TenSura (Slime Isekai) is the first anime or any tv show for that matter, made me read a text material that it is derived from. I usually hate reading as I prefer visual stimulation more or you could say I lack imagination. Anyway, after watching two seasons of this anime, I couldn't control myself from reading the next 10+ volumes of LN, which is the source material, from where the last episode of the anime had ended. I even read the WN to see the climax of the story, as it is very addicting.

The crux of the matter is that I'm addicted to escapism and this show just gives me what I want. Easy go lucky slime, who does whatever he/she wants as he has power to do so. His powers including Great Sage and Predator are so OP, that I wish I have that if I get reincarnated as well. Imagine having AI with so much knowledge about the world and unimaginable processing power with you all the time, and the skill to steal other people's skills.

But even if you are not into escapism, the show is really great considering, it has a very likeable MC out of all anime that I have watched so far. He is so likeable that you feel like, you wish you had him as your friend. The inner monologues of him and his interactions with other characters are so engaging to watch just like kumako from the anime "Kumo desu ga, Nani ka?". You'd also like the skill system of TenSura, over any other isekai or even any other anime for that matter. TenSura has an amazing world building, politics, economic etc., albeit not as complex as our world, based on what is shown. The show is not very intense like Re: Zero, but takes itself seriously unlike Parody/Comedy shows like Eminence in Shadow or Konosuba. This is one of the very few isekai, that does what it supposed to do, almost perfectly. It is very similar to Overlord, but little different because, in Overlord, Ainz is a bad guy, whereas, Rimuru (Slime) is a good guy. This season specifically, rushes through some stuff in the source material, nevertheless it's still enjoyable.

Overall, very enjoyable isekai, with very likeable MC, intriguing Skill system, amazing world building, politics, economics etc.,
