The fan service episode frankly.

In episode 4 of The Slime Diaries, Rimuru and about a half dozen friends all travel to a beautiful lake beyond the forest. While there, the group indulges in some relaxing and enjoying the beautiful weather in their swimsuits… which we see on a very regular basis throughout the episode from various angles.

Studio Eight Bit has been doing a fantastic job with this spinoff series so far. Directed by Yuji Ikuhara and written by Kotatsumikan, The Slime Diaries has been such a treat week after week and I feel strongly that anyone who enjoys the primary series (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime) will also enjoy this cute little comedy spinoff.

The Slime Diaries Episode 5 Release Date

The new episode of The Slime Diaries will air on its usual date, which has it airing on Tuesday, May 4th.

The Slime Diaries Episode 5 Release Time

This series airs at 11 pm Japan Standard Time and then appears an hour later outside of Japan on Crunchyroll.

Pacific Time: 8 am
Central Time: 10 am
Eastern Time: 11 am
British Time: 4 pm

As mentioned, The Slime Diaries is a comedy spinoff series from the primary story and is adapting the manga of the same name. The series has been compiled into 3 volumes in Japan as of November 2019, which means there is only just enough material for this one cour with seemingly no real hope of getting a second spinoff season until way in the future.

The good news is that this spinoff is really only serving as a temporary stopgap anyway, since the primary story will return with its second half starting in July 2021!

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime has proven that with just the right topspin, the isekai genre can still have some life within its wilted husk of a body. While the genre has definitely seen some highs and lows over the last decade, there have been some real gems, including this one. If you're not completely sick of the isekai genre and are looking for something to enjoy, you really should look towards this entire franchise!
