What is That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 3 about?
Tensura is based on the isekai fantasy light novel series of the same title (Japanese: Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken) by author Fuse and illustrator Mitz Vah, which begins with a 37-year-old salaryman named Satoru Mikami, who's stabbed by a robber and wakes up in another world. However, the hero is reincarnated as a Slime, one of the weakest Monster classes in this strange world.
The second season of the anime is based primary on the Volumes 5 and 6 of the light novel series, and Season 3 will likely cover the events of the next few volumes. In Volume 7, tensions escalate when Hinata Sakaguchi — the captain of the Crusader forces and the chief knight of the nation's Imperial Guard — sets her sights on the heroic Rimuru. Things get complicated when a priest that Rimuru sends to Lubelius is killed, but in Volume 8, which focuses mainly on a festival that's happening in Tempest.
The first two seasons of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime are now streaming on Crunchyroll. Expect the third season to be available to stream on the platform when it premieres new episodes starting in April 2024.
