| I was honestly expecting an angry Riumuru. Lots of people died and 3 minutes later, they were discussing politics calmly? Kinda bad imo, maybe I was expecting too much. |
Kuretaiyo said: nah I wanted to see her get her head cut off lol her attitude really pisses me offFor me was Rimuru just too soft to Myuulan,She could just walk like She was ally, She should be in some prison atleast |
Blue_Maroon said: It felt like everything in this episode could have been told in 10 minutes. After Hinata left Rimuru showed no sense of urgency getting back to the kingdom, then when he does return, nobody can tell him what happened for 8 minutes. Why didn’t the ninjas take out the people putting up/keeping up the barrier? Or is it that barriers are so OP that they take little magic to create and you don’t need to be there to keep it up? Many people were required for the barrier around tempest and it still wasn’t stronger than the one Hinata used. How does she have THAT much magic to still be able to summon spirits and an incineration spell? Why didn’t Benimaru protect the citzens instead of going after the girl that 2 allies are covering for and clearly regrets her actions? The characters’ actions are so frustrating and even if there are logical explanations, this anime does a poor job at conveying them. I liked that people actually died, but it doesn’t look like anyone of important died despite being completely overwhelmed. the chruch guys including hinata were borrowing the power of the god, so they basically spent zero mana in casting the barrier, incineration spell etc out of iirc 10k monsters, tempest only lost around 100-ish monsters so benimaru and the others arguably did a decent job in minimizing the casualties |
| The pacing of the show continues to give old Dragonball a run for the money, especially the fact that Rimuru comes back to the city and nobody talks to him about what happened. More and more people arrive and nobody gives an update on the situation drawing it out until we get to a council situation where things finally get revealed to him. All this in a situation that seemingly needed fast action, instead the reporting to Rimuru gets dragged insane length, evaporating every pretense of urgency in the process that were build up before. I don't know who is at fault for decisions to botch this decent show to this degree, but I hope they don't touch any other anime with potential to be at least good. |
 |
| To be honest if I was Rimuru I woulda dropped Myulan regardless, maybe that's why I'm not the ruler of a nation. Still, her actions led to the death of so many hoboglobins. Benimaru is pretty cool. War Arc inc? |

Also, we never saw Benimaru fighting the invaders either. I don’t wantto hear abouth the “no attacking humans” rule because they were slaughtering civilians and Benimaru attacked Youm while he was defending Mjurran. |
| They didn't show Gobuzo or Shion but the next episode is called "Hope" ? Weird thing to do. They should put all Despair part in this episode. |
| That was really grim if you ask me, the sights of what happened to Tempest and I am surprised Rimuru didn't lose his shit and retaliate. Well, he barely escaped with his own life as well against Hinata. Also that Disintegration was epic! Hopefully Myulan doesn't go unpunished... All I wish now is Milim to come in hot and Nuke the living hell out of Falmuth...... Kaiseki said: Also what happened to Shion btw.. This so much, they mention that Hakurou is severley wounded and that Shuna is treating both him and Gobta, but no word on Shion, that really worries me... |
 |
| Please show no mercy for those falmouth bastards, Rimuru-sama |
 |
| Rimuru made a very smart decision during his fight against Hinata to make a doppelganger version of himself. Her attacks were devastating (nice sounds effects, too), but thank god she wasn't observant enough to notice where Rimuru was hiding. XD However, the worst was to come when Rimuru came back to Tempest to see it mostly in ruins. The encounter with him and Myulan after arriving when Benimaru lost his cool was well done, but seeing the blood splattered on the walls and ground and dozens of dead citizens lined up in the square really hits home the title of this episode, despair. Rimuru's expressions showcased that despair really well. Myulan finally reveals to Rimuru and the others that she serves under Clayman, who's the mastermind behind this whole mess. Hopefully she'll fully co-operate with Rimuru for now, as there's no time to rest. The barrier is still up and although Hakurou and Gobta will make a recovery, there wasn't any mention of Shion or Gobzo. This gives me a bad feeling... Overall, this episode was really good and certainly did its job well in showcasing the dire situation Tempest is in right now and what everyone needs to do before Falmuth attacks again. Let there be hope... |
| We lost 1 minute of the episode reviewing the battle just to explain when Rimuru made a clone. I hoped that Rimuru would solve the fight in a more exciting way than just run away. But running was not a bad thing, it was an excellent decision. I thought Shion and Shuna were going to die. Since the first season I knew that the promise of not killing humans would be a shot in the foot, even in modern laws it is important to avoid killing anyone, except in self-defense. Naren-kun said: As soon as Mjurran was introduced i Fell for her. But the way she grows feelings for youm is making my head boil .Everything is going on a bit too quick.In episode 4 they barely know each other (which i would prefer).But However the next episode starts with youm sleeping in her lap (which made me think whether this is the correct season) I also found their relationship developing too fast. Primeval said: Was Myulan in control of her actions? Or was she completely controlled by Clayman? Just because he can listen to her thoughts doesn't mean he has full control of her actions. Unless someone can correct me on that info. I read the spoilers as to what will happen next and I'm really not fucking satisfied of how they handled her. Clayman has her heart. Severe punishment against her could divide allies. Killing her would have no practical benefit. But keeping she alive can be a good way to get information from the enemy and use she to transmit false information to enemies, even though herself doesn't know it. At least that's how I would handle it. The economic losses are great. In a war of attrition there are two things to keep in mind. 1. The more information you have about the enemy and the less information the enemy has about you, the easier it is to wear out the enemy economically. 2. A decapitation surgical attack decentralizes enemy forces and causes disorder and chaos in opponents. So I think Rimuru is a kind leader. But I share the same view as Gazel, rimuru is naive. He knows absolutely nothing about what is going on around him, and is very relaxed about it. His lack of urgency is an example of this. A good leader and a good RPG player would focus on getting as much information about the surroundings and their rivals. He knows absolutely nothing about Clayman's power and has done nothing effective to find out. He spent a long time playing in hot springs in an unknown land with unknown dangers. The defenses of tempest are also of a defensive strategy inferior to what we know from the Copper Age. With so many resources at their disposal, they made a wooden wall as if that would protect them from other high-level monsters. The defense perimeter is very short. So many magical or conventional communication techniques are totally wasted by him. In short, he is a mediocre but gentle Japanese who has reincarnated there. What he needs is a Japanese advisor who has at least above average intelligence or will have problems. I have seen many comments about Milim. But I fear that it is possible that she is no longer on their side. In fact, in a world with magic, Rimuru should be prepared for any psychokinesis technique against his allies and himself. I saw people talking about how terrible humans are for killing in the name of business issues. Well ... without trade the people starve to death. In their place, I would not give a week of surrender. I would have done annihilation on the first attack. It would keep only those responsible for some technologies to absorb their knowledge. This story of villain giving the protagonist time is very ridiculous. It’s like saying: okay, I’ll give you a week to use the Kamisama Temple and become a Super Saiyan. |
 |
| Damn what a tense episode. Myulan finally revels herself to what had happened. It wasnt mainly her fault but it was partly. Really like how Rimuru took charge as a leader in this episode. |
 |
| First of all I must recognise Stark as the hero of the anime forums. Diligent to the last and this threads cut through all the toxic shit posting allowing us to post on the latest eps. Shit defo went down here, MC just barely escaped, and luckily he seems to have some humanity intact given the irrational destruction in front of him from people who believe in gods hes keeping his cool. Although you can see how much it pains him. Honestly if I had his fortitude I wouldn't be at my last strike. Still, as much as I love everything that happened, pacing is too slow because the cult of anime only spoilers is close on our tail, so we need some proper resolution soon to this wild conflict! Make it happen anime gods! |

| If nothing else this sounds absolutely fantastic in 7.1 with a 300w sub. |
| Damn, its becoming boring in an oddly similar fashion as has the running Log Horizon season. Season 1 was actually fun. Now it is fun like a fake smile. Welp, at least there still is a selection of anime to watch. |
| This episode was so tense I'm surprised my heart is still beating. |

denseuniversea said: Ranga best character and clayman needs some whooping. Waiting for him to get beheaded by awakened rimuru. |
|
| Again nothing happened..... everything shown was already known. how to drag out rimiru from getting the towns info/state, which he already been told by the enemy, by having his own people beat around the bush for 20min. This ep and the previous should have been merged into 1 ep. and whats this whole spiel about his rule about humans... self defense is surely not a part of that so why are they making a big deal. like.. we let them beat us up because you said to welcome them... common sense be gone.. |
| 24 minutes wondering where is Shion (i know, got spoiled already) |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| Great episode again. Rimuru pulled a clever stunt to escape Hinata. That disintegration was the real deal. Tempest is in rough shape, Myulan is lucky that Rimuru is treating her with such patience. The look in Rimuru's eyes when he saw all those dead people, damn. I totally thought he might snap but he pulled it together with Great Sage and is trying to figure out to bounce back. Falmuth and the Holy Church were straight up cruel, why does humanity always have to resort to conflict to establish their superiority? :( I'm curious, they mentioned Hakurou was recovering, Gobta is fine, Shuna is thankfully good too but there was no mention of Shion. It's like they avoided the topic altogether like how they didn't want Rimuru to see all the people that died. I hope my fears are misplaced. :( |
 |
| People getting upset that the leader of a nation didn't get mad and go into a blind rage. Who cares about remaining calm, assessing the situation, gathering information, informing allies, etc... Sigh... |
 |
| Depression level up. |
 |
| Nice to see Rimuru was actually able to keep calm despite the situation. Even I was shocked seeing all those dead bodies. |

Primeval said: It's not come out yet how Clayman was controlling Myulan,though it has been hinted at,but suffice to say,she couldn't go against him at all.Was Myulan in control of her actions? Or was she completely controlled by Clayman? Just because he can listen to her thoughts doesn't mean he has full control of her actions. Unless someone can correct me on that info. I read the spoilers as to what will happen next and I'm really not fucking satisfied of how they handled her. Damn,the emotion was intense in this episode,so sad to see the state of Rimuru city.Can't wait for the next episode,they are going to regret what they've done in a BIG way! |

I liked that people actually died, but it doesn’t look like anyone of important died despite being completely overwhelmed. Also,nobody important died? - you don't seem to realise that everyone in Rimuru City is important to Rimuru. |

They don't want to show Rimuru what happened because they know what will happen after that! They also know how sad he'd be,and then how angry he'd be. And don't compare this to Dragonball,that series took bloody seasons to start things off :) And then took seasons to explain why the previous season spent so much time explaining about the previous season before that.Christ,it got sooooo boring. |

| The pacing of this season is horrendous, 1st season was kinda slow too but not this boring. Most LN animes suffer from rushed content and lightning pacing but Slime here getting stretched and so slow it's getting annoying, every episode feels like a "nothing happens" kinda episode, it's just 5 mins content stretched for 20 mins. |

| Thank god Hakurou didn't die but are they really gonna make me wait for another week to finally know about Shion's fate? Did the author seriously kill off one of Tensura's waifus? Overall, good episode but they seriously should have developed Youm's bond with Mjurran a lot more. Not gonna lie, part of me really wanted Benimaru to massacre the shit out of him for putting his crush above the tens of innocent monsters that were killed mainly for profit. Also this: SGMJanus said: People getting upset that the leader of a nation didn't get mad and go into a blind rage. Who cares about remaining calm, assessing the situation, gathering information, informing allies, etc... Sigh... +1 Though we may be having a rage moment next episode after all. Considering the notorious lack of info regarding Shion and Gobuzo's status. |
| It was a decent episode but it feels like they took way too much time on purpose, most of the scenes were unnecessary. But anyway, i do hope to see the real wrath of Rimuru, or he will do nothing? i do hope for a small revenge... Let's see the next episode, for sure it will be interesting. |

Considering the notorious lack of info regarding Shion and Gobuzo's status. well myulan barrier was actually pretty harmless after all, its mainly focused in jamming communication signal in tempest. as stated by great sage, its the falmuth holy field thats purifying tempest denizens to death myulan barrier was in fact 'blessing in disguse' for rimuru and tempest denizens that went to valhalla |

But why are you even comparing two shows a million miles apart in terms of power ratings. its pathetic and made your entire diatribe pointless. Relax, man. I just gave my opinion about villains who could end something but decide to wait for the protagonist to get up. Dragon Ball is just a classic meme that I used to illustrate. Roch2001 said: Couldn't you of spent the time writing all that nonsense critising people doing something productive instead, like feeding homeless people at the local soup shelter or something? This is also true for you. You know, this is a forum where we give our opinions on the episodes. Upon entering here, you need to accept that there are people who think differently from you. They are feedbacks from a diverse audience, this is natural. Saying that someone should be doing something other than using the forum is like asking people to stop using it and for the forum to cease to exist. So take a deep breath and go see a fun anime. |
|
| Wow, that was such a dark episode. What happen to all the wholesomeness before? Rimuru looked like she was about to murder Mjurran after seeing all those dead bodies. If I were Mjurran, I would start running away if I saw those eyes but I guess she felt too guilty to do so. |
