Analysis: Gobuta and Yura Feature in New Tensura Movie Bonus
The excitement around the latest film is just not stopping at all. As a special second bonus for those visiting the theatres to watch That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Blue Sea, the production team has announced a really nice gift. Starting from March 6th, visitors will be able to get one of four types of newly drawn photo-style cards. These cards are being distributed randomly, so you really have to be lucky to get the one you want. It is a very sweet gesture for the fans who are going to support the film in its second week of release.
Record-Breaking Box Office Performance and Visual Highlights
If we look at the initial numbers, the movie is actually doing solid business. In the first three days alone—from its big release on February 27th to March 1st—the film has already attracted 225,235 viewers. This has resulted in a gross of 301,174,000 yen at the box office, which is quite an achievement. This massive response just shows why That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is a must watch fantasy epic for any anime fan out there. The newly drawn photo-style cards are very special because they feature scenes of Rimuru and his whole group enjoying a temporary vacation. This happens right after the grand opening festival of the Demon Federation (Tempest). One specific card that is getting a lot of attention shows Gobuta and the shrine maiden Yura having a very friendly conversation in Cayenne Country. It is a very nice moment that fans will definitely want to keep in their collection.
Celebrity Reactions and Industry Support
The hype is not just among the common public; even many famous celebrities have shared their comments on the film. About six big names from different fields have sent in their thoughts.
