| Heh, for once I got an action-packed anime Christmas Eve after all. Glad to see Ranga's Death Storm in animated form, muh boi never ceases to amaze me. Sushantbro said: UImoetard said: The main characters are a bit overpowered especially rimuru. He takes every enemy pretty easily. I hope they maintain the power balance between the battle with orc lord otherwise it won't be fun at all.The ogre group looked pretty capable when they tried to assassinate Rimuru. They definitely looked much stronger than lizardman, even the named Gabiru, but the orcs didn’t seem to have any ogre’s power. Though, the group is pretty much the royal guards so they might be special. The power jump when evolved to kijin is still quite ridiculous. Don't worry about that, the power ceiling of the series is on an absurd level actually. Rimuru rn is like a RPG Disc 2 MC going back to a Disc 1 area to get some items that's inaccessible the first time, and his power ranking rn is quite low in the pecking order of this universe. At his level, Demon Lords can wipe him on the floor without much difficulty. |

| I knew the tides would turn as soon as the almighty Gobta showed up.....but in all seriousness, Rimuru's side really turned things around in this battle. The Kijin group impressed me a lot as well. It sucks that we have to wait an extra week to see the fight against the Orc Lord, but I expect it to be awesome. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Enjoyable episode, finally some shit is going down. |

| the animation in this ep was amazing |
| NOBODY MENTIONS CASTLEVANIA???? |
 |
| 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. He can definitely fight and might probably be owning up to his mistake already by putting his life on the line. Ranga's wide range attack is fucking deadly, jesus and so is Benimaru's. The reactions of the Lizardmen were hilarious. Glorious, loved it. |
| Souei: omae wa mou....shindeiru... Orc General: Nan----(dies).... one of many epic moments in this episode! |
 |
| What an amazing episode, i love this show! Kijin are badasses! But now we have to wait ~2 weeks for the next episode? :"( |

| So the final moment with orc lord in the next episode ... 2 weeks will be long 😪😪 |
 |
| Souei's powers are amazing, I hope we get to see more of them. This episode was pretty intense, can't wait to see next episode. Also, wasn't that mask supposed to suppress his powers? Why did he put it on? Am I missing something lol ... |

"That smile was like the sun on a hot summer day...with eyes like ice." |
| This is just what I needed before the arrival of Christmas Day, a very action-packed episode of Slime! ^_^ It was a real treat to see a lot of lovely animation into this episode, from Gabiru's one on one fight against the Orc General to the insane Death Storm attack from Ranga. The Kijin's attacks were also very brutal and spectacular as well. Shion unleashed her sword that swep hundreds of Orcs and created a big fissure in the ground, then waved at Rimuru in the sky with a smile on her face. She's gorgeous, but scary as well. Souei's attacks were just savage, though. The Lizardmen's gobsmacked reactions to Souei's killing move on the Orc was funny, but I too would reacted like that after seeing a move that deadly. Now comes the battle between Rimuru and the Orc Lord. This episode was really great, but this upcoming fight has me really hyped up. Make it another great one, 8bit! =D |
| This episode was fun to watch. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Awesome episode. The war didn't disappoint, I'm glad the animation and production value is still top notch. Gabiru is actually a good dude, he stands up for his allies, refused to retreat because he had the goblins with him and was even willing to duel against the general to save his subordinates. I guess it's just that his immediate friends are the wrong kind of influence on him. The Kijin and Ranga wrecking the orc army was crazy good and very satisfying too watch, I want more of that. XD Ikemen Souei is just too cool for the world. xDD Rimuru vs Orc Lord next episode? I'm excited. |
 |
| Gotta love, even with the OP skillset Rimuru has, he still is envious of Souei's skills XD Action was really enjoyable, with some great animated scenes. Rimuru watching over everything and seeing how strong his followers actually are. Those Kijin are super strong now as well. Souei's attack on that Orc with the Lizard Chieftain was brutal as hell. Loved it! The Lizardmen's reaction to that though. Can't blame them for being shocked XD Next fight is gonna be hype! |
 |
| I love how fluid the animation is, 8bit doing an absolute steller job with this series. When each episode ends I feel like and could watch another 10, it's that engaging. |
| So. An army of 200.000 invaders. They constantly feel a great sense of hunger and eat everything. Even their fallen comrades. I have two words for you. Poison arrows. Kill one orc with a poison arrow. Step back and watch him be eaten. Then the orcs who ate him will die and, again, be eaten by other orcs. Replenish poison where necessary. And don't you dare telling me that nobody has access to a powerful poison. The dryad has supervision over an entire forest and sees everything in it, according to herself. The lizardmen chieftain has spent his whole, long life fighting and living in his swamp. And Rimuru (I think?) has learned a poison-based skill himself. Even if he didn't, he has more than enough advisers to get him one. So literally EVERY faction involved can get poison and should be well versed in using poison. But of course that's not necessary because Rimuru&friends can just kill any- and everything with a fingersnip. That was such a boring solution to a possibly intriguing enemy. |
 |
| The orcs didn't stand a chance against Rimuru and friends. The lizardmen's reactions to Souei was priceless. lol |
UImoetard said: 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. The Ogre village was tiny. Around 500 people I believe. Sharing that across 200,000 isn't going to make a noticeable dent. The only noticeable difference would occur on the front lines. Which is what you see in the episode. Just because a few lizardmen die doesn't mean the whole army has webbed feet. Also, I would assume the Orc Generals/Lord would have gotten the lion share of those ogre corpses. Rigurd and Gobta are at the same level evolution-wise. Its merely a joke that Gobta appears incompetent. To the point that it doesn't even look like he evolved. drakenastor said: How are his subordinates so OP. He's suppose to be stronger than them yeah? He could wreck the continent lol. Then he's just acting all surprised like he just realized how powerful they are too. lol. Orc lords gonna get rekted. Rimuru routinely under and overestimates things. As a man from earth he is completely unaware of how power levels work in this new world. And slight spoiler, they're not op at allllll. Eoc said: So. An army of 200.000 invaders.

This is actually a really interesting idea, but from how the skill works I'd assume they're immune to poison. Hell, it might even just give them poison powers. |
| "The future ain't what it used to be" |
| 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. |

ManMythPimp said: This is actually a really interesting idea, but from how the skill works I'd assume they're immune to poison. Hell, it might even just give them poison powers. *sigh* If they're really capable of just eating anything and be fine/gain powers, then they should just stop marching and start eating the ground they stand on. I'm not knowledgeable of the in-universe rules, but if that were the case, then there would be no need to march in the first place? If more details were given somewhere, I must have missed them. |

redcobra said: No you can't because instead dead because poisoning, the orc army will be have poinson resistance because how the world works. The orc army have similar skill as rimuru. Just like gobuta did when eating shion cooking. Huh, I thought Gobuta just got lucky. Rimurus reaction kinda got me thinking that way. Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming you for explaining or anything, but if the orcs would really just gain resistance against anything unfavourable by encountering it ONCE then that is boring world building. It leads to every violent conflict being resolved by person A and person B whacking each other on the head with hammers and the person with the bigger hammer winning. What a thrill. |

How would eating the ground be nourishing? They're hungry for meat. The world is very game-like btw. The poison would be a skill or enchantment or something like that. The mechanics aren't exactly like the real world. |

Its merely a joke that Gobta appears incompetent. To the point that it doesn't even look like he evolved. At least a few hundred orcs were shown to gain some of lizardman’s power after eating one of them (increase movement speed in swarm). Not sure how large was the ogre village, but the majority of orcs should have gotten ogre’s power. I am certain they stated Rigurd was promoted to a Goblin King, and Gobta should still be a Hobgoblin. They shouldn’t be same evolution unless Rigurd’s title is just a name only. NdanHM said: nah, Gobuta is strongest in Goblin Tribe, Rimuru say Gobuta is Genious but cant be a teacher rigurd evolution more to be administration role, not a fighter role There seems to be a direction correlation between monster title and strength established in this show so far, as all evolved monsters became significantly stronger. Yea sure, one hobgoblin might be stronger than another hobgoblin, but I doubt it's easy to surpass a monster that has a higher rank (Goblin King). I would be really surprised if one genius normal orc in the orc army is somehow stronger than an orc general. NdanHM said: that already explained, when rimuru give ogre's a name with rimuru magic power, he normally can give a name for 300++ individual in Ogre Case, magic power which can give a name for 300++ monsters that give to only 6 individual, so an ogre get same 50x rimuru's magic power for 1 monster, and rimuru already at Demon King Tier so that way Kijin ridiculous strong Not really, that would only mean a regular ogre is 50x stronger than a regular goblin, which is reasonable. There is no correlation to the magnitude of power jump (evolved ogre's boost in strength doesn't have to be larger than evolved goblin's boost). |

The mechanics aren't exactly like the real word. Unless the fansubs were inaccurate it was never mentioned that they are specifically looking for meat? It was described as "a state on the verge of starvation". They should be able to/want to eat next to anything. They might get a dozen skills or favourable traits out of eating the earth and grass anyway But I should probably stop now. I don't understand these rules anymore. |
|
| Really cool episode, but seriously how did they get so strong? It's like they went straight from level 20 to level 90. |
It's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. |
| I'm really surprised how enjoyable this anime is I'm always frustrated I couldn't watch all the episodes in one row, I feel like every episode is way too short and ends way too quickly I really hope this anime gets a second season, which is very likely to happen according to the rating and the overall reception |
| Real episode indeed! Everyone at Rimuru's camp is way beyond strong, but that Ranga was the real deal for me (personally love that wolf). Gabil was in way above his league for thinking he could contain those orcs. I guess it's The master's turn to display his strength. I wonder who would win if Ains's squad could face up with Rimuru's? They both seemed to be overlords both of them. Anyways great episode, |

I totally forgot. I knew there was something. Thanks. The mask doesn't suppress his powers, it just suppresses his aura, so he appears weak to others. He can wear the mask and fight completely fine, the opponent just won't know what's hitting them until it's too late. |

| I'm disappointed in the execution of this battle: The over the top powers of Rimuru's subordinates ruined and killed whatever tension was built for the past couple of episodes. All that hype about the orcs being an actual threat was nothing more than hyperbole. There's no point for Rimuru to even go himself. Gabiru's fight was really good and was within the narrative of orcs being an overwhelming scourge, after that scene, it just fell into the shounen trope of superpowered beings blasting away irrelevant foes that were built up as unstoppable. Pretty underwhelming imo. |

| great episode animation wise not surprised by the outcome after they showed up what ever tension that got built vanished was like"yep looks like they'll take care of everything easily" i mean we knew this from the start it's that kind of show. wonder if this show will run to power level struggle at this rate also Shion's sword looks like inuyasha's |

Its funny how a lot people keep complain that rimuru and his friends are too OP, no. Its not yet to complain, Rimuru and kijin is too weak at this point. One of the demon lord could destroy rimuru effortlessy |

| well that was awesome...stupid Gabiru...I hope he falls down a hierarchy or something.... damn the the undeniable strength |
