The franchise has recently achieved immense success in Japan with the release of its first movie, Scarlet Bond. To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the series, a series of events will be held, details of which were shared on the official site and social media channels.

Season 3 Of Reincarnated As A Slime Is Coming In Spring 2024

That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime has become one of the most influential and successful series in the popular Isekai genre. Originally a light novel, it has expanded into a manga and anime franchise. The story follows Mikami Satoru, a Japanese corporate worker who is randomly stabbed and dies, only to be reborn in a fantasy world. However, instead of being reborn as a powerful warrior, Satoru becomes the lowest creature, a slime. Using his human cunning and natural abilities, he takes on the name Rimuru Tempest and rises to become one of the most powerful monsters in the world, a Demon Lord. He creates the kingdom of Tempest, where monsters and different races can coexist harmoniously.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Reincarnated As A Slime, there will be several exciting initiatives. The series' creator, Fuse, will write a brand new short story, which will be accompanied by a manga adaptation by Yuzo Takada, the author of the classic series 3X3 Eyes. The manga will be serialized in Monthly Shonen Sirius. In addition, a new three-part OVA will be released in Fall 2023, adapting the side story called Coleus' Dream. Furthermore, a stage play adaptation has been announced, with performances starting in August 2023. However, fans are most eagerly anticipating the third season of the anime, which will focus on Rimuru's battle with Hinata Sakaguchi, one of his strongest opponents since becoming a Demon Lord. It is expected to adapt the seventh volume of the light novel series, titled Saint-Monster Confrontation.

Where Season 2 of Reincarnated As A Slime Left Off

Season 2 of That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime concluded with Rimuru attending the Demon Lords' meeting, also known as Walpurgis. During this time, Rimuru encountered conflict with the persistent Demon Lord Clayman, who had been targeting him for a while. Clayman attempted to manipulate another Demon Lord, Milim, into fighting against Rimuru, but Milim's fondness for Rimuru prevailed. Clayman achieved a higher level of power through an awakening, leading to a direct clash between him and Rimuru, resulting in Rimuru emerging victorious.

The events in the Scarlet Bond film diverged from the original light novels and manga, making it uncertain whether it will impact season 3. It is equally possible that the film's events will be disregarded or somehow integrated into the wider storyline. Any potential influence may revolve around Hiiro, as he is connected to the other Kijin survivors residing in Tempest. This could necessitate a minor adjustment to incorporate Hiiro's involvement.

Reincarnated As A Slime's Season 3 Will Showcase Rimuru's Hardest Battle

The success of That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime has paved the way for the popular Isekai genre. Now, after ten years, the franchise continues to thrive and shows no signs of slowing down. With the recent release of Scarlet Bond, the upcoming 10th anniversary celebrations, and the confirmation of a third anime season, being a fan of Rimuru and following his adventures in That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime couldn't be more exciting.

Seasons 1 and 2 of That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime are available on Crunchyroll.
