That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is getting ready to launch its next season next year, and has revealed new cast additions coming in the new episodes. Originally scheduled to debut this October before being delayed until January 2021 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the second season of the series will be introducing fans to a huge new roster of characters as Rimuru finds that his growing country will soon be facing more problems. Essentially making a huge target for the people in Tempest, Season 2’s going to have a lot going on.
