going to top polls again let one win anime of the season. crunchyroll stopped promoting it.

I've only seen the anime and don't know much about the source material. But from what I've seen so far and heard from the source readers. It's best known for world-building and it takes time to build a good fantasy world. So if anything slow pacing is actually good for this show

no I don't think so the pace is perfect every isekai anime have a tendency to rush the story. They are perfectly showing the strategy meetings and the assigned jobs to all the characters which I prefer to watch they greatly showing the situation of each kingdoms apparently I don't have a problem with its pace.

The flapping mouths are hibdering the anime.
I already read that on the manga.
I'll drop this anime so hard after Hinata's battle. Precisely because I already know the rest of the season will be people sitting around a table and talking endlessly.

If the anime just portrayed that world instead of keeping all the "worldbuilding" to indoors, it would be a lot more entertaining.

And I mean this 3rd season.
The previous two did a lot of outdoors worldbuilding, and were amazing.

If you've read the light novel, you might actually fall asleep at some points. I've done that. They yap more in there than in the anime :)
I don't mind the slow pace in many series that I can see having 24+ episodes or more season to look forward to. Because it's just a build up for something better.
When it's 12 episodes, people whine about so much skipped parts so they are never satisfied.

Not at all,

that's how Tensura is, an anime which is rich on worldbuilding and not just action most of the time.

I hope the studio keeps it this way :)

Pacing isnt great but its more the lack of genuine threats that Rimuru can face with his utopia that is holding series back. Everything feels way too easy for him and the fact that he could revive his folk last season that died and have everything with them still feel normal and have him 100% beloved does make the world feel like a different kind of cult in a way and with the amount of abilities and convenient tools that he has, its hard to care for these meetings and fights if we know Rimuru's way too OP in every sense to feel challenged and have his country be in potential peril. Better antagonists or threats to his country makes those meetings and buildup far more interesting.

The focus is predominantly on policy. Near the end (LN 19-20), the emphasis shifts almost entirely to fighting/action.

This anime have some great cast of characters, also world buliding. Not to mention their power system too.

Lots of discussions and round table conference this season.

I'm kinda use to it. Well, slow pacing? I don't know about it since I'm anime only fan of this.
I need somebody who can love me at my worst
No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first
And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand
I can fill those places in your heart no else can
Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah
I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

Imo it's well written, builds up tension and isn't "Rimuru is just OP"-driven at all. It's what he does with his powers, how he grows and how people react on him which makes the series appealing.

@Braincoke if you want a well written story, you need to aim for a grand climactic narrative and heavily build up and foreshadow towards it. Not bore people through meetings.

It's a 50/50.

I do kind of like the world building and whatever meeting they were doing but at the same time the season kinda removes the hype that goes to the next episode's fight between Rimuru and that Knight Lady.

Regardless, it's a 24-episode season, so, in conclusion, I don't really mind...

Also, I'M SUPER HYPED FOR THE NEXT EPISODE!!!!

World building..., y'all must be 12 this is a dumb anime thats only redeeming features are action and characters. If you think for a second the "World building" is anything more that useless filler you should probably smoke another joint.

5+ episodes of everyone talking and sucking Rinmarus dick.
