What I wanted from this was some slice of life in the city of tempest and additional characterisation for the cast, which the main show doesn't find time for.
Does it achieve this? For the most part.
The joke about shion's bad cooking was already milked dry in the main series and is just blatantly beaten to death here.
Many jokes don't really land, but the overall vibe is relaxing, invites you to stay and puts a warm smile on your face.
I like what they did with Milim, but most impressive to me were the moments with Geld, which weren't just jokes, but also a bit somber, yet hopeful, subtle but poignant, exploring the emotional scars of what the orcs went through.
The artwork differences didn't really bother me (in fact some of the smoother facial features suited the relaxed tone of the show very well) and it does almost exactly what I wanted it to. Recommended to anyone watching the series who can stomach some slice of life with 4koma skits.

Presentation (and funnily enough, artwork) is different from the parent series. (i.e. if you had a filler episode it wouldn't feel like this). Definitely closer to standard short-comic SoL but at times it feels there is lack of continuity as if this is just a 4-koma of random stuff. Not exactly an issue.
I almost wanted to say I enjoyed this more than the main series, but the main series has epic moments so it wouldn't be fair to say that.
Requires watching the main series or you will be very confused. Even then, it's not a must-watch SoL. But hey, it's still an ok SoL, I'll take it.

Slime Diaries follows a lot of the characters doing daily activities in a relaxing setting. You'll need to have watched the 1st season as a lot of characters are already introduced in these side stories. If you're a massive fan of this series, then check this out; however this is slow and does not connect to the main story line. For fans only.

Not as good as the parent series, but this is a nice change of pace that takes the antics seen in the OVAs and turns them into an entire series.
If you want to see what daily life in Tempest is like when they're not going from one altercation to the next, this is worthy of your time.

male, , disintegrationDisintegration is the ability to decompose matter to its particles., free-form shapeshiftingFree-form shapeshifting is the ability to change one`s bodily appearance, form, and structure in any way that the user desires, without being restricted to a limited number of forms. This is contrasted to fixed-form shapeshifting, the ability to switch one`s bodily appearance, form, and structure between two or more predetermined forms, while being restricted to picking only from among those forms., lithovoreCan consume and digest inorganic materials such as metals, plastics, or stone., magicMagic is the art of purportedly manipulating aspects of reality either by supernatural means or through knowledge of unknown occult laws., slimeA slime is a jelly-like, mucus-like monster often found in fantasy works., talking animalTalking animals are a common theme in mythology and folk tales, as well as children`s literature. Fictional talking creatures often are anthropomorphic, possessing human-like qualities but appearing as a creature. An animal that only knows how to say its name (for example, 99.9% of all Pokemon), are not talking animals.

male, , androgynousAndrogynous characters are ambivalent or indeterminate in terms of gender, and can exhibit both masculine and feminine physical traits all at once. It is frequently difficult or impossible to say whether they are really male or female from direct visual observation., blue hairThe character has blue hair., clone attackThis ability involves making multiple copies of oneself, usually for use during combat. Unlike making illusory copies, however, the clones here are actual physical copies, be they manifestations of energy, split off from the original, or copies made of stone, clay, or another material. As they are solid copies, there is no "which one is the real one" game to be played here: They`re essentially all "real", and all equally dangerous., demon lordA demon lord, also called demon king, is the ruler of either all demons or a large group of them. Demon lords generally also rule over other evil monsters, which are commonly seen as "lesser" in contrast., disintegrationDisintegration is the ability to decompose matter to its particles., magicMagic is the art of purportedly manipulating aspects of reality either by supernatural means or through knowledge of unknown occult laws., regenerationRegeneration is a supernatural ability to repair great extents of damage incurred as a result of, for example, combat or accidents, and generally to do so fairly quickly. This may include, for example, the replacement of destroyed limbs and organs in a matter of minutes or less. It is not to be confused with the slow, limited, natural damage repair ability that most living organisms have, which does not provide for replacement of limbs and organs, quick or otherwise., wingsno description set

secondary cast
male, demonIn Western lore, demons are often described as minions from Hell, generally known to attack humans and feast on their flesh or possess the bodies of those with weak souls. In Eastern lore, on the other hand, they are generally supernatural, often but not always malevolent beings who can be more mischievous than actually evil, or simply supernatural spirits of no specific alignment., facial markingsno description set, fair skinFair skin is a naturally occurring range of skin colour that is lighter than the average for humans, but not light enough to be considered white. Ethnically speaking, a reasonable real life metric for fair skin is the skin colour of people normally said to be "white"., fire magicMagical application of the fire element.
Usually strong against living beings, such as plants and animals, but easily fought by employing water.
Also usually entails immunity against heat., orange eyesThe character has orange eyes., physically strongIn comparison to the norm, someone who is physically strong possesses superior, sometimes even unnatural, physical strength. Said strength usually allows them to win fights, or at least to last longer; stronger people are also normally able to withstand harsh conditions more easily than the rest, and even do things as simple as carrying heavy weights around. This tag also applies when a race is stronger than others (think the Sayajin), as long as said weaker races are also a part of the cast., real hornsAny size and number of bone appendices, appearing at the top of the character`s head (or other similar body part when applicable). Does not include fake horns., short hairShort hair is hair from (but not including) bald, up to (but not including) shoulder-length hair. This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length.

artificial life formno description set, cleverA clever or smart person is generally understood as having broad knowledge and the sharpness of mind required to put that knowledge to good use, especially when applying rational thought to long-reaching decisions, with the broad knowledge leaning more on the smart side and the sharp mind on the clever side. Unlike a genius, the clever person may be skilled, but only mundanely so, and in contrast to a cunning person, a clever person is not characterized by being sly or apt at surreptitiousness., data entityno description set, eidetic memoryThe ability to recall an image from memory with high precision for a brief period after seeing it only once, and without using a mnemonic device., indifferentIndifference or apathy is a lack of or a suppression of interest, concern, excitement, motivation, and/or passion. This may range from not caring enough to seek to get involved on matters that don`t directly concern the indifferent individuals to not caring about life itself, be it other individuals` lives or even their own., logicalThis character is capable of reasoning or of using reason in an orderly cogent fashion., pragmaticThis person acts according to the philosophy that states that the meaning of something is to be found in its practical consequences and that impractical ideas must be rejected. As such, they most often act for the results that are to be achieved, sometimes disregarding the issues that lie in the means required for such results.

They are most commonly canine teeth, as with warthogs, pigs, and walruses, or, in the case of elephants, elongated incisors., yellow hairThe character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.

male, butt monkeyThe character who is always the butt of the demeaning joke or the "put him through hell" plotline. For whatever reason, the Butt Monkey seems to walk through life with a permanent "Kick Me" sign attached to their backs, invisible to them, but all too visible to the rest of the world. Nothing ever goes right for this character, and if something bad is going to happen to someone, chances are it`s going to happen to them. Long story short, it sucks to be the Butt Monkey.
--tvtropes, clubA club is among the simplest of all blunt weapons. A club is essentially a short staff, or stick, usually made of wood, and wielded as a weapon since prehistoric times. Most clubs are small enough to be swung in one hand, but two-handed variants exist. Various kinds of clubs are used in martial arts and other specialized fields, including the law enforcement baton. The mace is a descendant of the club, typically made of metal and featuring a spiked, knobbed, or flanged head attached to a shaft., geniusA genius is someone possessing extraordinary intelligence or skill, normally to a degree associated with the achievement of unprecedented insight, and especially when demonstrated through a creative or original work in a field of human knowledge. Such ability is well beyond the realm of an ordinarily clever person, who instead applies a sharp mind to mundane levels of skill., goblinA goblin is a monstrous creature from European folklore, first attested in stories from the Middle Ages. They are ascribed various and conflicting abilities, temperaments and appearances depending on the story and country of origin. They are almost always small and grotesque, mischievous or outright malicious, and greedy, especially for gold and jewelry. They often have magical abilities similar to a fairy or demon., green skinThis beings skin has a green hue., grey hairOf a color intermediate between black and white, as of ashes or an overcast sky.
Refers to hair that is this color., mohawkThe name of a hairstyle in which, in the most common variety, both sides of the head are shaven, leaving a strip of noticeably longer hair in the center. It is associated mostly with the punk rock subculture., pointy earsWell they are ears... and they are pointy... what`s more to say there?!

A goatee can coexist with sideburns so long as they do not connect; should the sideburns be connected from side-to-side via the goatee, they would cease to exist individually and form a single beard instead. A goatee connected with the moustache is a circle beard., grey hairOf a color intermediate between black and white, as of ashes or an overcast sky.

female, , bikini armourBikini armour is a female-exclusive fantasy subset of skimpy armour], functionally used as armour, that only covers the breasts and pubic area, leaving the user scantily clad with cleavage, midriff, thighs, and legs exposed, sometimes but not always containing metallic material. It is usually worn by attractive female warriors in fantasy worlds to maximise exposure of body parts, often for sexual appeal., cuteness fangA cuteness fang is a single prominent canine tooth that suggests a cat-like and energetic nature or a state of excitement. Cuteness fangs generally belong to the upper jaw and are more common on females. They tend to not exist in-universe and go unnoticed by characters. A cuteness fang should not be confused with fangs, which are multiple prominent canine teeth, as found in vampires or various animals, or a misaligned tooth, which is a facial misfeature with no relation to personality traits., leg garterGarters are narrow bands of fabric fastened about the leg, usually used to keep up stockings, and sometimes socks. They can also be worn as a standalone fashion item.
