That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime-s01e01-... Jun 2026

The story begins in modern-day Tokyo. We meet Satoru Mikami, a 37-year-old corporate worker who is generally content with his life, despite being single. He is portrayed as a kind, protective senior colleague. This characterization is crucial because it establishes his altruism—the very trait that leads to his "death."

Everything changes during a casual street meeting with his junior colleague, Tamura. A crazed attacker rushes through the crowd, and Satoru instinctively shields Tamura, taking a fatal stab wound to the back. The Reincarnation Mechanic: Dying Requests

While meeting a younger colleague and his girlfriend, a sudden attacker dashes toward them. In a selfless act, Satoru pushes the couple out of the way and is fatally stabbed in the back. As he bleeds out on the sidewalk, a mysterious voice begins speaking to him. His dying thoughts ("I wish I didn't feel pain," "I wish I could see") are systematically turned into "Skills" and "Resistances" by a voice in his head, literally wishing his new body into existence.

He spends his first days (or weeks, as time is abstract in the cave) bouncing around, eating magical hipokute herbs and glowing magicore minerals. Because of his innate skill, his body dissolves these materials and converts them into highly potent healing potions and pure magical energy.

The first episode of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is a smart, funny, and refreshing take on the isekai genre. It prioritizes character chemistry and creative problem-solving over flashy battles. While the death scene feels rushed, the introduction of Rimuru and Veldora creates immediate investment. Highly recommended for fans of fantasy, comedy, and underdog stories. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime-S01E01-...

As Satoru bleeds out, his dying thoughts are interpreted by a mysterious "Great Sage" system. His complaints about the cold, the pain, and his unfulfilled desires are transmuted into unique skills. This sequence is a masterclass in world-building, setting up the mechanics of the world before we even see a glimpse of it. A Squishy New Beginning

The episode wastes no time subverting expectations. It opens not in a fantasy world, but in the fiery destruction of a girl engulfed in a pillar of flame, before cutting to the mundane streets of modern-day Tokyo. Here we meet our protagonist, (voiced by Miho Okasaki / Brittney Karbowski), a 37-year-old corporate salaryman who is "content" with his life, despite admitting he is a virgin and has never had a girlfriend.

The car slams into Satoru. The impact is sickening. He lies on the pavement, feeling his warmth fading.

His random stream of consciousness about being cold, hot, and stabbed is interpreted by a computerized voice as requests for special abilities. 💧 Enter the Slime! The story begins in modern-day Tokyo

As he dies, a "voice" interprets his final thoughts and grants him absurdly overpowered skills, including "Great Sage" (analytical thinking) and "Predator" (the ability to consume things and acquire their skills). 2. Reborn as a Weakling... Or Not?

The absolute star of the show. This skill allows him to consume anything, analyze it, and replicate its abilities.

By the time the end credits roll, Satoru has evolved from a tragic murder victim into an incredibly durable creature possessing an advanced analytical mind, vast stores of magical medicine, and a literal dragon for a best friend. It is a masterful pilot episode that promises a grand, intelligent fantasy adventure.

Then do it, Rimuru! Eat me!
