Slime Taoshite 300-nen, Shiranai Uchi ni Level Max ni Nattemashita

How do I even start with this review... Simply to put it in a few words, I don't like this anime. It's not because I hate this anime, but because there's nothing I like here. Hear me out. There's nothing really going in this anime. And that frustrates me because of how locked the perspective and the whole premise of this show is. Something like this can easily be fit within a 12 minutes cour season. Not a full 24 minutes cour season. To put it simply, this anime is just a huge waste of time. There's really no point in this anime existing. What's the point here? There's no conflict, no plot moving forward, nor any important plot threads that puts together a coherent story. Nothing. It's just a boring story about a boring protagonist and her boring life. Slow life, more like painfully tedious life. Again, I've said this before in some of my reviews, but stories need to have a reason to exist, otherwise what's the point of it existing? Sure, you can make unique stories with that mindset, but who cares if it doesn't follow the basic story-telling. There's a reason why cliche stories still works to this day, because of how they twist the formula, but still keeping it the same. But this anime is a SOL, so if I say it to this anime, won't it apply to all SOL anime as well? Well, no actually. Some of SOL anime yes, but most of them have a reason to exist. Whether they actually tell a story with moral lessons with the disguise of being SOL anime (Mushishi, etch.), or SOL anime that is romance-based. Of course, these two are two of the some examples, and even then, the anime would still suck if it isn't executed well. Well, moving on. The characters. Oh boy, oh boy. I really don't like how one-dimensional the characters are. They are basically just a set of archetypes, so it's not really that interesting to watch them. Honestly, even my dumb dogs have more personality than all of these cardboard characters. There's basically no personality in the cast nor the side characters because they all basically agree to one another with few exceptions. The animation is decent. It's just real cutesy and moe sh*t. The animation is really decent at best, so I don't have anything to say about it. The music is also decent. I find the ost to be super lacking, but the ed is surprisingly decent. The opening though, I can't put my fingers to it, but I don't like it. It's not my cup of tea. Overall, just a bad anime without any purpose to exist. (3.2/10)

Slimes. Everyone knows what it is. They are more often than not, one of the first creatures one will encounter in video games of fantasy worlds, bar none. As such, they are easily defeated. It’s only when one faces more than a blob of slime that they can get to be a problem, because they attack in groups or in tandem with other types of monsters. In essence, simes find great power in numbers. So why does one kill them if they are too stupid to mean any real ill will? They’re not just holders of experience and loot. Some kill them because they reproduce extremely quickly. They are capable of asexual reproduction once every few minutes, and it is often used as a means of self defense (as can be seen in Secret of Mana). Otherwise, they just kind of go and do it as they please. A single slime can create hundreds of clones a day, and those clones can create further clones, and so on, and so forth. There are mandates in most fantasy worlds to kill slimes on sight, as to help keep their populations down. It is also ill-advised to keep one as a pet, regardless of how insanely cute they may be. Without the right training, a pet slime can grow to be a big problem very quickly. There is no known way to “neuter” them; they just keep reproducing willy-nilly until they are killed. But if slimes are good, these prove that they can be noble, hardworking creatures if they absolutely have to. In the meanwhile, one will keep coming across their brethren on the battlefield and slicing open their gooey centers for gold and EXP (mostly that). But from this point forward, one can do so knowing everything about the little creature he/she is slaying. Know that he/she must kill them to further their adventuring career and to help the environment! It is cruel, but it is the way of virtual nature. Now take a look at Slime 300. Yet another Syosetu work, which means that it's no doubt an Isekai. But to see someone who has consciously died in real life, only to get resurrected in another world just to kill slimes for 300 years as means of protection for her village brethren, that's some insane "God"-like feature that one can only dream of grinding the monotonous way just to be OP. And all that hinges on 27-year-old Azusa Aizawa, overworked with stress to the point of humanly death, to get rebirthed and killing slimes as an immortal, and dubbed the "Witch of the Highlands" due to her expertise on medicinal knowledge. Talk about OP in the most generic and literal sense, though I'd believe that only a handful of gamers actually did MAX their levels this way. You're a genius if you could just bear grinding and levelling up with just slimes alone. I tip off my Fedora hats to you. The basis of Slime 300 is just what it is: a fantasy, comedic, slice-of-life CGDCT. What, you only realize now that the entire character cast consists of only females? Man, you're slow on the uptake. That said though, Azusa "the Witch of the Highlands" Aizawa has had quite the objective to just grind slimes for 300 years for boredom's sake until level MAX, so much so that as low-key as Azusa wished she'd live the stress-free life, people come knocking on the insanely powerful girl's doorsteps instead. From challenging her as a sorta "Final Boss" treatment to recruitment because she is a great asset to the group, Azusa is constantly bombarded from mere humans, to even monsters and creatures. Atta girl. One by one, Azusa's "family" gets bigger after the numerous amount of attempts to sink or reel her in, and her adoptions are as follows. Minor spoilers be warned, but honestly it's no biggie: - Firstly, the shape-shifting red dragon Laika. Like many challengers who've come and failed at the same time, Laika is no different in this department. Getting thumped and whomped by the Witch of the Highlands is embarrassing enough, even for a dragon species, and if that's not enough, she carelessly destroys Azusa's house in the process. Seeing as though that's her fault in her first place, Laika makes amends to help repair her house, and at the same time, requests to be the Witch's apprentice/pupil. Family no. 1 adopted. - Secondly, the slime spirit girls: the turquoise Falfa and lime-green Shalsha. Having had their brethren killed for 300 years without a cinch, the 2 slime spirit girls are noticeably sad, and one of them hatches a plan to get revenge on Azusa, which again, like Laika before her apprenticeship, fails to do so. The acknowledgement that other brethren slimes that doesn't originate from them are allowable to be exterminated, and Azusa adopts the slime daughters, which Falfa appropriately called Azusa their "mother". Family No. 2 and 3 adopted. - Thirdly, the nonsensical elf apothecary Halkara. She is easily the funniest character of the family due to her abrupt mood swings, aside from having a busty build of a body. In the real world, think of those insurance agents who go out of their way to chase people into purchasing their products, and Halkara is the exact same: marketing her products to people around her and not giving two Fs about it...until she manages to piss off someone (that we'll comeback to soon) and seeking for protection when threatened. The mushroom-knowing but scatterbrained and accident-prone elf you are, all the blame's on you Halkara. Her purpose to stick around in the family is so until her business can get moving again. Family No. 4 adopted. - Fourth, the demon girl Beezlebub. Having been naively bought into Halkara's nonsene of a product, the side-effects caught onto her, and as such for compensation, she seeks revenge against this scatterbrain of a character, to which under someone's protection, deems that she is a potential enemy. As expected, it does not take too long for the misunderstanding to get fleshed out, and with the constant challenges that racked up more losses overtime, Beezlebub is stuck into following Azusa's growing family as well...and still purchasing Halkara's product, because that's a thing. Family No. 5 adopted. - Fifth, the blue dragon Flatorte. Even within the dragons themselves, different beings will have different temperaments, and that's definitely the case with both her and Laika. Going out of hand to gate-crash a wedding between red dragons, this feud is unstoppable, until both Azusa and Beezlebub had to intervene by attacking Flatorte's brethren blue dragons and eventually making peace within both red and blue dragons, much to the chagrin of the latter, which stems from her discipline problems (that slowly overtime gets better). Family No. 6 adopted. - Last but not least: Sixth, the ghost girl Rosalie. Initially, she was hampering Halkara's business, so much so that it scared workers off, and so Azusa and her indirect family has to solve this issue directly on-site. It was tough NGL, to get the restless ghost out of her comfort zone and relocate her to Azusa's house, which, you've guessed it: Rosalie eventually becomes part of the family, completing the family relations as adoption No. 7. Phew...this is a lot to take in for a growing budding family of 8 girls, but we're not done yet. Under Beezlebub's command are 2 girls: Fatla and Vania, both are Leviathan women, and the former is the older sister-cum-secretary. Despite very much looking like whales that stem from the myth that they are water creatures, they are in fact air dwellers, employed for living transportation with a resort on their backs. This is common in the Demon Realm that serves Beezlebub and privileged guests to their designated places, and both sisters have to work in tandem with one resting and one working as transport. Rounding this up with the Demon King: a loli Pecora, whom is like PriConne's Illya in every way with the natural kid-cum-mature adult transformation. The small, petite girl that can be interacted with informally and cheerfully, she can be a viable threat when she goes all-in. The other females (the shy immortal "Witch of the Cave" Eno, music singer almiraj ministr…

it's an isekai in name only. aside from the first episode and mention of reincarnation in the last episode, the isekai aspect of the show has no bearing on it. The first episode is a snore, as it explains her being isekai'd and sets things up for the show to actually begin. The ONLY way her being reincarnated in this world factors in is as a motivation for her wanting to live an easy laid back life. So, while this is technically an isekai, I wouldn't consider it one. Our main character reincarnates and the story starts after a 300 year time skip of our immortal heroine living in that world. she's lived in that world several times longer than she lived her life as a japanese woman. I can barely remember what life was like 10 years ago, so she really isn't thinking of japan 300 years later. This world is her world far more than her previous life at this point. The isekai part serves no purpose aside from putting it in the genre, it should just be a story about an immortal witch who wishes to live a peaceful life. It's really just a slice of life show set in a fantasy world. It's just a show about cute girls doing wholesome and cute things. it tries to be funny, but the comedy falls flat most of the time. it has some ecchi, but that too sort of falls flat. it's really just a relaxing anime about cuteness. There are some battles too, as the main character is overpowered. Character interactions are this shows strongest point, but don't go in expecting too much.

In the vast sea of isekais about defeating demon lords and getting trapped in a game world emerges Slime 300, an isekai that's all about living a peaceful life... and slaying slimes. Slimes are what's known to be the most common and well, less rewarding monsters to kill in RPG games. However, this anime takes the entire weak concept of slimes to the spotlight and makes the MC slaughter them for 300 years only to achieve the max level. Think that's a good idea? Well, we'll see. [TL;DR] Characters: 7/10 Art and Animation: 5/10 Music and Sounds: 5/10 Story: 6/10 Enjoyment: 10/10 Overall: 6.6 (7) [Characters 7/10] Let's start with what builds the entire story, the characters. Although the characters are nothing special and are basically what you will expect in an isekai anime such as elves, slimes, witches and dragons, they somehow managed to be interesting enough and sure contributed a lot to the comedy aspects of the anime. They know who they are, they have their own backstory, and all have a unique personality. The only downside about the characters is their lack of character development. I have only seen development in 1 or 2 characters but they are too minor and happens in the exact same episode the character was introduced in, which makes people overlook it easily. SPOILERS AHEAD: There's also a "curse" for the characters in Slime 300. If you see a new character get introduced, you should be expecting it to have some sort of cute girl form. From fearsome dragons to bouncy slimes, if it becomes somewhat relevant to the main plot of the story, it has a 101% chance to transform into a cute girl for no reason. I personally don't find this annoying but I do find it weird. SPOILER END. [Art and Animation 5/10] The art in Slime 300 is surely not the best and not the worst either, it's kind of in the middle. Sometimes the art can very well be a piece of art, but sometimes it can also be a piece of trash. The animators tend to not shade the characters in dark areas a lot which creates an effect of weirdness when half of the screen is properly shaded while the other half of it is just coloured in a single colour. There are also times when the character heights are messed up. For example in episode 9, Shalsha appeared only a few centimeters shorter than Halkara for some time when she's meant to be a lot shorter than that. They are also known to occasionally reuse animations. "Wait, what's wrong with reusing animations? It's a smart way to cut down the budget!" Well, I do think so as well, but the fact that they forget to remove the mouth animation of the characters in some reused animations when they're not talking is just a bit more than simply reusing animations to cut down the budget. Other than those, the art in Slime 300 is not really that bad, and the cutesy art style fits the anime. The background images and visual effects look amazingly appealing and I won't be embarrassed to put them on as my wallpaper. They've shown potential to create smooth camera movements without the use of CGI such as in episode 6 when Rosalie is marvelling the night sky. Although the art can certainly be bad at times with maybe a few episodes as exceptions, it wouldn't effect the watching experience much if you just bear with it. [Music and Sounds 5/10] Probably the only thing I dislike about this anime is the mass reuse of soundtracks. They have this isekai-themed soundtrack that they use a lot in scenes where the characters hang out together or do something dumb, which I don't actually mind because who has the money to produce so many soundtracks for the same purpose anyways? BUT what I care about is that they literally used this funny soundtrack for inappropriate scenes such as action scenes that felt intense. Think that's actually acceptable since they don't stay long and aren't that important? Well, what if I tell you they also used that exact soundtrack for touching moments (at least they could've been), which completely ruined the atmosphere? There are still parts where the studio did a great job in this category though, such as that literally almost all of the sound effects are dubbed by the legend, Yuuki Aoi. Instead of hearing sparkling sound effects, you hear Yuuki saying "kira kira~". I personally found this approach very fun and unique since not many anime I know does this and it matches the comedic atmosphere of this anime. Slime 300 also has beautiful OP, ED and insert songs (TINY SPOILER: *cough* Episode 10 was a treat. *cough*) and they became the only songs on my Spring 2021 anisong playlist. I've been listening to them for 300 minutes and emptied out my phone battery. :) [Story 6/10] The story starts off with Aizawa Azusa suddenly dying for overwork, which is a serious problem in the society right now. The story then proceeds to let us feel severe déjà vu by using the common isekai plot of meeting an entity that reincarnates the MC with some sort of OP ability, in this case being the ability to become immortal. Alright, OP ability acquired, what's next? Forming an army to save the world? Nope. Azusa decides to just live like any other normal person and killing an average of 25 slimes every day as a source of income. 25 x 365 x 300 x (2 + 2) = Lv 99. She maxed out her level after 300 years and here's where the real story starts. The story in Slime 300 is pretty simple and straight forward, it is what it is and doesn't have any hidden meanings behind it. This can be both a good thing and bad thing depending on what kind of entertainment you are looking for. A new problem arises almost every episode, and the story is all about Azusa and the "family" solving them and putting the problems into a close. Besides getting reincarnated into a game world by a goddess with some OP ability, the rest of the story is quite original and interesting enough to keep me watching without urging to watch something else. However the sequence of most episodes are very predictable (much like a lot of other animes I guess): A new problem arises -> Azusa summons Beelzebub into the bathtub? -> Tracks down the troublemaker -> Troublemaker transforms into a girl -> Troublemaker apologizes -> Troublemaker either disappears for a few episodes before reappearing or joins the family -> Yay, ED plays! Yes, that's exactly how the original "family" of 4 expanded into huge numbers. If you look at the episode list, you might realize that the first few episode names all start with "Along came the blah blah blah", "A blah blah blah appeared!", etc. and I think you know why now. [Enjoyment 10/10] "What? Why a perfect score?" Well, it's because this anime brought me the most laughs this season and made me feel better and recover during sad times in the 3 months of it airing. Don't get me wrong, even though I gave this anime an overall score of 7 and pointed out a lot of its downsides, it was the only anime this season that made me feel hyped for the next episode every week. Even during rewatching a few episodes to confirm my statements in this review, it still made me laugh a lot in the process, although I have already seen it all and know what is going to happen next. It might not have good character writing, it might not have good art, it might not have a good plot, but it does a great job in keeping the viewers entertained and relaxed. [Overall 7/10] Admit it, no one watches this to get excited or to feel severe emotions (maybe except 1 episode *cough*). We only watch it to relax and get a few laughs. If you're looking for a soothing slice of life comedy, I would recommend to at least give the first few episodes a try as Slime 300 does a great job in that case. Despite having a lot of downfalls, it is still a great series to spend your free time with. If this anime does get a Season 2, I sincerely hope that it will receive better treatment in production. [Conclusion] Animes are all filled with gore and violence recently, and Slime 300 is for you to take a break from them. Thanks for r…

Slimes for 300 years is the DEFINITION of an average anime. I watched this maybe a year or so ago, and I hardly remember a single thing about it. That should be all you need to know. It's not memorable. There's no substance. A good anime will have memorable plot points, characters, etc. This anime has nothing. It's a filler while you wait for other shows to come out. It does shake up the Isekai trope somewhat, wherein the whole "transported to another world and figuring out what the hell is going on" arc is nearly entirely absent. The character has been in the alternate world for 300 years (shocker), and is blatantly overpowered with weak allies. Go figure. They try to draw away from their lack of substance with fan service and it does not work on anyone out of their prepubescent age. However, it's not BORING, it is somewhat entertaining to have on in the background (dubbed) while you're doing something else. This is a skip. If you're looking for something to get attached to.

English. Well the title of this literal series tells us the plot of the anime, this is a temporary anime that you can watch on a Sunday to relax, the format is very similar to what sitcoms are since each chapter has a different plot and there is no apparent plot line to follow. I believe that this type of anime is created to pass the time and have fun from time to time, it does not contribute anything and the truth is that the situations it shows are not that funny, nor that entertaining, they are fine. The characters are charismatic and each one has a different personality that makes them instantly recognizable, the main story goes nowhere and what you see are some days in the life of this group of girls. The conclusion is that this anime is mediocre and although it sounds bad, the truth is that it is not bad to be mediocre, the episodes are fun and there are some better than others. Español. Bueno el título de esta serie literal nos dice la trama del anime, este es un anime pasajero que puedes verlo un domingo para relajarte, el formato es muy parecido a lo que son las sitcoms ya que cada capítulo tiene una trama diferente y no hay un hilo argumental aparente que seguir. Yo creo que este tipo de animes son creados para pasar el tiempo y divertirte de vez en cuando, no aporta nada y la verdad las situaciones que muestra no son ni tan divertidas, ni tan entretenidas, están bien. Los personajes son carismáticos y cada uno tiene una personalidad distinta que hace que los identifiques al instante, la historia principal no llega a ningún lado y lo que vez son algunos días en la vida de este grupo de chicas. Es conclusión este anime es mediocre y aunque suene mal, la verdad no está mal ser mediocre, los episodios son divertidos y hay algunos mejores que otros.

I don't know if there if any way that I could list all of the great things about this show. I enjoyed it immensely. I can understand why some people wouldn't like it, simply because I always have take into account those that don't like the style and simplicity. It's not going to challenge you, but it will soothe you in a lot of different ways. Here are all the things that I found great about it as I can think of, off the top of my head. If you watch this, I hope you can find them too. The visuals are amazing. The color is maintained throughout. Transitions are wonderful. It's wholesome x10. The gradual build to all of the main characters, which reaches a large amount is handled individually and shows up by every episode. The balance of characters is just about perfect. The dub was spot on. Kudos to the actors that got all of the emotions and expressions and reactions perfectly. That goes across the board from adults down to children. Like every other gag character, the one here was no exception to my annoyance, though she's still fits a pretty good gap and was a nice way to accent all of the regularness (yep, not a word, but I went with it because it's worth it that's when I was recording this.) There was consistent attention to detail to the little things that you don't realize is being done. For example, there is a ghost that has blue flames that hang over her shoulders. If she is behind a couple of people and only one flame is showing and she flies just enough for the other shoulder to show, the flame shows as well. This was mostly a two-part, one episode show, though there are two that take up the whole time slot. I needed this is a breather from some of the things I have been watch and I made a wonderful choice; simple dumb luck paid off. I've added two more 10/10 shows lately I'm truly tickled. I'm ready to go back to something more like what I usually see. As mentioned, 10/10. I slap a very hard recommend on this.

I watched it because the producer has created great anime so far. But, it turns out to be a great driver steer the Triumph Mayflower. The problem lays on the original creator himself. Lack of humor sense, story telling, and character development. The anime is only highlighting to the cuteness throughout the series. The original creator is just like hentai ojiisan staring at the bunch of cute high school girls in the train and made a wild fantasy on his head, and then show everything off to the audiences. I just watched 12 episodes and my neuron starting to die. Jesus Christ! I need a healing!!!

I’ll say that this will be my very first review for an anime. I'm still not too familiar with how things work on mal but I will try my best. When the trailer dropped for this anime I got hooked, an isekai about killing slimes for 300 years? Sounds good enough for me and the mc looked cute. But man, I had high hopes for this one but it disappointed me. I was struggling with not dropping it for the last 5 episodes but I managed to finish it altogether. Since this will be my first anime review it will be rather short and to the point about my likes and dislikes. (DISCLAIMER: This review will contain minor-spoilers regarding this anime) The first things I will bring up about this anime are the pros: Animation/Visuals - 8/10 Best Part Most likely the best part this show could offer, relative good animation with pleasant looking visuals. It almost felt like a waste at the end of the show. By looking decent enough they could fool people into thinking it was going to be amazing; at least it was visual wise. Animation was fluid and rarely felt stiff which was enjoyable and the art style itself was decent looking. Story - 5/10 Mediocre At Best Usually I have no problem with a typical isekai story as long as it has interesting characters and the story itself is a little bit different and I thought at first that it was the case with this one. Death by overworking, being reincarnated into an immortal witch who slays slimes for 300 years and ends up being super powerful, sounds interesting enough for me. Well that was basically the very first episode, then it goes downhill after episode 3. Nothing exciting happened in the story that kept me hooked, things did happen but it was either bothersome or not the slightest interesting. It didn’t exactly go bad but I lost interest pretty fast. Here comes the cons: Characters: 3/10 Boring, Mediocre or Annoying Some of these characters in the show (especially Halkara) got on my nerves pretty quickly and it became clear to me that this was going to lower my score for the show. When someone made a mistake it felt more like a plot device than a genuine mistake from the character themselves. Let me not get into how uncomfortable Pecora made me with her ‘’big sister’’ obsession, very weird tension between her and Azusa (poor Azusa). Speaking of her, Azusa might be one of the few I somewhat liked, she ain’t anything special but she does her job as the main MC but I’m not sure how she can put up with everything. Majority of the characters felt pretty plain and there was nothing intriguing about them either, usually I don’t need super developed characters to enjoy something but this felt rather cheap. Comedy - 3/10 Made Me Laugh Once Everyone has a different taste and preference when it comes to comedy and this was not for me. It wasn’t terrible though; it got a few chuckles out of me and a genuine laugh at one part but it was lacking overall. When it came to certain parts it felt more like what I would call ‘’fanservice comedy’’, making me either slightly uncomfortable or simply roll my eyes. Sometimes it would be predictable too, for example when Halkara said she didn’t pick any poison mushrooms and acted clueless when there was in fact poison mushrooms there because she has done the exact same thing in the past. Conclusion - 4/10 Disappointed Overall To summarize my thoughts about ‘’I’ve Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level’’ into a single sentence; ‘’It was like the start of a rollercoaster which was slowly going up and when going down it went straight into hell’’ The amount of times I wanted to drop this one was more than what I can count but I wanted to see it all and judge it fairly. Characters weren’t enjoyable, the story was mediocre at best, the comedy wasn’t really great but the animation and art style was good. It had potential to be a little bit different and enjoyable but with that type of cast won’t do at all. I tend to enjoy slice of life but it felt like I was watching a chia plant grow, painfully slow. Wouldn’t say I recommend this to anyone but you can check it out if you’re curious, just don’t expect a masterpiece.

I didn't expect to be watching such a unique series in my life. The plot is terribly thin and the action moves incredibly slowly. However, everything is so ienormous dyllic that it's incredibly relaxing and sympathetic to watch. I have no idea what the target group is, whether they are 12-year-olds or lesbians, but its ok. I have no idea what to expect in the second season, whether there will be more characters again, or on the contrary, the current characters will be deepened in terms of character. I see a great reseamblance between Halkara and Sławomir Mentzen (capacity for large amounts of beer, capitalism and physical features)

This anime is so bad. Don't get me wrong, i love some isekai slice of life anime like honzuki or kami tachi ni hirowareta otoko or kuma kuma bear or other. But like wtf is this anime, the first episode is still good, but in the next episode.... Just imagine, an enemy comes, and then fight each other, a few moments later they become friends and live together. And it's keep going for few episode. Like wha'???? People say "It's a slice of life type of anime, don't watch it if you want more action.". I get it, but when compared to other anime, the storytelling of this anime is very, very lacking. Other than that, all is fine. The art, sound, and else.

It's boring. Literally nothing happens. The conflict is always solved way too fast and easily, the "battle music" does not fit the battle itself, and the battles are uninteresting as hell anyway, especially with the fact that you know that the protagonist will win and won't even get a single scratch (Which I know is the point of isekais, but just give SOMETHING to lose). I also find it pretty unrealistic that the protagonist can just live the slow life for 300 years because that is bound to get boring, but no, the character doesn't care and doesn't bother to change, not even wanting to explore the fantastical world that she has been put in. It's just a boring anime all about a boring protagonist. The worst objective part about this anime as well is that there's yuri, or implied sexual tension between two girls, and one of the characters actually supported it, which is just blasphemous. Especially with the fact that those two girls were implied to be "sisters" (even though in reality they're not, they're more like step-sisters than anything, but I hate the thought of it anyway). And the characters, oh boy, the characters. The characters of this anime literally only has ONE character trait each. They're so shallow I can explain their entire character in one sentence: One is a big-boobied airhead, another is a boring ass bitch, two of them are two kawaii lolis, etc. There's literally no substance, they're all boring as hell. Anyway, loved it, can't wait for season 2.

I'm not sure if the anime is this bad or if I'm experiencing whiplash because I watched 3 amazing movies in a row. Sadly, I think it's the former. Slime 300 is categorized as a slice of life out of necessity. It's too unfunny to be a comedy. There's no conflict, no drama, no plot so there's no chance of it being anything else. I hate calling it a slice of life too because in reality, it's a slice of nothing. The protagonist is immortal, the strongest, loved by everyone. She doesn't do much, doesn't want to and doesn't have to. The show isn't suspenseful, complex, funny nor entertaining. You get to watch an assortment of anime girls do really boring and uninteresting things for 12 episodes. Each one of them feels like it lasts forever because NOTHING of note happens. I know that in slice of life, nothing important happens either. But that's not what I mean. I actually do enjoy slice of life when done well. However, slice of life anime usually has unimportant but entertaining events. I don't want them to save the world, but I want them to do something I care about. Sadly, I cared about nothing here. If you wanna watch anime girls do really boring things, go ahead. Otherwise, skip this.

If you are reading this, please do not be dissuade with the rating of the Series it is by no means a terrible watch. Just like the quote say "Do not judge a book by it's cover". That being said, before proceeding to watch this Anime, I would like to emphasize that if you are looking for an adrenaline fueled Isekai I would recommend looking for something else. That being said, if you really want to watch this Anime and want a relaxing/passive/auto flight (or what ever you want to call it) Isekai genre I would definitely recommend this Series. I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level emphasizes on the "Slow Life" feel throughout the show, meaning it gives the viewers a relaxing feel where you just want to retire in a Country-side, only that it's Fantasy-based. It has an OP FMC and yes it contains the traditional Isekai formula that most Isekai Anime that was recently released. That being said, it gives the viewers an opportunity in visualizing through Azusa what it's like to retire in place where one can relax and think without any worries, which in my opinion is the Strong point of the show. Sometimes in life, you just want to relax and escape from the harsh reality that this life gives. This anime offers you that experience.

If you want to watch an "easy going" anime, a slice of life that takes place in a fantasy world with cute characters, you should give a try to Slime Taoshite ! Don't watch this for its isekai tag since it's almost non-existent, it's litteraly mentionned once in the very first minute of the anime, and afterwards, the reincarnation of the MC doesn't bring anything to the plot, except a few comic reliefs here and there. I've seen some bad reviews that criticise this anime for its lack of plot/character development, but this feels unfair. I mean, I could understand this can be seen as a flaw for "thriller" animes, ones like death note for instance where strategy has a big place in the plot and the viewer expects some nuanced characters in order to truly understand their motivations. But come on, if you've watched the trailer or read the synopsis for Slime Taoshite, the anime doesn't promise that kind of things at all. As a matter of fact, this show is only trying to depict the life of the MC in a fantasy world where she'll encounter new friends and each episode/chapter will narrate a small "adventure" in their everyday life, which is always resolved by the end of the episode. Now I'm not saying this anime is enjoyable for everyone, it's a specitic type of anime, one where the plot won't have high stakes even in this fantasy world, and it's okay if that doesn't appeal to you, but all those reviews giving low grades to the anime because it was too "plain" feel innapropriate. All in all, Iv'e enjoyed watching Slime Taoshite, I rate it 8 out of 10 because while being a nice watch, some episodes did feel a bit slow at times, or some scenes/jokes were too cliché, this is clearly not a master piece, but it remains entertaining. If this anime sounds interesting to you, you can watch the first ( or 2 ) episodes : if you enjoyed them, you'll like the whole season, otherwise, you should probably drop because chances are you won't enjoy the rest of the season.

5/10 Every show I watch starts at a 5/10 and I reward or deduct points based on what stood out to me. it's a harem anime -1 it's a harem anime +1 it's unnecessary isekai -1 the colors on the characters is surprisingly striking in a good way. good use of bright colors +1 there's no "we have to kill the demon lord" recycled plot +1 there's no plot whatsoever. just a protag that collects more and more friends -1 This is exactly the kind of show I'll watch once and never remember or think about for the rest of my life. As I'm writing this, I've got season 2 on for background noise. Maybe the "cute girls doing cute things" isn't for me, but I don't see how this is any different from every other fantasy setting group of girls with a witch, and elf, and every other trope under the sun. It's not awful, but it hand-in-glove into the "meh" rating

Relaxing But Nothing Else I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level Is an anime that asks a question, can you handle no meaningful conflicts and everything being chill. well I cannot. From the first moments you know what the anime is about, chilling and not overworking yourself, and getting more family members, that is that the show. doesn't really have conflicts, there is stuff that happens, but there's no real tension to anything because the anime don't want that. The family dynamic soon gets stale, because the character don't really change they just are what they are, maybe the main character and the red dragon do a bit. Character design is not worth talking about, backgrounds are not worth talking about, animation is not worth talking about. the only thing that is worth mentioning is the amazing witch hat that changes size all the time. it is truly magic. It is chill that I will give it, But I like my chill anime to feel like they have work on it, like Yuru Camp and Momo. It's a cute distraction but nothing else.

(little spoiler on the setting/first episode) It's a small, unpretentious anime. It's an Isekai/slice of life: a woman (probably in her thirties) dies from overwork in a Japanese company, she is reincarnated, and since God has a soft spot for her, she (God is a woman, indeed) grants her immortality in her next life and reincarnates her in a quiet corner because our heroine's desire is to live peacefully forever. She arrives in a classic fantasy world, takes possession of a house seemingly left there by God just next to a village, and decides to do the bare minimum each day to live comfortably: so every day she kills about thirty slimes, the weak monster of the area, thus earning magic stones exchangeable for money. And there you go, she does this for 300 years, and 300 years later she realizes she has reached the maximum level and that she is actually super powerful. From then on, as the news spreads, her peaceful life will be nothing but a memory. The anime is quite pleasant and very relaxing: the concept is that the heroine will gradually gather around her, little by little, a family, and it's super cute. Apart from that, it's the classic slice of life/fantasy, but in a cute version. Neither more nor less. I'd rate the anime between 7 and 8/10. In 12 episodes, I enjoyed it, if there were more, it might have become a bit heavy because it's not very original after all.

I am going to try to keep this review short for any potential viewer of this show: The first 3 or so episodes are actually entertaining and showed quite a bit of promise, however, after that the quality of the content within each episode seemed to exponentially drop. While the first episodes are really cute and wholesome, the following episodes become boring, poorly paced, and outright "cringe" at times. It is a shame honestly, as the series initially had so much potential but it all seemingly went to waste. In all honesty its a miracle that I actually completed this show and I have no idea how or why I did so. If you are like me, episodes 4-12 are a complete waste of your time and I would highly advise against subjecting yourself to watching them.

I’m really glad I didn’t write a preliminary on this series, because my opinion of this show which I’ll call “300 years” drastically changed over the course of my watch time. Starting out, I really had high hopes. It was an intriguing concept and a clever character, though technically overdone. Even going into the first couple episodes I mostly enjoyed what I was seeing, but then began to see flaws crack in its facade. Unfortunately I was already in too deep that I had to see the whole series through, but had I known what was in store for the last half of the series, I wouldn’t have even began the show at all…at least I don’t think. I hate to start griping from the start. Usually I like to point out the positives first and then go in on what I just couldn’t deal with. “300 years” had three major flaws for me. First and foremost was the lack of stakes. Yes, a 300 year old witch who is nearly invincible was the initial draw, but it gets old after episode 3. Seeing an old lady that looks young just win against other supposedly stronger beings is just not entertaining for 12 straight episodes. What’s the point in watching sub par fighting animation when there’s not even a threat of danger. It was just monotonous and dull after Beelzebub was defeated. This leads me to my second flaw for the series, and it goes along with stakes. The flaw being too many characters with little to no reason for their existence. Now sure, I did enjoy the characters designs, and had they been introduced separately or at a slower pace it might’ve hit differently, but the show might as well been named, “witch of the highlands makes a new friend every episode”. It was comical how predictable the blueprint became after the red dragon moves in. It’s gone so far past what the show should’ve been that by the last episode, they ran out of ideas for characters….thus a heavy metal bunny girl is the last experience we’re left with. At this point I’m not even sure what the point of the series is, or what even is the purpose of all of these friends moving in? Why do we need to see this and what makes it any different than any other piece of media in existence? Finally, my third issue. This more of a personal gripe for me, but where are all the men in the series? Why are not just most, but all of the powerful beings in this world women? I don’t have a problem with female driven plots, quite the contrary in fact, I usually prefer the heroes be female. But there isn’t even a dynamic here. You at least need a competent male or two in your cast if you’re going to have a well thought out cast. A prime example of this being done well is Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Cafe. It’s a mostly female cast, but also acknowledges that there are competent males in the world as well like Faf-kun! It’s almost as if the creators didn’t want to outright insult the male gender so instead decided not to have them be present for any roles other than background merchant, drunk, or security guard. Again this is more personal observation, but it’s statistically impossible to avoid the other gender as often as these main characters do. All it accomplishes is making the world feel fake or less full. Like I mentioned earlier, great female character designs, but shoving more and more characters in our faces without either giving them real personalities or fleshing out the cast you already have, just makes everything monotonous. I still don’t know the difference between the slime daughters, the blue dragon and the red dragon, or the ghost and the energy drink elf. I’m sure I’ve forgotten someone, but that’s how little effect the extra characters had on me and just feel like cheap plugs to get to 12 episodes….particularly the heavy metal bunny girl, wtf. The only two characters I even really concerned myself with were the main witch, whose name eludes me and I don’t care to look up, and Beelzebub. I will say Beelzebub was done well and stood out amongst the crowd so I’ll at least give this show that. There’s not much more to say about this series. There are some funny elements, but the jokes are repetitive. There are some interesting plots, but those are repetitive as well. And lastly, great character introductions, but of course…more repetition. It’s like they made a plan for 3 episodes and told the writers “do this 4 more times” and just hoped it’d work. I have no clue what I watched or why I watched it. It wasn’t necessarily interesting after the 4th episode nor did anything of importance even happen. So would I recommend this show, probably not. Shows that lazily ship out generic plot A with generic characters A,B, and C shouldn’t deserve any real positive recognition. I will say I laughed a couple times maybe, and did like 1 of 2 characters, both from the demon realm. Other than that, it was just kind of a meh experience, probably should look elsewhere for entertainment.
