Updated 2026: Streaming data re-verified. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is available on Crunchyroll for subscription streaming in the US, with individual seasons available for digital purchase.
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime follows Satoru Mikami — a middle-aged office worker who dies and respawns as a slime with unusual abilities in a fantasy world. The series earns its following by being more thoughtful than it sounds: the early comedy and exploration give way to genuine nation-building, faction politics, and a cast of memorable monsters who chose Rimuru as their leader. Multiple seasons and spinoff films extend the story. This guide covers the main TV anime seasons.
| # | Service | Type | Availability / Countries | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Crunchyroll | Subscription | United States and major international markets | Subscription streaming with full season access and sub/dub support |
| 2 | Apple TV Store | Digital purchase / rental | United States and many international markets | Viewers who prefer digital ownership to subscription |
| 3 | Amazon Video | Digital purchase / rental | United States and many international markets | Prime Video storefront purchase/rental option; not necessarily included with Prime |
Catalog availability varies by region and platform. Verify your country’s access before subscribing. If the series is locked in your region, a VPN may help.
Where to Watch That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Online
Crunchyroll
Crunchyroll is the confirmed subscription streaming home for Slime in the US and most international markets. All main TV seasons are available subtitled, with the English dub available where licensed. Crunchyroll maintains the most organized access to the full season run, including the later arcs, which is where the series gets more ambitious. Previously, Funimation held partial rights for this title — that content migrated to Crunchyroll when Funimation was retired and merged.
- Best for: Full season run, sub and dub support, anime-first browsing
- Watch out for: Some countries see fewer seasons or different dub availability; check your regional Crunchyroll catalog before assuming full access
Apple TV Store (Buy / Rent)
Individual seasons of Slime are available to purchase or rent digitally on the Apple TV Store in the US. This is a pay-per-season storefront option — not an Apple TV+ subscription. Amazon Video and Google Play Movies also carry the series for digital purchase if you prefer those platforms.
- Best for: One-time purchase; viewers who prefer ownership over a recurring subscription
- Watch out for: Purchase cost per season adds up compared to a single Crunchyroll subscription for regular anime viewers; strictly a buy/rent option, not free
Amazon Video (Buy / Rent)
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is also available through Amazon Video in the US as a digital purchase/rental option. This is separate from Prime subscription streaming; it works like buying or renting episodes/seasons from the Prime Video storefront.
- Best for: Viewers who prefer Amazon’s video library or want to keep anime purchases inside their existing Prime Video account.
- Watch out for: Availability, pricing, and season packaging can change. Check the listing carefully before buying.
Why No Other Subscription Services?
As of 2026, Crunchyroll holds the main subscription streaming rights for Slime in the US. Netflix has carried the series in select Asian markets (Japan and others) at various points, but US Netflix access is not confirmed for the full series in 2026. Crunchyroll is the reliable subscription path for Western viewers. Digital purchase is available as an alternative via Apple TV Store, Amazon Video, and Google Play.
Can a VPN Help?
If Slime is unavailable in your region on Crunchyroll, connecting to the United States is your clearest option — the US Crunchyroll catalog has the most complete coverage. NordVPN is reliable for Crunchyroll connections and maintains fast server performance for streaming. Get NordVPN here.
Final Word
Crunchyroll is the subscription home for Slime in the US and most of the West. If you don’t want a subscription, buy it outright on Apple TV or Amazon. For the full database of legal anime streaming options, browse the JPBound Where To Watch Database.
