Goblin Slayer is an amazing anime portraying the unsung heroes that are out there trying to make the world a better place. Despite it's gory and sexual assault scenes that can make first time viewers of anime uneasy, it is a strong reminder of the terror and danger out the antagonists in the show: the goblins, and that, despite their horrible actions, nobody other than the goblin slayer is willing to fend them off. While other adventurers are off making a name for themselves fighting against the demon lord and dragons, goblin slayer is doing the dirty work, a menial job to make sure that the tragedy that befell him will not happen to other people. This is a reflection of the many forgotten brave souls who are helping to protect our daily moves, not fighting in a big war or killing terrorists, but police and fire fighter who out their lives on the line to keep their town safe. Onwards into the the episodes you see others who are affected by this invisible plague of zombies, those who survive yet are still scarred by the memories of what happened to them. It is truly a sad and compelling show. In all honesty, if you think that Golbon Slayer is no more than another gore filled sex driven shounen anime, then you're not looking deep enough into the true meaning of this story, that a deeper evaluation is required before you can determine otherwise.
