Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown

It's more Goblin Slayer. It's not really better quality than the average goblin slayer s1 episode but not worse either, it doesn't reach the greatness of some of the great episodes sadly. You're not gonna start watching goblin slayer by watching this movie, but if u will then instantly you will be spoiled for the first 25 mins that recaps season 1. Goblins are slain, in pretty decent fashion but nothing too creative, at the end of the day this was mediocre-average but disappointing since i expect better quality and writing from a movie but this truly feels like a slightly extended episode with a ... recap. But a disappointing goblin slayer episode is still better than most of action anime out there.

I want to be the very best,
Like no one ever was,
Gotta stab them in the chest,
To kill them is my cause,

Goblins!
Gotta kill 'em' all~


[Review starts here]
... What does the goblin slayer do? He kills goblins. Whats this movie about? Killing goblins. Honestly, if yall are looking for a deep anime with a life lesson you are looking in the wrong place. All this movie is about is the goblin slayer slaying goblins. It's in the name (;-;) For my fellow manga readers don't keep your hopes up, there's a good chunk of the story missing.

Story - 4/10
Gore, Glory, Blood, and Rape. An expert about goblins, killing goblins, stabbing goblins, shooting goblins, burning goblins, torturing goblins, slicing goblins, and another team getting wiped out. Your average goblin slayer stuff. Not much plot besides that. As I said earlier a good chunk of detail is missing from the manga.

Art - 9/10
The art is the same quality as before. It's good, nothing bad besides a little CGI, same stuff before. CGI goblin slayer and CGI Goblin slayer once or twice. Bearable and doesn't last too long. The animation is well done. There is a part with superb animation in this movie which impressed me a lot. Especially when they are running down the mountain, that animation was very well done. Its one of the few really well-done camera angle changing done recently. The effects make the science more intense, and I've only seen it a few times.

Sound - 7/10
Gave it a 7/10 because it's good. Or that's what I thought. The sub is average, the background music pretty dope though. The ending theme was done by mili and has the same mood as before. I liked it.

Character - 8/10
They are literally the same as before besides the fact there is another girl who joins them because her whole party got killed and she wants revenge. I shouldn't have the say more.

Enjoyment - 8/10
Enjoyed it a lot since all I wanted to see was goblins getting slain. Haha, die goblins! Stab 'em. Leave me alone you wanna be otaku haters. Let me enjoy my shit in peace. I actually enjoyed it.

Overall - 7/10
I liked it, I'm not sure if you guys all will like it though. If you enjoyed Goblin slayer then you will probably enjoy Goblin crown.

Goblin crown is now on Crunchyroll
The Recap ends 25:00

The humanity has been at war with different kinds of monsters for far too long, however, people are now used to it. For those who want to take part in this, there is a guild of adventurers, where everyone can accept a quest and fight monsters for a reward. Among all those monsters, goblins are believed to be the weakest creatures to fight, which makes rewards for killing them quite minimal. Being alone, goblins are easy to kill, since they are not smart and lack any strategy whatsoever. However, among these stupid creatures there are goblins that are much more powerful, smarter and deadlier than ... their small and foolish brothers. Together, they form a power that is able to trouble even experienced adventurers. The problem is that only a few understand it. Goblin Slayer, Orcbolg, or Beard-cutter is an underappreciated silver-ranked adventurer, who, for some reason, only accepts goblin-killing quests. What is his story?

Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown focuses on the quest of the Goblin Slayer and his team to find a party of adventurers, as well as to investigate unnatural goblin activity in the region. Basically, one day, Goblin Slayer and his party members discover a swordswoman, who is a rape survivor. She, as every noble, keeps her pride in high regard and wants to not only return the stolen by the goblins sword, but also to take revenge on the monsters.

And that is the whole story. On top of that, the movie also shows a recap of the episodes that all TV anime watchers have already seen. The problem is that it makes the whole movie somewhat underwhelming, lazy, and even boring. The good thing, however, is that it shows more about the goblins: they are getting smarter and they are becoming more of a threat to everyone.

All in all, there is a clear difference between the TV series and the movie. The movie just feels a way too rushed. Funny thing is that even action scenes feel way too rushed. Nevertheless, it is still worth watching. However, do not expect something breathtaking out of this movie.
