Great battle but they're all so rididculously overpowered that there is zero dramatic tension at all. Other than that, Treyni just proved that the Dryads are completely useless at their jobs.


Well they are a care taker not pest controler after all lol

To be honest though treyni taking on both laplace and gelmud was a serious risk she's taken there. Considering how dryad operate and stuff

"I left Rigurd and the others behind to protect the village. If we lose, they are to flee." Rimuru doesn't underestimate his enemies. He doesn't mention that he can win confidently.

Wait, wait, wait...If an orc eats one lizard...then it affects the entire Orc army? Nawww...It should only apply to the orcs that ate it...

Props to the animators making Gabiru vs. the Orc General a good fight. But I guess Gabiru didn't get the memo that Spears lose to Axes...

Be honest, you guys thought that the dark flame explosions were coming from Rimuru. It was just Benimaru throwing them around!

Ranga has a weather-manipulating attack? Man every character in this series is OP. And Ranga became Star Wolf...

Oh look...a castle on top of a cliff under a full moon with Dracula holding a wine glass...

We already know how strong Rimuru is, so let's see how tough of a monster the Orc Lord will be.


the dude in the castle looks so cool, he even has his own frkn moon as a decoration lol

The battle against the Orc Lord begins and Rirumu and his troops are on their way
Souei is too cool, without hesitation he admitted that he would defeat the orcs with ease.
I love Shion with every episode she appears, again she makes decisions for Rimuru, it shows she does her role as secretary of the little Slime, besides I love her new clothes, sexy secretary looks very beautiful.
The Lizardmans are overwhelmed by the power of the orcs, and begin to retreat, in addition the orcs begin to eat the corpses of the lizardman and thus obtain a new advantage in the battlefield. The appearance of the Orc General was overwhelming, the idiot of Gabiru confuses him with the Orc Lord and when he is corrected, the poor Lizardman is intimidated when he finds out the Orc Lord is much more powerful than the orc in front of him.
I loved how Trainie scares Gelmud and Laplace, it shows that the Dryads are powerful creatures and the demons do not have a chance to defeat them.
It made me laugh when Gobuta saved Gabiru, I loved the confused face of Gobuta, Ranga and the goblin riders appear to save the Lizardman, while the Kijins massacred the orc army. Benimaru and his fire powers are brutally impressive, Hakurou is still lethal with his sword and the beautiful Shion has an overwhelming force (do not mess with Shion or suffer the consequences) and Ranga is in charge of the Orc General and after defeating him, Ranga evolves in Tempest Star Wolf. Souei manages to rescue the leader of the lizardman and he demonstrates his overwhelming skill with the threads and transforms the orc into ground beef. Gelmud was horrified by the power of the Kijins and Ranga, but it seems that he fears someone else?
Who will be the man who lives in that huge castle?
And Rirumu eventually locate the Orc Lord, so the real battle will begin in the next episode.

Ughhh, that ending was blood boiling, I was waiting for so long for that, it just had to end there.
Rimuru hasn't done anything yet and the pig herds were already having great losses, his little village is really rivaling kingdom scale military forces.
The orc lord is right in front of him, I really expected a muscular semi-giant orc as their lord, somewhat disappointed with what he looks like.
The guy at the cast has shown his face, he will probably spectate the battle, so having Rimuru put on that mask was a clever move, it might also remind him of his old disciple.

200,000 Orc Heavy Infantrymen has been decimated at a moments notice lol. Gobta saving Gabiru at the last moment, the atmosphere that has a theme of war in it, it really felt like a battlefield, with action going on all around not a stagnant one, those Ogres are too OP btw. This was a really nice episode, an action packed one. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Really awesome episode!

I am impressed with Gabiru, besides being stupid as hell, he isn't a coward and faced orc general bravely!

Dryad is pawerfull as well, the demons didn't stond a chance!

Kijin group are really powerfull, their spells are so broken, they were like having fun against orcs, Ranga's Death Storm deleted completely orc general!

Lizard's reaction to Suei's strongness were priceless!

Hyped to see Rimuru vs Orc Lord, i think i could say with ease "R.I.P Orc Lord"!

Benimaru laid waste to most of the army lol and Ranga, God damn.

Souei keeps getting cooler with each passing episode.

Seems like next episode we'll be getting The orc Lord vs Rimuru

For what it's worth, Gabiru seems to be moderately strong, he's still an idiot and useless but he did hold up against the orc general somewhat.

I am a bit confused. I thought Ogres were pretty strong (stronger than Lizardmen), that's why they are so powerful after evolving. If the Orcs really ate the Ogres, then shouldn't the Orcs army have Ogre's power? It didn't seem like that's the case.

I really wonder how powerful is Rigurd now. Isn't he like 2 evolution's above Gobta? I wouldn't be surprised if even Rigurd could take on the Orc Lord.
rigurd isn't a fighter and gobta i the strongest goblin

This was such a fantastic episode! full 100% enjoyment!
the Orcs were purely overpowered and obliterated and Rimuru hasn't even done anything yet! and the Kijin's are enjoying their sweet revenge against the orcs!
Damn Ranga became a Tempest Star Wolf! such badassness!
And Benimaru, Shion, Hakurou & Souei was pure epicness!
5/5!

If Gabiru vs. the Orc General was actually much shorter in the source material, then how even will the major fights be in this series? That was sick.

Ranga's wide range attack is fucking deadly


THIS
and when he was done, that howl he let out made me shiver, that just felt downright apocalyptic

It just makes that showdown with Gabiru in ep 11 all the funnier, Gabiru pissed him off and to think that Ranga almost let loose with a death storm right then and there...

I must say that the OP levels of Rimuru's cohorts kind of took the excitement out of it for me. I mean, when everyone of his associates is so insanely powerful, the stakes suddenly feel really low, the outcome is never in doubt.
I hope the upcoming opposition is much tougher and can actually draw blood in the figurative sense of the word.

Yeah. This episode just not only permanently damaged this whole show, but retroactively made the entire arc pointless. Why did we waste SO much time with them thinking about this army like it's a problem and talking about making deals with the lizardmen when they can end this in 40 seconds? This whole arc was pointless. The villains were also shown to be weaklings, so they're no longer a threat. Why was so much time wasted trying to pretend any of this would be a problem to deal with?

I was hoping for so long that they wouldn't just do this. That they were building up to something that wasn't a pointless curbstomp. If the show won't have tension, it shouldn't waste my time by pretending that it will.

With how the show has gone so far, it has given me no reason to trust that he's stronger than Rimuru. It's a power fantasy show, and it has had 13 episodes now to make me trust it. As I see it from the expectations the show has so far given me, which is all I have to work on, this is just building up more tension to an anticlimactic battle. I have no trust whatsoever in the writers at this point, they've lost it.

Now if he IS stronger, we should be seeing him doing something by now. We don't need ANOTHER pointless curbstomp here, it's absolutely wasting time.

What are you talking about are we watching the same show ???
Rimuru is weak like hell, just because he can kill some buffed pig does that mean he is op??? Where does that logic come from.

Have you played dark souls??? Do you feel that you are op after killing some random mob and asylum demon??? If so than good job you support your own logic than.

If he is strong he will do something ??? Why de fuck he will care that some random fish suddenly come whrencing one of his minion plan,

this is why jeez

>It's time for the orc Lord to take action
What do you think he was doing right before Rimuru says that he is going to engage him?
And two, this first cour storyline will either finish next episode or in the 15th episode, and by that time we will be introduced to a character much stronger than anyone Rimuru has faced before, including the orc Lord.
Also, if you are looking for a generic power fantasy rpg, this isn't it. TenSura is much more like Rimuru playing a 4x game in the fantasy world he is in, where the focus is on village/town building and politics. The fighting and action is secondary to the main story of the series as a whole. But yes the Orc Lord is enough of a threat to be a problem for Rimuru.

ARE we watching the same show? That you say he's 'weak' makes me think not, he's stupidly overpowered. Yes, I think I feel OP on New Game+ walking in and killing the Asylum Demon in three hits after toying with him for five minutes for giggles while taking no damage, that's a much more applicable comparison.

Compare him to literally everything we've seen in the show so far. He is so much stronger. There has been nothing done to show that anything existing is stronger than him, therefore I see no reason to think anything is. I can only assume based on what I've seen, and I've seen his weaker subordinates basically bombing a battlefield and killing hundreds of enemies with every attack. How is that weak? Could a regular human in this world do that without batting an eyelash? Could a regular human give fifty names as easily as he could?

And he'd do something because it's boring as heck watching 13 episodes of nothings getting owned effortlessly. I want an actual threat, a real conflict that isn't revealed to not actually be anything major. It would be like if the first Lord of the Rings was just three hours of the Hobbits easily escaping the Nazgul over and over again.

the Heck are you tlkn about brat?
Did u even watch the anime?

Go watch episode 1 - 2, it's shown n Established that Rimuru couldn't do a thing to Hero's [Unlimited Imprisonment] that sealed Veldora .
If the Anime chose not to skip, it was said in the Light Novel, According to <Great Sage> the Possibility of Freeing Veldora from the Seal is at best 3 % .

it's Confirmed n so Clear as Day, Rimuru is basically a Fodder in comparison to a Fraction of Hero's OP-ness.
n Rimuru is presumably a Fodder compared to Veldora (one of 4 True Dragons) as well .

thus, How could u say smthn like, no one can touch Rimuru, he's too OP blah blah bla to a series that's straight up Established Rimuru as a Fodder from the beginning of the story?
Not to mention, this series has only been around for 13 episodes iirc .

you're just being too nitpicky FOR NO LEGIT REASON there .
At least do some research first, or watch the frkn series properly for god sake lolllollol

I'm actually watching the early episodes right now with someone who's curious, just finished 5. He's constantly aghast that the new powers he's discovering are TOO powerful. Everyone is in awe of his power and ability to solve every issue they have in five minutes. So because he couldn't defeat the seal holding back the most unkillable thing on the planet, he's weak as a rock? Wait, the dragon couldn't break the seal either! It had a zero percent chance! I guess that means the calamity inducing dragon is weaker than Rimuru and is fodder too, huh? I'm glad I understand the power scaling of this series now.

Also, 13 episodes is the entire runtime of other shows. Yes, I expect things to get done.

the Heck are you tlkn about brat?
Did u even watch the anime?

Go watch episode 1 - 2, it's shown n established that Rimuru couldn't do a thing to Hero's [Unlimited Imprisonment] that sealed Veldora .
If the Anime chose not to skip, it was said in the Light Novel, According to <Great Sage> the Possibility of Freeing Veldora from the Seal is at best 3 % .

it's Confirmed n so Clear as Day, Rimuru is basically a Fodder in comparison to a Fraction of Hero's OP-ness.
n Rimuru is presumably a Fodder compared to Veldora (one of 4 True Dragons) as well .

thus, How could u say smthn like, no one can touch Rimuru, he's too OP blah blah bla to a series that's straight up Established Rimuru as a Fodder from the beginning of the story?
Not to mention, this series has only been around for 13 episodes iirc .

you're just being too nitpicky FOR NO LEGIT REASON there .
you embarrassed urself

I'm actually watching the early episodes right now with someone who's curious, just finished 5. He's constantly aghast that the new powers he's discovering are TOO powerful. Everyone is in awe of his power and ability to solve every issue they have in five minutes. So because he couldn't defeat the seal holding back the most unkillable thing on the planet, he's weak as a rock? Wait, the dragon couldn't break the seal either! It had a zero percent chance!

Let me put this way ok.
as a Human, would u consider yourself OP , no one can touch u in the world , just because u can Easily crush nameless Ants on the floor?
nope, no .
that's not Apples to Apples , as a Human u don't scale to nameless Ants whatsoever , you're on a whole different league , I mean humans are on top of food chains after all

it's similar to Rimuru's situation , he's a named monster, n it's Established that named monsters are really Powerful .
Especially when the one who named u was Veldora - Dragon God.
so, it makes perfect sense if Rimuru n All his named monsters don't scale to these 200k nameless orcs whatsoever .

Rimuru is not very strong, he very specifically said that the dwarf king could kill him, and that was the main reason for not trying to just get out forcefully.
If you don't think there are beings more powerful than Rimuru and you have gone through the first 13 episodes, then you have been SPEEDWATCHING. The demon lords are much MUCH stronger than Rimuru. If you are complaining about pace, and why no big bad has shown up, its because they are properly introducing and pacing the show instead of rushing everything and sticking an entire LN into 4 episodes like Overlord.

Do you want to know why they are in awe of Rimuru's power? Its because he literally is a hyper powerful slime, which are supposed to be super weak. And trust me, the only reason why Rimuru hasn't encountered any stronger enemies is because he hasn't been noticed yet. This is a living world, where your actions have repercussions, Rimuru just hasn't drawn the ire of anyone truly powerful.

Instead of complaining about nothing happening for 13 episodes why don't you keep watching, since as someone who has read the source material past where we are in the anime, most of your complaints are unfounded, if not downright stupid.

Also you seem to be under the impression that this is some sort of battle Shounen series, let me clear that right up. Tensei Slime is not a battle Shounen. It is more like Log Horizon where the fights are secondary to the overall story.

Okay, let's say that the strongest dwarf alive is stronger than him. This doesn't say he's 'weak' by any means whatsoever. Not to mention he easily defeated Ifrit, a being so powerful that it could melt rock into lava just by proximity, he effortlessly incinerated a giant ant that was causing multiple quite experienced human adventurers trouble, his underlings, weaker than him, bombed battlefields killing hundreds of enemies at a time, unless a regular human could also do all of that. He's strong as hell and I cannot believe that this is being argued against.

And yes, it's only been 13 episodes. The entire runtime of many other shows, I've expected more of my time to not be wasted so far with a plodding, generic plot that other shows have handled far, far better. This show is dreadfully paced. You can pace things out and not drag on. This is a critique accepted even by many who love this show, you can acknowledge that your favourite show has some flaws without going to defensive name calling.

Okay, the fights are secondary (but still far too long for what they are). It doesn't change the fact that he is overpowered and has solved every non-combat issue he has encountered within minutes, meaning even the out of combat moments have zero tension. I remember when he went to the dwarven city and resolved everything he encountered one after the other.

-it's not that it's weak, but there are characters
and rivals stronger than Rimuru.

-The fight with ifrit was lucky because only it was a spirit with fire power, and as a rimuru it is immune to heat this had no way to damage it since his abilities are only fire. (Forget those creatures that invoked that's an invention of the anime), anyway it was like a defeat because he could not save Shizu.

-This first part of the story is only to lay the foundations of the city and the rules of this world, it is a bit long, but it is retroactive information it will not be necessary to explain them later.

-On this: "he solve each problem easily"
Well, if it is true, however this harms the plot?
At no time was it presented to us as a story of personal self-improvement, they gave him a gift, but nobody told him he had to do with this, the problems of the monsters was not his just wanted to give a hand because he thinks it's right.
if this were a shonen like in naruto or my hero academy then it would be a mistake since these stories pose the idea of showing how a loser without talent demonstrates its value with effort and determination (However in the end they end up giving overpower skills to their protagonists, deku at the beginning they give him the quirk of All might the strongest hero of all, naruto and Rikudou mode with powers of jesus christ invented)

I would like to address your point of me resorting to defensive name calling. If you look back in the thread, I had previously responded to you without any name calling. When I saw that you responded to someone who was insulting you, I thought that was the only way to start a dialogue with you. So I just wanted to clear up why I was name calling in the first place.

Now to address your points in order.

First regarding Ifrit:
Just because he seemed to be able to melt earth into lava is not a measurement of his own power, as it stands Ifrit is weak enough that a subjugation team of four humans could eliminate him. Now these adventures would be slightly stronger than the ones supporting Rimuru, or they could send a single high rank adventurer/knight who could take out Ifrit alone. The ogres as they were before Rimuru named them could have beaten Ifrit. Ifrit is really all bark with no bite in the end.

What you mentioned about Rimuru, his own power.
ChyllyWylly said:
He(Rimuru) effortlessly incinerated a giant ant that was causing multiple quite experienced human adventurers trouble, his underlings, weaker than him, bombed battlefields killing hundreds of enemies at a time, unless a regular human could also do all of that. He's strong as hell and I cannot believe that this is being argued against.

The answer to this is yes, there are individual humans that can easily do what Rimuru did, although naming any of these humans is a spoiler, we have heard one of these humans name already. There are humans who can kill Rimuru right now if they knew of Rimuru's existence and what he can do.

Now regarding pacing:

I have to disagree with you here. I believe the pacing here is justified in order to expand the world and introduce characters. This is the same pacing used in the light novel and the manga. The pacing here is slower than say overlord, whose rushed pacing lead to the dumpster fire which was overlord season 3. Additionally, if you haven't realized this, we are in the development stage of the plot, essentially a prolgue. The reason why it is taking so long is because Rimuru is currently bulding his town / nation. This is the plot and the pace is already accelerating. I enjoy the pace as well because it feels like the episodes are always half the length than they actually are, which is a very good thing.

Now regarding Rimuru solving conflicts in the city and with the monsters:

Rimuru only solved two conflicts in the dwarven city, everything else that happened was a consequence of Rimuru meddling. Additionally, Rimuru can't make perfect replicas. Rimuru has only solved things because he isn't an idiot who punches first and asks question later, he is a diplomat first, and monsters in this world will follow the strongest, because humans will try to kill them if they did not do this. They need to stick together in order to survive, so it isn't Rimuru convincing them to join him, it them making the decision to join up with the strongest being so that they don't get killed by humans. Plus the fact that giving them names make them even more powerful, it makes Rimuru look like a benevolent king in their eyes, such that they WANT to follow him. He is also only able to conquer his problems without problems because no one knows that he exists to try and get in his way.

This series is so fun! The way Rimuru's 'party' keeps getting stronger by new additions and evolutions is very satisfying to watch without being cheesy (for me at least). Seeing how strong the Kijin were in this episode was especially great to see. Very binge-watchable. I'm kind of obsessed now, so I guess I'll look into the manga.

I am a bit confused. I thought Ogres were pretty strong (stronger than Lizardmen), that's why they are so powerful after evolving. If the Orcs really ate the Ogres, then shouldn't the Orcs army have Ogre's power? It didn't seem like that's the case.

I really wonder how powerful is Rigurd now. Isn't he like 2 evolution's above Gobta? I wouldn't be surprised if even Rigurd could take on the Orc Lord.
I have a theory. The skill so called "starving" have an ability to absorb power and skill from another Monsters by eating them, that the fact. But, there is no guarantee of success in single attempt like rimuru skill "predator", and maybe they can't share it to another. So, if there is 100 orc who's ate the ogres corpsed and imagine only 20 of them who's succeed absorb the ogres power, then they gonna keep it for themselves and evolved to some creatures we know as "orc general".

For rigurd, I admit it his strong but not enough to take the orc lord by himself. I believe the orc lord it's match for ogre or maybe kijin.

P.S. It's just a conclusion from what I saw in the manga and anime, so if something uncorrect let me know, please.

I must say that the OP levels of Rimuru's cohorts kind of took the excitement out of it for me. I mean, when everyone of his associates is so insanely powerful, the stakes suddenly feel really low, the outcome is never in doubt.
I hope the upcoming opposition is much tougher and can actually draw blood in the figurative sense of the word.

Yeah. This episode just not only permanently damaged this whole show, but retroactively made the entire arc pointless. Why did we waste SO much time with them thinking about this army like it's a problem and talking about making deals with the lizardmen when they can end this in 40 seconds? This whole arc was pointless. The villains were also shown to be weaklings, so they're no longer a threat. Why was so much time wasted trying to pretend any of this would be a problem to deal with?

I was hoping for so long that they wouldn't just do this. That they were building up to something that wasn't a pointless curbstomp. If the show won't have tension, it shouldn't waste my time by pretending that it will.

Calm down guys, rimuru is not OP. Just wait for our best girl milim to show up and rekt all kijin, then you guys will realize how weak rimuru is.

Rigurd is in fact not that strong , n he ain't much of a fighter either .
