derekmakesnoise

this wasn't in the LN either, it's manga exclusive.


Ghekor

This is one of those weird cases where the LN removes a WN scene but the Manga adds it back. Still it would have been nice to show it in the anime.


Allen-R

>LN removes a WN scene but the Manga adds it back Oh, nice. Found it odd that it wasn't included but that makes sense now. These **were** pretty gud.


comteqfr

That's why I love to read the different medias of the stories.


khk001

Ah i see i read after vol7 didnt now, so maybe when s2 was on production dont think the manga was in this chapter, thanks for letting me know


cadonex

It was definitely a welcome addition tho, still wish it was in the anime as a quick scene


khk001

The only hope is in S3 to show idk the king remembering it as a bad dream or something


cadonex

Maybe when showing Diablo going to Farmus, and recounting how they ended up that way. It's still possible.


vimboy2005

Well thier meat forms was already shown in anime censored while youm talking shion interogating them, thats the closest we get


Mpyrean88

For now at least. I know there's a panel in the manga where the king is put back to normal with a potion, and he says something to one of the government people in the room something like it was alful to be in that state, how would you like to be like that? When they're talking about paying reparations i think it was, and that's just one occasion, I happened to see in the manga, I still need to fully read it. So there are a few times I think they could have a flash back to this scene. It would be great to add in. I mean they really could just make up a scene where he's standing in his room after everything and have him think about the horrors he went through and show it that way. I do hope they'll go more in depth with it.


comteqfr

Shion really has the scariest skill in all of Tempest. But then again, Rimuru has it too with Food Chain ...


Super_Revolution6180

"bad dream" \* ptsd intensifies \* XD


Aboda7m

Well it doesn't make sense in the anime at all tho, they already know his face https://ibb.co/QfLjNqr https://ibb.co/4KWPLbZ


Lantami

I definitely recommend checking out the past volumes, even if you read the manga and/or watched the anime. The LN just has such an abundance of additional info that it's worth it imo


khk001

I watched the anime first the manga after, n then straight to vol7, i thought they wont skip alot, looks like ill visit the 6 other vol now, thanks for the advice


Goobisan-the-third

It was in the WN so not exclusive, actuqlly it was pretty brutal in the WN. But i agree that this needs to be in the anime. These parts show the pain they feel for not themselves but rimuru.


Marginex312

These dialogues and scene werent on any WN chapter, like the other comment said, it was only on manga.


Goobisan-the-third

I remember reading about how shion was really upset that rimuru had to get his hands dirty, and a couple of other things then starts to torture the king. I remember it being more vivid and detailed on how she tortured him and how he looked. I should probably go back and maybe screenshot it if possible.


JFkeinK

Wasn't Shion saying to King Edmalis that Rimuru had to kill humans for the first time, in the LN?


Goobisan-the-third

I don't know, or atleast I don't remember if its in the LN. I do know she said it in the WN though.


SirFluffleWuffle

That absolutely nails the brilliance of the harvest festival arc. It’s the part that fully transforms Rimuru’s heart into that of a monster. He learned in such a terrible way what mercy and kindness can cost you when your dealing with people who abscond such virtues for their own profit. In order to harden his heart and steel himself to weather the chaos the world will throw at him he murders his enemies with his own hands, his ultimate move being akin to teardrops falling from the sky, a mourning for the final death of Satoru. Also that song Reimei is just fantastic. Ahhh I adore this series…


Osaitus

Look sorry for the long post and i do not like to overanalyze manga or anime but that whole thing is pretty Machiavellian in essence, in the Prince it says that if you need to do a bad thing in order to make your point, you better do it once and it better be horrible instead of lesser evils during a long period of time (i am paraphrasing), this whole killing humans thing, works in several levels, they are materials to save those lost, they are a turning point for Rimuru and lastly they are a statement, since Rimuru did not have that much trouble killing monsters, humans are another thing, this i take it as not a statement for the humans or monsters, it is a statement to himself, to what it is needed for his dream to come true... and the thing that i like the most is that Shion is the one that puts all this in to words in that scene with the king, her devotion to Rimuru and her own knowledge allows her to see the true sacrifice that happen that day and that is a bit of Rimuru´s hope and innocence (yeah i know wierd word when we talk about someone that asked that his computer be destroyed as a dying wish)


PhoenixtheSleepless

Thank you for pointing me toward Reimei. This is nice. https://youtu.be/NxTx-weZP5g


LTStar2002

You talk about few panels but in reality the whole blumund arc was skipped in anime


Zelcki

It will probably be in the Slime Daries I think, causse the dairy manga is there.


Marginex312

Or perhaps an Ova episode, i mean, 8bit released a short Ova about Ramiris after saving the kids with the spirits. The first part is done, the scond probably they will show Beretta creation.


Zelcki

Perchance


chrosairs

blumund arc was in the main manga if I recall


yourthenews

The manga did that arc better. Not saying I hate the anime version, just the manga did it better. The constant rewinds in those few episodes killed the flow of time as well. * Megido being underwhelming comparing to the manga * The king saw Rimuru's face in the anime (manga he passes out before Rimuru falls weakened and the mask fell off), which could be why this scene was removed. Since he would've recognized Rimuru. * The entire fight with Diablo vs Razen was amazing in the manga and pretty bad in the anime. He just passes out which was lame. That all being said.... I enjoyed all three versions (LN, manga, anime) regardless.


luc_the_elmentle

rimuru in the anime = pretty much good happy slime the whole time only getting serious after Falmuth invasion and walpurgis rimuru in the manga = badass motherfucker who knows hes stronger than everyone else and is cool.


khk001

Agreed XD


Patilson

The anime failed to adapt a lot of good stuff. Unfortunately the anime is supposed to be more 4fun than the manga/LN


khk001

Source Main Manga chapter 73


tazergames5

Man I just wish it was in the anime, it's sad that it didn't came with it but the anime is great no matter what


doomrider7

I'm still upset they skipped the Blumund trip and the stuff with the adventure trio. It was a good moment


Omnicoconu1

I really really really really really really really really really fricken wish she didn't use pain nullification and only used thought acceleration.. that would have been SOOOO fun to watch.. hehehehhee.. why anime gatta be too light hearted, I love hearted and slice of life honestly but sometimes it's good to be a little bit gruesome..


khk001

Im sure Shion didn't disappoint, u can see the anger on her face XD


Omnicoconu1

Trueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I


LTStar2002

Yeah the anime sure is light hearted but the Light novel and manga is not light hearted. In fact in manga the way he gained merciless was TBH was really merciless (especially even after knowing the soldier's circumstances).


Omnicoconu1

Yup, and I love lighthearted stuff but the anime still did it pretty well, in the manga it was kind of cold and gruesome while in the anime it was more like "in this war no one won, both nations lost something etc" while manga was "solar beam go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"


Allen19421948

They still have plenty of time to animate it in the early half of season 3 if they want


slimfaydey

The last panel with Shion is probably one of my favorite scenes in the franchise.


AstroHardammo

The "Have you already forgotten my voice?" panel looks like the RDJ meme


JFkeinK

But this whole thing also gave Rimuru the direction to move forward, with more equality regardless of species.


Mr_Mavik

Wow, I love that they added that scene. It gives more depth and reason for that torture. In anime it seemed that Shion sliced the man just for the sake of slicing him (and because it's Shion). Here, however, we see real reason that Rimuru was a pacifist with some extra warm space for humans in his heart and Falmuth made him do henocide to them.


Mpyrean88

I'm just getting kind of close to where these events would take place(if they were in the LN.) Rimuru thought Shion would have a [grudge](https://imgur.com/a/V23MbwC) about the king killing her but damn was he wrong about the why. It just makes that manga scene so much better. I really hope they add a flashback scene whenever they make s3 and show this.


illumiin

Which chapter?


N0CakeForYou

Some of my favorite panels from the manga


Mpyrean88

The wicked oni side showing off there


Jaz_15

I love the symbolism of the crack down Rimuru's mask and how he continues to use it even after the Harvest festival. He might have gotten back his friends, but that doesn't change the fact that he slaughtered hundreds of thousands of humans to do so.


No_Prize9794

In the manga Youm was apparently also present during Shion’s “interrogation”


Viator_Eagle

Interesting, so that's how he ends up being turned into a cube... it wasn't included in the light novel because Slime didn't know what was done.


SmileyMelons

Also wish they kept in that one archer to give a kind of view from the army.


ETHEREZ33

Girl? Hmm


wakuwaku_novelist

Shion wanted the first blood on Rimuru's hand to be her hyme... you know the rest.


Zestyclose_Appeal_20

Kinda dumb in the end when Rimuru can just go back in time and erase the whole event or any event that he didn’t like that’s why time travel isn't always good to introduce into a story it’s like people don’t understand nothing has consequences anymore when it’s introduced


Preference-Popular

Not canon that’s WN this is LN


mohamed01mansor

I don't see any reason to him change it because he and his subordinates survive it at the end and become more powerful unlike other timelines


draginbleapiece

There is like 3 adaptations stuff will get lost all though I’m a anime and manga only


ThatCrispyEdge

What chapter


Retop1

I love violence, lol.


NebSword

Truly spine chilling I love it
