I literally can't watch it. It's too stupid, way too naive and delusional. The whole world bands over backwards and exists for the sole reason to satisfy the MC. There are no good characters there, as every character exists only to make MC look greater/more powerful/smarter/faster/etc. Characters are shit, worldbuilding is nil, logics, economics, politics are naive and retarded, enemies or anything that can challenge MC hegemony are nonexistent.
It's such a dumb wish fulfillment issekai I just can't stand it. Why Yea Forums loves it so much?
Yeah it is, the author just invents shit as he goes. For example the situation with the orcs. Where did they come from? What country? How did they get there? Why and how no one noticed or stopped this huge army before? Why people didn't seem to give a fuck? etc. It's all just so fucking DUMB! Like it's made for 10 y.o. children.
Leo Watson
I just waited to see why people obsessed over it. But every episode got progressively shittier than the previous one.
Ethan Robinson
Because many people like dumb wish fulfilment isekai. Which the show obviously is. If you haven't noticed these things you are one of the dumbest faggots on Yea Forums.
Anthony Howard
This got animated before Mushoku Tensei
Lucas Ramirez
Not every isekai is inherently bad I wondered if it's one of the good or the shitty ones.
Jackson Collins
Because it's fun
Joseph Wood
The MC is hot
Hudson Baker
>Mushoku Tensei A little better but still shit.
Justin Rodriguez
I dropped the shit the moment they had the MC overcome a big challenge (Duel with the dwarf king) that he won but the show tried to cover it with a "don't worry it's just dumb luck he won, he's not OP" shit. As if that's gonna convince anyone with half a brain. And sure enough, in the same fucking episode they pulled out the ultimate "Japanese traditional food so good" card which gave MC's new kingdom huge advantages out of fucking nowhere.
Wyatt Baker
How did this meme get so big, let alone a full blown genre?
Jaxson Powell
>Yea Forums loves it More like everyone who thought it was mediocre began to avoid the threads. Calling it shitty wish fulfillment gets boring after a while.
Easton Hughes
Which should be incredibly obvious from the first episode.
Dylan Long
Man I'm fucking irritated. My ultimate superpower fantasy was one where I was essentially Dr. Manhattan except no warped perception of time and a slime. Slimes are the fucking coolest and this author obviously concurred but did he have to do it in such a faggot way? Almost ruined it for me.
Mushoku Tensei had an amount of character building that we've never seen before in the isekai genre. The plot became shit after Eris left, but the author really has a way of making me feel connected to the characters that no other isekai has accomplished.
Elijah Thomas
What are you trying to achieve with this post?
Charles Howard
Honestly, what could he have done better? Simply the premise of an invincible MC is boring as fuck once your power fantasy boner dies down. Slime tensei simply went down the standard moral faggotry route, but it's still better than the other direction(i.e. Overlord).
To express that I'm irritated and that Slime datta ken fucking blows. What the fuck else would I be trying to do?
Brayden Gonzalez
He's saying moral faggotry>muh edge, dumbfuck, not that
Parker Torres
he doesnt bang any of them and the closest he comes is the paladin doing a 180 on her lewdness when the situation actually comes up
shes just a fucking cock tease
Hudson Edwards
it's not nil, but it's pretty garbage worldbuilding. Good/Great worldbuilding makes the world feel 'realistic', in the sense that you could imagine this world to actually exist even though there are components that are clearly not settled in reality.
A popular and generally well received example of, imo, bad worldbuilding is The Hunger Games. (e.g. every district has a singular prominent industry that would disallow producing anything complex)
John White
Well he(you) are wrong. In what way moral faggotry>muh edge? Are you 12?
Wyatt Martin
>Why Yea Forums loves it so much? no? the japs love it. threads on Yea Forums is getting smaller and smaller with less post and frequency every time. It's just a shit show. 1st cour was fine, but 2nd cour just revealed its true color.
Juan Gomez
Lord of the rings has good worldbuilding, now in anime/manga/LNs I'd say Overlord, HxH are examples of good worldbuilding, it makes sense and you can see these worlds actually function within their set rules.
Cameron Kelly
Good, first half had it fun moments but it got worse with every episode. I hoped some fan of the series will show up and explain why he likes it.
Slime is the absolute height of wish fulfillment cheat power isekai with the single exception of note being that instead of being a publisher pleasing sexless retard he's a literal eunuch. That's it. That's all Slime differs from the rest of the nonsense genre via.
Liam Flores
I. Never. Asserted. Whether. I. Was. In. Agreement. With. Him. Or. Not. Dumbass.
Gabriel Taylor
Why is he(you) are typing like a retard, retard?
Kayden Miller
Because guess who buys merch and BDs? Pic related. Do you think pic related is most interested in a good story with their self insert facing challenges and sometimes failing at them, or just a wish-fulfillment power fantasy so they can deny reality a little bit longer?
>cherrypicking the biggest retards and fuggos for a tv show to establish a certain narrative, so the slightly less retarded and fugly can have a laugh and feel better about their miserable existence for an hour >watching tv at all WEW SASUGA! You are a special kind of dimwit.
Jaxson Gonzalez
Found the ugly.
Xavier Reyes

Adrian Butler
Those are idol otakus. Isekai fans are mostly shonen manga readers, which is teenagers.
Josiah Ramirez
Sure, there's plenty of iffy parts later on, but during the Golden Age arc in Berserk the world felt real, thriving, and it felt massive.
Isaiah Jones
Firstly, he's far from invincible. At this point of the story, any of the stronger beings can simply crush him if they wished to do so. It's just that they do not view him as a threat or an obstacle in their plans yet due to his pacifist policy.
>Slime tensei simply went down the standard moral faggotry route, but it's still better than the other direction(i.e. Overlord). He becomes Ainz around the start of season 2.
Ryder Scott
Actually, that does not seems to be the case... instead they are appearently a different group alltogether. Pic related.
>Thought its going to be a cool anime where a 37 years old guy reincarnated as a loli smile and proceed to streamroll everyone with superior IQ
>Turns out its just a shit anime in an endless cycle of "new enemy appears > oh shit he's strong unlike anything we've seen > lul joking he can't damage me also I can just eat him lul"
>Edgy "Everyone stay back let me shit talk for 10 minutes before I devour him" combats
>Half of the whole season involves him starting a domain and give names to everything which he has no particular reasons or incentive to begin with
>At mid point the author completely forgot he was supposed to be a 37 yr'old dude and just rolled with him completely being a loli
>Has no main plot for audience to keep track of wtf is going on
>Cheat and ugly fan services
The list goes on but ya, its pretty shit.
Andrew Bell
>Has no main plot for audience to keep track of wtf is going on That's just you being a brainlet who can't remember shit. Rimuru has 4 obvious objectives.
- Free Veldora - Build up Tempest and Diplomacy with other Nations (unfortunately a lot of this stuff was cut in the anime) - Save Shizu's students (completed) - Punch Demon Lord Leon Cromwell in the face
The source material is a continuous story, so there just isn't a good place to end it really unfortunately, so it's more of an adaptation problem than anything. To be fair though, that's also why this will gets a second season so fast. It's possible that the second season will show some of the content that has been skipped.
Aiden Cooper
>"I-I swear the LN is better g-guys!" as always. you people will parrot this with Mushoku Tensei as well when it turns out to be complete generic shit.
Jordan Robinson
Like said, I've fallen for the "muh LN is better" excuse too many times, it never once rang true.
Isaac Adams
user, just because he slaughters invading soldiers doesn't make him Ainz. He also never comes across any worthy opponent, so he might as well be invincible.
John Jenkins
>Idol otakus Geez, how can someone with some wish for the beauty ideal take so little care about their own appearence? Most of those fellas might be ugly but they would look much better if they actually gave a fuck. This is reality escape to its fullest.
Robert Allen
>Anime is used to promote the source material >It's inferior to the source material to promote it >REEE i fell again for the "muh LN is better"
You filthy secondaries should kill yourselves you fucking waste of oxigen.
Julian Williams
the source material was just as shit.
Gavin Perez
I mean you're not wrong, but it has a sort of weird nostalgia to it that I only recently managed to figure out the source of. It took me a while for it to hit me what it reminded me of, but in a lot of ways it's basically Anime Babar. While sure it's not a good show, that similarity makes me feel relaxed while watching literally nothing happen for 20 minutes, and sometimes that's fine. Though honestly that cartoon elephant probably still had more challenges than the slime.
Worldbuilding and writing aren't the same thing Togashi is noted hack but his world makes sense, is believable, and doesn't leave itself open to gnawing inconsistencies
Easton Ramirez
Its not exactly a new genre to send an overpowered MC into an unfamiliar setting through some contrivance.
Literally the desert. Literally because the forest was the first place the orca got to. You’re literally a speedwatcher
Gavin Evans
>green island arc Togashit tried to pander both isekaifags and tgcfags at that time and was one of the biggest clusterfuck I've seen, everyone denied it that it didn't existed lmao
Michael Flores
There's a tarkovsky styled soviet isekai movie based on that book. One day i will finish it.
Jonathan Butler
>ITT: Speed watchers and people who obviously haven't watched the show shitting on it for generic non-criticisms that don't apply to the series This was more or less what I was expecting from nu/a/.
Adrian Smith
Watch smartphone. It's even worse
Henry Allen
It's also just so... empty. The whole series just fills like fluff. Each episode ends and it's unsatisfying. At least with, I don't know, Shield Hero, each episode actually feels like something has happened and I've gotten my 20, minutes worth.
Robert Allen
Slime was good for the first like 5-6 episodes where the progression was kinda lowball but fast enough to be acceptable skipping some things.
The biggest fuck you came during the lizard kingdom where everything just up and happened cuz.
Jacob Moore
>orc lords and friends are super strong and threatening but not really, RIMURU-SAMA and his goons are far more overpowered and can end the war without lifting a finger haha Trash.
Christian Bennett
>There are no good characters there, as every character exists only to make MC look greater/more powerful/smarter/faster/etc.
I can't tell if this is bait, you didn't watch it, or you are just not very perceptive. How can you get that vibe from this show?
Carson Watson
>think they may use something like shit rimuru over estimated how much magic shit he is performing >becomes weakend for a while during the fight >nope just says fuck it lol >get tired from FUCKING NAMING PEOPLE
I was like are you fucking shitting me?
Ian Garcia
Would you believe me if I told you that this happens in the final arc of the WN as well?
Paris Hilton is so intelligent with all the pattern recognition there.
Mason Gray
>RIMURU-SAMA and his goons are far more overpowered and can end the war without lifting a finger haha Isn't this just Overlord and that other one with the loli and some sex? Why does Yea Forums love that and hate this?
John Diaz
What that thing he's eating
Adrian Jenkins
Anons are just jealous that slime got the better animation budget than Overlord.
Joshua Cruz
I liked the scene where Gabiru was personally dueling one of the Orcs and his people were cheering him on. It felt emotional. Then Rimuru's gang came and ruined it, shit episode, shit anime.
Julian Cox
>>>/reddit/
Adrian Carter
Not him but shut the fuck up, litterally being such a fag to him, hes not being too good either but your outright just acting better almost then him, chill and have a conversion instead of 'then don't watch it' and continue to just be an ass the entire time when someone wants to have a conversation, may not be too good but it's better then a waifu war or yurishit thread
I can understand them. When you are ugly and trying to be normal/cute this looks funny to everone (in comedies there is often a trope about fat ugly girl being obsessed with make up and fashion) and pretty pathetic. So you just give up all the effort all together and go even deeper into shit.
Christian Phillips
A lot of Nips who like Slime are salarymen and not those mutant wotas.
Salarymen, knowing the taste of a boot stomping on their face forever, want to be the boot in their fantasies. There's a reason two of the most ORE TUEEEEE (and most popular) modern isekai have salaryman protagonists.
Because the average Yea Forums user aka redditor nowadays is equally as pathetic as the premise of this show and can only relate to other titles in the isekai genre that shill the wish fulfillment garbage.
Does MC has tits in human form? this pic is misleading and makes it look like it has tits
Brody Ross
>The plot became shit after Eris left, That is an understatement. He loses the farm in the worst kinds of way, and honestly, I felt like he let too many of his early ideas run rampant when he had any kind of clean spot in the story to let them take off.
Aiden Rivera
Jokes on you I thought the manga is shit too, just like Mushoku Tensei. It's just that no one gave a fuck about these series here before the anime. But it is, Mushoku Tensei is shit too, didn't read the LN but saw the manga and it's exactly another generic shit. I watched it too. And it's unironically much better than slime. It's at least somewhat fun. Shit>>>Mushoku Tensei>>Smartphone>>>>>piss>>>>>Slime
Levi Bailey
No, "he" is agender in the true sense of it, a barbie doll without anything anywhere.
Matthew Fisher
Well, I can take that. That post makes sense, if you get some nice nostalgia feels from it, I can understand that.
Charles Gutierrez
So how bad is Tanya going to die?
Levi Cox
Isn't his human form pretty much turning into an older woman with breasts now in the LN?
Levi Foster
That's because there is no sense of worth or danger, no stakes. MC is never ever threatened by anything, he has no rivals and """opponents""" turn into his subordinates and best friends in one episode. The world feels empty because it is, the purpose of every living creature there is to help the MC one way or another or be a fooder to lamshade his might. The wordlbuilding is also very much shit so that's why it feels all pointless.
Eli Cox
Can you literally not tell the difference between Overlord and Slime? A quick reminder: you're not allowed to post here if you're under 18.
Levi Ramirez
it's fun
Xavier Powell
And there he is, posting a Madoka reaction pic with that post. Really?
