EP. REVIEW: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 3

Have we heard about a looming war with the angels before?

• Please, keep trying to make me sympathize with Geld and his issues motivating his newly acquired slave labor. I insist.

I know it's supposed to be a joke about Rimuru's leadership style (and its effect on everyone else) but surely the idea of everyone just passing the dirty jobs off on their subordinates and running away is going to come back and bite them in the ass someday, right?

Then you add to that the numerous not-so-important things that get screen time as we check in with every single member of Rimuru's entourage to hear about what they've been up to. It's so much that you start to feel like you should be taking notes.

I got so lost with the constant change of subjects that I was under the impression that Geld's workers were Eurazanian refugees and volunteers, not the captured... majin was it? What were majin anyway? What do they look like? I think the hero's girlfriend was one but that there were also other options?

You would have last season but they skipped it.

• I found the road a bit more than a little confusing. Don't get me wrong, I understand what the special panels do: they absorb the magic particles in the air so that new monsters don't spawn and endanger travelers. However, we've already seen what happens to monsters when they are robbed of their connection to magic—so aren't the people of Tempest just weakening themselves?

• I didn't realize that Veldora was a ticking time bomb but, if that's an issue, what's to stop him from heading out over the ocean and releasing his power for a bit?

• I'm somewhat confused as to why Rimuru even sees Hinata as a threat. He was able to fight toe-to-toe with her in their first battle, and that was before he became a Demon Lord. Trauma, maybe?

Episode 2 has a hilarious contrast when our established villain group went about desiring world domination in the coldest, most boring and generic way possible, and we immediatly switch to Valentine and her struggles juggling propaganda, internal affairs, war, international relationships, diplomatic manipulation, strategy and a different holy war against some dudes we just learned about

If anybody's finding this a bit dry, don't worry...

If we get enough seasons, there's an entire light novel that's just spoiler[the author listing the stats, abilities and power levels of the major characters (and admitting in the epilogue that his editor advised him not to).]
