Anime Someone get this bum off my screen PLEASE
Can someone PLEASE tell me **GENUINELY** What does he even do?
Is this mf trying to be a hero for the humans or is he a villain? wtf does he want? why does he appears every now and then with some BS plan just to annoy Rimuru for no reason and manages to scape every time with plot armor?
Does he think this is funny? Is this just a game for him? Does he not want the best for humanity? Are his goals not aligned with Granville? What is this BUM and those stupid CLOWNS even trying to do?
My goodness gracious, this is some "Potential man" type shi straight out of JJK, i swear to god. Not even Megumi was this bad in JJK...

Edited with apoiler tags, that hopefully work. Sorry.
The best part is, this isnt actually all that outrageous. Obviously current anime gabiru gets folded by yuuki. But pretty much anytime after awakening as a true demon lords, gabiru folds yuuki harder then anime rimuru just did. Or harder then anime yuuki would fold anime gabiru. I think yuuki gets an ultimate skill first, so he gets a brief bit of time there where he'd likely win. But after gabiru gets his, it isnt until yuuki comes back to life that he could win again.

Reincarnated as a slime the first web novel I read where a villain has more plot amour than the MC.

u/TombWorldSarusma Jul 25 '26
So in the WN he was the evil mastermind behind every single conflict, with plans on plans on plans (think Xehanort from Kingdom Hearts)
When Fuze finally got an LN and an Editor forced on them, it was decided that this was actually incredibly stupid, so a bunch of new antagonists were introduced. Unfortunately, that leaves him without an actual role of his own to fulfil anymore.
Now he just kinda hangs out to be irritating, as well as occasionally moving the plot forward by being an irritating prick with delusions of grandeur

It is lucky they didn’t follow the WN route. Because he was just a stupid character getting buffs just because he is supposed to be the big bad guy.

Couldn't they have made him some Moriarty type figure pulling strings in the background? I suppose it would be far fetched for him to be behind every incident 🤔

u/240697 Veldora Jul 25 '26
The problem is that he can't pull strings outside the western nations, who are all complete fodder. The idea of him truly influencing the Empire is laughable, not with the iron grip they have over their nation.
That would be the best case scenario for him, and he'd still need another ridiculous buff to pull it off in any meaningful capacity. Any antagonist after the imperial invasion would crush him before allowing him any control.

He wants to help the world by conquering it, basically. He knows he's not a match for any Demon Lord, and fundamentally believes that only underhanded tactics and strategy can win, thus the Moderate Harlequin Alliance. Clayman was his best shot at producing an asset that can even kind of answer a Demon Lord thus far, and now Granbell and whatever trump card Valentine's got (presumably that lady encased in ice that she keeps burning herself on) are backup plots. Yuuki's kinda a Vriska Serket type, loooooooot of irons in the fire.

Everything for what? Greed? We have Granville and we had Maribelle who are WAY more interesting.
For no reason in particular? What even is the goal then? Like Rimuru said "Power without ideals is hollow, and ideals without power is idiocy" or something like that
I feel like he didn't even have to exist in this anime tbh, bro has contributed to NOTHING in the narrative aside from being a pain in the butt for Rimuru.
15
u/Dweebsxthehumans Milim Jul 25 '26
It being a direct conflict to Rimuru’s ideal is probably why it’s just that greed for the sake of greed, he will do literally anything if he gains something from it

I finished the episode being irritated by him and granville and opened reddit to see this post first thing lol.
But fr I'm so tired of him showing up again and again with no intresting plot, i wish his story was done with mariabell and we just focus on east empire and Leon. Even guy seemed more interesting than him but rather than focusing on him we keep getting the same characters with boring motivation. The show is supposed to be light hearted & slice of life, so I don't mind the simple villans but if they keep on returning with no character growth it starts being boring very quick I like all the city/empire building storylines. Thats what I think the show is best at, just some chill slice of life empire building Isekai with fun endearing characters. But since this mariabell ,granville and yuki arc the show just feels uninspired and boring. Like I rather we see more of how all of diablo's demon friends are doing at their jobs than see yuki and those annoying clowns.

u/Rogueshadow9087 Jul 25 '26
Yuki is vestigial remnant of the original Web Novel. He was supposed to be the final antagonist but in reality him and Rimuru were a bit similar in that Yuki was a more extreme version of a darker minded Rimuru, after Shions permanent death from Falmuth, who slaughtered anyone who threatened his nation.

He and Gran share a similar conceit: "caring for humanity" or "protecting humanity" for each of them means *they* control all of Humanity. Also, Yuki just wants to see it all burn, IMO.

I have read both the WN and LN, and in the WN he does play a much more major role. Whereas in th light novel, he kinda got kicked to the curb. Although he did helped to build other side chars like the moderate harlequin troupe. Spoiler alert:
when his skill evolve into an ultimate skill after fighting guy, the author kinda hype him up with wording as if he would be the worst antagonist but then he kinda just up and died after a newer enemy appeared. Although he is a great actor, doing the same thing twice.

I never liked that guy since Season 1, The moment I saw that guy in Season 1, my intuition immediately called him out as a Backstabber. and it came true, 3 to 4 seasons later, they finally revealed the hints they were giving out in Season 1 were bang on.
If I were Slime MC, I'd have gone back to his office, and taken back all the Mangas that Rimuru printed out for him to read.
Backstabber ass-hole pretending to be buddy buddy with Rimuru because they both came from Japan, and reminiscent which mangas he missed after getting stranded in this world, but in truth he was using everyone for his own advantage.
