I'm not sure I'd spend $10 on that.

Gobta goes through so much poo poo but he always levels up from it.

Just wanted to let you guys know that the latest Humble Bundle for today has Vol. 1-4 of the manga in it. https://www.humblebundle.com/books/fantasy-kodansha-comics
It's in the top tier that's $20. There's some other good stuff in the bundle too.

Let me preface by saying that I haven't read ahead so I don't know if my speculation is correct but,

I'm wondering if he leveled up by eating the orc lord guy?

(Please don't post spoilers to confirm/deny)

I mean the whole thing feels like an RPG.
For instance, there's the Predator skill that lets him absorb skills from other monsters.
There's just no UI. Except for the Alexa skill.
Even naming monsters causes their level to go up based on the level of the namer, when Rimuru names them they completely evolve into a new class even.

I think it's a lovely idea, weakening a likely more popular product to sell more of another.

I agree with you. The painful part is that this is how the anime is now, unless later on they decide to redo it into a more complete version like when they remade Fullmetal Alchemist.

the only other immediate recommendation of something similar to Slime, would be the Spider isekai which is getting an anime sooner or later and has a bunch of Light Novels and Manga already out there - https://mangadex.org/title/17709/kumo-desu-ga-nani-ka

we're almost done with the first major arc in it too

Whoa, I forgot about this one. I think there used to be a thread in here somewhere that linked to a place where they would post a chapter at a time from a LN version? It's been a few years.

I believe you're thinking of the original web novel version of Spider, which the author abandoned in the middle of what feels like the ending to rewrite the story for the light novels. Like with Slime, the LNs are a huge improvement over the WN, but if you want to read them you'll need to buy the official translations.

Yeah, I think you're right that it was the web novel one. Didn't know it got abandoned by the author though but that make sense if they can get paid for it instead.

To be fair, you have to admit that about half a year of Luffy running and yelling about Ace in every episode got old.

Hey I got to see the massacre begin with proper anime vocals and cool VFX, I drat sure can't complain.

Kind of a lot to cover in the one episode remaining from this half of the cour, but if we stay focused on Rimuru I think we should be able to fit most of it in and go into the break at a sensible point.

Wait, are they going on break again?

Is this season already over or are there more episodes? I've seen conflicting information when I try to search it.

Humble Bundle has another Kodansha bundle up with the main manga, a slime diaries one, and some spinoff about him working in an office as a slime. There are a few other series in it too.

I love that Gobta is apparently a lot stronger than he thinks he is.
