    I think his mana doesn't come from the materials that he ate. Think it's Veldora inside of him that is basically his additional source.

    But there's a barrier between himself and Veldora, and they're supposed to be "attacking" or analyzing it from each side.

    I didn't think they could access each other's mana like that.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Maybe the mana stones need to regenerate, no Rimuru.

    Actually, I re-watched the episodes.. you may well be right.

    The cave was full of rare herbs and ores because Veldora is leaking magicules. Presumably if Slime at him, he'd become a battery. Slime did say he'd quarantine Veldora such that he doesn't die though, so he shouldn't be so ready to milk him of his magic.

    It's also possible that during that year he developped an ability to restore his mana levels from many sources, the slow ones taking up to 3 days.
    I can think of earth/air connection. Just being there he can charge.
    And maybe there's his new connection to all the goblins and direwolves. Naming them costs a lot, but then he gets energy from them.
    Its very possible that the scene where the goblinas carres him had other meanings than just useless worship.
    It's a common trope: Gods get power from their worshipers.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    The mana is Rimuru's, not from what he ate or Veldora. That's his default mana pool. OP? Yes. But that's what Slime Tensei is all about.

    I'm assuming there's some bleeding occurring.

    Like, I'm pretty sure Rimuru's super huge monster aura is actually Valdora's aura.

    Maybe those crystals were like Magic Seeds in Dragon Quest, where they increase your Max Mana. So now, because he ate so many, he has a massive mana pool that recovers when he does.

    Didn't Veldora name Rimuru? That'd explain his OP mana stuff.

    Yup, they named each other.
    So if there's any energy/mana route created between the namer and the named, Rimuru sure got an incredible namer and named in Veldora.

    I do think it's funny that evolving makes you hotter.

    So..eventually he's gonna have to eat some human in order to get the form he has in the OP right? I'm interested to see how that goes down.

    Considering his nature he wouldn't attack them in order to devour them. I guess he'll come across that chick when she's on death's door or something.

    I don't think the person he eats is necessarily going to look anything like his human form.

    When he mimiced a Dire Wolf, he took a generic Dire Wolf form, not an exact copy of the Dire Wolf he absorbed.

    So that form in the intro is just what HE looks like when he mimics a human, and is not necessarily going to look anything like the human that he absorbs.

    Probably a shapeshifting monster if I had to guess or a mimic of sort

    Direwolf was dead. So he can absorb someone who died just seconds/minutes ago.
    Not sure if it changes anything for busybodies.

    Or it can be following the same pattern as Veldora:
    He stores that someone in his stomach to delay the effects of an incurable disease or a curse.
    And since that someone probably isn't seal, Rimuru can access to all of their power/stats, or maybe he can give control to his physical body to that someone with his shape-shifting abilities.

    Wasn't his skill called Predator? He probably needs to really ingest and decompose, thus slay, something to gain its abilities. He wouldn't gain anything from Veldora who's in only for safekeeping. I'm not sure he could process a supreme monster like Veldora anyway for the time being.

    By the time we get there, Rimuru might get new skills, or his predator skill could evolve.
    It might also come as a joke at the time. After all every ep as tons of jokes on so many levels that I probably miss most of them

    Predator was initially intended for girls. Maybe one day it'll finally fulfil its purpose.

    Damn Rimuru, so OP I'm jalous.
    Being tactile, I admitt the elves scenes were pretty nice
    Show keeps stalling a bit, even if Rimuru is creating bonds, I need something more now.
