LatestRimuru said he wanted to do a first shrine visit of the new year, so the citizens of Tempest built a shrine. But what deity is housed at this brand new shrine? Rimuru thought it must be Veldora, the guardian of the Forest of Jura, but everyone else says it's a shrine to Great Rimuru, so he ends up enshrined there... Thus their fun New Year's comes to an end, and Rimuru closes his diary. What will this new year bring? Tomorrow is sure to be packed with enough events to fill a new page...
Even in another world, lives aren’t always on the line. There’s plenty of work to be done, from feeding the community and forging the items the community needs; as well as plenty of play …and hijinks throughout! Join Rimuru and friends as they kick back and enjoy their daily lives.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This spinoff deliberately inverts isekai power fantasy by showing Rimuru's administrative grind—turning godhood into municipal paperwork and harvest festivals.
The 'iyashikei' (healing) subgenre exploded in 2020s anime as counterprogramming to intense seasonal slates; Slime Diaries rode this wave perfectly for burned-out fans.
