Will season 3 be delayed until manga progresses or will the anime continue based on the Light Novels instead?
That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime
| Season 2 part 2 will catch up to and surpass the manga. Do we think the anime will be put on hold until the manga progresses further or will they continue to animate with the Light Novel as a source instead of the manga? If they put it on hold with the manga having monthly releases, it could be years before we see a season 3, I hope they push forward with the Light Novels instead. |

| They are going off of the light novels since that is the original source material. The manga will always be a decent bit behind. |
| All the stars in the sky await you! |
| It's obviously going to be based off the LN. It's normal for an anime series to be based off it's source material. |

| I don't know maybe, just trying to be helpful lol. |

The WN was adapted into LN, the LN was adapted in manga and the manga is actually what the anime is based on. |

The Manga is an adaptation of the LN though, so it’ll always be a bit ahead with more content. |

| The series was always based on LN. Though it is sometime rushed, it is ultimately adapted from LN. You can check this by going to 'Adaptation' Part of Related Anime tab. And the answer to your question, since it has always been following LN, it will continue to follow LN. |

AnimeJunki3 said: They are already following lightnovel not manga The staff page on the homepage literally credits the manga "published in Kodansha's 'Monthly Shounen Sirius' " as the source material. And the copyright notice at the bottom even outright says "Kodansha" (manga publisher) but doesn't mention "Micromagazine" (LN publisher). Whoever changed the source material from manga to LN for both seasons and removed Kodansha while adding Micromagazine as producer for season 1 in the MAL database should get their eyes checked because they have clearly not even done the most basic research of checking the staff page on the official anime website.

Is the manga different from the light novel? If it isn't then the anime is adapted from the light novel. There are some very slight differences. For example, the whole thing with Shizu being Rimuru's "fated person" was not in the LN and was instead introduced in the manga (apart from that, though, she's very similar), and various slight character traits that were in the LN were left out in the manga, and vice versa. The anime has been adapting the manga (while making slight changes), and the manga has been adapting the LN (while making slight changes). |
| Since the manga is being overseen by the writer himself, I suspect that it will make little difference going forward if it's the light novel or the manga. In one of the chapters' afterword, the original writer even said that the only major differences between the two is that he's able to flesh out a little more details that were left ambiguous in the light novel with the visualization that comes from illustrations in manga format. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| A kindly reminder that this anime is invested mostly by the manga’s publisher, not the LN’s. |

S2 has been pretty disappointing (the only thing I've really enjoyed from it has been the soundtrack); I was just clarifying that the anime follows the manga, and the manga follows the LN. "Slight" was definitely a poor choice of words on my part. Edit: Thank you :) |

| The ligth novel is the original story so its more accurate to base it on the ligth novel. |

Read the other posts here. The manga is the main source. |

Sayan_Pal said: no,manga is not,light novel is I’m not talking about what came first, I’m talking about what the anime is mainly adapting from, which is the manga. The LN is the OG tho since it came before the manga |

Sayan_Pal said: argosblock1 said: anime is mainly adapted from ln,look the sourceI’m not talking about what came first, I’m talking about what the anime is mainly adapting from. What MAL has put is incorrect though. It says it right there on the opening credits and staff page. 原作 Original Work “(講談社「月刊少年シリウス」連載)” (Serialized in Kodansha’s “Monthly Shounen Sirius”) (the magazine that the manga is serialized in) Whatever the official website says is correct, regardless of what MAL says. |

Yeah usually that is the case. |

Yeah "most" do, but Slime is an exception, as here the manga is the primary source while the LN is merely a secondary source. |

Sayan_Pal said: Grey-Zone said: no, when season 1 adapted, manga is not close enough to anime so it is adapted from lnYeah "most" do, but Slime is an exception, as here the manga is the primary source while the LN is merely a secondary source. Thats incorrect. Season 1 ended in March 2019 which corresponds to chapter 52 of the manga. Chapter 52 of the manga released around February 2019, which is before S1 ended. Volume 4 of the Light Novel (where S1 ended iirc) released in 2015 in Japan |
Dukino said: That is always the case. The anime adapts from the light novel, its the original source and the authors work. The manga is written by someone else being adapted from the light novels. Both the manga and anime are adaptations, novels are the source Then why does the anime credit the manga and not the light novel |
| Yep, the anime is crediting the manga as the main source for the adaptation, that’s what the official media says, it doesn’t matter what MAL says. |

Sayan_Pal said: argosblock1 said: because only this seasonYep, the anime is crediting the manga as the main source for the adaptation, that’s what the official media says, it doesn’t matter what MAL says. It says the same thing in the opening credits for the past seasons. |
