I've been a big fan of the series, and the movie is a perfect bridge between the 2nd and upcoming 3rd season. Rimuru is the best protagonist possible. His story is a common one; An overpowered main character who easily solves problems. What makes this so compelling is not what he does, but the character he displays. Rimuru helps people because he wants to, but he also encourages others to step up and become better people by example. He succeeds because he empowers others, and is trusted and loved by his friends, allies, and subordinates. Without knowing the background of the character and his friends, no one could possibly understand how deeply the relationships built over time and through suffering dictate the flow of the story. Sadly, I can't understand why the only other review posted is by someone who never bothered to watch the series. Ill admit that the larger themes and fun might not be obvious under those circumstances. The fans can do better!

This is one of the best movies and keep in mind i'm a guy who rarely watches movies espically for anime, I've finished seires like Naruto, Sissors Seven, Demon Slayer, & Etc. I loved the anime but I don't watch the movies because it just doesn't really fit into the story as its supposed to in the anime, demon slayer kinda does that somewhat well i'm not sure how I would rate the story connection but that movie was also good. This movie i've just watched is spledid the storyline makes me think this is at the very end of season 2 and it continues an amazing story that makes me more hyped for season 3! It was fun to watch overall hope you watch it too! If you don't like it try anything else afterall not everything is someones all time fav.

Let's get on on an adventure of reviewing with rimuru san!

Sypnosis : it's about our fav mc, rimuru tempest and a new character from ogre clan that's facing an entire new problem.

Pros: it's a japanese isekai movie. Of course the animation, soundtrack, sound effects, fight scene, choreography of it will be good and great. The voice actor, timing and the best part.. when they retconning, u didn't feel weird cus it's isekai, shii should be like that.

Cons: it's isekai so the ending kinda typical. Overpowered mc, overpowered sidekick n overconfident opponent. Recipe for a typical isekai anime. Also, idk about the connectivity of it. Is this fillers or this'll be included in the main plot.

Overall, a great anime to watch with other avid of the shows. It's a pillow gripping film and a good enjoyable movie that can be watch in cinema. Recommendable to watch w your anime buddies.
