Reader’s Question:
I have a question about “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime.” Has the character Carrera already appeared in the manga or anime? If not, how long do you think it will be before they make an appearance?
Excited for Carrera’s Appearance!
Hey there! So, I’ve been diving deep
into “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime,” and I came across this intriguing character, Carrera, also known as 原初の黄 (Jo-nu). It’s funny how the world of anime keeps us on our toes with character appearances, right? From what I gathered, Carrera hasn’t officially shown up in the main manga or anime just yet. I mean, can you believe that? However, there’s this little tease in the anime titled “コリウスの夢” (Korius no Yume) where she pops up under the name Jo-nu alongside Blan. It’s like those sneaky trailers that show just a glimpse of what’s to come, making us more eager for the full reveal! And if you’re into spin-offs, Carrera does make her entrance in “魔物の国の歩き方” (Mamono no Kuni no Arukikata) under her actual name. This spin-off gives us a peek into her life after joining Rimuru’s crew, and honestly, I can’t wait to see how that unfolds in the main storyline. What’s really cool is that in the main series, we’re looking at her first real debut in volume 11 of the original novels. With the anime just wrapping up volume 9, it’s exciting to think that we’re just around the corner from her making her big entrance. I mean, the anticipation is real! You know how it feels when you’re waiting for a favorite character to show up, like that moment in a comedy show when the punchline finally lands? It’s that sweet spot of excitement! Oh, and here’s a little side note that I found amusing: while Carrera and her buddy Testarossa are still going by their old names in “コリウスの夢,” it just feels like they’re in this weird limbo before their true identities are revealed. It’s like when you know a character is destined for greatness but they’re just hanging around, waiting for their moment in the spotlight. I can’t help but chuckle at how this storytelling technique keeps us hooked. It reminds me of those times when I’d arrive way too early to a comedy show, just sitting there, fidgeting with my snacks, hoping the act would start soon. But then, when the lights dim and the first comedian steps up, all that waiting suddenly feels worth it! So, I’m super curious—what are your thoughts on Carrera and her eventual appearance? Do you have any favorite moments from the series that you’re excited to share? Let’s chat about it in the comments!
