That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime 3 by Fuse

That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime 3 (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, #3)

by Fuse

Mikami's middle age hasn't gone as he planned: He never found a girlfriend, he got stuck in a dead-end job, and he was abruptly stabbed to death in the street at 37. So when he wakes up in a new world straight out of a fantasy RPG, he's disappointed but not exactly surprised to find that he's not a knight or a wizard but a blind slime demon. But there are chances for even a slime to become a hero.

Summary:

Mikami's life hasn't gone as planned – or hoped. Unfortunately, his left was a fair bit shorter than ended. The one bit of good news is that he woke up in a new world. The strange news? He's now a slime.

Rimuru now has a human form – and that's going to take some getting used to. Unfortunately, the world is changing too much for Rimuru to set everything aside and deal with that. There are ogres on the horizon and even greater foes drawing nearer.

Review:

Interestingly, the stakes continue to grow in That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 3. We know something dark(er) has been on the horizon for a few volumes now. And it feels like we're finally starting to better understand what's going on.

Likewise, we might just have a better idea of why it happened. Meanwhile, a lot of development is still happening in what was once a tiny village in the middle of the woods. Every new volume seems to bring with it new allies. I don't know how far that trend will last, but it will be interesting to find out!

Honestly, the more I read, the more I can see why this series became so popular! At first, I was apprehensive about how OP Rimuru would become. And granted, that's still a concern, but it's quickly overshadowed by everything else.

Highlights:
Isekai
Reincarnation
Comical Manga
Fantasy Setting
