Review of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 2: Digression - Hinata Sakaguchi

I quite disliked this episode, honestly. The special is titled "Hinata Sakaguchi"; it's not about or centred on her at all. This is just another recap, with none of the heart that existed in Veldora Nikki to back it up. While that recap episode at least had cute tidbits here and there in seeing Veldora and Ifrit's interactions, this didn't. It's another cut-and-dry recap, and we see barely anything of the character whose namesake it bears. It tells us that she's part of the Church and is studying up on Rimuru because she thinks he caused Shizu's death. And that -- literally about two or three minutesof screentime and dialogue -- is all we get of her. She isn't even the one narrating the recap.

Honestly, a fan is better off just pretending this episode isn't there, moving onward without wasting 20 minutes of your time for zero story or character.
