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.
Rimiru's life is never dull, is it? We now know that a huge battle is on the horizon. More importantly, Rimiru is finally getting a better idea of just who is behind the battle – and what it could cost his allies if he fails to step up.
Review:
I love that each volume adds to the complexity of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. At first, I wasn't sure how the series would carry over into so many volumes – but I'm starting to get it! Likewise, I understand why there has been so much (positive) chatter about the series.
If you enjoy a fantasy series full of action, you'll love That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 4. It's fast-paced with many battles to view. As such, there isn't a ton of room for everything else – so character development and the like will be set to the side. It's a balancing act. That said, I hope we learn more about some of the newer characters in the next volume.
It feels like we're nearing the culmination of the first major arc, but it's hard to be certain. I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out – and how all the details come together.
