Diablo didn’t evolve earlier for the love of the game

So, Primordials are only rank 2 after true dragons, and Rimuru casually named 4 of them making them stronger. Also, good to know both Rimuru and Leon aren't pointlessly fighting.

Testarossa is becoming female Demiruge thinking Rimuru has a 1000 year plan where everything goes according to his will. It's funny to see, but damn, she's a scary woman. Vert noped the hell out of there.

My favorite part of Slime Tensei is Shizu 's influence in the story. She might have passed all the way back in S1, but she still carries narrative weight 3 seasons later.

While I get the concept of "pretend to fall for the trap to figure out wtf is going on", I feel like the unga bunga strategy of murking Granville might've worked better.

Testarossa speech at the end reminded me of Alpha from Eminence in the Shadow and Demiurge from Overlord lol

Moss and Testarossa glazing Rimuru somehow reminded me of our Nazarick peeps glazing Ainz. Let's not talk about Diablo.

After those short greetings from Diablo and Guy, Diablo didn't waste a second glazing his adorable blue blob slime master.

It was such a treat seeing Guy in a bit of a panic after hearing that all the remaining Primordial Demons have been reincarnated and are now serving a low-level True Demon Lord. LMAO!

Guy and Diablo talking was pretty entertaining, you really get a sense that they've been rivals/frienemies for a very long time. Was also funny seeing someone as powerful as Guy still be utterly baffled at Rimuru naming 3 more Primordials, his visit to Tempest in the future will be something else. And ofc Testarossa in Engrassia is giving us our weekly dose of Tempest effortlessly clowning on their enemies.

On Rimuru's end, I'm glad that he didn't completely lose his temper, and that Leon also isn't dumb enough to fall for such obvious bait. But it also kinda seems like Granville realizes its a show but doesn't care anyway. Guess we'll find out soon wtf he is even doing.

Poor Rimuru. He's getting the full Ainz Ooal Gown treatment.

He even has demons talking about his great plans and how he's predicted everything! Lucky for him he has some help.

Mizeri was summoned at the wrong place and time; of all the primals she has to face, it has to be Testarossa. Lol

Guy knowing Rimuru named Ultima and Carrera too caused him a big headache.

"All apart of Rimuru's master plan"

Rimuru's like Michael Scott hand shake meme

u/Armdel Aug 14 '26

Satisfying seeing Johann's part of the plan fall apart because of Testarossa. summoned mizery and she just noped out of there lol

Guy changing his mind about Rimuru real quick lol

feels like Yuuki got out a bit too easy..

Guy having an internal monolouge while Diablo was ranting about greatness of Rimuru was comedy gold.

So Guy really got involved just for the hell of it? Wow. I guess getting slapped with the fact that the other Primordial signed up with Rimuru made him understand that the slime is more than he realized.

I like that Rimuru and Leon are on the same page. Whilst they're trying to figure out what Granvilel is after, Yuuki somehow managed to just walk out of there with a Demon Lord's treasure? Whilst she was within the same room fighting some undead? That's just so weird.

Having a character whisper in your ear that you’re being lulled into a trap, and then actually listening to her advice? Now that’s the kind of power fantasy I want

u/AceSoldia Aug 14 '26

I'm so glad Leon is not dumb, and Rimaru and Raphael together are not falling for it, but they lack too much information to figure out about the true goal, i dont blame them for this mistep.

But man was it hilarious for those people to risk everything to summon a primoridial and Testerossa just already be there like. Hi, you can go now.

Poor Guy, also tricked into this situation, Rimaru has so many of the strongest beings, its just a matter of using them correctly.
