The final episode of the anime “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 3” (hereafter “Tensei Slime”) has been airing since September 27th. When Momiji (CV: Kahara Moe) blushes as she approaches her crush Benimaru (CV: Furukawa Makoto), excited reactions such as “She’s really smitten with Benimaru lol” and “She’s so cute” were heard one after another.

The anime is based on a popular comic series (manga: Taiki Kawakami, original story: Fuse, character design: Mitz Vah) based on the web novel of the same name, which has sold over 45 million copies in total. It is a “reincarnation entertainment” in which the protagonist Rimuru Tempest (CV: Miho Okazaki), who is reincarnated as a slime, uses his skills and increases his number of companions with his wisdom and courage. The first movie in the series was released in 2022 and was a hit, grossing 1.4 billion yen.
In the last episode, episode 71, A-rank adventurer Guy (voiced by Mineta Taimu) broke the rules in the dungeon. The dungeon’s administrator, Dryad (voiced by Sato Haruka), tied Guy up with ivy and said, “I will now carry out your sentence.” When Guy showed no signs of remorse, saying, “Damn it! Do you think you’ve beaten me with this?”, Dryad cut off his head. Online, people were shocked by Dryad’s merciless punishment, saying, “That’s quite a penalty!”, “The pain of death is real,” and “His head fell off!”
In the final episode, episode 72, “After the Festival”, Rimuru expressed his enthusiasm for digging a tunnel into the mountain where the Tengu tribe live. Momiji, a girl from the Tengu tribe, accepted his suggestion and made it a condition that Benimaru, a member of the Ogre tribe, be put in charge of the construction. Upon hearing that Benimaru would be coming to inspect the project, Momiji blushed with joy and said, “That’s fine. If you stop by our village on that occasion…”
Momiji tries to get closer to Benimaru using the construction work as an excuse, and the internet was abuzz with comments such as “She’s so cute,” “She’s really smitten with Benimaru lol,” and “I guess she’s after Benimaru after all lol.”
Although the third season of the TV anime has aired its final episode, it has already been announced that a fourth season and a second movie will be produced, with fans overjoyed, saying, “This is the biggest news of the year!!!” and “I’m so excited!”
