Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Episode 45
Okay, let's talk about *that* episode. You know the one. Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken, Episode 45. Yeah, that one.
"Tempest's Diplomats" - More Like Tempest's Coffee Break?
Am I the only one who thought the diplomacy was... relaxed? Seriously, everyone's sipping tea and being all polite. Where's the drama, people?
I mean, it's not bad. But I was expecting a bit more tension. Maybe a thrown teacup or two? Just a little something to spice things up!
The Power of a Good Cup of Tea
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate a good negotiation. Especially when *Rimuru* is involved. That slime knows how to charm the pants off anyone, figuratively, of course.
But maybe all that diplomacy was just a clever ruse to get better tea leaves? Think about it. Ultimate power move.
Tempest IS known for its high standards. They even have dedicated researcher to create the best product, no wonder!
Unpopular Opinion: Milim's Boredom is Relatable
Okay, here's where I might lose some of you. I actually understood Milim's boredom! She's a powerhouse with nothing to do but eat honey.
We've all been there. Stuck in a situation where we're overpowered and understimulated. It's a real struggle. Honey just isn't enough to satiate the boredom, it seems.
Don't judge her! She just wants a good fight. Or, you know, a really, REALLY good snack. Maybe both?
Benimaru: The Unsung Hero of Patience
Can we just give Benimaru a medal? Seriously. He has to deal with EVERYTHING. And he does it with such stoic grace.
He's like the ultimate babysitter for a nation full of powerful (and sometimes eccentric) individuals. Bless his heart. He deserve a raise! (And a vacation!)
I think he could teach a masterclass in patience. I definitely need to sign up.
The Cliffhanger That Wasn't *That* Cliffhangery
Okay, the ending. Was it just me, or was it a bit... meh? I mean, cliffhangers are supposed to leave you on the edge of your seat.
This one felt more like a gentle nudge. A polite reminder that, yes, there's another episode next week. Thanks, I guess?
Maybe I'm just too jaded. I needed a dragon attack or something. Or at least a dramatic reveal about Clayman's masterplan!
Overall: Still Slime-tastic (Mostly)
Look, I'm not saying the episode was bad. It's still Slime Datta Ken! Which means it's still entertaining.
I just think it was a bit... quieter than usual. More talking, less action. More tea, less explosions.
But hey, even slimes need a break sometimes. Bring on the next episode, I'm ready (and slightly caffeinated).
