What happened to the art? What happened to the budget? What’s with this awful pacing?

Better stick with the manga then

Finally, time to slay some goblins again. Been forever since I've seen my man, the legend, the goblin slayer in action. First episode definitely made me wanting more, though that red-haired boy is a bit annoying so far.

the art has really gone downhill and a lot of the voices are different, its pretty jarring if you just rewatched the original. I also don't really appreciate the idea of splitting the party to help some random jerk

I rewatched S1 and the movie before this episode, and the new visuals is jarring. That rookie mage is super annoying, he's like the worse ill-fitting character in this series to date. Even the rookies who got killed in S1 were way less annoying than this brat, who's no doubt a sibling to the mage who got wasted in S1, I'm guessing since they look alike.

I don't mind S2 being less dark in tone than S1, but this rookie mage and feel of things is kind of overboard. It feels like an immature isekai/fantasy anime now, rather than the gritty realism of S1. I'm going to guess it's the studio change, and them not knowing how to do it, so they did it like any other isekai/fantasy instead of what S1 was actually like. They should have stuck with the original studio to keep it the same.

Also, why did GS say the landlord was cow girl's father? I could have sworn in S1 cow girl said it was her uncle.
