Ah yes, Rimuru wants to unite people and factions together. A festival sounds like a neat idea after all.

This episode was okay, felt like a slower one but we still get the wise Rimuru doing his work. Shion and Milim's rivalry also seems to have cooled down while Rimuru is tries to maintain peace and balance in his role.

It's festival time in the Jura Forest!

After the conclusion of the Walpurgis Council, Rimuru's domain now encompasses the entirety of the Jura Forest. As a result, a surge of visitors from previously unencountered races is anticipated to arrive in town to greet Rimuru.

Furthermore, during their investigation of the highway construction, they discover that the projected route passes through a mountain inhabited by the Tengu race. Rimuru appoints Benimaru as an envoy to handle the situation. Given the multitude of diplomatic issues at hand, Rimuru proposes the idea of organizing a nation-opening festival to address foreign affairs and entice new residents simultaneously.

Alright, I can't deny it, even for Tensura, these setup episodes are becoming a tad dull.

While I can admire the efforts put into the world building at the Great Jura Forest that Rimuru and company work on with each episode, there are plenty of exposition-heavy, meeting-driven episodes that are dull and and boring to me in this series (especially in season 2) and that feeling returned here in this episode. Would be nice seeing new faces and races soon and the festival seems like a fine idea, but in a series that feels like it features festivals and celebratory events a lot in general whether in the original series or in Slime Diaries, can't say it's something I'm excited about. Benimaru and Aldis seems to be a bit of a thing developing with him getting teased by Shuna and the others for that developing underneath all the work.

3:12 威圧 (iatsu lit. intimidate pressure) is more like "coercion".

I still feel bad for Eurazania, they really just got a whole city blown up because of Milim pretending to be under Clayman's control (tho in the end this is a good things I guess. Or am not understanding this correctly? Please clarify if so.).
This episode was super interesting. I'm really loving all this post-war stuff.

More like Benimaru passed all the troublesome work to someone else lol. Having reliable subordinates is always a must for any ruler. Expanding knowlege by having the prisoners learn from them was a nice move on Rimuru's part. Language barrier's though are gonna be an issue no matter who manages the prisoners. Poor Geld though. On the diplomatic front things are also gonna be interesting as well. And it looks like Rimuru's gonna be even busier than ever thanks to his new role.

Well more of the Walpurgis aftermath, Tempest time at this moment.

Looks like all of them are so busy with their higher role after the war. Meanwhile, Diablo is so eager to take an action more wildly regarding Falmuth situation, but as always, calm yo d down Diablo, its not time yet.

Milim will coming, always lookin for more arousal, she's gonna enjoy the big open house for the next.

More people comin anyway, so needs to unlock more expansion slots for the better Tempest. That's it the other side of the river gonna be the next target, along with the highway route that needs to be taken care off later. Also Clayman land dungeon, huh? Interesting to know more about that.

Tho fret no. Festival first, worry later. Let's go....

I don't mind these type of episodes every now and then. I like the action as much as the next user here, but slower episodes like these are needed to keep the balance correctly. Besides, they have their own charm which I do enjoy. =)

It was interesting to know about how Rimuru's Tempest would handle the aftermath of Walpurgis, which looks to be successful. I do have sympathy for Geld, as he was having a tough time with his role.

With things progressing as they are, Tempest now covers the entirety of the forest or Jura, which will come with its own sets of challenges to overcome. I do like the idea that Rimuru had of having one big announcement rather than having multiple small meeting in quick succession. I do look forward to seeing how this will go next time.

Hataraku Saibou cameo at 19:12.

Peaceful days indeed, yet with many matters requiring attention to keep it that way there's not much time to slack off. Festival preparations means more workload and the prospect of more fun in upcoming episodes.

Since season 2 too many talking slow pace, still image like power point slideshow. Also Talk so slow like people wait this guy to finish talk then give reaction, I have to make it speed 1.4x so atleast I dont have wait so long for this stupid character finish their line (which not important either, they intent to make a joke too but make it so fucking stupid boring, like reference that they copy rimuru action or flashback when he in real world which they intent to make as a joke?)

Cracking Falmuth is still an ongoing, political process.

Aww, I wanted to meet the Tengu but now it's been delegated to Benimaru.

Episodes like the one we got this week are some of my favorites. Get to see basically the entire cast and everyone has something going on that we get to know about. Slime does best when it comes to wide a cast so I was very pleased.

Still not really sold on the OP for this season, I said this last week too but something about it isn't to my liking. I actually skipped it half way through this week, not something I normally do with a weekly. The ED on the other hand is quite good, I like it a lot.

I actually do like episodes of this kind more when it comes to this series, as when it is about action, it always and always ends up being a one-sided affair, which isnt something fun to see after once or twice.

By the way, the amount of confusion and fear of losing we see on Shion's face whenever Diablo briefs anything to Rimuru is hilarious.

Huh, nice one:

I just love how peaceful the Evil Storm Dragon is + Hataraku Saibou.

Shuna was cute here too and the rare shots of old Rimuru as salaryman.

Don't remember anything about the elves Hakurou was speaking of... is this some new content (not from manga) or I just forgot?

Anyway, it's all enjoyable so far, I like the slower pace and now excited about the party!

Rimuru will hold a grand party, A festival of sorts, for all the visitors coming to his city. Since declaring himself a demon lord things have not slowed down at all. Rimuru said it that war is hard work even if you win, organizing the cleanup, holding prisoners, finding a place for all the refugees, its nonstop work for all those involved. Rimuru does now have a lot of capable subordinates, his followers are becoming more adept at knowing what Rimuru would want done and carrying that out instead of asking him about every little thing. Rimuru coming up with that great idea of holding a party to show off their city, his new demon lord status warrants visitation from all those under his new domain. So having them come together will be much easier on everyone.

Didn’t think we’d spend this long on just the aftermath of the events of Season 2, but it does make sense as a lot happened, this time it was focused on refugees and a bit more on Falmuth. The best bit tho was probably Geld and Rimuru drinking their troubles away lol, takes me back to slime diaries, that’s what we need another season of tbh. I also just liked seeing more of Rimuru’s previous life as we barely got any when the series started.

It was also nice seeing Albis and Suphia again, they’re two of the best waifu designs in the show imo, it was also funny that the idea of Benimaru leaving for Albis was brought up but of course none of Rimuru’s subordinates would dare leave their positions. And at the end the problem of announcing that the entirety of the Forest of Jura being under Rimuru was brought up, yeah that would definitely cause some problems but I’m looking forward to seeing the influx of people coming to see Rimuru all at once lol.

Very important build up episode for future content!
The group photo had Flamaire's dad on it. I hope she gets animated in the founding festival, that would be so cool.
The underground ruins mentioned in the episode can be seen in Clayman's spin-off, for those interested.

@rijallconnie bro doesn't know about world building and story building. with you saying they're talking about unimportant things, it's already a hint that you're just here for the action which is not this series is all about

I don't mind if they talking about strategy or post event or kind of some shit or politics. The problem is the way they delivered it is bad and boring, it's like they just showing manga panel with voice which is different medium.

It's better to read the manga rather than watching slideshow with a voice.

Rimuru “that’s more than I expected” if only he knew Diabolo forced them at gunpoint to pay up those stellar gold coins lmao

As usual a ton of worldbuilding in this episode, continuing to tie up everything from the end of the last season and laying the groundwork for Tempest, and newly minted Demon Lord Rimuru, to introduce themselves on the world stage. If countries’ leaders meet each other in person and realise all the similarities they and their countries have, they’re less likely to start conflict. Rimuru again with the big brained moves.

The festival arc is finally about to start! Can’t wait to see this animated.

Ah yes, a lot happened in the last season, and with Rimuru entering a paradigm shift in his existence, I expected this season to be another settling phase of him becoming a demon lord/maou. I guess the episodes will almost be involved with SoL with a bit of action this season.

Not pleased at all with the lazy animation. Reusing frames over and over and over, still frames with no motion during dialogue. The art direction overall is still great, hope to see the Colosseum get added to the city landscape and maybe a new OP or EP where we can see the newly growing city. I knew this chapter would be dialogue heavy, which the show always was, but season 1 and season 3 don't even compare.
