I feel Rimuru has now something over Ainz(Overlord). Rimuru came through on what he really is (a former human and everything) to his servants/comrades and as result, they became even closer.

I doubt Ainz will ever come clean or break his Overlord persona considering the risks it could put between him and his servants and his overall position as their master (which I think is sad)...

Yes,it dragged on a little bit,but I think the build up is worth it,I mean,come on,he's about to evolve into a demon lord fgs,if they just spent 10 mins on him annihilating the enemy,and then evolving,you'd be complaining that it was too quick.
oh well,the next week is going to be a painful wait,but I think it will be well worth it.
bring on the bloodshed and deaths of thousands of humans(not to mention those scummy otherworlders ;)

Actually I think its more "through violence I'll get to evolve into a demon lord,bring my friends back,show the human scum I am not to be messed with,and as a side bonus,I get to eat LOTS of scrummy human souls as well"

And as for the war crimes bit,I think the human side and the otherworlders uses of scummy tactics qualifies more as war crimes.They attacked first,without warning,using subterfuge as an excuse.Rimuru and the others are just showing them the errors in using those tactics against a superior force and intellect.

I didn't really enjoy this episode, Half the episode was basically just the last episode and then a little speech/montage. felt boarderline filler-ish hopefully next episode he can make it 200ft out of the sky to the enemies below him, but who knows.

Man, those isekai'd teenagers are gonna get their asses kicked in such a manner now that there is no handicap for Hakurou and co. Looking forward to it.

The reunion with everyone accepting Rimuru's origin and being willing to follow him even if he becomes a Demon Lord was also rather sweet. The entire sequence was really nice, actually.

Overall, mainly a build-up episode to set things for the upcoming beatdown Rimuru's forces will exert on Falmuth army. Next week couldn't come sooner!

Yep. Rimuru-sama confessed all of it, the previous lifes of the slime, to all of the underlings, i mean the families and friends. Before entering the intense battle everyone needed to prepare themself out. Even so with Rimuru-sama, planning such an outcome for the slime action in the near future, and making Youm, once again in the frontlines to made the plan succeeded. They just 100% percent serious and its such an obviousness the result shall be interesting. The former of the human, for the sake of saving the family members by slaughtering their own races. Its naturally happened as the same as that folkstale got before. The same as it happens a lot in life at this world of deception, if you know what i refer. So, yeah, from my deepest heart, you have my acceptance, my one and only slime god.

Anyway, as everyone ready to be prepared and finally launched their separate action toward the different divisions of the human forces. Interesting to see the sides of the monsters when they simply seek of a revenge. A cliffhanger? Nah, more like a break before reaching a good part right at the next episode. I hope.

the difference is anybody can proclaim themselves as a demon lord if
A) your recognized by the demon lord counsel
B) strong enough to back up your claim

a true demon lord is a person who has gone through the harvest festival and is recognized by the voice of the world

Bloodglas said:
there's people that are really strong that can claim to be demon lords, and can be recognized as one by the other demon lords, but a "true" (real) demon lord is actually something you evolve into. similar to when Rimuru names monsters. this isn't common knowledge in the world of the story though, else there'd probably be a lot more people trying to become true demon lords.

Could it consider as spoiler if you tell me who are true demon lords and who aren't? (Excluding Rimuru)

I see a lot of people complaining about "recap", "filler" and "build up".
But in truth, it's an important moment were a mentality change and a decision of importance are made, and it's pretty well done in this way.
You can't go kill someone, and particularly not an army, if you don't make up your mind to.
Well, the next episode should be pretty good action wise so those who are ranting will be happy next week.

I knew the episode would end when they're about to start seeing as they're dragging the raison d'etre, the casus belli, the preparation, etc... damn it, but I was still disappionted when we didn't see the start of the operation this episode as I'm eagerly awaiting to see the faces of those three Otherworlders again when Hakouru shows up fully powered up now. *sigh* Fine next week it is then.

Good thing Rimuru's already exploring the intentions, possibilities and consequences of why and how they ended up to here and now, does Clayman really want the 10k human souls for his ambition? I guess Rimuru's gonna have to drop by and ask it of Clayman personally! LOL

Best episode of Tensura 2nd season so far for me, it kept the momentum we're getting from the last couple of episodes really well. And I'm sensing that the time has come FOR RIMURU TO KICK SOME SORRY ASSES!!!

We start off reminiscing Rimuru's journey while they're discussing how to repel the enemy forces. One side of me just finds it awesome how far our Slime has come from the cave that he came from, while another side tells me that "this is the 4th fucking time you're giving us a recap of Rimuru in this anime, please stop". But the plan is set, our Tempest forces are in place, and Rimuru is now set to make himself as a Demon Lord. I am finally HYPED for this season as a whole, they're picking up the intensity, and I'm just happily cheering for our characters now to win this war.

IT IS ON!

This was probably the worst episode of this season. Trying to build up hype is good. But stretching it so thin till the entire hype dies is worse. The pacing of S1 second cour was better than these 3-4 previous episodes...

This is so slow ... like this whole season was so damn SLOW!!! I can't belive they spread it into 2 seasons, when like the first 9 episodes are just build up for what happens from episode 10 onwards when the story really starts... Also, how can they go and cut important elements of the story (like humans being present in Tempest, then offering help and being evacuated, which gave the whole situation more weight and depth) to then go and add up unnecessary crap just to drag on the story more... like this whole episode could have been reduced to 5 minutes, as a lot of the details are not necessary for the progression of the story... they basically dragged the hell out of this episode, just to start the battle in a new episode instead of the middle of this episode. *TABLE FLIP This is so frustrating, those past 9 episodes I just felt like I just waited for the story to start ... I've even gone back to the (much better) manga last week and started to re-read it from where the last episode left off. Episode 7-8 should have had everything condensed in a single episode and then have everything made into this episode's content be condensed into 10 minutes, and then start the fricking action with the 4 groups fighting to destroy the crystals.

I liked it, but I'm upset that they dragged out the build up for a full episode. It sucks that the episode length always has to be ~20 minutes. The pacing would be much better if they didn't have that weekly release schedule for episodes that have to fit into a specific timeslot.

Hooooooo boy, this episode!! It's crazy to see how scary Rimuru can be when they're angry. Like, that aura burst when they saw Shion, and that face at the very end coupled with the line about no forgiveness..... Geez, this episode is how you do recap and buildup in one! I'm so hyped for next episode. I want to see how far Rimuru will take their hunger and bloodlust vs how much humanity Rimuru holds onto through the ravenous consumption of human souls.

Damn, another boring episode, it's best to change the title to "recap". The whole episode is basically only the mouth moving, no substantive actions, making the boring plot more and more boring. The pace is bad, it could have been two or three episodes to complete the story.

Also, the studio seems to be determined to constantly render a light-hearted atmosphere. The slime's voice is not serious, no matter how depressing the story is, his voice is light and cheerful, and even with the low probability of 3%, everyone has a relaxed face, as if everyone could be resurrected 100%. The most speechless thing is that the dwarven craftsman slowly tasting tea before giving his opinion… 😅

I wouldn’t have had a problem with this episode if we hadn’t had so many recaps this season. There was already a whole episode (24.9) just for that [not counting the recaps in other episodes]. Was it boring? A bit. Was it important for Rimuru’s allies to know about him? Yes. But that whole recap took too much of the episode’s run time, so it could’ve been done off-screen, showing only the allies’ reactions/consequences to that “revelation”. Tbh, the best part of this episode for me was literally the last thing they showed: next week’s episode title.

Another disaster of an episode. Feels like even the director is taking a piss out of this. Why didn't a better studio picked this? Slime is one the best selling manga/novels in Japan. Let's see if they can redeem this season in the remaining episodes, or we need a different director for the second cour.

Ngl, felt like a borderline re-cap episode, first half was heartwarming with talk of family and such, but then turned into Rimuru narrating events of the past season with multiple flashbacks, which we already know. His final decision on humans was, interesting, pretty big brain, but you can tell Rimuru still has faith of peaceful world of human / monster co-existence.
Gonna be honestly, felt way to dragged on for my taste, 10ish minutes of heart felt speeches topped with multiple flashbacks made me start to loose interest, 8-9 minutes of planning was decent, however only to realise this was basically just another build up episode, and that had me rolling my eyes.

All in all, i want to say i'm excited for next ep, but i said that last time and we got this re-cap episode of sorts, and at this point if i say it again i would feel like i'm lying to myself. Just really want some action at this point bro.
