Spinoff of the Slime Isekai Announces the Opening Theme; Set to Air in April

We all love our jolly and playful slime, building a whole nation from scratch, facing the adversities and afflictions along the way head-on without any fear (except for Shion’s cooking). But have you ever wondered where our overpowered MC sneaks out to every night? (Of course, besides the E.I.L.F. Paradise)

That’s right, everyone’s beloved Rimuru-sama has been writing a diary behind the scenes, jotting down his daily life experiences. When he’s not joining hands with the neighboring nations or defeating the unbowed villains without breaking any sweat, Rimuru likes to just kick back and enjoy his life in another world every once in a while.

With all those golden moments captured underneath “Dear Diary…” 8Bit will be bringing life to Rimuru’s late-night writings, in a spin-off to That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, feeding the audience with hijinks of our adored slime.

Ahead of the release of the series, The Slime Diaries, the official Twitter for the franchise has announced the opening theme and the artist working behind it.

Starting from April, the opening theme song information of the Slime Diaries will be released!

TV anime, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Diary’s, newest opening theme song: Brand new diary.

Artist: Akane Kumada

Lyrics: Takuma Terashima

Composition / Arrangement: R ・ O ・ N

Please look forward to seeing what kind of song it is!

Akane Kumada will be performing the opening theme song “Brand New Diary,” and R.O.N and Terashima have provided music and lyrics for the theme. Terashima also performed the first opening theme for Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Season 1, and even voiced Rimuru before he got reincarnated!

The Slime Diaries was originally slated for its release earlier this year in January; but Corona had to once again rain on our parade, delaying its premiere.

Despite the misfortune, The Slime Diaries is all set to air in April 2021 and will be featuring a returning cast. 

However, as a result of the delay, the fandom has been showered with almost nine months of non-stop slime content to make us forget all our worries and want to spend at least a day in Tempest.

The Slime Diaries will be sandwiched between two cours of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 2, airing alongside, and we will be able to feast on some quality slime isekai at its own good time.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to get a peek into a slime’s diary, and join Rimuru and friends as they enjoy their daily lives.
