Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Discussion Thread 6

It seems Souei and Ranga are able to move at "near the speed of lightning" with Shadow Motion, which if what I googled is correct, should be about half of relativistic speed (not sure to what that'd translate in VS wiki) since it refers to regular lightning, not Black/Dark Lightning. Rimuru should also be able to scale to that, since even if he didn't learn it, he could still rely on Great Sage to do it for him if neccessary. For other Starwolves, they can only double their speed but can at least also ignore terrain that way.


It was worth mentioning that all the starwolves were now capable of Shadow Motioning themselves around. Not at the near-lightning speeds that Soei and Ranga could manage, but still far quicker than their feet could take them. That was the neat thing about Shadow Motion; it always brought you to your destination in a straight line, ignoring all obstacles in between. As a rule of thumb, the starwolves could traverse this straight line at around twice their regular speed.

Shouldn't Milim (WN)'s equipment have the Dragon Knuckles? Also, it says that she moved in stopped time. Doesn't that make her MFTL+ too?
 
Does anyone know where to find a good pic for Ranga in LN/manga/anime for his Tempest Starwolf form? Preferably colored.
 
Is the manga based on the LN, btw?

Because I do faintly recall something about the claws having power drain and or power nullfication.
 
LN:


Milim was wearing a Dragon Knuckle around her fist—the weapon present I had promised her long ago. Such knuckles were originally meant for punching with your bare hands without hurting yourself, boosting the force of your strikes in the process. Not this one—this was the exact opposite. Put this on, and it restricted your punching power by around 90 percent. The magisteel at its core applied the Reduce Speed and Power Drain inscription magics to the wearer.
~ LN vol. 3​
manga (official TL):


Lastly... we blend some Magisteel engraved with "slowing" and "weakness" effects... and we are done.
~ manga vol. 8​
 
It weakens milim's punching power, she isnt getting a light novel profile for a long time anyway though.

Web novel only said it restricts her punching power to only 10%.
 
Why? Neo just posted that the knuckles restricts her power, why is this crt worthy?

This is nothing new.
 
Ah, so it nerfs her. Alright.

Well, Milim should have Danmaku and Weapon Mastery because of Drago Buster and her usage of Evil God and Dragon Knuckles.

Of course, Danmaku should also be applied to Rimuru's profile as he has every skill. Also, Law Manipulation is missing from several DL's and Rimuru's subordinates by proxy of being an Ultimate Skill User.
 
Ultimate skill doesn't give law manipulation only resistance, we already had a thread about this before.

It's never explained what law manipulation does so we concluded it's too speculative to give the characters the ability.
 
Seeing what the LN does by expanding on stuff the WN didn't, chances are LM will be expanded upon to tell us what it does for those who have them (i.3 Rimuru, Benimaru, Souei, Zegion, etc.)
 
I think this passage from the WN warrants that either Clayman (Web Novel) gets downgraded to "7-C" or Sakaguchi Hinata (Web Novel)'s first key gets upgraded to "At least 7-C". It essentially also confirms that Rimuru was already stronger than Clayman even before becoming a True Demon Lord (at least in the WN).

This is Rimuru talking about Clayman at Walpurgis Banquet:


This guy... is too weak.

He's someone who'd be taken out by Hinata in a moment.

No, rather than weak, maybe I'm just accustomed to seeing Benimaru, Souei, and other department members who are overly strong.

By magic energy alone, he's weaker than Shion.
~ WN chapter 81​
Well, I guess you might add a "temporary High 7-C with Spirit Jewel" or something like that, IF his base AP is enough for that.
 
Considering the gap for town level is 17.5x, i don't think any of the characters should have an At least rating honestly.

But yea hinata is stronger than clayman.
 
In the recent chapter of the manga, it says that magic makes up a monsters existence. I think this was the same when Veldora said he'd die if he ran out of magicules. Would be some sort of Resistence to Existence Erasure, especially since Hinata said that inferior monsters would have been "completely destroyed".
 
The LN describes it as the Holy Barrier "purifying" the magicules, i.e. forcefully turning any sort of Magicules into Holy Element Magicules. C-rank and above monsters are able to maintain their bodies but only A-rank monsters can actually move and only Special A-rank monsters can actually still somewhat fight within it, though it blocks any perception-based Skills that rely on magicules to work, so any monster that depends on that is pretty much screwed - even Rimuru could only fight because he was in human form at the time, though even with that his stats are reduced.

Still since he IS able to resist it to some extent it might be Resistance to Holy Manipulation and/or Resistance to Matter Manipulation.
 
Yes, but the TL who translated the most recent chapter is new and it's hard to judge the quality of the translation itself (though cleaning, editing and typesetting seem to have been done quite well). The issue is that fanTLs might easily just "reference" events that they know, like from the WN, which can make the TL choices biased toward the TL of the WN, however that might caused problems in regards to the differences between WN and LN.

Well, we'll see next week for sure. Not just this issue, but also the issue with Dead End Rainbow.

What happens next week?
LN vol. 5 gets released in English on April 23rd.

Also yeah, best to wait. I still believe if might be resistance to EE, but those look good too.
I think Resistance to EE would apply if Rimuru could withstand a direct hit by the "Disintegration" spell. He obviously doesn't though. At least not with the key he got at the time.
 
Oh right, I forgot that it was resolved like that.

By the way:

  • Shouldn't Rimuru have "Sealed Storm Dragon" in his "equipment"? Since it appears that Veldora's issue about magicules not regenerating (or his Skills being blocked) was somehow resolved by being stored within Rimuru despite the seal being active, he should be able to passively emit his energy again (unless it's after a naming ceremony after which both Rimuru and Veldora need to recover and it takes about 3 whole day to reach back to 100% for both if named too much). But in general it should give him a passive magic power Regenerationn ability, isn't that right?
    • Though how are we going to treat Veldora (LN)? Will be just be attached to Rimuru or will he get a human-form profile too? Or will it be one of those "ABC with Storm Dragon Release, XYZ with Storm Dragon Summon"?
  • Shouldn't every fighter from Tempest have at least one use of Full Potion (Healing on the level of Low-Mid Regenerationn for emergencies)?
  • Hinata should have Holy Manipulation, no? I mean if being a Paladin and the use of the barrier aren't already enough, then the Disintegration spell should be able to prove it at least.
 
Slime selling almost as much as one piece? It was #9 for manga sales last year, probably will be higher this year, i expect the ln to be #1.

@Neo Yea Veldora should be a standard equipment.

Same way we do for the wn, Veldora will get his own profile, and we list Rimuru's ultimate skill of being able to summon Veldora in Rimuru's profile, but that's not happening for a while even after vol 5 is released, we would have to see Veldora fight first.

Where is it stated everyone has a full potion?

Yea Hinata should have holy manipulation.

Saw when our source guy from Reddit postsed the info. Here's the link to said Reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/TenseiSlim..._behind_one_piece_in/?st=jukkijft&sh=3239c586

Breakdown on series data for March 2019:

  • LN - 80K~ copies for LN 14, +40K~ copies backlogs.
  • Manga main - 330K~ copies for volume 11, +220K backlogs.
  • Manga demon country - 90K~ copies for volume 4.
  • Manga Slime Diary- 80K~ copies for volume 2.
  • BD/DVD - 7K~ copies per volume average.
Merchandise not included in Oricon data.

Merchandise, crossovers, and the mobile game do not seem to be factored into this. Let that sink in into how much money this franchise is making.


Edit: Unrelated to Slime, but I'm so ******* happy that Wotakoi, TPN, and Kaguya are all in the Top 10 since they're all so incredibly good.

Given that we're about to hit the Harvest Festival Arc in the manga, oh yeah. Top 5 would not particularly surprise me with these numbers. One thing still kind of saddens me, due to being owned by different compnaies, we're unlikely to ever see certain crossovers with other shows and Fairy Tail and Magi all ended with only 7 Deadly Sins still going. Some crossovers would have been dope as all hell. You COULD maybe do some with Land of the Lustrous as well though.
 
He was a spiritual life form well before that, from when he first became a true demon lord.
 
No that's demons, demons gain physical bodies when entering the material world, spiritual life forms are different, they have no physical body, albeit demons are spiritual lifeforms but whatever.

Rimuru can switch between a spiritual and material body.

I see. Where does his Mid-Godly regen come from though?
 
Absorbed an angel who is a conceptual existence who receives power from the spirit of light who is a concept, in other words can't die as long as the spirit of light exists.

@Sheskaa Don't know but the manga is clearly an anomaly for isekai or ln's, never seen an isekai sell that well to be #9 for the year, the ln comes close to overlord and that was before it had an anime, and overlord's anime was still going.
