| Rimuru, don't be mean to your loli. She is only loli you have. |
| Signature removed. It was too good for this cruel world. |
Mattinator95 said: bitchassdarius said: charybdis is even less of an important enemy because no one has any tragic history with charybdis, the audience and rimuru is just simply told "this guy is really tough." it's only relevance is that it was born from veldora, which just indicates it's conquerable and not really an enemy per se. defeating charybdis and the orc lord led to the same result, i.e. forming new allegiances, but charybdis is narratively less important than the orc lord, who actually inflicted trauma on rimuru's courtiers. it just happened to be "more powerful." of course you don't understand any of this yourself because you lack a working brain. keep using emojis to mask your lack of intelligence, no ones buying it. let me make a suggestion for you: try expanding your reading material of just shitty "deep-fried" instagram memes, your own texts, and corny manga to actual books. maybe that desert of a brain will be able to absorb some amount of knowledge charybdis was pretty much just shoehorned into the light novel just to fill a few pages and fix a few pacing issue the web novel had . I still don't know what the point of it was apart from getting a favor from a demon Lord and showing the power scale of the series. But it seems they cut quite alot the build up for charybdis as fray ( one of the Demon Lords ) as a history with it . Was it even explained why it was sealed in the first place Chrybdis arc is just trying to showcase that being OP yourself doesn't necessarily mean you will be able to save everybody . In other words , despite the fact charybdis can't do a thing to rimuru vice versa but... rimuru can't just ditch his friends and home either because he has the responsibility to protect all of em . Also [power scaling] , you're right xD |
Mattinator95 said: Kimurah said: Wadda ya' know. Another episode without any sense of danger or tension. This huge conflict was solved in 2 episodes. Charibdys was nothing more but a huge flying punching bag. And man, the humor doesn't get any better at all. Why would a non battle focused show need danger or tension Idk , Myb because of "Simon Says..."😂 |
bitchassdarius said: Grey-Zone said: The world doesn't revolve around Rimuru. That's what's shown here. We knew since last episode that Rimuru wasn't even the target of Charybdis and we got the battle because Rimuru was evaluating his own nation as too high and making too speculative inferences about Charybdis' motives for moving towards Tempest. Heck the reason why Clayman and the clowns even got involved with Charybdis in the first place was due to Frey and Charybdis itself. From the result it's obvious that they couldn't tame Charybdis and Clayman mentioned that he doesn't really care much about Tempest one way or another aside from Laplace's irky feeling, so Clayman's and the clowns motives about throwing out Charybdis are clearly part of the Demon Lord politics. The LN and manga do explain afterwards that Clayman let Charybdis loose through Forbio for the purpose of Forbio also did what he did due to Milim. He himself didn't seem to have any grudge against Rimuru or Tempest at any point. In other words, NO ONE involved with Charybdis targeted Tempest or Rimuru and he was essentially just a random bystander in Demon Lord politics and Forbio's grudge against Milim. This time is different from the Orc Disaster because unlike then where he was simply not known by anyone, this time he got ignored deliberately. It shows how no one even really views him as a "player" in the Demon Lord politics at this point. He is still considered "small fry" that can be ignored. So yes, this arc certainly did have a purpose, which is showing that not only Rimuru has troubles finding out how others view him, but also that Rimuru and Tempest aren't really on the Demon Lord's radar, aside from Carrion (only after the ordeal was over) and Milim who had directly interacted with Rimuru. The fight itself showed that Rimuru also has limitations, which in this case is a lack of decisive attack power that can break through strong defenses, while also showing off Milim's overwhelming might. it doesn't matter if the world doesn't revolve around rimuru, the story does. what i'm comparing is the setpiece of charybdis vs the white whale re:zero. no i'm not saying the set up has to be the same, because then i would just be arguing which premise i like better. but the white whale is the climax of re:zero and happens pretty much at the same exact time charybdis happens in this story. this has the makings to be a good setpiece, but it completely flops because nothing interesting ever happens in this show. you could try to argue "well that's not the point of tensura" but then you would just be denying the fact that charybdis is set up to be a calamity, that rimuru couldn't beat it alone, that rimuru had to call in all of his alliances to fight it, that this battle is a culmination of everything rimuru's done so far and this, more or less, is the de facto climax, i.e. you'd be in denial of how the show is actually written. Whether it is "interesting" is just your personal evaluation. Everyone has to decide that by themselves. Charybdis was hyped up by the likes of Fuze, but Rimuru didn't really pay it much attention aside from his too trope-reliant thinking which got exposed for what it was (to himself at least). Also you say that Charybdis would be classified as a calamity, but (and it's a valid criticism to hold it against the anime for not mentioning it) Rimuru himself is also considered at least on that level (calamity) in the LN/manga version. Moreover the JTF as a whole would even be considered Disaster-class (a rank higher than calamity) according to Gazel. So flaunting Charybdis' calamity ranking is pointless. Fuze never saw Rimuru fight before, nor have the adventurer trio since the fight against Ifrit (and even then they only saw up until the destruction of the salamanders at most) so they really aren't a good judge for the match up between the current Rimuru and Charybdis. And Charybdis is really just tanky. It wasn't as if Rimuru was truly out of options. It was just that he was out of "safe" options. He wanted to cleanly kill off the Charybdis then and there instead of playing games of tag or hide&seek with it, since he had no idea how long it would take Great Sage or himself to think up a method to eliminate it and he also didn't know if it would actually stubbornly follow him instead of, say, go after Tempest instead. But it's not like he in danger of being wiped out at any point either. It was that sort of stalemate-like predicament. On top of that, we were constantly aware of Milim being there. So if worst came to worst, they might just take the political damage head-on and rely on her that one time. The result where all of Tempest gets wiped out and everyone dies wasn't at the table at any point in this arc other than maybe when Milim first came to Tempest, since destroying Tempest all by herself would be childsplay for her. |

| OH my God! people are as stubborn as always they will not be removed the impression that this is a shonen of action as if it were naruto or my hero academy, has given this despite the fact that in its first episode there was no no fight and then the 3 monsters that were found in the cave were simple prey to demonstrate Rimuru's absorption ability. They are as wrong as the reviewer here http://doublesama.com/2019/02/11/that-time-i-got-reincarnated-as-a-slime-episode-19/ |
Sushantbro said: I used to enjoy this until 12 episode but now I am not enjoying this that much. Exactly the same, but I watched it all in a row from ep 1 to episode 16, and the 17 ep was a filler, so I thought the next one would have been better, but apparently it was not... I was so hyped for the battle against Charybdis, but it wasn't t that good...overall this episode was not good, the only good thing was Milim doing those Kawaii cute eyes and attacking Charybdis |
 |
| Not as great as some of the previous episodes, but this one was still very good. =) Charybdis was pretty fearsome as Shion, Ranga and the others had some trouble with him. Rimuru's attacks looked powerful as usual and the whole animation segment of the battle was nice. Of course, it was then that Charybdis uttered Milim's name and that confirmed that Milim was the main target, but she wasn't worried at all. Our favourite cute loli was going to show some "restraint" on Charybdis, but she still ended up doing a one-shot attack on him that even Saitama from One Punch Man would be proud of. =3 The whole fight came to an end and Carrion came along to clear up the mess made by his Dorio......by ramming Dorio's face into the ground and having him bleed heavily. XD Aside from that, it's good to see Rimuru and Carrion come to a peaceful resolution and all things are good again, for now. The battle, overall, wasn't as long as I thought it would've been, but seeing the whole alliance work together and also some good animation sequences used to take down the small flying fishes during the attack was a treat. In the end, I was still satisfied as usual. =P |
| The first real test for Rimuru's alliance is finally here. It was fun watching the previously hostile races work together as they face the whale. The puppy dog eyes expression really suits Milim lol. The flying ninja's sure was a cool concept. Shion and Ranga though sure make quite the team. Rimuru's entry into the battle this time sure was timely. Despite the teamwork however the enemies regen speed sure put paid to their offensive. Its nice that Milim finally gets her chance to fight Charybdis. She was the key that ended up giving Rimuru the victory that had been so elusive. To think that Carrion himself would make an appearance. Excellent ep as always with the battle and the teamwork being the main highlights. Looks like the Harlequin's are rapidly becoming a dangerous faction for the nation. |

| I swear the moment Milim did those puppy eyes to Rimuru was the cutest thing she done so far! This fight was rather quick if you ask me. Saw some nice action though with also Gabiru being usefull. That orc was impressive as well, stopping one of those megalodon's! Milim is so strong, what the hell! Carrion shows up and also promises not to raise a weapon towards Rimuru's nation! |
 |
| Although I do agree that the fight could have lasted a bit longer, I really do love this show for reasons people seem to dislike it. OP protag ✔ Everyone liking the protag ✔ A lighthearted atmosphere ✔ Jokes here and there ✔ Maybe I'm just too into the lighter side of isekai/fantasy shows... |

| So many ppl complaining about how short the battle against charybdis . Let me tell u smthn , every battle in tensura is relatively short😂 Even if it's technically a long ass battle , they won't give us any details due to the fact tensura isn't battle oriented story whatsoever . Ergo there won't be a lot of hella deep meaningful fight like in a lot of shounen fights out there . In tensura what matters a lot is about the aftermath after the fights , just take a close at many fights up until now . It's always all about the aftereffects mumbo jumbo , it's about how rimuru and the gang dealing with the aftermaths . In other words , it's basically how these shit affecting the world in general . Like it or not , that's exactly the side effects of building a new nation , especially a new nation full of monsters would look like fam . Tensura is a story about a lone slime building a nation from scratch . In the beginning of the series for example ; thanks to rimuru tried to save his friend - veldora by eating him... the whole world in chaos😂 > setting hordes of monsters loose , > n then they're starting to eat each other . > demon lords are starting to move as well , we've seen it already with the hordes of orcs mumbo jumbo . > as the result , lizardmen race n ogres race almost on the brink of extinction . See . Everythn hits the fan due to rimuru's one simple decision in a couple of minutes , thus firstly he had to step in to save goblin village [go watch episode 2] . It's pretty much the same things with how ; 1. the aftermath after killing direwolf boss 2. the aftermath after devouring ifrit 3. the aftermath after subduing the ogres 4. the aftermath after consuming geld - the orc disaster 5. the aftermath after slapping demon lord n taking her with you 6. I can't wait for what's the aftereffects after beating this charybdis and making alliances with the beast kingdom yuurazania XD that being said , tensura does have some hella super meaningful ultra great delicious wonderful deep fights . |

| Great episode. I don't know how Rimuru can refuse Milim. I'd be a done in a matter seconds if I had to face those puppy eyes and pouts. XD Action sequences were awesome as always and Milim showed a lot of restraint today so good for her. XD Carrion turns out to be quite a decent guy, somehow I did not expect that. That poor soul got pounded by him though. With all the peace and diplomatic relations in this show, I wonder if the true intent of this show is to show that world peace is possible. XDD Looking forward to see where we go from here. |

It is a pity that there are people who can not enjoy the love that exudes this work, Rimuru is very tender and only gives love to all his family ;_;  Well I'm sure that in the future people will reconsider it and have another vision of the anime when they see the isekai of the goddess loli uwu |

| The sound when carrion whacked phobia made me go...OoOoOOooof |
| Is it just me or is there always horrible audio distortion during every action scene? |
 |
| An interesting battle. As I expected, all of the armies are took action on this battle, including some armies from allied country. Really blew me with war strategy game's atmosphere Now I really want to play one of that game again. This battle also proved that Rimuru's power is still weaker than some demon lord, including Milim. He isn't as OP as what we thought. p.s. : now I checked again about Milim's seiyuu. Ahh, I see. Hello there, Wang Kochou. I really loves that cute voice. |
| They're weakening Charybdis so that Rimuru can eat it...right? Wait...Rimuru kept Mirim out of the fight because he thought Charybdis was going after him? And all of those forces only did about 30% damage? And then Mirim just nukes Charybdis all by herself... Dorf is calling Milim a "secret weapon" because he doesn't want to tell Gazel that Rimuru has allied himself with a Demon Lord. Hehehe... Now Rimuru has Beastmasters on his side now? How much stronger is this nation going to get? |

In the beginning of the story , after Barusu got transported to another world out of nowhere... he literally Didn't Even Question about it . Why ? . It Does make sense Doesn't it ? Pftt Not to mention , it literally took this dude Countless Deaths just to Realize he has [return by death] ability . Get your shit together Tracer! lol Moreover, Barusu is instantly Falling Head Over Heels In Love with a Random Lass named Satella/not Emilia for No Reason at all . Why ? Talk about Realistic huh ? XD it should be noted , This dude somehow even went out of his way to literally do Everthn For the Sake of this Random Lass , wtf dude?! talk about Unhealthy Relationship Pftt Let alone Dyin Countless Times For the Sake this Random Lass I barely knew . If that was me I wouldn't care less about her WHATSOEVER , I would've GTFO after my First Death . It Does make perfect sense Doesn't it ? |

| Looks ike I'm one of the few crazy masochists that really has lost the connection for this anime. The first few episodes were done very enjoyable and adorable, but now, jeez... They really need to do something about those sound distortions for the action scenes. My original score used to be an 8/10 for the first few episodes. Now my own score is already at 3/10 here. How far we have become. :-) |

| I think episodes like this are important as it help us grasp the power level of each character better. I didn't have the impression that Charybdhis can match up to Milim at all before this episode. The reason that the masked demon lord mentioned that he will have a fighting chance against Millim was probably just to trick him. So I did kinda expected Milim to quickly end the fight (but damn, not expecting it with one attack xD). |

| ♬ Nothing's gonna change my love for you You ought to know by now how much I love you One thing you can be sure of I'll never ask for more than your love ♬ |
| In this episode we saw part of the director’s incompetence for distributing the pace badly, that CGI really kill my boner... Honestly I think it’s still better compared to the cuts they’re making to Tate no Yuusha. This is only the second or third time I feel like even part of an episode has been a problem. |

| No surprise that the CGI on the sharks that Charybdis summoned was absolute garbage, but it was surprising to see just how bad the animation of Rimuru's flight was: it looked ridiculously jagged and totally unnatural, which is a big disappointment. Also, even before Milim got involved there was absolutely no sense of tension whatsoever, so this was pretty much completely redundant as usual. Also, the fact that Milim did end up one-shotting it just proves my point from last week about how shit and lazy the writing is, as it proves that her help was only refused to drag this arc out a little bit more (cos it would be even more unsubstantial than it already is if they didn't). This whole show just feels more and more aimless every week. And holy crap, reading through this thread shows that some people will not accept any criticism of this show at all, so I can't wait to get quoted eight or whatever times again to say that my opinion is shit or what have you. |
