That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

This anime is absolutely gorgeous. Not only do all the sets and characters look unique and perfect, but the actual animation is very smooth and looks great. The story is interesting, as well as the characters. I don't understand how this show keeps a vibe of being so sweet and pure and innocent when there are several semi-graphic scenes where people (and other creatures) are murdered and there are a lot of sex jokes thrown in there, but it works. Before you start thinking that this show has a tonal problem, it doesn't but its a bit odd.

Yeah as of now like a season has come out and it is amazing. The characters are great. The settings are great. Everything is great. This show is flawless.

This anime really spectacular and I truly hope they continue it since its just this perfect balance of comedy, adventure, action, its light hearted, no annoying troupes, its just damn its just so damn good. I early await more and can't wait to own the full series and pick up some merch of this series.

It includes the necessary tropes you'd expect for it to fulfill its purpose - only a few annyoing clichés are included.

It's a feel-good anime with a bit o' tension and plenty of breathing room in between those moments.

The animation is par for the course and nothing really stands out - be it egregious or good.

The characters is where the real meat's at, because they're organic and believable. Their motives and and actions have sound reasoning behind them - don't expect the next Death Note from this though.

The music's alright but at the same time not really memorable.

The only qualms I have with this are the occasional spoonfeedery and the noticable quality drop towards the end as they rush past arks to quickly tidy up the story (presumably to set up the next season in the last episode with a cliffhanger).

Satoru Mikami, a 37 year old office worker's, life is cut short when he is stabbed in the street... he is then reincarnated in a fantasy world. Here he is a slime, the lowest creature alive, however he has the ability to learn the skill of any creature he devours. He befriends the powerful dragon Veldora, who has been magically sealed away and gives him the name Rimuru Tempest. When Rimuru leaves the cave he meets various beings who he gradually befriends. As the series progresses his status quickly rises, as does that of the creatures he befriends.

There are numerous anime series that feature ordinary people who for one reason or another find themselves in fantasy worlds; most are fairly interchangeable but a few have that something different that makes them stand out... this is one of the latter. The story starts well and Rimuru is a fine central character; he may be very powerful, after gaining many new skills, but he is keen to make friends and forge alliances rather than the usual more confrontational stories. That doesn't mean there is no excitement though; many enemies need to see just how strong he is before they become friends. The series also provides some good laughs and has a general feel-good quality. The animation is impressive as are the character designs. Overall a really fun anime that I'd definitely recommend to fans of the genre; I'm looking forward to season two which is due to air in 2020.

Currently my #1 anime, I can't stop smiling! Something about it is just perfect, and I'm one to get bored easily. I hope that everyone watches it, because it's just amazing.

WATCH IT!
