The Slime Diaries
Humor in between the more serious TV show
If you haven’t already been watching That Time I Got Reincarnated As a Slime, you might want to give it a try. This won’t be the typical review I would normally do. If I were, I may as well just write up about the main series. But it’s pretty hard to write about it considering how long the series is. Also who hasn’t written or discussed “Tensura” by this point? I’ll keep this relatively brief.
The Premise
The series appears to be amusing vignettes of things happening in the growing city Rimiru has been developing with the help of his monster allies. The episodes show activities happening in the community over the course of a year. They also include his attempts to introduce customs and ideas from his old world. As their leader, his ideas are adapted pretty quickly and make everyone happy.
General Thoughts
This is a fun series that’s only 12 episodes long. It’s a pretty amusing supplement to the main series that’s mostly humor and heartwarming. I will say that if you don’t watch the main series, this one will leave you confused. You’re meant to watch this series knowing full well who all the characters are and how the dynamics among the cast work. But if you’re a fan of the Tensura series, you shouldn’t skip this one for a lighter break from the serious stuff in the main story.
