An exposition heavy episode. It focused more on the aftermath of Rimuru's battle with Clayman and him becoming a Demon Lord.

Some parts of it were interesting. But it’s pretty wild Rimuru and his friends didn’t even appear properly in this episode.

It's nice that the different parties have received the news in time. A lot of arrogant intents were momentarily stalled for the time being.
They really weren't expecting Rimuru to become a Demon Lord back then and most of them were dismissing Rimuru as just a self-proclaimed 'leader' and some were just saying that he is just riding on Veldora's strength but now they know he is a new world power. Can't wait for the anime to get at least closer to how it is in the LN right now.

Good episode, I appreciate the slow build up we're getting this season. It's making for a bigger payoff later this season. Loving the Luminous x Hinata lore. Really excited to see where this goes with Diablo being the one pulling the strings in Falmuth.

Only thing that didn't hit right for me this week was the OP. I can't quite put my finger on it but this season's OP isn't really to my liking. Hopefully it grows on me but as of right now I can't say it's playlist worthy.

22 more episodes incoming, I'm hyped up.

So Hinata is probably the who and how of the "poke" of their response? And who/what are these angels they're referring to?

Roy Valentine is killed by Yuuki’s clown. Demon Lord Valentine seems to run a smooth town herself, but doesn’t seem to like Rimuru doing the same for the monsters.

Hinata is her lackey, and I realised it now. So she knows an eastern merchant, and that he’s been misguiding her. She reflects on her interaction with Rimuru. I wonder if she’ll approach Rimuru herself.

I wonder what this whole thing on angels is about. Guess it’ll be one of the enemies in the future.

Falmuth King abdicates the throne to his brother. I thought Youm was to be the king 🤔. Whatever, Diablo and the King signed the agreement.

Ah second episode of slime and albeit it being a slow episode there was some backstories and learn more about the enemies plans of how they are all going forward against Rimuru’s country. Interesting to see where this will go from here.

Ah, so they explained that it was a new moon, making Valentine weaker and thus why he lost. Yeah, I'm not satisfied. I still think it's stupid that Laplis was easily able to kill him like it was taking candy from a baby.

I hope everyone in Kagali's party dies like Clayman. I hate clowns, especially the Kansai-accent bastard and Yuuki.

Ironic that the Holy Church empire which sees monsters as humanity's common enemy, is run by literal monsters, namely vampire demon lords.

I see that Hinata is starting to realize the informant is using her against Rimuru. Although she's still too stubborn and continues to reject everything that Rimuru has said about himself to her, likely still believing he skilled Shizu. Hinata eats up that fake news like the average voter.

Who the hell is hero Masayuki? I don't think they introduced him yet. So Falmuth king will abdicate the throne to his younger brother Edward who secretly is happy about it. I wonder how Youm will eventually become king.

Everyone wants a piece of Rimuru. As if they haven’t learned already. Can’t wait for the clash between the Church and Tempest. Rimuru’s squad washing them. And funny Diablo alone came take them all on. What is that church going to do outside of maybe some cheap tricks to get a quick advantage?

As always, this Yuuki guy is scheming again...

(wonder what he's going to do this time... since last one was stupid Clayman, and that one failed, lol)

.

We get some backstory or lore about Hinata and Valentine.

And apparently... Hinata isn't really on the side of Humans, but rather she's Valentine's follower.

.

And... apparently there's going to be a War between the Vampires and Angels? but Rimuru's kingdom is making the Angels starting their operations earlier...

But... bunch of people STILL wants to kill Rimuru and otaku-dragon... even after learning how strong they become.

And here I thought the Demon Lords would have a good vibe with Rimuru, specially after Rimuru gave them a new group name... guess not...

.

Peak politics, Peak negotiations, Peak World building. We move. Now, that's how a great show works. I'm loving every bit of this show. Hinata is too cocky for her own good. She has no idea who she's trying to mess with.

Episodes focussing on politics, worldbuilding and build up are actually essential for longer running fantasy series. The good ones, that is.

This is my first time doing this on here but I assume this is how to reply to comments. This has to be one of the most realistic takes on these starting episodes and people who say episodes like this are boring but then love stuff like Miyagido forget that without these episodes you wouldn’t care abt anything else that’s going on and you would be one of those people who go why are we fighting this person again. lol

@Retr0Omega

I can see why people would think it's boring when they don't care for the characters or discussed matters. Then again, if you're 3 seasons in you should care at least a little. The direction is a bit dull admittedly.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I also feel that tensura is a very difficult show to come back after years of waiting bc I remember binging S1-2 is what brought me out of being burnt out on anime. And a criticism that I have abt the anime is that especially after ep 3 is how they pace the meetings making all of the super juicy info in ep2 then making ep 3 all of the less juicy stuff is a interesting decision

I see, so that's the reason Hinata decided to follow Valentine, for the so called "peace" that loomed around the evil Demon Lords not reacting and the humans staying as they are. Rimuru's appearance seems to have thrown a chain on that stability since now they'll start to question whether they should respect this status quo or not. Meanwhile, we're seeing Diablo's plan in motion although that shadow smile at the end makes me think that not everything will go accordingly in that change of rulers... maybe.

Yuki and the Harlequin Alliance having lost Clayman, this dealt them with quite the loss, and their meeting to recoup their losses and share intel to help defeat Rimuru slowly with precision.

Hinata being in Lubelius to recuperate over the events that she saw herself in from facing vampire Lady Luminus, only to see herself defeated with submission to her, As is with dealing with Rimuru, Hinata has more than enough episodes that she faced against him in the past, and the Great Forest of Jura is a deemed threat for all the Western Nations, that is if Rimuru survives Walpurgis (which he did).

The combination of Veldora and Rimuru has caused conflict to even Luminus, which Tempest itself is a stronghold to even rage war against, as much as the strongest players like Hinata are valuable. Whether to make enemies out or against Tempest, Luminus may still have the power to take action, but for Falmuth, they have already resigned once for which the king will pay for his actions, alongside all of the news from Walpurgis that leaves Falmuth no choice but to submit to Rimuru.

With Falmuth down, Tempest is close to growing more enemies, being more challenged than ever.

Yay the Harlequin alliance is back. Those clowns are so silly yet so powerful. Hinata fighting to a draw with two demon lord level vampires, only for them to get revived right after is definitely the anime version of losing in a video game cutscene.

I wonder how much more of Luminus we’ll get to see in the series and what her relevance will be when it comes to the Jura Tempest Federation. I also wonder if Hinata is realizing that Rimuru isn’t the villain that she assumed him to be and maybe they can build some kind of peaceful relationship… I mean it’s in her best interest since he’s now a Demon Lord and has amassed quite the army along with Veldora himself (who Roy Valentine was telling her that she can’t beat).

So outside of that it seems that a lot of politics are going on and it’ll take some time before any actual fighting commences. I’m still trying to briefly go through the first two seasons to get a rundown on everything, but now I re remember that the principal of the school in Engrassia was working with Clayman.

Well here’s to Episode 3, Peaceful Days.
