View in high quality
Since the first season of the anime was broadcast in 2018, there have been spin-off animations and theatrical releases, and the fourth season of "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" will be broadcast in April. In this special exhibition, you can look back on the history of Rimuru and his friends while following the story of the anime. When you step into the venue, you will be greeted by a large visual for the movie ``That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Tears of the Blue Sea'' which will be released on February 27th. As I walked down the aisle, I saw a mosaic art depicting the scene where Rimuru and Veldora become friends. If you look closely, you can see that it was created using cut scenes from the anime. There was also a corner where key visuals from the third season were collected.
The next area introduces the world view from the first to third seasons, along with cut scenes and lines from the anime. In the first area, there are exhibits centered on the people Rimuru has met, including Shizu, the race he has befriended, and you can reminisce about the story leading up to the establishment of the Federation of Jura Tempest. The second area will feature topics such as the relationship between the Jura Tempest Federation and other countries, and the process by which Rimuru became the Demon King. You could feel the change in Rimuru's state of mind as he decided to protect his friends from the expression on his face in the scene cut. There will also be a life-size panel of the Eight Star Demon King and an AR photo spot where you can take a commemorative photo with Rimuru. At the AR photo spot, you can take pictures with Rimuru on your head or wearing Rimuru's wings. Also on display is the ``Magic Continent World Map,'' which summarizes the Jura Tempest Federation and surrounding powers.
In addition to Rimuru, there are life-size panels of Benimaru, Gobuta, and other friends in the 3rd season area. In an exhibition that followed the story, Rimuru's efforts to uphold the ideal of a ``human and demon co-prosperity sphere'' were introduced. There is also a photo spot here, where you can enjoy taking commemorative photos as if you were being preyed upon by Rimuru. In the next area, the openings and endings of seasons 1 to 3 were shown.
The last section is "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Blue Sea". You can view the materials ahead of the theatrical release. Materials about the vacation-like costumes Rimuru and the others wear in the movie version, as well as materials about Yura, a character who holds the key to the story, have been released. "'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime' Special Exhibition" will be held until May 24th. Admission is free. In preparation for the release of the theatrical version and the broadcast of the 4th season, why not enjoy the worldview of the work once again?
