That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime 1

Awesome manga, awesome concept, moves a bit fast story wise.. didn't expect village building-so that was a pleasant surprise! The illustrations are well done. Characters are likeable. The mood tends to swing from dark to light a lot! The main character has the ability as a slime to transform into whatever it eats.. for now. And he gains the ability to turn into something interesting and then laments the lack of functional organs. It was dark yet funny. The only thing that sucks about this manga, is its English/united states release schedule.. the English version is probably 4 volumes or 5 volumes behind what's been released in Japan if not more. So I really wish the translation to English, OFFICIAL Translation, were much faster. I wanted to buy ALL the volumes that had been released to date, but unfortunately they won't be out for months. Which is ridiculously horrible. Thankfully fans have picked up the slack of the licensee for the US release. I'll buy the future releases, when they finally do come out in English. Probably be an old man by the time the full digital English set comes out in the US with the way the release schedule is looking. P.S. IF your looking for another manga worth reading in this same genre.. check out Kumo desu ga, nani ka? Its this manga about a girl in a Japanese classroom that is reborn into another world as a spider, or a normal spider in a Japanese classroom born into another world as a-bigger spider.. . or something. I don't know exactly. But really interesting stuff!

Rimuru had a life, not normal, a lonely life, despite being appreciated by his peers it seems he made some mistakes and now he is 37 years old but alone. Suddenly he dies and he gets reincarnated. I thought it was going to be another story of the type of dungeons and orcs, I mean entertaining but with the clichés of the genre. I was wrong, it is quite good! Rimuru is now a slime, so we are stuck with his personality, and from it he grows in power and power till being master of his surroundings, getting to escape and meet adventures; sounds like a videgoame but that is not the case, I have read some authors in not Japanese literature whose work seems rather a description of a videogame in which a non dimensional character just goes from one place to another to complete a task just to end the story. In this volume instead Rimuru adventures exist because his personality, his actions are always coherent with his way to be as when he was human, and also there is coherence with the rules of the magic work; probably it helps that this manga is adaptation of a book because all looks quite developed. A great and entertaining reading. By the way, it is a bit shorter than what it seems as at the end there are several pages to advertise other mangas.

The first thing you'll notice about volume 1 of That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime is the monstrous size of the manga. The manga itself is over 200 pages long and then has a bonus light novel short story at the end. The story is a very fun take on being stuck in another world genre. Satoru Mikami through a tragic event winds up in fantasy world. Only instead of being turned into some legendary hero he ends being a slime the weakest of monsters. Though that's not to say he doesn't have some super abilities. He finds a goblin village that can't defend themselves and ends up their saviour. Can the goblins led by a slime, with his new name Rimuru Tempest, end up a proper civilization. While Rimuru does lean into a similar archetype of the genre, a few things help him stand out. Of course there is the slime angle with all the funny problems there is with being a ball of jelly. But there is also the fact that he is nearly a 40 year old man, so his life experiences help enrich him in a setting where most protagonists are teenagers. In short it's a very good start for a series. If you love the being stuck in another world genre, which trust me is an anime genre, then check out That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime.

Our blob’s story is just beginning and we’ll see where he’ll how in his new life. <b>A- (91%/Excellent)</b>

Amazing manga and anime

I bought the book because I was curious how the story would work. It has some funny moments, and the characters so far have been written really well. Since it is only the first book in the series it is sort of hard to build on them, but it provides a good introduction to a lot of them. The author also uses a lot of small decisions that serve to build the main character . The short story at the end gives a lot of insight into the actions the main character takes throughout the novel; and his surprising partners thought patterns. There are a lot of interesting plot threads that are introduced and I am curious how they will unfold.

To put it simply, it is one of my favorite stories ever. I genuinely just love the plot and main character as a whole, and the way it is portrayed in all its formats so far. Tons of comedy, tons of fun scenarios, fun interactions, and a main character that is just a thrill to watch do his thing. The main just has a fun perspective on everything, and he just feels right in every way like a real guy instead of just a walking stereotype. I am not the best at describing it, but it just seems portrayed perfectly to me.

I got onto the - "that time I got reincarnated as a slime" anime as a bit of comic relief from some heavier stuff and fell in love with it pretty quickly. So much so that I decided to buy my first ever manga and start with it. I have never even been into comics or graphic novels, never mind manga - but just couldn't wait for the anime to catch up. I'm blown away by the quality of the manga, the art, the story telling and I will be buying the whole series for sure. I can't wait to get my hands on volume 2.

L'articolo arrivato in justo tempo and in condizione perfetto. Mio nipote e molto contento. Compriamo tutto la seria.

Genial, aunque vino sin protección por lo que las esquinas estaban un poco dañadas.

Ok
