That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime Season 3 Expected Plot
Part 1 of Season 2 concludes with Rimuri’s elevation to the rank of Demon Lord and the transformation of his subjects into an immortal army, while Demon Lord Milim Nava has destroyed the Beast Kingdom Eurazania and Demon Lord Frey has killed Demon Lord Carrion. Rimuri discovers the attack may have been perpetrated by Claymen, renames the demon Noir Diablo, and sets free Veldora, who acquires a new body. The aftermath of the assault of Tempest, Veldora’s liberation, and the supposed death of Carrion are shown to viewers in Part 2. What is going to happen?
The light book series’ fifth and sixth volumes serve as the primary inspiration for the anime’s second season. The third season will most likely cover what happens in the following books. After a priest sent by Rimuri to Lubelius is slain in Volume 7, tensions rise, but they begin to defuse in Volume 8, which centers on a festival in Tempest. The renowned hero Lightspeed Masayuki participates in a battle contest as the main attraction of the festival, but this doesn’t happen until Volume 9. Whether or not that actually happens in Anime Season 3 is out in the air.
