Their vacation is interrupted by the appearance of a mysterious girl named Yura and an encroaching darkness, forcing Rimuru to face a new danger. The animation was handled by Studio 8-Bit, with music contributions from TRUE, Saori Εnishi, ARCANA PROJECT, and STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION.
As one of the most popular isekai series, with the original TV anime holding an 8.13 score on MyAnimeList from nearly one million voters, the film's box office performance in North America adds another milestone to the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime franchise.
