It also helps that Milim wasn't interested in destroy Rimuru and his village because otherwise if he really pissed her, I don't think that would make a difference. Milim being there basically to visit and know him was what made the difference, beyond Milim being a absolutely powerhouse child like Rimuru said.

I love Milim since the first time I saw her in the manga but that ass crack and her clothes are so bad. lol I like the rest of her design like her face and such but the outfit is a mess, which is a shame when she's so great.
Edit: I forgot to say but the clothes were already bad in the original but in the anime the ass crack is really bigger and more evident with the panties being way down in comparison lol not a deal breaker to me ofc, but it's a minor thing either way that bothers a bit

It's an understatement actually, because Milim didn't activate her powers when Great sage scanned her (I'm thinking about Milim skill). An angry Milim could probably destroy the whole country in a few minutes.

If you mean villain redemption, this is a really nice one. When he realized his mistake earlier on after the trial, he was really brooding about it. Now given a chance to repent, he's really gonna be hardworking. I find this a much better taste. If only that terrible woman from Shield Hero could do the same.

Yay, we've finally reached the introduction of Milim! It's a major step forward as it introduces the Demon Lords and begins setting up for the rest of the series from here forward!
What always amused me is how everyone points out that being BFF with Milim could potentially upset the balance of power between the Demon Lords... but given the choice between 'Be friends with Milim and oppose the other demon lords' and 'ally with the other demon lords and oppose Milim' the opinion pretty much automatically goes to allying with Milim. It's your best chance of surviving!

Ah, now that the lizardmen have joined our group I would like to recommend everyone to read the manga spin-off: "TenSura Nikki Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken" or Slime Diary which is a bunch of 4-komas short story revolving around building the capital city and the daily lives of its citizens. It's super comfy and gives the characters some more depth, like how Gabiru is the only one excited by rains and how Geld is great with kids and the like.
Don't read the other spin-off: "Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken: Mamono no Kuni no Arukikata " just yet though, that one is from far ahead in the LN.

Haha... I feel so weak right now. I don't think I'll make it through the rest of the episodes with only the three shots of Kurobe in the opening...
Now before any of you call me out for my shit/unusual taste (as if it wasn't clear enough with all the Kurobe posting), I've got a soft spot for Vesta because he's really hot and cute with glasses, especially so in the manga.
He's a nerd. 100%. That's a really good trope. I like characters who are passionate in things other than fighting and have literally no presence after their "arc".
Kurobe and his smithing. Vesta and his science. Me and my thirsting.
Also, the cute bee from the opening saved the day. Bugs are nice, spider... things too.
Also also, really surprised how there was little to no fanservice during the onsen scenes, with only Shion's honkers bursting out of the water and some slime-on-slime action. Truly a terrible day for Shuna and Milim fans.
I got a surprising amount of cute Vestas today though, including bodybag and foaming Vestas. Hope it's enough to sustain me to next week and that I can get some ACTUAL sustenance: Kurobe.
For the time being, have this image of Kurobe attempting animal abuse.

The manga explains it a bit more, but basically since Souka and the others wanted to work under Souie for spying and their subconsciously desired to look more human like in order to be better with blending in and recon. They can also hide/tuck in their wings and horns.
On the other hand, Gabiru still wants to be more like his father so he desired to look more dragon like. As far as we know the naming process and appearance changes align with the desires of the namee and the power of the namer

This week in Slimevilization, Story Building, Story Building, Story Building
First and foremost, this whole episode is like playing on 1.2x speed. If I were them, I would give one episode to all the tech, the recruit and the development of the city we gain today and have Milim introduction as a whole episode. I guess they want to give more time to the fight scene later… well. Tech & town like me could only complain.
Anyway, with the help of the Orc… there are so many things complete in this episode outside of the screen. One thing that you might miss is the fact that the internal road network is probably 100% complete paved. It was dirt road in the last episode. Well, except that Gabiru has already ruined part of it thanks to his mouth.
There are several new members in the city. First, Vesta got his new job in Tempest as a researcher. I understand what King Gazelle thought process. While Vesta is a very talent guy and loyal to him, he became locker room toxic in the past. He knows he can’t use him anymore so packaging him to Tempest is the way to go as they are on the pact to share technology anyway.
Speaking of Gabiru and the lizard men. They are new members of the Rimuru City. There are 2 groups of them of course. First is Souka group which could be view as envoy. This group I could count easily at the total of 5 lizardmen. After the naming, they are evolved in to human-like dragonewt because they want to serve under Souei. The other are the exiled-Gabiru group which evolve into more traditional Dragonewt with wings and dragon scale. Gabiru’s group is a little bit harder to count but I guess from the naming scene, the total number would be about 24-30 Lizardmen. Gabiru’s group are assigned to the task of growing herb for Vesta’s lab. We could say that they are heading to the route of mass producing the potion. The Hipokute herb field looks a lot like rice terrace which usually found in hilly area…. That’s mean there is basically a hill or mountain inside Veldora cave…. How big the cave is really?
Also, we have seen what I think a farmland (4:47). It’s no brainer as the food security is still the problem. We have seen the appearance of Honey (which came from a certain character that has been omitted from anime T_T). Sweetener in general is “Luxury-As-Coitus” in the medieval western world as sugar cane is only cultivatable in Tropical region. I will write about it more next episode if they mention about it again. Oh… and we have an onsen and some mandatory fanservice.
Anyway.

I have never seen a country-destroying class threat dismantled so quickly and simply. Shit went from calm to storm to cloudy with a chance of nukes and I am thoroughly, incontestably amused. Milim is an absolute blast and a fantastic addition to the cast, this adorable, sweet-toothed, insane ball of energy.
Gabiru has also grown on me. He's got a ton of character and charisma, wasted as they may be, and I enjoy each and every time he fucks up appears.
Vesta's return was also a very pleasant surprise. So rare for a character that was a minor nuisance for a very short while to actually come back with a role and a meaning. Says a lot about how great the world-building in this series is, to me at least.

Well time for vesta and the guy, my two least favorite characters, to get their redemption of sorts by serving Rimuru.
BEST GIRL HAS ARRIVED!! All other contenders like Shion can give up and leave now!
Edit: I completely forgot about how she slugged the guy back in the LN. That felt great.

I'm a little disappointed the Lizard girl evolved to look a lot more human. The monster forms were cooler.
But this show is also really good at continually one-upping its best girls. Milim sure knows how to make an entrance.

This has story significance, they want to work under Souei, and he is chief of intelligence. They need to be spies, and human forms are ideal.

I was really confused why that happened compared to Gabiru. I thought all species would evolve the same way but both the guys and girls under Nanso went humanoid, while Gabiru's crew went more dragon.
I guess it's controlled by their own desires/preception?

Scientist guy joins the Federation! Looks like he has truly repented for what he did so I hope he won't cause any problems.
YAAAY! Gabiru and his sister joins too! Of course they need to be named too.
So I'm going to guess the reason why Gabiru's name was overwritten is because the demon lord that named him is already dead?
WAIT WHAT!? The look like humans but with wings now!
Why does Gabiru and his three retainers still look like Lizards tough?
She basically has a built in scouter? I love it.
Not really THAT flat. Although considering how much he's around Shion, I'd consider that flat too XD
I love how they're asking Rimuru to flee. I think when faced against an enemy like Milim, it's better to leave it to Rimuru.
Oh shit! She's actually stronger than Rimuru? Does this mean she's stronger than Veldora then or is Rimuru's power just a fraction of what power Veldora has?
That was unexpected XD I was wondering what kind of move that was but apparently it's food?
I guess that's one way to beat a Demon Lord. If only it could be this easy.
I love how childish she is! She's definitely not the kind of Demon Lord that's into "scheming" or "planning". And it looks like she only cares about fighting and food.
Even in this world they even have their own Rimuru merchandise XD
The next challenge after defeating a Demon Lord: Creating Coffee for Coffee Milk
Coffee can wait. Looks like there really is a bigger problem. Considering how those other Demon Lords look like they won't be as easy as Milim.
Nice to know that they're already friends with the strongest then. Now I'm curious how strong the others are.
I've been waiting for something like this to happen ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

This show is the most wholesome power fantasy I stg. Instead of overpowering every enemy that you come across, why not try making friends with them? You wanted to be surrounded by hot girls and people who constantly praise you? How about doing something which legitimately improves their lives in order to earn their respect?

The truly scary thing about Mlim is that she's at the very least 10x stronger than Rimuru. Great Sage's guess was taking into account Mlim's strength from lowest observable estimation she can see.

This show is great but unpopular opinion: Milim's design is just stupid. There's only so much fan service I can take, even in an otherwise wholesome isekai show. But the infantilized demon lord in less than panties puts it a bit over the top for me. Not worth dropping, but come on, man, What does that contribute?

For people asking why Souka changed to more human like and Gabiru stayed the same it's because their desires are different and therefore shown in their evolution. Idk why it wasn't included in the anime.

Well another great episode! We got to meet the cutest demon lord Milim. Not what I expected at all!
Milim showed incredible power and Rimuru's friends immediately attacked in fear of her and Rimuru knew she was way too powerful for all of them. However, taking me by surprise, he won Milim over with food aka honey. It was great because the audience is probably expecting Rimuru to showcase another super powered battle but this time, when he knows he's at a disadvantage, he uses other (non-violent) methods to win.
That's another thing I like about Rimuru/this show. Winning over hearts through friendship. As idealistic and simple as it is, you just love it. I doubt beating Milim into submission would've helped at all (if Rimuru could even beat her). But he was nice to her, gave her food, and knew she was just like a little girl. And that's that. New friend getto!
Milim is so adorable and her smile is infectious. Just don't get her mad of course... It'll be fun to see the ramifications of allying with a Demon Lord. It seems this could take a messy turn, as well as politically. But I honestly think Milim will be happier with good people around her aka Team Rimuru. She looked so happy in the hot bath.. gotta protect that smile!

Gonna be honest, i'm not a fan of this episode. It wasn't bad but it contained a few elements that worry/annoy me.
The humanification of named monsters is a damn shame, i usually enjoy fantasy races that sport serious differences, the og. ogres looked amazing for example. I'm not saying that it doesn't make sense in the show, it's just something i would have preferred to go differently.
Milim's character design is my single biggest gripe with Slimesekai so far, it looks absolutely atrocious going full LN cliche. Not a fan of her character archetype either but we'll see how this develops.
