| The show panning to Rimuru's admirers including Diablo fucking killed me lmao, Diablo is best girl. Damn, Hakuro got a whole family we did not know about at all, even he, did not know about it lmao. Benimaru the rizzler. The boys really had a discussion about harems, you'll get yours too someday Gabiru and Geld, we don't need to talk about Souei. You'd think Kaede is still healthy the way she looking fine, damn it Rimuru, give her some magicules. |
 |
| Benimaru my man finally leveled up. Two women fighting over him + many more intrested. Harem so big even made Rimuru jealous. Poor Gabiriu feel bad for him. Hakuro what a Chad though. Momoji is cute too. Benimaru looks like pull a Rudeus and double wield fox-loli & snake-onesan. |
| At least it's not a meeting episode. I mean it's mostly not a meeting episode |
 |
| The arrival of the Tengu's daughter Momiji to Tempest, with a backstory from Benimaru and his group's meeting to expand Tempest of the request to meet the Tengu and cut through a hole of the sacred Tengu mountains, things weren't as good for first impressions through negotiation as envoys passing through sacred land, with Albis almost being killed. But for Momiji's mother of Elder Kaede to reveal how she met the Sword Savant of Byakura Araki a.k.a Hakuro, Benimaru is faced with something unexpected: a marriage proposal to Momiji. And that brings the situation to now where Momiji faces Rimuru, though when it comes to the former Demon Lord Frey wanting to invade their space, it's indeed a deadlock, but it's thankfully a misunderstanding where the loss of Clayman exposes competition for the neighbouring competing lands. Of course, the legend husband comes back from Falmuth finally seeing his daughter in the flesh and the wife's request to train the daughter, Albis is the unexpected addition to Benimaru's harem of suitors...if only Rimuru didn't dig his grave with Shion, Shuna and Diablo. The harem talk is just too hilarious, especially on Gabiru's side of admirers being just men. But back to serious business, Benimaru only needs one spouse...and Rimuru's fight from Shion and Shuna...the Love and Battle harem is an interesting angle to add to Tempest. Diplomacy aside, it's fun showing a side of Tempest not expected. |

| From Hakuro had a daugther into Benimaru Harem LMAO |
 |
| This episode is so fun. Revelation about Moniji being Hakuro's daughter and Benimaru actually have harem around him all this time is so interesting  |

@Scootboi god forbid an isekai anime can't expand on it's harem/romance elements. also ecchi? this bozo is watching the anime while his eyes are closed lmao
| @arvin_1219 blud this anime has turned into an absolute carcass of what it was. awesome fights, character development, and good moments. now it's just a bunch of people sitting at a table for 9 episodes, one fight, and back to the table I'm not "watching it with my eyes closed" you invalid, i'm critiquing it for being dog shit compared to what it was. |
  |
| That was a fun episode. The Tengu are by far the most interesting of the new races we've met in the last couple episodes. Momiji's an entertaining mix of strength, regal, and youthful inexperience so she'll make a solid addition to the group. Hakuro instantly stepping into the role of concerned father and leaning on Benimaru was hilarious. I hope he goes and sees Kaede at some point though. I loved the bro chat about women and harems that broke out in the middle of the formal audience. The ogre chicks have been competing over Rimiru forever, so people complaining about "what does this show want to be?" like it's new haven't been paying attention. The only bad thing when it goes nowhere forever and the dude's just flustered, so if we're doing that twice as much with Benimaru in the mix that'll get old quick. I loved the tonal shifts. We went from diplomacy to a brief fight to Kaede spilling her guts about her life and daughter to playing things for a bunch of laughs. I'm cool with that, keeps things interesting. What's the show about? What does it want to be? All of it and everything, hopefully. |

I have been following this show since it first aired in 2018. I loved the premise and the general vibe of that first season. It became a bit much in season two when the story felt very stretched thin and over the top. Especially with conversations going nowhere and ridiculous plot points that had little to no bearing on the story - or just that they were poorly written.
Still I overlooked all of that because it was entertaining. I got through all of season two and enjoyed myself. Which is the most important thing.
Now onto season three, sixteen episodes in, I can honestly say I am done with the show. The meetings, conversations, and constant exposition that is happening right now could have been cut in half and you would not have lost the essence of whatever is supposed to be going on. This is just the show runners trying to fill up the episode runtime with vacuous nonsense. Frustratingly. they have great story material right in front of them that they could be taking advantage of but are not. Even if the people who have read ahead were to tell me it was all going somewhere and the show was about to drastically pick up I am not sure I would continue on.
Another glaring issue is the whole series now has an identity crisis and cannot figure out what genre it is in - because of that its writing really suffers. Speaking of writing. In a show as dialogue heavy as this you really have to know how to write dialogue that keeps people engaged. This is not happening. Some of the most ridiculous comments defending this writing that I have seen from people are those who say "wait until it has all aired and then binge watch it". Why would you binge watch a season, twenty four episodes long, to ignore half of it. That is not the definition of a binge worthy show.
Agree or not, I am glad there are people who are enjoying the show but this clearly is not for me anymore.

Thanks for explaining your decision that maturely.
ngl the toxic comments I read about this seasons quality (from both sides btw) drive me crazy, so this is quite refreshing!
I hope you'll have fun with other great anime this season!
| @Braincoke No worries. I have always enjoyed the world building elements of the show and the simplistic way it was handled therein. The series was a great bit of escapism for me when I was younger and especially through the pandemic years with season 2. But now there are plenty of things I do not enjoy like this developing harem subplot and the endless filler dialogue that is used to fill up runtime. It isn't the first show to go off the rails like this and it certainly will not be the last. I may yet finish the season once it has all aired, just out of morbid curiosity, but my time with Slime Isekai is over. |

| Who would have thought Benimaru would have a harem?! Whoa, it turns out Benimaru is a popular guy~ but he only wants to have one :3 what a nice guy. Souei is the one who looks quiet but is the expert~ hahaha. The conversation was really funny. Rimuru is also popular~ ♡ There seems to be a new character coming in the next episode! Is he the one in the OP? If so, it means that this kind of fun and relaxing episode is coming to an end... and the fights will start!! Looking forward to it! |
 |
| It was high time they started addressing the many romantic relationships going on in this show (and also Diablo I guess). With Hakuro in the middle of the relationship between the ogres and the tengu, it seems like there's a harem going on aroung Benimaru, one without any knowledge on how to handle it. Shion and Shura will be sure to dispute their place for Rimuru and Soei has his own all figured out. Poor Gabiru and Geld not getting any luck, I'm in the same boat over here. |

| This was different... and I loved it. |
| An episode where the main focus is on Benimaru. That's nice. Damn. The Karasu Tengu's home looks so beautiful. But I suppose they're just Tengu here? Probably have no relation to crows. Wow. Hakuro actually has a daughter. That came outta nowhere. And it seems like Momiji's mother was pregnant with her for a very long time. Probably almost 300 years. That's crazy. And of course, Benimaru is lucky enough to snag all these cuties. He's making a harem! I guess the moral is be such an amazing man that ladies will literally fight over you or something... But he prefers a single spouse. That's respectable I think. It's his choice. Lmao. Rimuru's harem includes Shuna, Shion, and Diablo. That scene made me laugh. Come to think of it, I guess Shuna and Shion actually want Rimuru. But Rimuru doesn't seem too bothered about that. It was pretty much always treated as a joke so I wonder if Rimuru would ever have a real love interest. This was a good episode. The good kind of yapping that's actually entertaining to watch. |
| I'm not surprised Benimaru is a hit with the ladies, I still ship him with Albis though. Lots of relationship talk this episode, but it was not boring. |
| benimaru you must choose must choose: fertile big boobie snake woman or child |
| Byakuya was an otherworlder? If he was, and Hakuro is his grandson, it means he fucked a pre-evolution ogre? Daaamn. Also, how is Momiji Hakurou's daughter? That makes no fkng sense because she is only fifteen, I'm confused af because her mother hasn't seen Hakurou in over 300 years, or so she says, unless they meet 15 years ago just to marry and have a quick fuck, which is so fkng bizarre considering how damn old they both are 🤔 Also, Hakurou got married to the leader of the Tengu and impregnated her, and then he just left, no questions ask? Ok. Anyway, Momiji has the coolest dad ever lol Other thing I don't like is how we have 0 exposition on Benimaru's relationship with Albis, of course I know they had something, that is really fkng obvious only a blind person wouldn't notice, but it never ever was shown in any way they DO love each other, yet now out of nowhere we just have to accept it. Like I said it's was obvious from the start but still that kinda sucks because we can't really feel bad about her, I mean, Momiji just got introduced and in just a couple of minutes she already has a more stablished love relationship with him lmao. I know he gets both of them in the end but I just can't give a fuck about Albis anymore, wich is sad because I did like her. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| The Tengus looks like really nice persons |
| Loved how Diablo was with Shuna and Shion when they suggested people who have feelings for Rimuru xD |
 |
| Hmm... Bird People... lol She seem pretty interesting, And her mom during her younger age is pretty... feels like Momiji is going to grow up pretty as well. But the old ogre dude? hmm... how long ago did this happened? So I take it the monster races all have different "aging timeline" (similar to Humans and other animal species in our RL world, IE: Dogs and Cats age a lot faster than Humans, IE: Dogs ages like 5 years to 1 year of Human, etc etc) (so it's possibly the Tengus age slower, like how some big RL Birds can live to 100+ years old if they're kept well maintained) And now Beni's harem is growing, LOL (tho.. Beni's kinda being forced into having the Harem, RIP, he's dead inside already, LOL) And Beni wants just 1 partner, so he's going to have to pick. Meanwhile... Rimuru wants to know how to "get woman" too... except he seems to not realize he already sorta have a harem... in multiple races and genders, LOL . Also... apparently the humans are going out (date) with the Dwarves... (who are physically lolis, lol) |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
I love sakura trees. I really liked this episode, I honestly didn't expect to meet Hakurou's wife and daughter!! I really liked their story |
| The old swordman has a secret girl!!!! kekeke |
| Lots of love-talk and gossip this episode lol. I wonder if Benimaru will have that harem in the end xD |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| Am I right, they literally built Benimaru's harem in just one episode? Wow, this is some level of visual novel protagonist. And at the same time they gave Hakuro a daughter out of nowhere? Well, at least they're actually advancing the story and not just discussing politics for the sake of discussing politics in a conference room. |
 |
| Hey! Albis slander won't be tolerated on my watch. I like Benimaru but he better picks the big tiddy serpent onee-san over the bratty tengu loli or else I will lose all the respect I have for him. Also that sudden Hakurou lore drop was just crazy. Tensura turning into a romance soap opera outta nowhere xD Man, what a fun episode this one was. Absolutely loved how we went from having a formal audience to a high-school male gossip session because of Benimaru's immaculate rizz with women. And by the way, the inclusion of Diablo when they started talking about Rimuru's love candidates was pure gold xD |
| Angels incarnated into wolves??? I didn't know Tengu were so cool. Benimaru's lady troubles deserves a 12 episode spin off stat! |
 |
| Such a peak episode. We got so many love interests revealed in this episode. Hakuro's wife is beautiful as well. And, his daughter will have to go against Albis for Benimaru and probably many other girls as well as Benimaru is HIM after all. It was a really cool episode. Loved it. |
