GS : Have any champions or lords emerged?
Funny that just few days ago one got ranked up to lord by a slime.

Looks like Beard cutter's party is finally complete! :D

I love everyone in the party, they're all my favorite. Loved their reaction to the cheese. I worried the melted cheese was going to melt off the stick before they ate it. Lizard Priest's reaction was the best.

High Elf Archer is my new fave and she's gorgeous. She's the oldest member. She's their senpai. She's a badass with her archery skills. Nah, actually I like them all, they come as a package.

Holy crap SAO and Jojo's episode 3 threads have more posts than Goblin Slayer's (as it should be)! How long will that last? Probably not long at all.

Anyhoo, wow I hate ALL of these characters. I hated them in the books, but at least I had the luxury to steamroll through their substance-less character interactions or picture them in more inspired designs (or like Grumpy from Disney's Snow White in Dwarf Shaman's case). But in the anime, it's torture.

At this rate, it's going to take until the first half of the show to wrap up volume 1.

You are seriously wasting your time watching a show you think is torture..

Don't like it then drop it.

"Goblins come from the green moon even though there's no such thing as rocket ships.
Trust me, my sister said that. My dead sister is never wrong!" *cries internally*
- Goblin Slayer

What a terrible show. Besides that, I even haven't mentioned the eye sore with the bad CG every now and then. >_>

Without the fact that Crunchyroll messed up with that PG rating, this show would not get much recognition at all.

Because they use 3D if they do not even move goblin slayer, I already find it ridiculous and more if it is the protagonist who do that.

He doesn't literally believe Goblins comes from the moon. That CG is garbage though. They're better off just reusing art and not animating it at all tbh. It's not even like the scenes they use CG for are animation heavy either.

And this ep sure was better than the previous one
And didn't they say that goblins come from goblins impregnating girls from an other race or something which means that the underground kingdom is the only logical answear

Solid buildup episode!

Goblin Slayer sure hates Goblins with passion! He wouldn’t budge even after hearing that many demons might put on a rampage.
What was with the sorceress though, lol? Was it some roundabout manner of fanservice? Anyway, she managed to lift the spirits of our female protagonist so that’s good. The dinner scene with the new group was relaxing to see, drunk elf sure was adorable. We got a little more info on Goblin Slayer’s sister and I must say that was quite a shocking thought, goblins from the moon.

I’m looking forward to seeing the group kill some goblins next episode!

Even if I had the distinct sensation and lost too much time in the knowledge of the characters and in comic situations, in the end, everything has a certain goal: to deepen certain aspects. Preparation episode, slow, but not as boring as it may appear. Too bad that the quality of the drawings and the animations, are not excelled. The only part of the story in which I got really bored, is the one in which the witch speaks, what a bore!

Loved the episode. Character Development, we got to see the more human side of goblin slayer. Narrative Progression, the crew have been assembled and we are about to enter out first major dungeon. World building, learned a bit more about different races and nice tidbits like how lizard men don't rear animals and have thus never tasted cheese. Foreshadowing, the scroll.

All in all pretty great.

its refreshing that its a D&D story than a typical mmorpg story that fantasy and isekai anime use a lot
i have a feeling they gonna end it on the
but im not entirely sure

the entire party is here ,seems like there's no "Level" or "Stat" considering the priest is not entirely useless even though she's in porcelain rank ,loving goblin slayer simple intention to just commit genocide on the goblin race ,not just that but he also want to prevent goblin from destroying village so nobody have to experience what he did ,not a "save the world" motivation and i liked it a lot

"Before the Devil destory the world ,Goblin gonna destroy the village .the world is ending is not a reason to let goblin alive"

Do you expect every show to super-develop new characters in the span of 20 minutes or is it just with Goblin Slayer?

The Elf, Dwarf and Lizard adventurers are an interesting trio. While the Lizard has a nice calm and respectful personality, the Elf and Dwarf to like to try and take the mickey out of each other with just about anything.

Although seeing the Elf when she's drunk made her ridiculously cute though. We need more of that! =3

Her archery skills were pretty impressive as she took a unusual approach with the bow & Arrow to easily kill the two goblins and a follow-up arrow to take down the wolf. The next episode should be epic if we get to see the whole group in action! =D

People not getting why these characters are one dimensional lol There's a reason they don't even have names actual names.

I was wondering if that was the point though. They don't even get names. It's just Goblin Slayer, Priestess, High Elf, etc.


well some people have said that, if that's the case, then the High Elf is still going to be annoying, I just hope that either she dies soon or just leaves after this battle.

Could be a mix of both concepts. I also can see the similarities with the dragon crown's elf.

Kagyuu loves to make references, for example:
It is said that Priestess bases her design on the Dragon Quest's priestess



And Orcbolg is because of the sword called "Orcrist, the Goblin Cleaver" from the Tolkien's universe (not confirmed)

That's because High Elves tend to stay in their territories and are aggresive against other races and cultures. Think about the Deedlit concept of Lodoss even being the oldest of the party, her personality is that a teenager in love for Parn and totally ignorant about the outside world.

2000 is not too much for a High Elf, you can't judge by a human mindset.

Also... 2000 years of experience... living on a forest without contact with the outside world. High elves are famous for despising other cultures considered barbaric.

Its not logic, its just proper writing, unless the character was indoctrinated into such or never had any real experience. Bringing logic would be like "how could a single fire arrow set the whole tree from ep 2 on fire in seconds?", which I agree is a dumb thing to bring in.

Great episode but the next one will be epic!
I'm glad we have more different characters in the party, it makes it even more interesting.

Next episodes will be good, i can see that and i can't wait!

2000 years living under the standards of the elves...
For you 2000 years is a wise person, but for the elves is an infant.

Imagine that 2000 years elves thinks and behave like her, and have no contact with other races that mature at a "younger" age.

A simple but solid build-up episode. Much better to focus on introducing the new characters and showing the beginnings of their relationship as a party rather than just jumping straight in to more goblin slaying. Also, even though we know all about it already, it was still pretty damn funny to see just how one-minded Goblin Slayer is in that he won't even let the end of the world stop him from living up to his name.
