Fans of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime have something exciting to look forward to. A brand-new action trailer has been released for the upcoming movie, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Azure Sea. The short video gives viewers a fresh look at the battles, characters, and emotional moments that will appear in the film. It also shares a preview of a brand-new insert song that will play during an important scene.
The second movie in the popular slime series will open in Japan on February 27, 2026. This makes it the next big chapter after the first film, Scarlet Bond, which came out in 2022. Many fans have been waiting to see what adventure Rimuru and his friends will face next. The new trailer shows that this story will mix beautiful ocean views with fast and intense action scenes.
One of the biggest highlights of the trailer is the insert song titled “Harmonics.” The song is performed by STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION and ASH DA HERO’s vocalist ASH. The music sounds powerful and energetic, matching the exciting battles shown in the preview. Fans of the anime may already know STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION, as the music project has created several songs for the series before. This time, ASH joins in to bring a new style and strong vocals to the track.
The movie is based on the light novel series written by Fuse, which started the entire franchise. The books became very popular and were later turned into a television anime. Now, the story continues on the big screen with this second film. The director of the movie is Yasuhito Kikuchi, and the animation is being produced by studio eightbit, the same studio that worked on the anime series. This means the art style and character designs will feel familiar to fans.
In this new story, Rimuru Tempest and his friends are invited to visit a special resort island. The invitation comes from the Celestial Emperor Hermesia of the powerful elven nation known as the Magi Dynasty Salion. At first, the trip seems like a relaxing vacation by the bright blue sea. The trailer shows calm beaches, shining water, and happy moments between the characters. However, things quickly change when a mysterious woman named Yura appears. Her arrival brings trouble and starts a brand-new incident that threatens the peace.
The action scenes in the trailer are fast and dramatic. Viewers can see powerful magic attacks, intense sword fights, and serious expressions on the characters’ faces. The bright blue ocean becomes the background for dangerous battles. The trailer makes it clear that this movie will have both emotional moments and large-scale fights. Fans can expect strong teamwork, surprising twists, and challenges that test Rimuru’s leadership.
Another important piece of news is that Crunchyroll has announced plans to release the film in theaters worldwide, except in most Asian regions. While the exact international dates have not yet been shared, this means many fans outside Japan will get a chance to watch the movie on the big screen in the future. This global release shows how popular the slime series has become around the world.
The first movie, Scarlet Bond, was well received, and expectations are high for this second film. This new trailer focuses heavily on action, giving fans confidence that the movie will deliver exciting scenes and strong music. With a new song, a mysterious character, and a beautiful island setting, the story promises both adventure and emotion.
As the February 2026 release date in Japan gets closer, more updates are expected. For now, fans can enjoy the new trailer and listen to a preview of “Harmonics.” The second slime movie looks ready to bring another big adventure to theaters, filled with magic, friendship, and thrilling battles by the shining azure sea.
