‘That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime’ is one of the most successful and influential series in the popular Isekai genre, which started as a light novel and spanned into a manga and anime franchise.
After the success of the Scarlet Bond anime film, fans are enthusiastic as the franchise celebrates its 10th anniversary with more announcements for the upcoming season.
Season 3 of ‘That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime’ will premiere in April 2024. The show will air for two continuous cours (a quarter of a year) for a half-year run. Crunchyroll will simulcast the series as it airs.
The trailer showcases Rimuru Tempest, Hinata Sakaguchi, Benimaru, Souei, and other characters with significant roles in the upcoming sequel. The short clip intriguingly sets up the Rimuru vs Hinata conflict, which will be the central theme of season 3.
Season 3 will feature the “Holy Demon Clash” arc after the events of season 2, in which Rimuru defeats Demon Lord Clayman.
It’s hard to say if the events in the Scarlet Bond film will impact season 3. The film’s events will likely be ignored as the story will somehow be incorporated into the broader narrative.

About That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime
That Time I Got Reincarnated as Slime is a Japanese manga series written by Fuse and illustrated by Mitz Vah. It was serialized online in 2013 but was later shifted to Micro Magazine as a light novel in 2014. It currently has 21 volumes.
The story of Tensei Shitara Slime follows the journey of Satoru Mikami after he died and reincarnated as a slime in fantasy land. A slime is a creature that reproduces the form and powers of anything that it absorbs or eats.
Satoru starts eating all the magical herbs and crystals in the cave he woke up in and stumbles upon a dragon who had been captured and couldn’t move due to a barrier. Since both of them had nothing else to do, they befriend each other. The dragon accidentally makes Satoru a named monster, and Satoru promises him that he’d find a way to break the barrier. Hence, an unknown journey begins with this unusual friendship.
