Reader’s Question:
I’m thinking about watching “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime” because someone recommended it to me, but I’m confused about the order in which to watch the main series, movies, and spin-offs. Can anyone help me figure this out? Also, it would be great if you could
let me know where I can find the series on Amazon Prime, including any rental options. Thank you!
Diving into “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime”
So, you’re thinking about diving into “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime”? Great choice! It’s a wild ride filled with humor, adventure, and some surprisingly heartfelt moments. I remember the first time I watched it—sinking into my couch with a bowl of popcorn, ready for a binge session. And let me tell you, I didn’t regret it!
Watch Order: The Lowdown
Now, about the viewing order—that can definitely get a bit tricky! Based on what others have said, the best way to watch is in the order of release. Start with Season 1, then move to Season 2. After that, you can check out “Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken: Kinoko no Kishi” (that’s the “Slime Diaries” for the uninitiated). It’s like a cozy side story that adds some fun tidbits to the main plot. Once you’ve wrapped up with Season 2, you can jump into the movie. Just a heads up though, it’s not available for free on Amazon Prime, so you might have to rent it from somewhere. I remember going to a rental shop and getting a bit nostalgic—picking it up felt like a throwback to those days when we’d rent VHS tapes. Ah, the memories! After you finish the movie, then you can dive into the OVA, “Koru’s Dream,” which is a nice little bonus after Season 2. Finally, finish strong with Season 3. It’s like a satisfying dessert after a hearty meal!
Finding It on Amazon Prime
As for where to watch it on Amazon Prime, you should be able to find Seasons 1 through 3 available there. Just a little tip: sometimes, searching for the Japanese title helps if the English title doesn’t pop up right away. And if you’re like me, you might end up scrolling through your snack stash while waiting for episodes to load—because let’s be real, snacks make everything better!
Personal Reflections
Watching “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime” really made me appreciate the blend of humor and action. There are some moments that had me laughing out loud—like when Rimuru tries to navigate the politics of the monster world while managing his growing community. It’s funny how a show about a slime can evoke such deep emotions and laughter! I also found it fascinating how culturally different some humor can be between Japanese manzai and American stand-up. It’s like discovering a new layer of comedy with every episode. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the humor too! So, what about you? Have you started watching yet?
