That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Watch Order
5 entries · · community-maintained
Also known as Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken, TenSura, Vita da Slime, TTIGRAAS
The That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime watch order starts with all 24 episodes of the first season from studio 8-bit, followed by a set of OVAs that expand Rimuru's world. Watch Episodes 1-24 first to get the full arc, then move on to the side content: Veldora's Journal, the comedic "Hey! Butts!" OAD, "The Tragedy of M?", and the three-part Rimuru's Glamorous Life as a Teacher OADs. These OVAs are lighthearted extras that sit best after the main episodes rather than between them, so you finish the core story before enjoying the bonus shorts. If you are wondering where to start, begin at Episode 1. This page lays out the correct order including all the OVAs so you can track the first season and its side stories in sequence, then continue on to later seasons once you have cleared this foundational run of the isekai.

How this order works
AnimeChrono watch orders put every season, movie, OVA, ONA and special for a franchise in chronological story order, the order the events happen. When an OVA or movie takes place partway through a season, the episode range is split so it sits where it belongs. Entries you can skip are marked optional, and each order says where to start. Release order, sorted by air date, is a secondary view once every entry has a date. The orders began as a hand-curated set, and episode counts and air dates come from AniList. Fans maintain the orders from there. Any signed-in user can edit one. Edits from trusted contributors go live right away and the rest are reviewed first. Every change is versioned and can be reverted, and each order shows when it was last updated and last checked.
