On Friday, September 27, 2024, officials announced a promotional video (PV) and visual following the conclusion of season 3, confirming the production of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime season 4 and the franchise’s second film. However, specific release dates were not provided.
The beloved anime That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is adapted from the Japanese light novel series created by Fuse (author) and illustrated by Mitz Vah. Fuse initiated the series as a web novel on the Shosetsuka ni Naro platform in 2013, after which Micro Magazine secured the rights to publish the light novels under its GC Novels imprint. The light novels have since inspired a manga adaptation illustrated by Taiki Kawakami.
