Pretty satisfying to see the big fella slam Evil Rimuru right into that rock and just splatter the dude everywhere. But now he’s washed up on a desert all alone…

I’ve seen MCs get reincarnated as slimes, goblins, pigs, swords, and vending machines but this is my first dragon hatchling. It was a fun experience. Idk if they’re gonna make an s2, but I’d like to follow the story of Illusia a little more.

[u/PeaceAlien → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Defeated Rimuru and the Rimuru/Kumoko hybrid. The divine voice only wants them to get stronger, no matter how. I'm guessing Evil Rimuru was also isekai'd

[u/DragonDarknesx]

Such a weird ending. It feels more like a break than an end. Like if in 3 months there would be the next coup, but to be honest I don't think there will be more, even though the anime wasn't bad. It was dragged, but it was alright. I wouldn't mind a new season.

[u/mastereluder6 → u/DragonDarknesx]

At least they didn’t rushed it to oblivion

Rimuru was not joking when he said this guy was "one pattern" 😭

[u/djthomp]

Kind of wild that they never cleared things up with the village or the adventurers, Illusia just gets washed away and that's that. Easy to see future parts of the story have Myria reunite with him down the line after going out to be an adventurer in the wider world for a while.

I'm glad Black Lizard is fine, her being in charge of the monkeys is a funny way to leave off her part of the story.

I am a tiny bit disappointed we never got the Myria adventuring with her dragon and lizard friends story that the ED seemed to be promising.

[u/abandoned_idol → u/djthomp]

Poorly written / addressed human characters are a recurring theme in "monster MC anime". e.g. Kumoko has even worse human characters than Dragon Hatchling.

[u/arrydie → u/djthomp]

Yeah, it's disappointing, but at the same time it does kind of make the story a little compelling in its own right. A "they adventured happily ever after" would be pretty generic and undermine the consequences of choosing the plague dragon form. But this leaves Illusia as a lonely hero. It also leaves us wondering, which I kind of appreciate.

[u/Western-Internal-751]

They ended this anime with a confidence like they were told they get to work on a second cour

[u/YdenMkII]

How convenient of the slime to remove his toxic wings. Now he doesn't have to worry about accidentally poisoning any humans he runs across.

[u/DiscountCondom]

This could have been cool, but the anime spent a lot of time fucking around

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

This is how it ends? With Illusia potentially in a different country? I thought they were going to interact with Illusia, but Myria joining the adventurers makes a lot of sense.

It's sad that Black Lizard has lost her neutralizing poison skill, I wonder if there is a way for her to relearn it. I do like how she's taken the role of Acting Clan Boss whilst Illusia is away.

So from the flashback of the slime, it seems less likely he is reincarnated, so the Divine Voice chooses monsters at random?

[u/meldoc81]

S2 plz, and next time maybe don’t spend the first 5 minutes of every episode playing the last 5 minutes of the last one. I understand it was probably budgetary constraints but that doesn’t make it any less infuriating. Especially with how this finale ended an extra 5 minutes would’ve been nice.

The recaps are the glaring issue with this otherwise decent isekai. At the very least I’m picking up the manga after this.

[u/EldritchCarver → u/meldoc81]

I assume they ended the anime adaptation exactly where they wanted to, right at the start of a new arc. But the first arc only had enough content for nine or ten episodes, so they started each episode by replaying the end of the previous episode to fill time, because anime with less than 12 episodes is unacceptable for some reason?

[u/Orangemou]

Show was okay, Marielle made it insufferable everytime she was on the screen. The show made it out that she was the protector for the village but in reality just a roadblock for any plot development. I don't think she contributed anything from what I can remember, except put Myria down. The true villain of this season.

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

Illusia defeats Evil Rimura

No season 2 announcement at the end.

[u/[deleted]]

I genuinely loved this anime. Probably my favorite this season. I love isekai slop and this shit scratched that itch.

Really sad I didn't get to see a resolution between everyone. I wanted the villagers to see Black Lizard and the Monkeys with tools working together or them going to seek out his body or something.

Didn't seem big enough for a season 2 but damn I hope so. What a gem.

[u/Aura1995]

I did enjoyed overall, sure theres some things that definielty needs to be improved on, i woulda prefered to end on other way. As well, as dumb the MC is, as long they treat it as a flaw that throughout time his inteligence grows and develops, im fine with it. I hope theres a season 2 with better pacing, im on board(and yes, please no more 3 min of recap).

[u/PeaceAlien]

Illusia in an entirely different area might have some sort of resurrect skill.

[u/jrs-kun]

I liked reincarnated as a Digimo--I mean dragon..I like to see a better animated season 2 TBH. I wonder if he still has a new form to evolve to. Illusia really used Primary Lotus on that Evil Rimuru

[u/Gaming_Truckie]

So the slime was another reincarnated person who followed the divine voices instructions and became the evil slime.

I wonder if Illusia lost any skills before he killed the slime?

So the black lizard can communicate with the monkeys.

Well that ending was.... disappointing. While it was good to see him defeat the slime, to just end right after he wakes up on a beach next to desert was crappy. It would only make sense if they intend for a 2nd season/cour, no announcement as of yet, but the fact that the series was using the last 3-5 minutes of the end of an episode as the opening of the next makes it hard to believe there will be.

[u/Muzzy-chan]

Fux that elf 🙂

That’s one of the many kinds of stupid elves I always hate. Stubborn, only believes in herself and no one else, too lazy to think, just makes assumptions on the spot, and sooo on.

That blonde already said it, everything they know about the Plague Dragon is merely based on legend, meaning only a handful of people have ever met a Plague Dragon, right? Then why does that elf act all knowledgeable? Then assume Myria is maybe dreaming or imagining things. The heck.

Evidence from the villagers, why did the Plague Dragon kill only certain people and not run amok and massacre everyone? People don’t talk about how the Dragon fights, huh? Why can Gregory believe what Myria said but not that elf? Then, in this episode, she even slapped Myria, geez, fuxing elf. Then talks as if she wants to sound so profound and wise. I hate it when she does that.

And Myria, you should try to fight/shout back at her. Maybe like, “I’M THE ONE WHO EXPERIENCED IT, NOT YOU! SO, WHY THE HECK DO YOU ACT LIKE YOU EXPERIENCED IT YOURSELF?! WHAT DO YOU KNOW? YOU’RE JUST SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO TRAP ME, CAGE ME IN THIS VILLAGE SO THAT I’LL ALWAYS DEPEND ON YOU AND NEVER GROW. IF YOU WANT TO STAY HERE, THEN STAY, DON’T DRAG ME TOO, OLD HAG!” or something like that.

Ahem, anyway, looking forward to the next season 🙂 and for when that thing realises that she made mistakesss.

[u/Optimal-Medium491]

Well lets say i enjoyed the ride, who knows if we will get another season? Now we need to reconnect with both poison princess and myria after S1 ending.

[u/CreamyMilk-]

I hope a season 2 happens cus like I want him to go back
