So, this was yet another attemp to make this a crude and dark anime?

Lmao, GS fainting was just stupid, he's going to recover and continue to slay goblins like a braindead wannabe hero in the next episode.

For a solid minute there I thought this was the end of our entourage, this is it, we're done. Next episode begins a new Goblin Slayer. Goblin Slayer was dying, the elf was about to be raped, I thought the priest girl got bit in the neck so I was certain she was done (the fact it was her arm instead feels a bit anticlimactic but whatever). That was some EDGE OF MY SEAT shit right there.

fucking insane episode all around, I loved it. I'm sure Goblin Slayer isn't dead, but that's still a hell of a way to end the episode. The two-minute bird's eye cam, a moment of reflection haunting chamber music plays: that was a powerful moment. It might have merely been a creative way to save budget; regardless of the reason, it was a haunting moment of reflection. It would be made even more powerful were it not far too early in this series for Goblin Slayer to genuinely be dead.

Actually liked this episode abit less than last one, it was still great, but that dramatic ending felt a bit too much.
White Fox did it much better with ReZero ep15.

LOL, they wanted to censor the elf BAD! xD

The music playing at the end credits was great though.

I'm still annoyed that other adventurers have been underestimating the goblins so much that there's literally a fucking goblin champion underneath their own city dwelling within the sewers system!

This episode was freaking brilliant! Once the doors have been closed, I know they just fucked up. Goblin Slayer did well to command his party to hold off for THAT long. But still, 1 wrong move by him and the whole party almost end up getting slain themselves. That' not the case though as Goblin Slayer saved the party after he turned 180 after getting hit really hard and become a straight-up badass, strangling the goblin champ with a hair and plucking out his eye like that. This giant bastard deserves more after what he did to the Priest, but that can't be helped since he's... Dying...

That bird eye scene was goddamn long, but then thanks to some good user in this forum pointing out that there's an actual version for that. I know that it's not as long as it was shown...

Well then. I thought this was the first episode, I was a bit confused, the 7 looked like a 1 to me. I haven't seen this anime before, I heard controversey about rape, so I prepared myself for it. It didn't seem that bad. And then that episode ended and I only noticed that this wasn't the 1st episofe.

The goblins were about to land some exquizite high elf girl, they were denied. The priestess made a cruel mistake, let's see how can they bounce back.
I have a roach problem in my apartment so watching this anime makes me happy, I wanna kill all the roaches Goblin Slayer style.

Woah, that was quite the hard battle. They almost got wiped. Wonder why he did not strangle that champion to death though but instead stole one of his eyes? I doubt that he died, it's his show after all lol

Intense and savage fight there, can't really blame Priestess for giving up considering she's still new to this, the traumas she has and seeing the big expert being beaten like that. Even though the cgi kinda sucks in this, that spin there was pretty cool. Only complaint would be that damn long canary eye scene which was completely pointless.

wtf for a moment I thought it was all a cliché-nightmare-scene of the Priestess because of the fear she got by the blinfolded girl's words but when she wasn't woking up I actually thought somebody was gonna die. Really unexpected. Amazing episode.

A bath fan service, そうか glad to see some fan service on the anime (A surprise to be sure but a welcome one)

They finally take on the Goblin Champion and I'll just say that battle was intense for the party and the goblins

And to see the party crumble was just straight-up sad and unpleasant to watch

Goblins Slayer got wrecked and got beaten up frankly but that redemption scene looks so awesome and the look in the eyes of Goblin Slayer is so Incredible

But in the end, Goblin Slayer used everything and collapsed was surprised about that T-T

The Sword Maiden was concluding to be right and I wish I hope it isn't I hope this isn't the end for the goblin-slaying silver-ranked adventurer...

Damn, the blonde woman with eye covering is so hot! She has light wounds all over her body, though. I wonder what had happened to her.

I just realized that all the characters here are unnamed.

The party decided to venture deeper into the ruins, and found an army of goblin led by a goblin champion. After the goblin slayer recieved that direct hit from the giant club, I thought they're all gonna die. It's the heaviest damage they'd suffer so far. The priestess girl is heavily wounded, the high elf's clothes was torn off, almost got raped, and the goblin slayer, I thought he was dead for good, if not for the health potion and the glowing red eye.

I don't know if it was a berserk mode, or dying will, but goblin slayer managing to strangle the champion and plucked its eye was so satisfying. They fled, though, and no doubt they gained experience, including the darn champion.

And the goblin slayer collapsed, leaked blood. Damn, did he died? The eye scene after that was so creepy. I wonder whose eye was it. Is it a goblin's? One of them was still alive?

This episode was pretty darn intense. I thought Priestess was going to have plot armor, can't harm the loli! Looked much worse when goblin champ bit her than it really was afterwards though. I checked out the credits roll in the non-CR version after watching on my CR account to see. Don't blame the studio!

Now this was an insane episode, damn.

Slayer gone real mad in this episode, dude was on some berserker shit. Liked the little backstory he had too. I feel bad for the priestess tho going through with that scary shit, she's an actual sweetheart so it hurts even more to see her in that pain. But hopefully all will get stronger and slay some more goblins here on out.

Who was even saying that Gorefest was a one time deal... and even if someone was then this episode proved them wrong. Goblin slayer's rampage in the end was terrifying, and again the shades of that first episode were there. Damn... hope Goblin slayer makes it out fine though.

So was there supposed to be credits or something during the over-a-minute-long shot of the canary's eye? Or is this some redo-of-healer type censoring where they made us stare at a fireplace for like two minutes... although there's nothing to censor really, so either there was supposed to be some form of credits over top it all, or it's just an odd artistic take. Who knows

I thought it was gonna be another routine goblin slaying mission, but damn, they almost got killed this ep. I got Akame ga Kill vibes from this and I like it!

Are we gonna see how he looks like behind all that armor? There's no way to treat him unless they remove it.

One of the best episodes of any anime I have ever seen. There are very high highs and very low lows. This episode is a roller coaster of emotions as you witness impossible feats be achieved... at very severe costs. It also ends on a cliffhanger that demands you immediately watch the next episode.

I finally had to drop it. I found myself fast forwarding while his pointless side characters were abused for pointless exposition. Prompting the question why I am still watching. Pointless story that faded out after a good first episode. Let it be forgotten.

Damn, the violence has picked up again! The feeling of defeat was reminiscent of the first episode and I'm sure the Priestess felt it (no pun intended). I wonder what the red eye signifies with Goblin Slayer? I mean it looks like when he gets really angry or in despair it lights up so maybe it is to symbolize that.

Anyways, I think Goblin Slayer will need more than 3 days to recover, unlike last time, and/or extra healing spells/potions. Priestess also got hurt pretty badly so she'll need recovery time too.

"What is that?"
"You don't know what a bird is?"
Was half-expecting him to say "not a goblin" instead tbh.

Priestess' visceral screams legit me some of the biggest chills I've ever felt watching anything. Dread in its rawest form.

Watching our guy struggle so hard to stab a goblin's corpse hurt to see too.

I was wondering why was everyone so mad at the bird eye credits but then I realized that in the original CR version (and other streaming services, even Japanese ones), this part was without credits and the ED came after that lol (I'm watching the BD version).

But yeah, one of the best episodes so far. I really felt that dread and despair (even tho I knew no one will actually die), and Priestess' screams were damn impressive. Got chills at that moment. And I really liked the special ED.
