Tensura or That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, originally a light novel series is beautifully written under the realms of fantasy. It is undoubtedly an isekai anime that cannot be missed easily.
The story follows an ordinary Japanese salesperson who dies after getting stabbed by a mugger and later gets transported into a magical world full of orcs, goblins, elves, etc., as a slime.
With a plot as simple as this, it’s scandalous how well it works.
Author ‘Fuse’ has taken a lot of cues from the genre’s forerunners and played with its tropes to carve out the uniqueness of each character in the process.
The anime adaptation excels in delivering light-hearted humor with a beautiful blend of action, fantasy, and comedy, earning it a reputation as one of the highest-rated and most-watched isekai anime since its release.
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime has two seasons, a total of 48 episodes, three special episodes, and four OADs. TenSura’s filler count is only one filler episode and one mixed episode, making up 4% of the series.
Fillers are the episodes that are made to catch up with the manga. One can skip the fillers without any regret, and with only one actual filler, watching this anime is as easy as it can get.
Let me show you the filler and canon episodes, and you can decide if you can skip them or watch them.
Quick List
- Manga Canon Episodes: 1-3, 5-23, 25-36, 37-48

Conclusion
Watching a series containing filler episodes as low as one is like a dream come true to any avid anime viewer. Needless to say, filler episode 24 can be skipped without any cost or regrets.
I would recommend watching the mixed canon/filler episode because it is still adapted from the manga.
The second half of season two has concluded its airing, and with such fewer filler episodes, watching Tensura has never been this fun.

That Time I Got Reincarnated as Slime is a Japanese manga series written by Fuse and illustrated by Mitz Vah. It was serialized online in 2013 but was later shifted to Micro Magazine as a light novel in 2014. It currently has 21 volumes.
The story of Tensei Shitara Slime follows the journey of Satoru Mikami after he died and reincarnated as a slime in fantasy land. A slime is a creature that reproduces the form and powers of anything that it absorbs or eats.
Satoru starts eating all the magical herbs and crystals in the cave he woke up in and stumbles upon a dragon who had been captured and couldn’t move due to a barrier. Since both of them had nothing else to do, they befriend each other. The dragon accidentally makes Satoru a named monster, and Satoru promises him that he’d find a way to break the barrier. Hence, an unknown journey begins with this unusual friendship.
