That magician girl doing that sexual breathy voice, sounds like she's having an asthma attack now.
I get what you're doing but that's too many breath. Geez.

Anyway, I was about to drop this anime... But luckily it wasn't a job for a beast other than a goblin. That was close.
I feel sorry for that red haired girl, she obviously likes goblin slayer; but I don't see it working out between them.other than that, it was nice to see them focus on aspects other than goblin slayer

Oh please, stfu. They're switching around the LN too. The manga is following the LN, and this anime isn't. Of course people are bitching.
They are probably rearrenging the arcs so they can finish the show with him taking off his helmet.If that is the case then there isnt much of a problem

Relax.They will propably rearrange the arcs


I know, I know when i calmed down and thought about it, it actually makes more sense that arc would be left for last as it is only one cour, i let my initial response and emotions get to me...I can't take it back now, i just hope it is the case.
smh everyone needs to first think before they start shittalkin . Well at least you calmed down unlike some other ones here and btw i have a conflicted feeling with this as well but anyone who read the tokyo ghoul manga and watched the anime has suffered worse it literally cant get as abyssmal as studio clown

Did they skip it?
I hope they do not.
Perhaps, they just want to introduce Goblin Champion first before they introduce Goblin Lord.
I mean Goblin Champion will be introduced in the Sword Maiden Arc before they show up again under Goblin Lord's banner.
It's just one man theory though...

No goblins on this episode, huh?

Goblin slayer did something other than slaying goblins, and he sure helped those Porcelains get back their sword what a guy and became a stellar observer.

I wonder what's going on with that request, but I think maybe it has to do with the Priestess.

I don't think they skipped the attack on the farm arc, I believe they just switched the order of events.

The farm battle is an event that happened on its own, as if someone rolled a dice now that I think about it. Weird feeling.

Anyway, that it happens episode 5 or 11 is not an issue. However the arc is quite dramatic and would be suited to close a 12 episodes adaptation.

What I think is that we will get the Sword Maiden arc, filler, then Farm Battle at the end.

It would be very silly for them to cut it entirely, unless the producer is confident he can do better.

Guys calm down, is a good episode, this chapter was revealed in light novel vol. 4 but is chronologicaly happens in vol. 1, and is true they will skip the goblin lord arc next episode, but that is not mean that will not adapted and the end this season.

The rat's face is somehow funny when adventurer clubbed it to death. Also really brave of them to go there just the two of them. When he was clubbing the bug to death, the girl adventurer had a look of her face like Aqua from Konosuba when traumatized. One of the best episodes for me. xD

Oh... Guild Girl now admits she likes GS. She also blush when thanking him.

I liked this episode of fleshing out the characters quite a bit too. It was pretty funny when the other rat turned tail and ran. Apprentice Cleric ( The Girl Adventurer). Looked a lot like fighter girl from episode 1. I’m glad these two took Guild Girls advice.

A very calm episode but i bet that most of the new characters that appeared in this episode will be relevant in future episodes.

So that girl likes him, she is pretty cute xD

Nothing special, and also pissed me off that the dumb ass dude and his friend kept going back to fight that spider over his sword. They already didn't fare good enough when he had the sword, so made him think he would be better without it? lmao. They need to find a different career path.

Otherwise it was slow, not anything cool. But still enjoying it.

Lol there are stat requirements to wield certain weapons...

Witch woman was keeping a candle down there? WTF?

"When you lose your weapon, what's the best way to fight enemies?"
"Steal one from a goblin." Lol good answer.

"Throw, Stab, Break, and Shatter." What is this, Runescape?

Oh yeah! Beating rats with a stick is the way to go! The 10% stun chance should not be underestimated!

"Skip Sapphire and Emerald and go straight to Ruby, no, Bronze even." Bronze is higher than gems? I must have forgot that from the first episode. Still...

Sense Lie is a spell? WE NEED THAT IN A ROMANCE ANIME!

Scout, grab treasure, keep the good stuff, sell the rest. HE'S A LEECH! NO LEECHES IN MY PARTY!

Guildmarm is a good girl. Quest receptionist doesn't have a name right? I'm just going to call her Guildmarm from now on.

Lawful good to chaotic evil. Law and Chaos alignment is in here too? What is Goblin Slayer aligned to?

Sword Maiden is calling for Goblin Slayer to...slay goblins? Why do I have the feeling that this won't end well for Sword Maiden?

Damn, manga readers upset about an important arc being cut. This is White Fox, place some trust in them. Im sure they will figure something out. They did it with Steins;Gate, they're bound to do it with Goblin Slayer. I'm positive the important arc will be shown by the end of the season as a cliffhanger for a possibility of season 2. What am I saying though, manga/novel elitists can only be satisfied if its word for word, changing nothing.

Lizard man is so cute, loving his cheese. sweet nectar of the gods.

Goblin Slayer has his own mini harem, lots of girls love him.

The side story was just okay.

I'm curious about that character at the end. I haven't picked up the manga yet since I'm reading other series but I'll probably do it before the end of the month.

Yooo they skipped one of my favorite parts where Goblin Slayer shows all his scars and walks around without armor getting it repaired shocking people. I wonder if there is even going to be a Village Goblin Defence at this point. Seems we rushed through all the way to The Sword Maiden Arc. But ah well we are working with only 12 episodes here sadly.

Can I actually confirm that the manga is following the LN? Because from the listing of LN chapters here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblin_Slayer#Light_novels, Goblin Slayer in the Water Town (Sword Maiden) arc happens immediately after Adventures and Daily Life (under Volume 2), which are Episodes 6 and 5 of the anime respectively.

I feel like they're going to adapt things out of order rather than skip the village entirely. The village battle seems more fitting for a finale compared to the Sword Maiden arc tbh, and there's no overarching plot so it doesn't really matter when events take place.

No, it can work out.Give lets say volume 2 4 episodes and return to volume 1 with 3 episodes.They will skip stuff,surely but at least we will get to see both arcs

What most people are saying is that they will adapt the sword maiden arc and for the finale they will have the goblin attack arc.Still he can only hope.

Honestly, probably my favourite of the episodes so far. We got plenty of much needed worldbuilding and insight on the daily lives of starting adventurers, incompetent as they were. It actually felt like a world instead of an excuse for the required set pieces. Even if just about every woman is obsessed with Goblin Slayer.

And if they skip the farm defense arc, I am fine with this.

Agreed, it's good that this time the noobs listened to Guild Girl.Taking advice from their GS sempai gave them a weapon -- probably the noob guy did not spend money getting that CLUB, as he has no money. That humble piece of wood helped kill a giant rat and a giant bug. xD

Also showed how nice GS really is. Those noobs insulted him before, but he still helped them.

No, this episode isn't "Adventures and Daily Life", it's actually a mix of Volume 1, Chapter 10's "Dozing" and Volume 4, Chapter 1's "Of Rookie Warrior and Apprentice Priestess" side story. Volume 1, Chapter 11 to 13 cover the village defense.

Volume 2, Chapter 1's "Adventures and Daily Life" is about

The wiki doesn't help, it only shows the chapter names for the volumes with no chapter summary (none that I can see, anyway). If you actually read the LN though, "Dozing" covers part of this episode, "A Party of Adventurers" covers the first half of village defense, "Over the Goblin's Hill" covers the second part, and "The Fate of an Adventurer" covers the aftermath. Those are the last four chapters of volume 1.

"Goblin Slayer in the Water Town" doesn't start until the volume 2, chapter 2. The anime has definitely skipped/rearranged the arc, not the manga.

Yeah, and Guild Girl even admits that she liks GS. Well, she probably has no choice because the one asking her has the power to know if a person is lying. :P
