As the creator and staff of the anime haven’t revealed the canonicity of the film That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Scarlet Bond in the light novel series, the chapters season 3 will be based on remains a mystery.
If the movie continues from where the second season left off, it will be easy to anticipate what comes next for Rimuru and the Tempest federation.
Here’s how the upcoming film describes the story:
"A long-running conspiracy is swirling over a mysterious power known as “Queen” in Raja, a small country west of Tempest. When a slime who evolved into a Demon Lord named Rimuru Tempest crosses paths with Hiiro, a survivor of the Ogre race, an incredible adventure packed with new characters begins. The power of bonds will be put to the test!"
