| That’s not an actuate representation. Rou has saved the lives of people that he thinks might be of value to his group, this has included men and women of different races. If you hadn’t noticed, many of the men are totally proud arrogant racist jerks in the show, and only a few are worthy of having around, the women can be persuaded in other ways to follow Rou, but the men just get in the way. Also, he literally eats the flesh of others to gain abilities, so worthless people end up being eaten by him. In this last episode, men that he had thought might be of use, didn’t pan out, instead of killing them, he gave them to the elves, but others that showed potential and loyalty were allowed to join his group. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |

it's an isekai power fantasy where the mc has to create a harem of women so he can constantly get laid. in the most recent episode he straight up r*ped the 2 human women he'd defeated when in the past he'd made it a point to get consent and not make them uncomfortable. consistency isn't really the point
| @Cayusashi Even just going by the anime, and ignoring what has been omitted, this is false. In the latest episode he references how he used aphrodisiac drugs on the elves, commenting that the humans reached their "limit" much quicker. It's also been shown previously with the elves that he uses sex as a tool to make female prisoners more submissive/compliant, which is how he gets the elves to abandon their pride and wear the "earrings". None of this could qualify as consensual, they're either under the influence of drugs or there's an element of coercion present, given they are prisoners. |

Well, I did watch the latest episode before writing this post. Seeing some men to be finally included into the team definitely made me felt a little better about this anime. It's just that the scene where he "flirted" with the female humans who he just caught got on my nerves. Like, why he need to do that just to make them obey? There are other ways to do it, just like what he done to the goblins in the early episode.
I don't hate the anime and I like it honestly. But I just grow tired with the "capture men and women but at the end only women alive" bullshit the director/author keep showing us each episode.

| @hrodebert99 Technically, the male elves who won their mock battles were spared, he just rigged the results so that no females were killed. As for why he uses sex on the female prisoners, besides the fact it's enjoyable (for him) and effective in "humbling" them so to speak, there's one key aspect that's been omitted so far from the novels. |

fair point. I was just trying to say that Rou wanted the girls to at least think they're consenting. because you're right about consent not being able to exist due to their imprisonment and other circumstances. in the recent episode he dropped all pretenses of manufacturing consent
| @Cayusashi Yeah, that's just because there's a lot of detail that was omitted, but the elves and the humans from the battle are slaves in the truest sense. He's already shown mercy by not killing them, and he's not a sadist or torturer, but he is the chieftain and will use his "resources" however he sees fit. I think people got the wrong idea about him saving the human girls just because of a) how unspeakably cruel the conditions of the previous slaves were, and b) the fact he hadn't truly begun to embrace his monster nature yet. Of course, there's been plenty of evidence before all the grape that he's a very morally grey character, unless you're just discounting how casually he murders people or lets others die. Also, his grape is way less horrific and traumatizing, because all grape isn't the same, but that's naturally a controversial subject. |

This is hilarious 😂 That would make season 2 and season 4 way better |

@LostSpectre Alright, that omitted part you mentioned make clears up the whole thing. I know goblins are breeders by nature. It's just that Gobrou as a character seemed very inconsistent in my opinion in the anime. At first, he prevented his species from intercourse, which I assume there won't be grape thing then later did it himself. As the story goes by, he collect mostly females for whatever reasons he never stated. I do know it's possible he just a horny guy who wants harem but I wish the anime could portrayed that part more clearly.
| @hrodebert99 Yes, it would be more helpful if such things weren't half censored for anime, but I think it might have caused an uproar. |

Lmao!!! Rou would crush him, but I do like Goblin Slayer as well. |
