| So the grand finale will be the arc that was skipped. Makes sense actually especially if you have read the manga. I mean basically this anime adapts the entirety of the chapters that's currently available for us manga readers (Even though it's supposed to adapt the LN or what have you). Calm before the storm, also, GS has a grand harem. |
| Don't believe the hype. |

| Why is Goblin Slayer always hiding his face anyway? Did goblins fuck his face so much that it left some nasty scars? Seems like he looks normal based on people's reactions though. Also if that Shana looking little girl killed the demon king why are there still goblins? Is this some sort of last attack from the remnants of the few surviving ones and of course they'll target their nemesis Goblin Slayer. |
 |
| A much slower episode, but a break from the last arc and setting up the next is fine. Admittedly, this show has probably had more episodes of that nature than it perhaps needed, but this was solid by those standards so I won't complain too much. |
| Does anyone know the Name of the OST that played at the end of the episode? |

| they've mentioned several times now, even in this episode that Goblin Slayer won't be around forever... which is why he needs to start making babies with his harem right now so he can train them to be future Goblin Slayers, so when he grows old and die, there'll be someone else to step in and continue the Goblin Slaying family tradition! |

PrometheanSpark said: The world is celebrating what they believe is the end of a great war. The celebrations in the capital, the feast at the guild hall, and the letter from Sword Maiden all indicate a great optimism in a peaceful future as the world breathes a collective sigh of relief. But GS will not partake in any drinking or any celebration because he is not distracted by the vanquishing of the Demon Lord and the sudden revelation at the end of the episode, which proves him right, is beautifully done. War is coming! I thoroughly enjoyed the episode. Contrary to what so many critics would have you believe the series is great at world-building. We check in with various different adventurer groups, Sword Maiden, and the victory celebrations in the capital. The relief stemming from the death of the Demon Lord is palpable across the world. I am really looking forward to the next episode and the reality check the goblin armies will deliver to mankind. agreed, it actually felt a bit eerie to me, even while all the celebration is being showed, it's as if the show is making us feel what Goblin Slayer feels that the danger is not over yet. |
oh god... cow girl speech at the end was too real nice chill before the storm episode |

There is so much wisdom beyond these words! I dunno, 6-7 for now. It's imo still dull and so are the characters, but some of the battles are good and the art and animation are okay. Tbh, I like the lizardguy and the old dwarf the most, because they felt more realistic due they aren't girls and don't have to fulfill a moe / these typical female archetypes. They are still archetypes, but well, more pleasant ones. xD Also, I like such races as lizard-people. Nice calm episode and funny drinking contest.

FreezePeach said: Her not seeing his face is so unlikely it's borderline impossible. She was conscious before performing the ritual. Sure, they are minor details but they screwed up major ones as well. Also, no shit it's my opinion. I never said I'm talking in someone's stead. At least what I proposed doesn't mess up the flow of the story and, minor or not, details.Antanaru said: Priestess likely didn't see his face yet. Anyway, neither of these are even remotely important. These are minor details, adaptation not supposed to be exact. And "perfect season ending" - well, that's just your opinion. Nothing perfect about it, it is abrupt and weird.@idontknowsarcasm Not really. Also, dropping the line from the Water City "because I am Goblin Slayer" and leaving the faff afterwards for the credits roll would make for a perfect season ending. Actually, in this particular case it does. Anime is not made for you personally. No one in the world cares if you think that adaptation is botched or writing is bad as long as anime gets good ratings and sells well. Just because you think something is bad doesn't mean it's bad. Again, no shit it's not made for me personally. You would have easier time getting your point across without such asinine inserts. My point stands, just because something is popular doesn't mean it's good. I don't want to tediously delve into obvious matters such as pop culture or eating habits just because you act like a tosser. Antanaru said: Dude, you don't understand what the word "objectively" means. Look it up, it will blow your mind. In particular, your opinion about anything is not "objective" in any shape or form by definition of the word. "Someone competent" - they are doing fine job, objectively, as in "show undeniably has high ratings regardless of what Antanaru thinks about it." Not trying to please you personally doesn't make them incompetent.but if you look at it objectively, it's not a good show. Even worse when you check the manga and see how awesome it could be if someone competent got his hands on the production. I already had enough with comments from cretins who have trouble understating primary school level biology, if you don't have anything substantial to add, be so kind and sod off. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| IMO this was the best episode of Goblin Slayer. The ending gave me chills when I saw the footprints |
 |
| Looks like they got to the missed chapter this episode, And they’ll be doing “those” Chapters to end it. |

| Ya know in the manga , GS isn't sleeping naked and in the manga the childhood friend would be seen in her underwear,anyways this is a boring ep. |
Gerver said: tambi33 said: When they say demon lord, I imagine a world on the brink of destruction but things seemed to be fine here... Unless demon lords are just a high class mob that you rarely find -as well as being upon its own. Anyway... Great, he's got a harem way to go. Love it. But. WTF. Goblin tracks right at the end of the episode, nah why you gotta be ending it like that? I wanna know what is happening! Can't wait for next week, loved this episode but I clicked "Hated it" by accident. Episode 11 cannot come any sooner So because Demon Lord exist somewhere the sun should stop shine, people should stop eat, drink and sleep and everyone must go around talking about how bad their life is? Look at IRL, somewhere people fighting or dying in pain right now, but I dont think that is stopping you from your daily routine. Yeh... 'cause in reality there is no massive looming entity that is going to destroy the world; all my point was ever saying is that this villain is being presented in a way that's make one think "sh*t, how can we ever get away from this." Conflict in any way is bad, but considering what they've shown concerning the demon Lord, it's remained pretty much a "meh!" Even its presentation in this episode didn't seem really shocking when they've said that the demon Lord has come -fair enough, if it was coming then the build-up through the use of underlings would've have made better sense rather having the big bad lord who didn't end up affecting the story from the perspective of goblin slayer and co., which were amingst many others were pretty lax. All downplaying the dangers of what this demon Lord's coming entails |
 |
| So the demon lord got defeated but how did the story continue in the LN if anyone knows? Is there a chance that there will be more material for a season 2 or for a few more volumes of the LN? Anyone? |
| Glad to see a slice of life episode with a break. Whoah :O next week it's gonna be a recap? Really wish it wasn't -.- |
 |
| It was such a fine episode. Calm, with some funny scenes (i.e. that duel in drinking alcohol between Dwarf Shaman and Elf Archer), and scenes concentrated on the relations between adventurers (i.e. that sword practice or common meal with friends). I really liked how the creators adapted from the manga the scene when Cow Girl pulls Goblin Slayer and he has his head on her legs. Atmosphere was utterly alright, you could feel peace of the countryside and emotions comming from Cow Girl and Goblin Slayer. We were also able to see more of Female Adventurer and her companions, who defeated Demon Lord at last. And... as many people expected (including me), one Arc that appeared in the manga and was skipped in the moment it should appear in the anime (if we stick to the order of events as it was presented in the manga), will finally take place. Village Arc. Brutal, bloody, dramatic and full of atmospheric moments is incomming, lads! ;D I'm glad the creators of the anime rearranged some of the events and moved Village Arc forward in the anime's storyline. It's perfect for a finale, and the way it was announced (not only footprints, but also that theme with kingdom celebrating victory over main enemy, while a lot of lesser enemies are still a serious threat to many people, in example goblins). Soo, the hype is real! :D |
| Not each and every moment has to be about slaying goblins, thus ..it felt refreshing I seriously want this Anime to have more Episodes (Only 2 left for this season), but welll.. I guess the last Episodes are going to be really dark Storm incoming |
 |
| to think it started off with him not wearing the armor.... I guess it was bound to happen some people won't recognize him...still said the blond guild manager was unable to see him... and them all characters sat together |

Only_Brad said: Manaarii_0 said: What have you done?!? You have combined two "dense" MC! Guess now GS will kill goblins by cooking... He kinda did with the flour thing But now will he make bread or pizzas? |
| Starting with a little more of back story. A pretty laid back episode. Felt pretty good seeing all characters interacting with each other. Sword Maiden sent a letter to Goblin Slayer. Anyway Cowgirl is a pretty great character. I love seeing her. So finally the part that was left out from the manga is getting adapted. I was expecting it. |
 |
| Nothing really special. |
| Just two more episodes. This episode was cute, GS was surrounded by his mini harem which includes chubby dwarf and cheese-lovin' lizardman. High Elf looks gorgeous all the time even when she's piss faced drunk. That last scene though, I'm guessing those were hundreds of goblin footprints. GS is good, he knows where to survey and boy did he get results. I hope nothing bad happens to my precious Cow tits girl, she always sleeps naked, the goblins won't have to deal with clothes if they get to her. |
| 臭い- |
How could anyone missed this... GS must be hot and riled up all day with a greeting like this every morning! |

| I'm still confused about the red-haired farm girl. Her appearance suggests that she is around her 20s, but she sounds like the typical loli underaged girls. I thought she is supposed to be Goblin Slayer's childhood friend, but even the little Priestess girl sounds more mature than her lol |

tambi33 said: kofmaster said: Demonlord are the main villain in games as Dragon Quest and the towns still looks full of life.  Yeah, what I said is a little misleading, to clarify; due to the nature of this world the demon lord (if it's the main villain) needs to be reinforced by tropes of destruction otherwise its presence is downplayed and doesn't seem as much of a big bad villain... I've not played dragon quest but that aspect would make it a bit of a downer for me. You do have a point, but you have to realize that this isn't a series about demon slaying and fighting against the Demon Lord. This is focused on a man who only kills goblins, so naturally all the point of focus would be on goblins as the main villains. If this was a MC whose goal is to kill the Demon Lord, I'm sure the anime would consist of everything you've mentioned. |
| Everything about this show is just so meh, animation, art, designs, story.. I don't even know why I'm following anymore. |
 |
| Finally! A fairly relaxing episode to watch. One that is kind of pleasing to the eyes. Yeesh, I really hope they do more episodes like this because the Characters need to be fleshed out more. Glad to see that they Animated them spending time with each other. Also, I'm glad to hear more than a Souka Souka from tin can , I mean Goblin Slayer san. But it looks like it's the calm before the storm, a big battle might be coming next. |

Another inane comment based on intentionally (at least I hope it's intentional and not out of sheer stupidity) misinterpreting someone's statement. When someone is talking about something being objective, he usually means its qualities are observable with little space for interpretation. And jarring use of CG just for one character is a fact. Removing action scenes from an (in big part) action driven series is a fact. Lacklustre animation as well. Same for pointless fillers and awkward writing. You may like this series or not, but it doesn't change the fact it's poorly made.I already had enough with comments from cretins who have trouble understating primary school level biology, if you don't have anything substantial to add, be so kind and sod off. For now, we have to just accept that this is what considered good by majority of people in anime community currently. |

| Calm episode. I'm not sure what the uncle meant, but judging from his words to the cow girl previously he might think Goblin Slayer's not a great influence on her, and he'd be right. Next episode should be very interesting since if I'm seeing things right that's A LOT of goblin footprints... |
