Within the isekai genre, the romance series Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime) has positioned itself since its emergence as one of the favorites of many fans, as its story captivated them, but for some, the third season of the anime that is still on the air, its development has been described as a bit slow and with very little action.
Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken's popularity has dropped this season
Although fans of Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken They were very excited about the premiere of this edition, some fans pointed out that this is because the first five chapters were full of “a lot of text” and few confrontations. However, we must remember that this is just the beginning because this season will have two consecutive arcs, which means that it will be broadcast for six months.
It's obvious that fans expect epic moments from the story and although this season includes them, the first six episodes became boring because fans noticed that the protagonist and antagonist teams only had moments where they met to talk and plan strategies throughout the episode. That's why it has been described by some as boring, however, it is a necessary part of the plot, as it is as if it were the basis of what will come later and on which the development for the next confrontations depends.
Definitely for the fans of Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Which is no surprise, since all this information is included in the light novels and they know that so many encounters are a vital part of the development of the story. Above all, it focuses on what are the thoughts that Rimuru has the situation he faces, and if it were not shown in the anime, it would be difficult to understand the decisions he will make later.
One fan wrote: “I have no problem with the encounters in the light novel or manga. I have a lot of problems with it in the anime. In the light novel it works, you can read at your own pace, which makes the experience much faster. The anime stretches the dialogue to fit 24 minutes of something you could have read in 5 minutes. The pacing is off, despite being very faithful. The context of the dialogue is not the problem, but the way it is presented.”
Fans of Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken They also said that this is where season 3 is headed and that they wouldn't mind seeing the reunions if only some of the characters had a little more movement in the scene and didn't remain static the whole time.
