First "Tensura" 4DX Screening on March 20: Third Screening—Serial Code Card
The highly anticipated 4DX screening of "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Blue Sea" is finally set to begin on March 20th across 58 compatible theaters. This is a very big moment for fans because it’s the first time the series is getting the full 4DX treatment. Starting from March 13th, viewers can also look forward to a limited distribution of "Metallic Illustration Cards" which come with a special Maoryu serial code as part of the third visitor benefit phase.
Ever since its initial release on February 27th, Tears of the Blue Sea has been performing brilliantly at the box office. In just 11 days, it managed to attract over 400,000 viewers and crossed a massive 540 million yen in revenue. This clearly shows why That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is a must watch fantasy epic for both old and new fans. The upcoming 4DX version is going to be packed with environmental effects like actual rain, heavy storms, and splashes of water to match the "blue sea" theme of the movie. You can even feel the scent of the sea while watching!
Immersive Action and Exclusive Rewards
The action scenes are expected to be the real highlight here. When characters like Rimuru, Gobuta, and Suiryu engage in battle, the 4DX technology will make you feel like you are actually riding the boards on those large waves.

Talking about the rewards, the third edition bonus card features the movie's key visual on the front. However, the back side is what gamers will love—it has a serial code for the app game "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: The Founding Story of the Demon King and the Dragon." This code can be exchanged for a special character: ★4 [Demon King of Off Days] Rimuru Tempest.
