The headline puts it lightly, this series takes the "Friendly Monster" notion to a whole new level, "several monster races working together for a better future". That aside our Protagonist Satoru Mikami/Rimuru Tempest is a loveable, yet believable character, who is a logical thinker (though that trait is lost when he's around Elves) & quite merciful to those who choose peace over destruction, but he's no pushover. The other races in the series each have their own unique quirks, capabilities & powers (even standard humans) & can easily back Rimuru should the need arise. (Although one 'particular' support character can be a bit endearing when viewers first see him). The series is nicely paced for its 23 episodes (with three bonus filler episodes for total of 26). (Bonus point from me for being one of the few anime to have Lizardmen as allies instead of enemies). Its well worth the watch & I look forward to more of the series from "8-Bit Studios" should they choose to continue the series.
score 9/10
