Cerulean Spectre

bloodbath between shion and shuna over rimuru lolololololol

LaLa

Benimaru getting bullied in all aspects of his life outside of battle will never not be hilarious to me! For being seen as so masculine he truly is a marshmallow off the battlefield. 🤣 - Soei being a Shadow Rizzmaster is of absolutely no surprise. It's the strong, silent, aloof persona. He always uses it to his advantage no matter what the situation, we've even witnessed Rimuru fall for it a couple times already. 😂 - It's always a relief to me that they include the maps with the world building, otherwise the geopolitical conflicts would get hella confusing very quickly in this show. - Hakuro having a wife and child shouldn't be as humorous as it plays out to be. At no point does he say, 'Oh, she's is weak and we have been separated for hundreds of years, I need to go see her!' He's incredibly chill about the entire situation and just expects his daughter to train with him and marry at 15. Only humorous fantasy storytelling can get away with shit that wild, otherwise there would be riots boycotting this media. - Rimuru just allowing his people to decide on a new tradition always makes me both giggle and be proud. It's such a crazy idea to the human mindset, but now being a monster and having an entire nation of different monster races the new tradition is so very THEM. Rimuru could have just put his foot down and told them to knock it off. Instead he recognized that monsters respect power and battle prowess, and that this would give his people a direct way to help settle matters with less drama. I'm proud he saw the need for the people to be able to make their own national culture outside of their original races. - As ridiculous as harem stories are I'm thrilled the animators acknowledged that Rimuru unintentionally has, *ahem* collected, quite a group of admirers. Them also flat out leaving in Diablo clearly stating his only interest is Rimuru is hysterically fantastic! - Wild episode for the world building portion of this season. I'm glad you two are still enjoying it! The more exciting parts are coming in soon. The festival is definitely going to bring in some interesting ideas and characters. Keep a lookout for the extra plot happening in the background because it'll sneak up on you. Can't wait for next time guys! 🩷💛🩵

Aikuchi-san

Now I will have no chance with Sir Benimaru :(

theheck

Soei got them shadow vibes haha! For real I love that they included the map when talking about it this time. Was so helpful to see the layout of the country. That is really cool Rimuru let them have their new tradition, although I'm sure they are probably going to run wild with it now. I'm loving the world building this season, it's just so fun and awesome! Wouldn't be a Tempest festival without some schemers trying to interfere I guess haha!!

But did Hakurou even know where Kaede was, or even what she was? And he definitely didn't know she had a child with him (seems he would have known it had he been more evolved, though). Anyway, I agree, it doesn't totally excuse him.

>>The Meeting with the Tengu A lot of the following are things that differ from the anime, following the light novel. I usually forget how the manga puts it. The manga can go either way, or even follow a third path. Also, the subs for this version of the episode are a bit different from the one you usually see, giving an alternative interpretation to some things. The meeting with the tengu was very important to Rimuru, and he thought it would be his toughest audience yet. >About the Tengu: How did they originate? Why are they called long-nosed? How do they relate to Rimuru’s domain? What do they mean by local gods or gods in Tensura? The reason these tengu were called long-nosed was because their ancestry as wolfmen gave them a supernatural sense of smell. But, again according to Raphael, they weren't a species. It's a group born of a single individual, much like Ranga. (I was surprised by this. Do they mean Ranga was born from his father, or he somehow produced a group, like his pack, for instance? Or are they just saying that they are simply one individual in some way?) The anime seems to be saying something slightly different, that one angel somehow spread themselves between all the individuals of the race. The tengu were not part of Rimuru's domain. They lived in the Khusha (Kusha) Mountains, on the SW border. It was more a summit than an audience. It was said the tengu had long noses, (in Japanese folklore, they do), but here it was more of a metaphor. but the girl looked like a human. According to Raphael, they were angels incarnated into the bodies of wolfmen. (Not a hybrid.) Wolfmen were a kind of beastman. In the anime, they say wolf, another thing they inexplicably changed. [Extra: >>Alternate translation notes: Alternative translations in anime: sometimes so illuminating. The word they use for the species that the angel incarnated into varies. Puppy, dog: not wolf. Also, it’s not the normal kanji that indicates dog. Alternative ways of stating how the species began: "...that spawn from angels incarnated into the bodies of wolves." "Where an angel incarnates itself into an individual that spawns packs." A reminder that plurals, like gender, are also not always expressed in Japanese. They don't have to use a formulation that definitively indicates plurality. The most common one only applies to people or animals. If they don't use these indicators, it can be taken either way, again depending on context. The point is, it can be plural angels or plural wolves. I think John was trying to say that the accent sounded like a “country” accent. I am not that knowledgeable about Japanese to be certain, but they often use an old-fashioned or maybe traditional accent for characters that are old or are especially representative of Japanese culture. Frequently it’s related to the Kyoto accent. That carries to the gods (kami) you were talking about, which I elaborate upon a little further on.] They were isolated and proud, somewhat revered as a divine presence. In Slime those referred to as gods were simply powerful beings, local or land gods, who people worshipped because they could actually help them. In a way, it's similar to Japanese gods. They contrast it to the Western Holy Church and its god. Some people in Slime mentioned to be on that level are the Oni, or Milim, or Violet to Queen Towa and her people. The tengu were worshipped as gods of the mountains. But I have gone off track a bit. Back to the tengu, apparently some extremely powerful gods created extremely powerful wolfmen, and then an angel incarnated themself in one, which created a new sentient species (They go back to using this word, despite what was just stated.) That single person was the tengu elder, the mother of the girl. Somehow she created all these children, which made her powerless, so the de facto leader of the tengu was the girl. >Back to Benimaru’s visit: Benimaru had visited them before, to get their permission to build a road between Tempest and Thalion through their lands. Previously they had permitted the High Orcs to migrate through their territory. But any suggestion that Rimuru would try to rule over the mountains would probably lead to war and Rimuru didn't want that. So when Benimaru and Albis, whom Rimuru had also sent along, returned, Benimaru had reported that they had agreed. But Benimaru was exhausted- looking, and Albis had seemed miffed. It looked like they didn't want to talk about it. But Rimuru decided to force it out of him anyway, later, over drinks, privately. The homeland of the tengu was hidden behind a “barrier” in a cave near the peak of the mountain. In the anime it was a torii gate. The warrior has 2 white wings, a tail and wolf-like ears. Of their party, only Benimaru and Albis were let in. The land seemed to be another dimension, with always-pleasant temperatures. They were taken to a woman who didn't look like any of the other tengu. She had a presence perhaps stronger than Carrion’s. Her name was Momiji, daughter of the tengu elder. She immediately wonders if they are planning to take over. Of course, Benimaru said no, they were looking for permission to cross the mountains along the border with the Forest Jura, and possibly a tunnel through the mountain. Momiji gave permission to cross the mountains as much as they would like, but asked about the tunnel. Benimaru didn't know much either, and actually they decided they didn't need the tunnel, at least for now, because, even though it would provide the shortest distance to the capital of Thalion from Capital City Rimuru, they were only going to build the road to the closest town over the border. Benimaru wanted to bring it up anyway for possible future use. Momiji said as long as Tempest didn't interfere with them, it was ok, even if they let a slime become a demon lord, and brought a “slavering half-snake” along, they wouldn't let them make a mockery of their mountains (which they considered sacred). >Fight between Albis and Momiji: Benimaru was trying not to escalate the situation but Albis spoke. It looked like there’d be a fight. Albis tried to attack with her Extra Skill Snake Eyes, but it didn't work on Momiji, because tengu, as half-spiritual life-forms, had a high resistance to status effects. Momiji also has Extra Skill Godwolf Sense, a kind of upgraded version of Magic Sense, that could detect illusions and illusory magic, so sneak attacks didn't work on her. Momiji used her fan which Albis blocked with her staff, but the second blow by Momiji sent her flying. Anyway the atmosphere was tense, while Benimaru was wondering calmly how it got to this point. So now the fight resumed, and Momiji used a killing blow. Benimaru stopped it, using his sword technique, saying he really couldn't let his companion be killed, while apologizing for her offense. Albis was upset that Benimaru thought she would lose and Momiji protested she hadn't put any force into it, but Benimaru replied that Momiji had been careless with holding her aura back. At that moment Momiji’s mother, the tengu elder, walked in and roared “You fool of a daughter!” Now Benimaru was thinking, maybe it's time to leave, but the elder said basically no problem. She said she admired his swordplay, and recognized it as the Haze technique (there is a Japanese name for this technique). Benimaru said he thought Momiji's dancing had some elements of that. So the elder, who introduced herself as Kaede, said she, too, had studied the Haze technique, and her master was Byakuya Araki (this is important info for later). Benimaru was shocked. >So Kaede told her story: About 300 years ago, she had been on a journey, hiding her powers, and was spending time in the land of the Ogres, where she encountered Byakuya, and became his apprentice. Another trained alongside her, a genius swordsman, Byakuya’s grandson. Byakuya regretted he couldn't name his grandchild. Byakuya was human, and naming a monster probably would've killed him. Kaede herself didn't yet have a name, either. Eventually Byakuya passed on. In terms of technique, his grandson completely beat her. She fell in love, and confessed under a large maple tree. They spent the night together, then she left the Ogres lands. Benimaru knew that tree, which has become a symbol of the Ogres’ homeland. Then Benimaru realized something. And was shocked. Was Hakurou Momiji's father? Kaede merely said she was surprised he was alive, and so now he has a name? Benimaru wondered if Hakurou knew. >Benimaru’s negotiation with Kaede: Kaede announced that Benimaru was going to marry her daughter, shocking (a lot of that going around) everyone. Kaede would agree to all of Benimaru’s requests and even acknowledge Rimuru's rule over their lands– provided Benimaru marries Momiji. And she wanted an immediate answer. Luckily, Momiji jumped in, saying she hadn't accepted him, even if he was stronger than her, but she didn't want to marry anyone whose love she hadn't won first. Then Momiji ran from the room. Kaede conceded that she really didn't mean to force anyone into her idea, so for now, at least, she gave them permission to build the road. But she wanted to build a relationship between Demon Lord Rimuru, and the tengu race. It was fifteen years ago that she gave birth and named Momiji. It took almost all her power, and it wouldn't be long before death came for her. That was why she wanted to find someone to support her daughter. The chance visit by Benimaru brought hope in the form of Hakurou. With this, Momiji went to meet with Rimuru. >Before the Audience, back in Tempest: Back in Tempest, Rimuru had gotten the story out of Benimaru. Benimaru had described it as scarier than the first time he met Rimuru. They kind of merged this part of the story into the audience part to save time. In the light novel, Rimuru was panicking, and he hoped it wouldn't turn into a huge issue. He knew that they would have to get Hakurou’s input. Then the night before the tengu delegation arrived, Hakurou having returned, the three of them talked it over. Rimuru thought it should be Benimaru's and Momiji's decision alone. Benimaru was saying he had his own issues and Hakurou was saying, what's the problem, don't you like my daughter? Benimaru was saying, you didn't even know you had a daughter, why are you acting as a father? Hakurou replied, well, now I do, and I have a responsibility. Hakurou seemed to be enjoying this, and it never got resolved before the audience. >The Actual Audience and the Misunderstanding: Political and strategic goals of Rimuru, the Tengu, and various neighboring nations: Rimuru tells Momiji he’s mostly a pacifist, so don't hesitate to bring any problems to him. She praised him for conquering the Forest, hoped they’d be neighbors, but didn't want any interference in tengu affairs. Shion’s eyebrow twitched a little, but she had stopped herself, even though Rimuru hadn't told her the whole story. Rimuru saw it as a recent change in her, that she no longer reacted to small things in an exaggerated manner. Hopefully she wasn't bottling it up, only to explode later. (Another one of the subtle hints sprinkled around that Shion was maturing a bit: thinking things through a little, and toning down her violent instincts.) Rimuru could tell Momiji was nervous too. She could have declared allegiance, but her race had too much pride, and it would lower her in her people's eyes, and being a young, inexperienced ruler, she would be doomed. Although it did seem she had the support of the younger warriors. (Rimuru himself struggles with this tendency.) Rimuru said, they didn't want to interfere unduly with them either. He stated that they only wanted to build a road around the base of the mountains and check to make sure the High Orcs who moved to those mountains had rights to be there. Momiji said, no problem, that they could mine the ore because they didn't need it, they only wanted to be left alone. Rimuru thought they themselves had the right to the mountainous areas. But, glad there wouldn't be a problem, Rimuru wondered, so what are they still so on edge about? He noticed they seemed prickly around Albis. Was there some fight between Carrion and the tengu? So Rimuru simply asked if there were some problem, he didn't intend to start a conflict here. Was there some reason why they might think he would? Momiji exclaimed that Tempest associates with Frey and that she didn't need any more evidence. Frey’s territory was connected to the Khusha Mountains. Since the tengu settlement was outside the Forest, it could be that Frey had tried to invade it. But why? Geld had heard that Frey likes high places. Maybe she wanted to move her capital to the highest place within access? It didn't make sense to Rimuru, since the tengu enclave was in a cave in a small space in another dimension. It didn't seem like a place Frey would want. So Rimuru asked Momiji if Frey had designs on tengu territory. Momiji was shocked they even would ask such a question, then they both realized they weren't on the same page at all. It seemed Frey wanted to capture Elmin Thalion, the capital of the Sorcerous Dynasty of Thalion, for its height. Thalion was a huge country, and Frey could not overwhelm it militarily. It enjoyed a huge advantage on the ground, but aerial forces would be more difficult to fight against. The two forces were equal tactically. But Frey didn't want to wait forever, so she turned her attention to the tengu, to bring them under her rule to beef up her resources for a later assault on Thalion. But the tengu weren't about to let that happen. Meanwhile, Thalion was hoping the other two nations would engage in conflict, to distract them and maybe make a profit off them. But Frey wasn't dumb enough to fall for that trap, so the result was a three-way standoff. This was about the time Rimuru fought Clayman, Frey and Carrion gave up their posts and decided to serve Milim. Now the tengu were more worried about the overwhelming power Milim had acquired, and the government was trying to come up with the correct posture to hold. That’s when Benimaru came along, bringing one of the Three Beastketeers. Momiji took it as subtle pressure. So Rimuru asked Geld, who's been building the new city for Milim, how Frey had been doing lately. Geld said she was extremely engaged in the planning. Geld said it seemed like she was most interested in finding where Milim had gone (Reminder: to Tempest and specifically the dungeon). But it seemed that Frey was fascinated by the city building project “skyscrapers and all”. Seems nothing could compare to the new city. Momiji was stunned to find out that the people who had been after her people, suddenly decided, nah, nm. Rimuru judged the tengu weren't very worldly, and they had been assuming they were surrounded by enemies. >Now they get to the formal agreement. As far as the tunnel they wanted to do someday, they wouldn't be able to start it until they could prove it was safe. They weren't ready to do it anyway. The whole reason the tengu had been reticent was because they thought Rimuru was preparing to invade them. They agreed to normal relations, and to help each out if needed. >Letters. >The Gossip and the Banter, and the first family law formulations of Tempest: Problems finding dates among the men of Tempest: The scene about the letters played out similarly to the LNs. Geld’s problem was that he was dedicated to his work over chasing women, but here he was lamenting that he couldn’t find someone. Rimuru thought Geld was pretty popular, not only among High Orcs women, but among other races as well, given how quiet, serious, and responsible he was. He just had to do something. A lot of people didn't seem to remember that Nanso and Hokuso are dragonewts too. So the excuse they were telling Gabiru fell short of being effective. And no, Gabiru doesn't have a human form. Soka's group and Gabiru’s group chose different evolutionary paths. They diverged. They each chose a different aspect of their racial ancestry to emulate. For the same reasons, they wanted the one that better fit their goals. Having said that, Gabiru is now talking about taking on more of a human form. I don't know how you can do that with what I just said. Maybe as he evolves he should aim to get that ability? He was admiring his dad’s human form (which I mentioned last episode was how Abiru showed up to the audience in the light novel). Rimuru is thinking, it's not about looks. Meanwhile Souei is saying it's all about doing something. Gobta chimes in that he heard the Dwarven women talking about one of Gabiru's subordinates named Gazatt, which must be that tall one of the trio, saying that he was cool. So even Gobta's saying it isn't all about looks, too. Whoa, Rimuru thinks. Souei's saying women are easier to attract than you’d think. In the anime, Shuna cut him off before he could say, “I took some Sticky Steel Thread, and–” A legendary omission from the anime. Anyway, back to Benimaru. After saying everything was going too fast and he’d like to have only one wife, he goes on: He explains that for higher-level Majin like themselves, it's not a simple task to sire a child. Some monsters have many wives and they impregnate each, who must compete with each other to give birth, but he doesn't like that idea, and he also doesn't intend to have any concubines. There are sprinklings of examples and other details here and there in the light novels that expand on this. Accordingly, Rimuru is thinking about what should be the rule in Tempest, which is that there is no reason to have polygamy here, unless they were forced to because of too many widows or something. About trying to compete and woo your choice of mate, as long as it didn't get into stalker territory, it was ok with Rimuru. Unless Benimaru didn't like it. But that guy seemed to have given up. Shuna was ok with this competition concept, too, which gave Rimuru a bad feeling. After this, both women, plus all of Benimaru's admirers, threw themselves into the fray. A new tradition in Tempest arose: if you love someone, prove it to them with your own strength.

Lol, I didn't mean that he knew the whole time. I was saying that when he found out now he had no inclination to go see his estranged wife that apparently he thought was dead. It was played very chill and funny for such serious topic. Finding out your wife is alive and that you have a child should probably register more than an, 'ah, okay cool. Time for my 15 year old daughter to train and impress my clan's prince so I can marry her off.' 😅

Hakurou is one of those who don't have Spatial Motion, and duty calls (i.e., being in Tempest for the festival). Also, his daughter is there in Tempest atm. At some point soon he does go visit. I don’t know what speed is the right speed to go about it, though.

Lenu Wolf

Wonder how many Carrions strong the next antagonist is gonna be. Maybe they’ll even be a few awakened Carrions strong the
