I used to love this manga when I was an angsty teen but looking back, man this is stupid af. I don't mind dark and twisted yaoi but this doesn't make any sense at all. Ang bobo lang.
Does anyone have a link to the light novel?
Not all volume have fan translation as there is official translation (vol 1 -vol 10): https://yenpress.com/9780316414203/that-time-i-got-reincarnated-as-a-slime-vol-1-light-novel/
Fan translation (vol 6 - vol 11):

Fixed MTL translation (vol 12 - vol 17): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14LqRkU1ayeIYi8MaKInDVF5LdqwVqehC
I recommended to buy official translation as fan or fixed MTL translation usually have different preference in the characters name in translation so it might be confusing. Especially when this story have a lot of characters.
so there is no fan translation for vol 2- vol 5 ?
I think there is none for vol2 - vol5. Maybe because the official translation already catch up or the anime already cover it, At least for now, i could not find it.
I recommend going to your local kinokuniya (their international stores carry Japanese titles) and getting a copy in English. They're out till 10 volumes as of now. A worthwhile investment and some side stories included too!
Good idea. The easiest way is buy the official translation.
Thanks for answering ~
Question, been a while since I last read this but did glasses guy and the pink haired dude ever got developed?
nope,, sadly
IIRC, didn't the author write another piece aside from this? It seems that it's gone from the list.

The characters are, how should I say this, they do not feel natural.
....um, define natural?
...coz, nothing in the manga world, nor in the anime world is natural enough to be called natural....
They have poor characterization and there's something a bit off with the character traits. Chinese manhwa often suffer from this problem.
That's the point I believe. Nothing about this webtoon is natural and it appears off because of its bizzare pacing, parodic clichés, and comedic purpose.
I do see your point - though faced with this "uber cool" vampire and his (shocking!) spirit animal-form...... (￣∇￣")
Natural... wouldn't the natural course of action be a stake through the animal... a toothpick. A toothpick should suffice.
I guess you would refer to the feeling of "I can't empathize with any of those characters" - for when I really try to...*grabs toothpick*
I wouldn’t expect much characterization from a super natural and COMEDY comic. Especially not when the vampire turns into a hamster when sucking blood.
And I do t think they have poor characterization when looking at the type of serie it is, like you can’t really expect “a serious seme who never smiles nor laugh at jokes - ah he’s so cool~~”
Then natural pffffffft this is a story where a VAMPIRE TURNS into a hamster then turns back through kissing like the frog prince lol
geez. this is a comedy. and it seems to be the satire type. you clearly are still expecting something from this manga and most likely will not get it or will not happen in the way you want. I think that is the author intentions. I see them laughing at the fans who take this hobby too seriously lol
It's a fucking supernatural vampire romantic comedy jackass, they're not supposed to seem "natural" they're supposed to be two things, hot and funny.
Am I the only one who thinks that the author really wants to go with the AkitoraxRogi pairing but since she has already introduced Hachi earlier in the series, there's nothing she can do but to just focus on the flashback to really ship Akitora and Rogi? It's like introducing Hachi feels like a mistake on her part given how majority of the story doesn't even include him.
Very true but I feel like after we finish the back story we r gonna get a lot more content with hachi with Akitora being the problem in their relationship. But I really want the AkitoraxRogi to be endgame.
Me too ╥﹏╥
TBH, I used to love this series but after rereading this, I became kinda irritated with the Rogi and Akitora. And now that the latter's starting grow feelings on him, the more that I'm starting to hate this story cause I'm pretty sure that the ending will feel as if it was rushed if the author decided to go with the HachixRogi route given how the author basically instilled the AkitoraxRogi shipping.
Yeah, tbh... I didn't want their "love" (or whatever it is they have) to be mutual. I didn't want the happiness. Like, having read the part where Rogi rapes Akitora's child sort of put me off for the rest of the series, so I can't really feel the tragedy of Rogi's life. And I don't like Akitora. I'm not sure how long it's going to take her to actually finish the story at this point...
Voted wrong. Yes you can see my vote.
Ugh, I'm sick of the flashback. Can't we just go in the current story and develop the MC's relationship to his potential partne?. Cause if the entire story will be 90% Akitora and Rogi, the ending will not be satisfying if the author will go the MCxHAchi route cause the entire plot did not revolve around them.
How are we going to possibly connect to the current story if the author is too focused with the flashback without even developing the current story?
I think Scarlet Beriko really adores Rogi, so she's taking her time with this manga. We're only on chapter 9, and I don't think that's even a quarter of the whole manga. I'd rather have a well-developed story with a lot of flashbacks rather than a poorly-paced, hastily written one.
Tangina! Shuta ang pangit. The seme is trash but god do I equally hate the uke!
HAHAHA
