Muse Asia announced on Thursday that it will screen the anime film That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Scarlet Bond (Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken: Guren no Kizuna-hen) in theaters in Singapore and Malaysia. Muse Asia did not reveal a release date for the film.
The film opened in Japan on November 25, and ranked at #2 in its opening weekend. The film sold 225,000 tickets for 297 million yen (about US$2.14 million) on Saturday and Sunday. It sold 313,000 tickets for 416 million yen (about US$3.19 million) from Friday to Sunday.
The first television anime of Taiki Kawakami's manga, itself an adaptation of Fuse and Mitz Vah's light novel series, premiered in October 2018. Crunchyroll streamed the anime, and FUNimation Entertainment streamed an English dub.
The second television anime season premiered its first cours (quarter of a year) in January 2021. The television anime of Shiba's spinoff manga The Slime Diaries: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (Tensura Nikki Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken) then premiered on Tokyo MX in April 2021. After The Slime Diaries ended, the second cours of the second season began in July 2021 — for nine straight months of television anime from the franchise last year. Muse Asia streamed both the first and second parts of the anime. The anime will have a third season.
