| Wait, what? I thought they were destined to be together! I mean, they are one now, so it's almost the same thing, I wasn't prepared for this. Can he resummon her later? I mean, she appears in some parts of the opening theme song, so probably, the same goes for Veldora. Looks like trouble is making its way to them, although, with how powerful Rimuuru is, and how powerful his followers are, I guess they can easily handle that boar. By the way, Rimuru's body looks great, the amazing color scheme as well. |
Briandias said: When making an anime adaptation it's normal to have something left out, eventhough this ep could explain more about shizu situation, they decided not to. Yes, and I normally complain that adaptation purposefully leaves out information critical to understanding the plot, but in this case, I don't think it really matters that much. Briandias said: Ps: dude stop spoiling it, it will be explained in the next ep, even the manga explain it in the next chapter lol 😅 I don't think it will be touched the next episode, they seems to be done with the arc, next episode should be new arc introducing new characters... There has been other spoilers in this thread, and I don't think I spoiled that much. Anyway, anyone can read the manga. Perhaps, even should. It doesn't require that much of the effort as reading through the light novel would be. |
| Signature removed. It was too good for this cruel world. |
Briandias said: alshu said: Got hyped by the previous episode but got really bored by this one...drop. I was forcing myself to follow this show with the hope that more epic stuff is coming. Too much melodrama for supposedly adventure title. Try goblin slayer it's epic if nothing else Lol So everybody is shitting on Goblin Slayer because it's too epic? |
Briandias said: alshu said: So everybody is shitting on Goblin Slayer because it's too epic? Well it's epic 👍 It's a deal than! I will never touch anything you call epic. |
Briandias said: Lol, sadly GS is just not my cup of tea, I have enough stimulant anime this year, i need a slow anime that build it's character (well basicly slime) 1. Why mentioning Goblin Slayer at all? If commenters are to be believed it's a dark but very shallow and cheaply made show. I have skipped it on synopsis base even before people started to complain about it. 2. I was (wrongly) expecting something else from Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken like more action, adventures, exploring more exotic locations but got standard RPG stuff and lots of drama. This show is not for me. If you like it, if it suits your mood this is great and I am happy for you! How disliking (and it's a strong word actually decent show but not interesting for me) Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken makes me automatically a Goblin Slayer fan? |
| Really an episode that satisfies me fully. After this change of course, I think, albeit slightly, that something good can come out of this anime series. A little I got excited and saddened by the end of Shizu. The episode finale is very intriguing. |
 |
| Even though this episode established an important plot point, I have to say that this episode is too boring for me to handle. 3/5 |
| so, the first 8 ep of this series is only the prologue or base of the series. bye veldora & shizu. im afraid if this will go downhill and lost its good part and the atmosphere of the prologue. |

DonTrumpolino said: Sooo, did we reach the point now where it becomes a dramedy and he gets all those fangirls that have all that fanservice potential, but eventually succumb the melodrama, so he has to "devour" them, which gives him the ability to transform into them, thus making himself his own harem or basically Pimp Ditto?!? No he's a cultured slime. He's really faithful to his fallen waifu |

No he's a cultured slime. He's really faithful to his fallen waifu Actually the whole "destined one" crystal ball forunte telling scene was added by the manga. It existed in neither the WN nor the LN. |
 |
| For a watcher who was aware of this arc this was sloooow. Not bad per se, but long anyhow. Still decent |
| And Majin Buu absorbed one more person. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Eating your "destined one" isn't something we see that often In that matter, this anime truly is special |
 |
| Oh.. It's been some time since an anime made me cry. |
 |
| How did the girl die? was it from old age? why did her body suddenly age? What was stopping her from aging? what am I missing here? |
| Shizue ;_; Also interesting, Rimuru has also been given the mission to open a path between worlds, could mean working towards his own redemption too. |
 |
| Can't believe Shizue is gone, I liked her a lot and wanted her to be around more. I thought her final moments (and most of the eps so far) had just the right pacing for me though. Moving forward I am excited to see more of Rimuru's human form. |
ibraheem234 said: wait wasn't shizu her destined partner or something but she just died Well, I asked the same question. through watching the OP I thought she's his partner along the series. |

| It's so touching story really ... My eyes is wet and more when we remember that this is what they mean when they said that Shizu is destined to be his "lifetime partner" ... |
"The Slave is the have-not, the oppressed one with nothing to spare. But because the Slave is in that despairing situation, having nothing, it can kill the Emperor !" |
| I just wanted to watch 2 or 3 episodes to see if it was good. Watched 8 in a row... And it's pretty good. Feel bad for Shizu and hope Rimuru avenges her. |
| Oh, it was such a great episode. Very emotional but heartwarming in the end with Shizue being happy with her mother for the rest of eternity. |
| Slime is now part of my harem of executive dudes in loli bodies. Rimuru and Tanya. |
| Wow what a great episode. I must admit I was dreading the whole Shizu story at first. When the fortune teller said she was gonna be his destined one I expected a generic wish fulfillment love story. Then she shows up and the story proceeds as I thought it would up until this episode. I was not expecting this at all. Damn that was depressing, I actually now wish it had been the wish fulfilled love story I had expected. I can't stop watching Shizu's death scene. Her whole speech after she ask to be eaten is so painful yet incredible beautiful at the same time. I honestly have no clue how the dialogue is as good as it is, it just is. Really, one of the best episodes I've seen in a while. Simply stunning. My only grievance with the anime is that they revealed Rimuru's human form in the opening. Would've been better to save it up for later. Oh well but either way this is easily the best anime of the season. I'm regretting putting it off until now. |
| Yeah... this is what I felt when I first saw Shizu's face 2 episodes ago, how it reminded me of Rimuru's human form from the OP. Then by the end of that episode it dawned on me that she might be the very reason he looks like that. Not seeing her among the main team in the OP and ED, and the different scenes during the ED made me realize that she might die soon and be absorbed. I feel so sad for her, I wish she could have stayed alive and go on the journeys with Rimuru :( But I guess it's sort of a happy ending for her. That said, the "eat me, Rimuru" scene was pretty weird :'D Though I understood the meaning. I like Rimuru's human form, he looks cool, although it's a bit awkward how feminine he is now. Kinda wish the OP/ED didn't spoil it from the very beginning, but it was okay this way as well. I'm amused by the discussions about whether it's okay to lewd him, and how to do so :'D I hope we can see those three guildmates later. They were fun. |
 |
| Thought something like this would happen, but damn that one bittersweet backstory and ending! Really lovely and we're only the 8th episode in! Really looking forward to see what's next! |
 |
| Holy shit so that's how Rimuru got his human form. That's sad af. But why as a little kid though? Anyway, I wonder how the leader of the country that sent those 3 adventurers would react when he hears about Rimuru. |
 |
| Aww, Rimuru's new human form is so adorable :} I didn't think the oracle meant "destined" as in romance. Totally called it. Lolol. That's too bad, though. Oh well. Those 3 adventurers are silly lol. Got way too emotional for the short amt of time they spent with Shizu, dafuq? xD I hope they're much stronger if they appear again in the future. Cool new equipment and stuffs doe Sleep well, Shizu-chan. |
| Awwh Shizu left too soon :( but at least now we know why Rimuru looks exactly like her. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| RIP Shizu. At least she found peace in the end, being freed from Ifrit. She handed on her last will to Rimuru who was allowed to devour her. Rimuru in human form looks alright, but I prefer him as Slime-sama. ;D Now we know why he looked like Shizu so much in the opening. It's awesome to see the village being rebuilt so fast after Ifrit's rampage. I'm worried about the future of it, though. Let's be honest: those adventurers will give their reports about Rimuru and prospering village having the finest artisans who gave them such a fine equipment. I hope there won't be any war to conquer both the forest and the village. :S Plus that ending didn't look positive for all beings who lived peacefully in this forest. |
