HE THINKS HE CAN BEAT THE GUY?! Tensura (Slime Tensei) Season 3 Episode 24 Reaction! (UNCUT VERSION)

Yeah I am unsure where the main income of the Tensura series comes from, but I do know it is the highest selling Light Novel of all time so surely they have plenty of money for adaptations! I believe the movie is going to be another anime only plotline as they wait for the manga to finish adapting a few more LN volumes. Overall, I loved this season of Slime. I have complaints that I have been vocal about regarding important information that they omitted, and I think they could have presented the information a bit better in the first half of the season to make it more entertaining and digestible for anime only audiences, but this was a faithful adaptation of a very fun arc in my opinion and I cannot wait for the plotlines that they set up in this arc to develop in the future! Season 4 is going to be fantastic! The song during the end credits is the same song as the one during the opening in the first half of this season. Tbh I am not sure why they made this choice or if it means something greater? Okay I see how this is not super well explained in the anime, so the Western Nations that came together to form the Council of the West are just a group of a lot of human nations to the west of the Jura forest. Falmenas (Falmuth) and Blumund are a part of this group. Demon Lord Dagruel rules an area called the 'Barren Lands' which is even more West than the Western Nations, on the far edge of the continent. Lubelius and some of the Western Nations line the Eastern border of Dagruel's territory and they work together to stop the advance of the Demon Lord's forces there. Coleus is one of these border nations as well, we saw an explanation alluding to this during those three OVA episodes.

Duke Meuse had ties to the Rozzo family. They had promised him a position among the Five Elders if he succeeded. When Rimuru rejected the merchants, Mjollmile, after Rimuru left, promised to intervene with him on the merchants behalf after they begged. Thus turning their entire strategy back upon them. This is what Mjollmile was talking about at the beginning of the Gazebo Meeting 2.0. The other major thing was that the participants of the second meeting were carefully chosen. It only included those who knew about Rimuru’s connection with Shizu. Yes, there were a lot of meetings, but one type of meeting content they skipped on was more about the Rozzo's, Mariabel, Grenville, and their plans, Yuuki's connections and their plans, and I complained about how they didn't tell the audience as much about these things, as they did in the LN, or even the manga. They threw out some terms, and vague hints, that were hard to put together unless you had more knowledge to notice what they meant. Notice they had tried Granville's way first, to draw Tempest into their sphere of influence, rather than destroy Tempest. This failed. Anything I say about Yuuki would reveal too much. But I do want to point out that any important conversation that Yuuki participates in is always a bit cryptic. It's because he's so intelligent that he conveys a large amount of information in a few words, and he makes huge leaps of understanding that not everyone can always follow. Kagali, Damrada, and to a lesser extent Laplace can usually participate in these conversations, among his closer confidants. Rimuru doesn't frequently engage in these kinds of communications with him, but he has his own strengths when he does. Usually. The reader usually has to think harder about what is going on at these times, than with other characters. There are a few others. They do state several times much earlier in the LN’s that he is a genius. Meetings serve a couple of purposes. Even reading the LN, you notice there are a lot of meetings. In politics and economics and diplomacy, you need meetings. You also have private meetings. The purposes include, to exchange information, work out solutions, to brainstorm, to put input from different sources together, to see the big picture, to bond with people, to elucidate the themes and Rimuru's goals, to make plans, to make lore drops or big reveals, to recognize various people's achievements, to get on the same page, to discuss strategy, to plan battles, to give encouragement, to create solidarity. In any organization it's possible to do without meetings, and meetings can be a waste of time, boring, contentious, a place for dominance games and grandstanding, but you miss out on a lot of benefits if you avoid them. Rimuru avoids a lot of the pitfalls by having a healthy group mindset and by being a good leader, down to knowing how to run a meeting. Meetings also provide the opportunity in a story to show character interactions and humor. In looking at several people's assessments of the season on the first day after Episode 24 was aired, there are a sizable number of people, even among those who love the story, that the adaptation was not very good. I think it was good. Not perfect, but all the main ideas were conveyed. Someone said 8bit did a poor job of the animation. I think they do quite a good job, even if some scenes, especially battle scenes, were not top-tier. At least they are consistently mid-high to very good. A lot of people seemed to be asking for content that simply wasn't even there in the LN. I have a harder time with manga content. I’ve read it, but I can't always tell if manga-but-not-LN anime viewers were expecting something more exciting. In general, the story is the story, even if there are differences, but it seemed sometimes that there were LN readers who wanted something different from what was in the LN. For instance, wanting the dungeon opening or the tournament to be an entirely different thing. As if they wanted the focus off of Masayuki (but it was really all about him, and Gobta second), and as if they wanted the focus to be on the labyrinth rather than how well it was being promoted, and Rimuru's thoughts about the whole thing. But that's where the focus was supposed to be. That's generally why I think Season 3 was a good adaptation. The meaning was what it was supposed to be. I think people would have complained a lot more if the concept was completely changed. The anime, imo, is true to its original intent.

I was going to explain about the Council of the West too but you beat me to it. Other nations in the Council are Engrassia, Ghastone, the country where the Rozzo's are based, Saltrozzo, Ballachia, where the criminal organization Orthrus had been located. If the Rozzo's run the Western Nations, and the Council is the governing body, the church supports the people and defends against monsters, and the Guild also defend against monsters and other attacks, you can see that there are connections between them, without going into detail.

I like your statement of "the story is the story." Frankly it is crazy to me that some people were complaining about the story itself and what it was focusing on and wanting it to change. It really makes me question their understanding of the source material, if they have even read it. This season was faithful to the LN and that is a VERY good thing for the story considering its excellence and retail success. I also would like to add that, as someone who has already rewatched the first half of the season, the meetings are not nearly as drawn out or monotonous as they seemed upon release. Being able to watch the episodes without waiting a week in between makes them SO MUCH better. The connections between discussions and importance of the new information is much easier to see when viewing back to back as well. It is the difference between having 'two hours of meetings' and 'six weeks of meetings.' This season is astronomically better when binged vs watching on release IMO and it makes me think the writers intended it to be that way with future audiences in mind.

I obviously wouldn't expect a reaction to it, but I would highly recommend binging to rewatch the season if you are able to, Zach. The first half of the season in particular is way better when viewed back to back compared to waiting a week between the meeting episodes. If you remember, Season 2 part 2 was the exact same way with about 6 episodes of pure meetings, but you notice it much less when binging. It is the same with this season!

Thanks for that viewpoint. Doesn't mean I won't watch next season as it releases because I can't wait! So you saw that too? About the tournament and the labyrinth? I have to admit that my complete concentration on the concurrent light novels did make me see things I probably would not have remembered about the story if I had read it only a couple of years ago.

The family tree of such long lived races is always so difficult to picture lol especially with how young they look even when they are hundreds or thousands of years old

Daniel Meissner
>>150740007

do you buy them in Japanese just as like a collection thing? Because most of them are translated into English you know

Daniel Meissner
>>150729273

I don't know if I have seen the same complaints as you have, but I have seen a lot that are simply nonsensical. Apparently lots of anime watchers can only focus on battles, it is a shame really

I prefer buying directly from the source, feels better. that s the way to do it imho. you pay directly whenever possible. buying translated versions doesnt sit well with me.

Forgive me, I do not really know how to explain this without sounding like I am patronizing you, just know I do not mean offense. You know Erald is Elmesia's uncle. At this point in the story, we do not know who exactly Elmesia's parents are, but we know Erald is her father's brother. We also obviously know that Erald is Eren's father. The child of your uncle is your cousin. They are close on the family tree, but Eren is not Elmesia's descendant

Ah got cha. I know, tis alright buddy. Atp I am co vinced you may be a fellow autistic person ( sorry if not ) and You dont have to worry about that. You never been rude to me, you worded rhat perfectly fine. Also, what the hell I hoped we know more atp ahahahahaha

I hate to disrupt your fantasy a little bit, but unfortunately no, Elmesia does not have any children. She is not a grandmother, but she is thousands of years old so I suppose she could still be considered a GILF lol Elmesia is a High Elf, so she basically has an unlimited lifespan (unless she is killed in an unnatural way) and those with an endless life naturally do not feel much of a need to reproduce. I suppose that is why a thousands year old Empress has no need or desire to produce an heir! Also, I am not autistic lol but no worries no offense taken! I am just passionate about Tensura! I also don't really know how people may take comments I make over the internet even if I do not mean any harm. Especially if I am correcting someone, so I did not want you to feel like I was belittling your knowledge of the series I suppose. Side note: in the light novels, we DO know more about Elmesia's family tree. I just did not want to spoil anything because it is rather significant. This season only just finished with Vol 9 and currently there are 21 volumes released hahaha so the anime is super far behind. So there is a LOT more info to come!
