What can I say? The episode delivered. It was both funny, entertaining and had the required action. A good episode all around.

I haven't read the LN but I've read the WN and I think the WN version is pretty well written. It was translated great and had me hooked to the story and the weekly release. Again, I haven't read the LN but I think the WN is truly well written.

There are so many WN out there that I think is so truly well written that it isn't necessary to read the LN. Just to get supplementary details or bonus content but the WN will leave you pretty satisfied.

The animation was pretty good but I was still a bit disappointed. The fire spirit kinda just appeared out of nowhere for plot convenience, and Rimuru didn't seem to be taking anything seriously, making jokes after the human adventurers almost got burned to a crisp etc.

Not only a divine dragon (Veldora) but also a powerful spirit (Ifrit). Rimumu is going up strong, he's probably going to devour the demon lord too at some point. The backstory on the lasked girl is much appreciated, short and concise, but very informative.

You really need to get your eyes checked dude lmao


The action choreograph in the episode IS terrible. If you feel like going low, some bluntness is warranted.

You can't tell apart the quality because either a) you haven't watched enough action anime to know or b) you need a brain check-up because it isn't working.

you have problems in the eyes or something?


Is it that surprising to you that someone finds the action sequence awful in this episode?

Those random jumps on the wolf didn't seem unnecessary to you? Those fire shots that were aimed to miss didn't seem lame to you?

It's ok if you don't.

But here is something to learn: don't get into the habit of denouncing something you don't understand at the first opportunity. You will only be made a fool of.

You will be less excitable after watching a bit more stuffs.

The question is do you in particular enjoy the show or not everything else is pointless discussion.

Beside good animation doesn't guarantee good anime in the first place, just like violet have a great animation but pretty bland character (I still think violet is pretty good, but well decently good I guess, it just didn't resonance with me)

Not watched JoJo 5 yet or Circus so I only comment on Kamuy, but having read the manga watchable, the anime leaves MUCH to be desired and falls WAAAAY short on the heels of Slime.

Ep 8 explain it (not a spoiler relax)

Basicly her student (a summon from another world) that come from japan and basicly a hardcore gamer told her, although she doesn't play the game (dragon quest) she still find the effort that rimuru do to be funny

Damn, I wasn't expecting to see a young girl being burned to death with her pet... and poor Shizu too, how awful it must be to control fire for someone who has such horrible memories with said element.

That aside, it was a pretty enjoyable episode. The fight against Ifrit looked very well animated. Not to mention that I really liked his design, it was very cool.

It was also nice to see Verudora again, I guess Ifrit will have a hard time dealing with such powerful being.

P.S.: The "Uh" the Wise made was just hilarious xD

Good job Rimuru, you are basically a god now. Veldora will probably defeat Ifrit inside Rimuru and he can learn fire spells as well.

Play any jrpg and Ifrit is mostly one of the first therefore weaker bosses. Even as summons but look at the damage he did. Did he actually burn down the whole village? Now he's inside Rimuru lol making him even stronger. I think he's immune to elemental attacks, that's pretty op. "Short slife" hehe

But damn you, Ifrit! You destroyed meticulously modernised and almost rebuilt goblin village! >:( I hope no villager has been harmed.

I hope Rimuru won't be possessed by Ifrit. Good to know he has his own unique abilities and of course Veldora who protects everything from the inside.

This whole situation feels like badly written emotional manipulation. Don't get me wrong, entertainment in general is just a subtle way of emotionally manipulating the audience, but this feels a bit too blatant.

-Shizu's character just seems way too friendly and "normal" given the mystique the show tried to create around her. Don't get me wrong, this could be a way of subverting audience expectations, but it feels more like a way of not having to build a bridge between Rimuru and Shizu's relationship once they eventually want to get around to that. Like, it feels as if they're only making her into an outgoing kind character so that they don't have to justify why she creates a connection with the MC later on. For someone who's an unintentional danger to others, they wouldn't be this outgoing, and it's not like they don't address this. Her character design has a mask (which one might argue is just so Ifrit won't be a danger to people, but even then she takes it off constantly and it didn't even work, it's clearly also to add mystery to her), she wants to leave early to not be a danger to others. But it's like they want to have their cake and eat it too... because it doesn't really affect her character's mentality.

-The edginess is just way too blatant. Of course her child friend died for the dumbest reason. Of course she just randomly activates Ifrit as she's about to leave.

-The fact that her summoner thought she would have an affinity for fire just because she had burns is lol??!?!?!?!?!?!

-How did nobody realize that she was THAT Shizu when she mentioned that she was very old AND it's established that Japanese names are not a commonality in the world.

-I want to say that it's very funny that Ifrit activated when that leader guy made a slightly sexist remark, I wonder if that will be addressed at all? Would be kind of hilarious if Ifrit activated because the dude was just a little rude, that would make the situation seem more self aware. In general Shizu's character does not seem to be written with self-awareness in mind.

-I DO think it was really cool how Rimuru showed Shizu modern japan in the last episode. Sweet moment and a great concept. Wonder how Shizu understood a modern Japanese game reference if she was already dead in WW2. That implies that someone she knows in the world they're currently in is also not only Japanese, but a rather modern Japanese person (meaning most likely not her master).

The sad thing is despite all these problems, I still enjoyed the episode. Really good animation and was exciting, even if it was frustrating how there seemed to be no consequences (Was there seriously no Goblins in the village???)

that was fucking good. More backstory on Shizu which was hella interesting, her summoner(??) or master or whatever being referred to as as "Demon Lord" sure was a phrase, and he sure as hella acts like one. Cold type that likes to flex his abilities that are all somehow dark and edgy like his personality, but ultimately gets yeeted. Curious to who that girl was before she got incinerated by Shizu/Ifrit? Another summoned? Either way ,Shizu said she was on a mission to find said summoner maybe to kill them to break the curse, idk if it works like that but hay, Rimuru managed to completely out do a legendary spirit that would control her.
Fight scene overall was cool, if anything it'll just make me remember to never doubt the smaller monsters in games. Who knows, that lvl 12 beaver over there, could actually have 50 different skills to render me immobile and 100 other skills to kill me instantly. scary shit.
Ending was fucking gold. God i can't imagine the feeling of being a high ranking fire spirit, enough to gain the title of legendary, have a kill count in the hundred thousands and then get fucking outplayed and EATEN by a slime. Nonono it doesn't stop there, after it slowly settles in that you suffered a humiliating defeat you also realise that also inside said slime, is the fucking catastrophe-classed Dragon Storm Veldora. Talk about a bad day.

Shizu backstory are really tragic and it continue to the present episode, but finally Rimuru freeing Shizu from the curse (Ifrit).

Rimuru, The adventures groups, and Ranga fighting Ifrit with really great fighting animation from 8bit.

Kinda funny Rimuru forget about him/her skill, even make the mage annoyed.

This episode really focused on Action rather than Slice Of Life. Really good result for me to see this many action episode.

I feel bad for Ifrit that went unexpecting situations. Its hard, even with the beautiful name like conqueror, he was nothing against slime. Lol. Yeah, that shiny slime preying that fire spirit, easily, without any problem. Nice shit. But its deserved cause what happened to the girl and the fox from the first sequence. Rip.

Okay, lets see next what happened to Ifrit at Rimuru's body after whatever shit happening before. Could the robotic sage analyze him and started to mimic the conqueror of the flames? Okay, its must be good. Lol.

Ah, about Shizue, some peoples already said her fate. Such a shame, why i am reading that comment. Lets see the truth ...
