Its laughable that you think that we are anywhere close to the end. I would disagree with the comment that the story revolves around only Rimuru. I would say that it revolves around Rimuru and the country of Tempest. We still have yet to get to the true threat Rimuru has to face in this world. i think it's more laughable that you don't realize that there's only 6 episodes left. do you not know what a scenario is? don't bother replying until you realize i'm talking about the climax of the 2-cour season, and not the entire story. i forget how goddamn stupid anime fans are. i bet you failed literature class in high school but you still think you know what you're talking about because you watched a whole battle shounen and know how to talk about "power levels." what a disgrace The first volumes are a configuration of the world and the characters, but mainly the city, is not a story that must complete a cycle or climax when it is just showing the tip of the iceberg of a whole universe since the author did not write this, thinking about ending it in 24 episodes, he has many things to show for the future, do you know that before the anime lasted much longer than just 24 episodes? It takes Dragon Ball that the first 100 chapters were just adventures, villains that were clowns like the Pilaf gang and fights with not so serious rivals, it's not until piccolo daimaoh appears to be the first really evil villain that the story takes one more serious route it would be already focusing on the fights why she became so famous, and do you know when this happens? in chapter 102 obviously Tensura is not going to need so many episodes, but it is the custom that the current animes have to have a much faster rate. |

Atavistic said: No surprise that the CGI on the sharks that Charybdis summoned was absolute garbage, but it was surprising to see just how bad the animation of Rimuru's flight was: it looked ridiculously jagged and totally unnatural, which is a big disappointment. Also, even before Milim got involved there was absolutely no sense of tension whatsoever, so this was pretty much completely redundant as usual. Also, the fact that Milim did end up one-shotting it just proves my point from last week about how shit and lazy the writing is, as it proves that her help was only refused to drag this arc out a little bit more (cos it would be even more unsubstantial than it already is if they didn't). This whole show just feels more and more aimless every week. And holy crap, reading through this thread shows that some people will not accept any criticism of this show at all, so I can't wait to get quoted eight or whatever times again to say that my opinion is shit or what have you. I can see how much you despise Tensura lol just take a close look at your choice of words ; "No Surprise" "Redundant" "As Usual" "Lazy Writing" "Aimless" Well , it's a waste of time for you then ? so why would u keep watchin tensura to begin with ? it's already predictable and obnoxious isn't it ? As for me it's a pretty simple one , if an anime fails to entertain me I won't watch it . End story . Take it or leave it . Lastly , let me tell you this... could u stop being so Grumpy about everythn😅 what you're so called "criticism" doesn't mean shit here because everythn you say is straight up Flaming . It should be noted . I ain't syin your opinion is shit , Im just perplexed of how narrow minded you are . |

PFFFF |

Briandias said: Btw just skimmed through the thread a bit and damn the "discussion" is pretty heated Especially on the topic of tension??? Well normally I don't care about this sort of technical stuff but, there seems to be a lot of consensus going on that NO TENSION = BAD WRITING ??? Thats a pretty bold statement there I must say, if you guys talking about classical writing then yeah I agree that without tension a story would be flat, but that happen because back in the day most story are hero journey a journey from 0 to hero And what we need story to move in progressive way, we need tension to build, obstacle to overcome, and drama In the end we see what the character end up, a new man the journey were amazing and our heart were filled with satisfaction so much that we want to make our kid see it. Which is why those type of writting is so popular That is why I'm actually thrilled from the fact that tensura completely rid themsellves of any tension, purposely I mean think about it they introduced millim right before some random shark came, they always finish a fight of anykind in 1 ep (wolves,ifrit,orc lord, chraybids) that proceed with aftermath It's like the author just give everyone a middle finger for thinking that tension is the number one driving force of any Writting that the world must comply themselves to the teaching of tension sensei. Whats important is that this show still managed to give a "smile" in my face every monday morning, something that dororo and tate do 180° I'm pretty sure you guys understand what I'm saying. I don't need tension at least from these show, If I want any typical hero journey clone than I could just rewatch the original starwars than watching some half assed anime with "high stakes". If this is called as "the monomyth", or the "hero's journey", is the common template of a broad category of tales that involve a hero who goes on an adventure, and in a decisive crisis wins a victory, and then comes home changed or transformed. It is a popular narrative model for the same reasons you say, however it is not the only system that exists nor is it the best, the fiction and the imagination is much wider and powerful to deliver more than the same typical story about someone facing difficulties for reach a goal and that is the proof that this story is different from all the others because it does not need tension or artificial obstacles to tell a story :D |

People give merit to a character only if it is difficult for them to achieve their goals through hard work and effort(even if these problems are forced and meaningless so that everything is unfair to him as does the hero of -bullying- shield), forgetting other equally important values, such as the decision to make decisions, and not all stories should be about the same self-improvement. |

| Ah, this anime is pure joy. I like how the bigger plot is moving bit by bit but don't dwell too much on particular arcs or fights. |

PFFFF yeah, you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. you mentioned dragon ball, so you know what an arc is. i would assume you understand how an arc is structured, but since you've utterly failed in proving you know anything thus far, let me explain it to you. arc's are structured like a normal story, with a beginning, a rising action, a climax, and a denouement. yes, they are part of a overarching narrative, but necessity dictates the arc must they have this structure lest the overarching narrative loses all semblance of structure. when an anime is adapted from another source material, the writer doing the series composition plans the show to have the same general narrative structure. this is basic logic, why would you adapt a show and not have a climax for that season? what would even be the point of watching it? if it didn't follow a structure, then it wouldn't go anywhere, and if you're claiming this show doesn't contain a climax, then you're arguing this show is objectively bad, which i'm not particularly opposed to. now that i've explained this to you, don't ever post again. any meager respect you might have managed to keep is now relinquished due to your display of sheer ignorance. an Arc is what ? Ummm , what did you just say ? Im perplexed of how Smartypants you are Yet you're completely failed to see the forest for the trees . Im wondering , Have you heard this thing called Iyashikei (癒し系) anime/manga/etc ? |
jaw201 said: More ad hominems, great. Then I will say what I said before again until you interact with my argument without insulting me or attempting to attack my character. Charybdis isn't the climax of the anime, which actually only has FOUR episodes left because the last two are side stories which aren't related to the main story. The anime season is going to end on the start of the climax. Where Rimuru gets I'm not even going to attack your character over the fact that you don't use proper grammar in your posts. learn what an ad hominem actually is before you try to use that word. an insult isn't an ad hominem. stop embarrassing yourself. a climax isn't the end of a story, it's an event necessary for the falling action to commence. if you think this season will end without a climax, then you're agreeing that this show is written terribly. stop posting, you're further discrediting yourself. take that as a suggestion, not as your woefully uninformed perception of what an "ad hominem" is. the day release a certain isekai you will see how you and many critics go mad for nothing. |

| I really like this anime but i do wish things weren't so easy for the characters... everything just seems to go a little too smoothly so there's not much conflict. The sound effects for this series are amazing, especially Milim's Drago Buster |
 |
| As much as I love action in this episode I have to say I do not like how fast it all went. Okay they have a new threat called Charybdis which supposedly as powerful as a Demon Lord. So almost everyone fought their hardest and it took almost their everything to damage it. In the end it was Milim who took it down although I think Rimuru can actually do it himself. So the new threat it's really nothing, I mean why do they even bother themselves with something that is less powerful than you..... It starting to feel like any fights or battle or whatever becomes more and more pointless. If they are already too powerful why do fight or try to make peace by befriending almost everyone This show is still pretty good but it feels like they wanna make something a joke or less serious |
| Still waiting for that gotcha moment... or when SHTF. 19 episodes later and still nothing. CGI and even the hand drawn moments of this fights was cringe. This anime is pretty bad. |
MattUzumaki said: Such a bs fight... They said that Charybdis was as strong as a Demon Lord (or at least very close to one), but he just got one shotted. Ooooookay duuude... And? Orc Lord was a newborn 'demon lord' and got beat by a slime who wasn't quite demon lord level yet. It was already clearly mentioned by millim there are weaker and stronger demon lords, with millin being one of the strongest. Being demon lord level just means you're a bit tough at the end of the day. It'll get explained later just what it means/takes to be a proper strong demon lord like millim, though not sure if the anime will reach that yet. I really hope it does. |

| Millim is best girl. She's too cute... I want her... |

| Millim is even more op than I expected... |

The sound effects for this series are amazing, especially Milim's Drago Buster Why would there be conflict if the battle and fights arent the main theme of series they have hardly solved any plot points that effect anything on a grander scale they a pretty much brushed aside the next episode back to slice of life I also keep tryin to point it out that tensura is slice of life based series , hence the main plot of tensura is arguably about how rimuru and the gang /tempest enjoying delights in life/Iyashikei . I won't say tensura is only about Iyashikei stuff but it's definitely the main theme here , that time when a slime building a nation from scratch with his friends , almost the whole story is about rimuru and the gang enjoying every little thing , interacting with the world and vice verse . ppl however , they somehow always fail to see the obvious... they tend to mistake "finding leon is the main plot of tensura in general" and I bet most ppl will say "it's episode 18 and rimuru is now(?) going after demon lord leon? why now ?" "what just happened? it's already episode 19 yet there's no sign of plot progression huh? " or smthn like that . well the answers are pretty simple actually . simply put rimuru completely forgot about shizu mumbo jumbo , he actually doesn't really care about his promises at all to begin with . rimuru is a lazy dude who's always dumping his responsibilities upon others but due to the fact shizu ghost👻 has been bugging him for weeks , he was like "argh.. ok ok whatever , Im gonna fulfill my promise then (what a pain in the ass)😪" I wonder why anime & manga chose to hide rimuru nasty personality , as result ppl felt there's smthn off in his character and tensura story/plot in general . In the light novel rimuru is in fact doesn't have goody goody nature , he always looks tender on the surface but everythn is just a facade . rimuru is the kind of person who would kill traitors without second thought , after he recruited/named monsters he said "if they betray me , Im gonna just kill every last one of em" isn't it ironic? no wonder in episode 15 iirc rimuru was like , "benimaru is such a gracious guy (for sparing the orc disaster son life) , I need to learn from him..." that being said , as the story progresses rimuru is starting to get emotionally invested on everybody around him for real . |

Like, it was set up that humans and monsters hated each other yet the humans have so willingly accepted this nation of monsters that just appeared out of nowhere and also has the power to take down a demon lord without any back up... that would not be as smooth as the show has made out. Like i don't want death and blood shed but it would be cool if there was a little more conflict |

But people kept to feel it too when they already know the characters are either op or cable so what would be the point of making tension for the viewer I don't get what you mean? |

| Seems more like One Punch Maou series the longer the story progress - but I forgive it coz Milim's cuteness is so OverLoaded |
 |
| Milim doing the puppy eyes was so cute. I really want a Milim plushy with puppy eyes now... |
