Just caught up. Man, this is dry. Municipal service is tedious, and Rimuru-sama is the most best-est. Those were my takeaways. It's interesting enough in theory, but wholly unsatisfying on a week-to-week basis.

Episode 52
- - -- - - --
Somehow the show still managed to jam in an episode where nothing but meetings and talking heads happened.
An episode? I think that's 3 in a row now.
I don't know why Rimuru doesn't just absorb Valdora's excess energy.
With the previous ep, I was already thinking it's quite brave to rely on the series' fame so much that all the eps of the new season have been nothing but meetings and talk, but now we still got one more. Just my personal opinion, but at least I found this a bit more interesting since we know less of these folks and the situation in their country than the Jura forest. Not to mention Rimuru, Veldora, Diablo, and a bunch of other characters are so powerful pretty much nothing can threaten them, at least that we know of, but it's not the same for other countries.
I hope the next episode will be something else already. It should be, surely.
I hope Rimuru tears Hinata piece by piece for being instrumental in boobsuit's death.
Then he can just heal her and make her a harem member.
Peace.
Okay that was an alright meeting. At least it wasn't another Rimuru meeting.
The old farts seem fairly petty.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Episode 54

I was wrong. This season will end before the meetings end. The next episode title seems to indicate something else, but it will be just more talks, no doubt about it.
God, Rimuru is such a genocidal monster.
"Keep everyone alive if you can. But you're allowed to kill if you're going to be killed."
His bloodlust simply can't be sated.
Episode 55

Blessed Luminus, the meetings are over! Of course a part of this episode was wasted on "Japanese food is the best in the universe, banzai!", but it was still better than the endless meetings. At least the restaurant scene did serve a small role in making Hinata appreciate Rimuru a bit more, with the same going for her friends.
Luminus really should do some spring cleaning. Her house is really dirty.
I legit love scenes of people marveling over Rimuru's infrastructure.
That shit triggers my SimCity endorphins.
These Seven Something old men did quite the job at manipulating these guys. I wonder how weak they are, because they're most certainly going to get some violent backlash once this misunderstanding gets cleared up.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
It's tough to evaluate them when their primary way of doing things seems to be manipulating others. Of course the Clown Troupe also relied on manipulation heavily, yet they actually can fight well as well. Unlike with the Clowns, with these seven geezers we haven't seen them fight, or really do anything but appear and disappear in a fancy fashion. That being said, for them to be so respected, they have to be among the best the country has. Or at least they once were. Hinata's position seems roughly equal to theirs, but Hinata must have more official authority as a part of her job, whereas the seven geezers might not have a specific job, but they have more spiritual authority among the people.
It's pretty weird how that group of seven doesn't follow Luminus's plans, by the looks of it, though. Since Luminus doesn't want to antagonise Rimuru any further, yet the geezers want a full war.
