Summary:

Mikami’s life hasn’t gone as planned – or hoped. Unfortunately, his life was a fair bit shorter than expected. The one bit of good news is that he woke up in a new world. The strange news? He’s now a slime.

Rimuru’s life has changed so much since first waking up in this new world – and it’s about to change a whole lot more. New allies, potential threats, and more are just around the corner. Will Rimuru and his growing group survive it all?

Review:

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 6 wastes no time throwing readers back into the deep end. To be fair, a lot is going on, so there isn’t much time for hand-holding. We have enemies and allies galore, not to mention a few more twists in progress.

I knew that things weren’t done with the Drawf King Gazel – and while he seemed honorable (if stuck in a bind, thanks to the laws of his kingdom), I wasn’t sure what else to make of him. Still, it was nice to see his plot come back around again.

Speaking of, there are a few new characters for us to know! More than a few, in truth. It’ll take some time for them all to feel fleshed out in my mind, but I’m looking forward to learning more about them, even if they bring complications.

I remember reading a spin-off volume of this series a year or two ago, and this volume helped settle all of that into place in my mind. I finally met one of the major characters for that plot (I probably shouldn’t have read things out of order, whoops), so that was an added bonus for me.

Highlights:

  • Isekai
  • Reincarnation
  • Comical Manga
  • Fantasy Setting
