    The Storm Dragon Veldora was
    sealed by Unlimited Imprisonment.

SIGN    Unlimited Imprisonment
[00:05] Narrator
    To break that seal, Rimuru ate Veldora.
[00:09] Narrator
    They both began the process
    of analyzing the seal,
[00:11] Narrator
    Veldora from the inside and
    Rimuru from the outside,
[00:15] Narrator
    with the goal of setting
    Veldora free someday.
[00:19] Narrator
    After gaining several new
    skills and leaving the cave,
[00:22] Narrator
    Rimuru met the Goblins,
[00:24] Narrator
    and he ended up vowing to protect
    them from an attack by Direwolves.

SIGN    Episode 3: Battle at the Goblin Village
[02:09] Rimuru
    Looks like I shouldn't expect to
    find many who can fight Direwolves.
[02:14] Rimuru
    They all look too scrawny and beat-up.
[02:21] Rimuru
    Talk about pressure...
[02:24] Rimuru
    Everyone, do you understand our situation?
[02:26] Rigur
    Yes!
[02:27] Rigur
    We are prepared for a life-or-death battle!
[02:32] Rimuru
    No need to get all worked up. Just relax.
[02:35] Rimuru
    Think only about doing the best you can.
[02:39] Rimuru
    I didn't mean to sound that cool...
[02:44] Rimuru
    But first, take me to where the wounded are.
[02:52] Elder
    We did all we could for them, but...
[02:56] Rimuru
    That's deeper than I'd imagined.
[02:58] Rimuru
    Did their claws and fangs
    do that much damage?
[03:01] Rimuru
    Well, might as well try it...
[03:04] Elder
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[03:10] Goblin
    Huh? I'm...
[03:14] Elder
    Y-Your wounds...
[03:16] Goblin
    They're healed!
[03:18] Rimuru
    I guess it never hurts to try!
[03:20] Rimuru
    I never thought eating him and throwing
    all those potions in my body at him
[03:24] Rimuru
    would be so effective!
[03:27] Rimuru
    These healing potions really work!
[03:33] Rimuru
    Next! And next!
[03:35] Rimuru
    Since I ate all those hipokute
    herbs, I've got plenty to spare!
[03:38] Rimuru
    I'll heal 'em all!
[03:42] Elder
    Y-You are magnificent, Great Rimuru!
[03:49] Rimuru
    That's the last of the wounded.
[03:51] Rimuru
    Now, then...
[03:53] Rimuru
    We'll build a fence.
[03:55] Rimuru
    Fortify the village's defenses!
[03:57] Elder
    Right.
SIGN    Great Forest of Jura
[04:08] Boss
    It's a fine night.
[04:10] Boss
    Veldora's protection has
    vanished from this forest.
[04:14] Boss
    We have nothing to fear any longer.
[04:16] Boss
    Tonight, we will destroy the Goblin Village
[04:20] Boss
    and create a foothold here
    in the Great Forest of Jura!
[04:25] Boss
    We will rule this forest!
[04:31] Boss
    Our claws can tear apart any monster,
[04:34] Boss
    and our fangs can chew any monster to pieces!
[04:56] Boss
    Hah!
[04:56] Boss
    What good will such a flimsy fence do?
[05:02] Ranga
    Father...
[05:07] Boss
    A slime?
[05:09] Rimuru
    Turn back now, and we won't take any action.
[05:12] Rimuru
    Leave this place at once!
[05:14] Boss
    Insolence! No mere slime can
    order around us Direwolves!
[05:19] Boss
    Trample down that fence!
[05:20] Boss
    Spill the blood of those lowly Goblins!
[05:39] Boss
    Threads?
[05:40] Rimuru
    That's my skill, Steel Thread.

[05:43] Boss
    This is your doing?
[05:45] Rimuru
    That's right!
[05:46] Boss
    A puny monster like you dares do this?!
[05:48] Boss
    I will squash you!
[05:50] Ranga
    Father!

    Hear me, Direwolves!
[06:42] Rimuru
    Your boss is dead!
[06:45] Rimuru
    I'll give you the choice: submit or die!
[06:53] Rimuru
    Yikes...
[06:54] Rimuru
    What if they go the "We'd rather die than
    submit" route and attack all at once?
[06:59] Rimuru
    I wish they'd just turn tail and run...
[07:04] Rimuru
    Oh! Predator!

    I will allow you to leave this place!
SIGN    — Menace —
[07:53] Rimuru
    Come on, run away already!
[07:59] Rimuru
    It's not working? They still want to fight?
[08:09] Wolves
    Our pack yields to you.
[08:12] Rimuru
    Huh?
[08:13] Rimuru
    They could have just run away...
[08:16] Rigur
    U-Um...
[08:17] Elder
    D-Did we win?
[08:21] Rimuru
    Yeah, looks that way.
[08:24] Rimuru
    It's good that there's no
    need for fighting anymore.
[08:27] Rimuru
    Yep, yep. Nothing beats peace.
[08:32] Rimuru
    And so the battle at the Goblin
    Village ended remarkably easily.
[08:38] Rimuru
    But...
[08:46] Rimuru
    What now?
[08:47] Rimuru
    Who's gonna look after not only the
    Goblins, but all these pups, too?
[08:54] Rimuru
    I guess their numbers are
    about the same. Then...
[08:58] Rimuru
    Okay, listen up!
[09:01] Rimuru
    So, I'm going to have you all
    pair up and live together!
[09:07] All
    Pair... up?
[09:10] Rimuru
    Do you understand?
[09:12] Elder
    Great Rimuru, what does "pair" mean, exactly?
[09:16] Rimuru
    It means to form groups of two.
[09:18] Goblin
    Groups...
[09:19] Wolf
    ...of two?
[09:23] Rimuru
    Good!
[09:24] Rimuru
    Yesterday's enemy is today's friend!
[09:26] Rimuru
    You're all to work together and get
    along as friends from now on! Got it?
[09:31] All
    Yes, sir!
[09:32] Rimuru
    Help each other out, and make it work.
[09:37] Rimuru
    That settles things for now...
[09:39] Rimuru
    So, um...
[09:42] Rimuru
    What's going to be important now
    is food, shelter, and clothing.
[09:46] Rimuru
    We should form teams to hunt
    for food, build houses,
[09:49] Rimuru
    and strengthen the village defenses.
[09:53] Rimuru
    We'll start with...
[09:56] Rimuru
    What was his name again?
[09:58] Rimuru
    Wait, do they even have names?
[10:01] Rimuru
    Hey, what are all of your names, anyway?
[10:03] Elder
    We monsters do not normally have names.
[10:07] Elder
    Even without names, we can still
    communicate our thoughts to one another.
[10:10] Rimuru
    Oh, really?
[10:13] Rimuru
    But it's more convenient to have names,
[10:16] Rimuru
    so I'd like to name you all. Is that okay?
[10:20] Elder
    N-Name us?
[10:22] Elder
    A-Are you certain?
[10:24] Rimuru
    S-Sure.
[10:29] Rimuru
    Why are they so excited over something
    as simple as getting a name?
[10:38] Rimuru
    Okay, we'll start with you.
[10:40] Rimuru
    Hmm, let's see...
[10:42] Rimuru
    What did you call the son
    you had who died in battle?
[10:46] Elder
    Rigur.
[10:48] Rimuru
    Rigur, huh?
[10:50] Rimuru
    Then you'll be Rigurd.
[10:52] Rimuru
    Rigurd!
[10:54] Rigurd
    Thank you so much! Rigurd! I am so moved!
[10:57] Rimuru
    R-Really?
[10:59] Rimuru
    I just picked it because
    it had the same sound...
[11:02] Rimuru
    You'll inherit your brother's name: Rigur.
[11:05] Rigur
    Yes, sir!
[11:06] Rigurd
    I'm so grateful that my son has been
    allowed to inherit Rigur's name!
[11:11] Both
    Thank you so much!
[11:14] Rimuru
    Where the heck are these
    reactions coming from?
[11:21] Rimuru
    You're Gobta.
[11:22] Gobta
    Y-Yes, sir! Thank you, sir!
[11:25] Rimuru
    You're Gobchi.
[11:28] Rimuru
    Gobtsu.
[11:29] Rimuru
    Gobte.
[11:31] Rimuru
    And you're Gobzo.
[11:33] Rimuru
    These names are getting
    more and more careless...
[11:35] Rimuru
    I feel bad seeing them so happy.
[11:38] Rigurd
    Um... We truly do appreciate
    you giving us all names, but...
[11:44] Rigurd
    We are aware that your
    magical power is immense,
[11:47] Rigurd
    but are you sure it's all right
    to give all of us names at once?
[11:53] Rimuru
    Well, I don't see any problem.
[11:54] Rigurd
    Well, if you are certain...
[11:57] Rimuru
    Who's next?
[11:59] Rimuru
    You'll be... Haruna!
[12:01] Haruna
    Okay!
[12:06] Rimuru
    That takes care of all the Goblins.
[12:09] Rimuru
    Next is...
[12:12] Rimuru
    He's the son of the Direwolf boss, isn't he?
[12:15] Rimuru
    I wonder if he holds a grudge against me...
[12:18] Rimuru
    Actually...
[12:20] Rimuru
    They don't seem to be
    holding any grudges at all.
[12:24] Rimuru
    Hmm...
[12:25] Rimuru
    Wolf, fangs...
[12:30] Rimuru
    Wind... Storm...
[12:33] Rimuru
    I know. I'll give him my family name.
[12:36] Rimuru
    Tempest...
[12:37] Rimuru
    Tempest Fang...
[12:39] Rimuru
    Storm Fang...
[12:41] Rimuru
    Ranga...
[12:42] Rimuru
    Oh! Ranga! I like that!
[12:46] Rimuru
    All right! Your name is Ranga!
SIGN    — (Storm) (Fang) —
[12:49] Ranga
    Ranga...
[12:51] Rimuru
    I think he likes it.
[12:54] Rimuru
    Wh-What's going on? My body...
[12:57] Ranga
    Great Rimuru?!
[12:57] Rimuru
    Everything... is getting... dark...

[13:09] Great Sage
    Estimated time to full recovery: three days.
[13:12] Rimuru
    I used up too many magicules?
[13:14] Rimuru
    How...?
[13:20] Rimuru
    I couldn't move, speak,
    or sense my surroundings,
[13:25] Rimuru
    but I was conscious.
[13:33] Rigurd
    It must have been because he
    named so many of us at once...
[13:37] Rimuru
    Apparently, giving names to
    monsters uses up magicules.
[13:42] Rimuru
    I guess that's why Rigurd was so worried.
[13:45] Rimuru
    Is that common knowledge among monsters?
[13:47] Rimuru
    You should've said so!
[13:58] Rimuru
    Then, three days later...
[14:06] Rimuru
    Full recovery!
[14:09] Haruna
    Oh, Great Rimuru!
[14:11] Haruna
    Good morning!
[14:12] Rimuru
    Y-Yeah...
[14:14] Haruna
    You seem to be all better.
[14:17] Rimuru
    Who's this?
[14:18] Haruna
    I'll go get Elder Rigurd.
[14:21] Rimuru
    Uh, okay.
[14:24] Rimuru
    Did this village have a girl that cute in it?
[14:27] Rigurd
    Great Rimuru! Have you awakened?!
[14:30] Rimuru
    Oh, Rigurd!
[14:31] Rimuru
    That woman who... was... just...
[14:35] Rimuru
    Who are you?!
[14:37] Rimuru
    I am Rigurd.
[14:39] Rimuru
    What happened in the last three days?!
[14:41] Rigurd
    It's because you gave us names!
[14:44] Rimuru
    Just from that?!
[14:45] Rigurd
    Becoming a monster with a name
[14:48] Rigurd
    raises one's rank as a monster
    and causes one to evolve!
[14:53] Rimuru
    I-I see...
[14:54] Rimuru
    So that's why you were all so
    happy just to be getting names.
[14:59] Rimuru
    No wonder that sucked my magicules dry...
[15:05] Ranga
    Master, allow me to express my
    utmost joy at your recovery!
[15:10] Rimuru
    That horn... The star on your forehead...
[15:13] Rimuru
    You're Ranga, right?
[15:14] Ranga
    Yes!
[15:21] Goblins
    Great Rimuru!
[15:32] Rimuru
    There's Rigurd...
[15:35] Rimuru
    And Rigur...
[15:38] Rimuru
    And Gobta...
[15:40] Rimuru
    Well, you didn't change much.
[15:44] Goblins
    Great Rimuru! Great Rimuru!
[15:46] Rimuru
    It's not so much like they evolved.
[15:48] Rimuru
    They're like totally different monsters.
[15:51] Great Sage
    The male Goblins have evolved to Hobgoblins,
[15:53] Great Sage
    and the females to Goblinas.
[16:06] Rimuru
    Ranga, if I recall, you were
    the only Direwolf I named...
[16:11] Rimuru
    so why did all of the Direwolves evolve?
[16:15] Ranga
    Master, all of us Direwolves are as one.
[16:20] Ranga
    Our brethren are all connected.
[16:23] Ranga
    Therefore, my name has
    become our clan's name.
[16:27] Rimuru
    Huh... So your entire clan
    evolved through a shared name?
[16:32] Ranga
    We are no longer the Direwolves.
[16:36] Ranga
    We are the Tempest Wolves!
[16:39] Rimuru
    Tempest Wolves...
[16:41] Rimuru
    Well, good for you!
[16:48] Ranga
    Master!
[16:50] Rimuru
    Can't you show a little consideration?!
[16:53] Ranga
    I-I'm so sorry!
[16:56] Rimuru
    You can change your own size?! That's handy!
[16:59] Rimuru
    Well, the evolving isn't so bad.
[17:02] Rimuru
    The problem is what to
    do about food, shelter,
[17:05] Rimuru
    and clothing to sustain both
    the Goblins and the Wolves...
[17:12] Ranga
    Master!
[17:29] Rimuru
    Right, it took five minutes
    for all of you to quiet down.
[17:35] Rimuru
    They didn't get my best joke?!
[17:38] Rigurd
    Great Rimuru, what did you mean by that?
[17:42] Rimuru
    F-Forget about it.
[17:45] Rimuru
    As you can see, we're a huge family now.
[17:48] Rimuru
    So to avoid problems, I think
    we should set some rules.
[17:52] All
    Rules?
[17:54] Rimuru
    There are three rules.
[17:55] Rimuru
    I'd like you to uphold
    them, at the very least.
[17:58] Rimuru
    First, no attacking humans.
[18:00] Rimuru
    Second, no fighting amongst yourselves.
[18:04] Rimuru
    Third, no belittling other races.
[18:06] Rimuru
    That's it.
[18:10] Riguru
    Sir!
[18:11] Rimuru
    Yes, Rigur-kun!
[18:13] Rigur
    Why aren't we allowed to attack humans?
[18:15] Rigurd
    H-Hey! Rigur!
[18:17] Rimuru
    It's all right.
[18:19] Rimuru
    The reason is simple.
[18:21] Rimuru
    It's because I like humans. That's it!
[18:24] Rigur
    I see! Now I understand!
[18:27] Rimuru
    Huh? You... understand?
[18:29] Rimuru
    Really?
[18:33] Rimuru
    Um, so, listen... Humans live in groups.
[18:36] Rimuru
    If you mess with them,
    they could retaliate in a big way.
[18:40] Rimuru
    And if they came after us in earnest,
    I doubt we could handle them.
[18:43] Rimuru
    Besides, getting along benefits
    us in lots of ways, anyway.
[18:49] Rimuru
    Any other questions?
[18:51] Gobta
    Me!
[18:51] Rimuru
    Gobta-kun!
[18:53] Gobta
    What did you mean by
    "no belittling other races"?
[18:56] Rimuru
    Well, you've all gotten
    stronger by evolving, right?
[18:59] Rimuru
    It means you shouldn't let that get to
    your head and push weaker races around.
[19:04] Rimuru
    Don't make the mistake of thinking
    you're better than them.
[19:06] Rimuru
    You don't want them getting stronger
    themselves and retaliating someday, do you?
[19:10] Gobta
    Got it, sir!
[19:13] Rimuru
    That's about it. Do your
    best to follow those rules.
[19:16] All
    Yes, sir!
[19:17] Rimuru
    Also...
[19:19] Rimuru
    Elder Rigurd, I declare you the Goblin Lord.
[19:24] Rimuru
    The lord of the Goblins!
[19:26] Rigurd
    Lord?!
[19:28] Rimuru
    Lead your village well.
[19:33] Rigurd
    Yes, sir!
[19:34] Rigurd
    I, Rigurd, accept this
    responsibility on pain of death!
[19:39] Rimuru
    Good. I'm counting on you.
[19:42] Rimuru
    Frankly, I was just dumping the job on
    him. I didn't expect him to be so moved.
[19:50] Rimuru
    I then gave jobs to all the Goblins.
[19:54] Rimuru
    I assigned a team to keep watch
    on the surrounding area...
[19:58] Rimuru
    and a team to gather food.
[20:00] Rimuru
    It doesn't look like there'll
    be any problems with these two.
[20:04] Rimuru
    The problem is...
[20:07] Rimuru
    The team that builds houses, and
    the team that makes clothes.
[20:10] Rimuru
    The "shelter and clothing" part
    of "food, shelter, and clothing."
[20:13] Rimuru
    I wouldn't call that a house.
[20:17] Rimuru
    I can't do any more than
    basic handyman stuff,
[20:19] Rimuru
    but I worked in general contracting,
    so I know good from bad.
[20:22] Rimuru
    And this...
[20:26] Rimuru
    You don't need to be a general
    contractor to figure it out.
[20:30] Rigurd
    This is most embarrassing.
[20:32] Rigur
    Forgive us.
[20:34] Rimuru
    And as for your clothes...
[20:40] Rimuru
    I-I think they're a little too revealing!
[20:44] Rimuru
    That's not necessarily a bad thing, but...
[20:47] Rigur
    There is no one here with
    the skill to make them.
[20:50] Rimuru
    Huh?
[20:51] Rimuru
    I-If you can't make them,
    couldn't you get some from somewhere?
[20:54] Rigurd
    There are some with whom we have
    attempted to trade a few times.
[20:59] Rigurd
    Aside from clothing,
    they are also quite skilled,
[21:02] Rigurd
    so they may know how to build houses, too.
[21:04] Rimuru
    Hmm...
[21:05] Rimuru
    Well, we're getting nowhere this way,
[21:07] Rimuru
    so maybe we should go see them.
[21:09] Rimuru
    Who, and where, are they?
[21:11] Rigurd
    They are the Dwarves,
    and they live in Dwargon.
[21:14] Rimuru
    Dwarves!
[21:15] Rimuru
    You mean the famous
    masters of metalworking?!
[21:18] Rimuru
    Now I have no choice but to go!
[21:21] Rimuru
    I'll try going to Dwargon.
[21:23] Rimuru
    Rigurd, can you look after
    the village while I'm away?
[21:26] Rigurd
    Yes, sir!
[21:27] Rigurd
    Leave everything to me!
[21:38] Rimuru
    All right, I'll see you later!
[21:40] Goblins
    Goodbye!
[21:41] Rigurd
    Safe travels!
[21:43] Haruna
    Come back soon!
[21:49] Rimuru
    And so I left the village
    to go and meet the Dwarves.
[21:53] Rimuru
    I'm told this Dwargon place
    is a pretty big city,
[21:57] Rimuru
    and it even has a king.
[22:00] Rimuru
    I'm a little... no, I'm really excited!
