That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 3 Anime's 3rd Promo Video Previews Opening Theme

The official website for the third season of the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken) television anime began streaming the third promotional video on Thursday. The video previews STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION's opening theme song "PEACEKEEPER."

The anime's 48.5 episode will air a week earlier than the season's premiere on March 30. The episode will recap the Demon Lords' Banquet (Walpurgis) with commentary by Diablo and Veldora.

The season will premiere on April 5 at 11:00 p.m. (10:00 a.m. EDT) in the "Friday Anime Night" programming block on the NTV channel and 29 affiliates. It will also start on BS11 on April 6 at 10:00 p.m. NTV will also air two compilation specials (with newly recorded narration) of the first two seasons on April 3 and 4.

The show will air for two continuous cours (quarter of a year) for a half-year run.

Atsushi Nakayama is returning to direct the series at 8-Bit, and Toshizo Nemoto (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Visions of Coleus) is now overseeing the series scripts. Ryōma Ebata is returning as character designer, and Hitoshi Fujima from Elements Garden is returning from That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Scarlet Bond and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Visions of Coleus to compose the music.

The first television anime of Taiki Kawakami's manga, itself an adaptation of Fuse and Mitz Vah's light novel series, premiered in October 2018. Crunchyroll streamed the anime, and FUNimation Entertainment streamed an English dub.

The second television anime season premiered its first cours (quarter of a year) in January 2021. The television anime of Shiba's spinoff manga The Slime Diaries: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (Tensura Nikki Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken) then premiered on Tokyo MX in April 2021. After The Slime Diaries ended, the second cours of the second season began in July 2021 — for nine straight months of television anime from the franchise in 2021.

The That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Scarlet Bond film opened in Japan in November 2022.

The three-episode That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Coleus' Dream anime debuted in Japan on November 1 with all three episodes. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime with subtitles and an English dub.
