Let's wait the next episode, we'll watch a bloody battle.
Question: did she sleep in the ending? If yes, I can feel that something bad will happen.

Really solid episode after the last one. Something that was bothering me a bit this season was the comparative lack of tension compared to the first run of this anime but this episode did a pretty good job with the atmosphere, especially towards the end. Also there were some really nice transitions here and there, like the flames turning into the ripples from the river, chef's kiss to those.
Hoping the rest of the season maintains this level of quality, seems we're nearing the "main" arc of it!

What an incredible episode this has been, overall this whole 'marriage' arc has been really great and as always interesting as hell.
I start to be convinced that my man just got a curse to be followed by Goblins like it's insane, they're everywhere trying to screw up everything.

But yeah, great episode and it will just be better from here, since this time it seems that the big boss will be something we've never seen before.

And oh btw, loved the interaction between Elf and Goblin slayer, truly wholesome!

The animation of this episode was actually really good. Makes it seem like the poor animation in some of the earlier episodes was actually a fluke.

But yeah, I kinda hate how the gore seems to be censored. Maybe they'll show more in the Blu-ray version? Kinda doubt it though.

I love these episodes where the goblin slaying team has to traverse different environments and kill the goblins in an efficient way.

what's a gore? .. I don't understand
@Anupam_Singh A gore is someone who cared and campaign about climate change......
(JK, that's Al Gore. I'm sorry, I had to)

"Gore" is extreme violence, when a show show's decapitation, blood rain, or something like that. Basically, if the show showed a man cutting his opponents in half and their blood and intestines got spread all over the place, now that's gore. This EP has a scene with a grinder, that's usually used to grind wheat into flours. But then we see people inside the grinder instead, with their blood spread all over the place. This means, whoever that is, used the grinder to grind people to extract their blood. Now that's gore.....

On the other hand there's also "Vore". It's gore but in s*xual fetish kinda thing. Mostly involving mosters eating their victims (girls) after r*ping them..... Yeah, I watched/read too much h*ntai to actually know this....

It's nice to see the group back to goblin slaying adventuring but it looks like Priestess got traumatized with the horrible things that the goblins have done. I also feel that this is the calm before the storm...

episode 6 animation threw me off so much, it took me out of the whole episode, im glad to see episode 7 stepped the animation up.

I don't like the fact that we're now in a elven village and have only seen two other elves outside of our regular HE Kuchukahatari.

Kuchukahatari boasted about her sister being a better archer than her so I had automatically assumed from the male high elf appearance that he would be a great warrior which was being sold by how easily he snuck up on goblin slayer last episode but so far the elder sister and her husband are disappointing me, them having him off screen goblins for me is working against him. This disappointment maybe getting compounded from thinking about the other high elf from year one. Outside of that good to see the elves live up to their nature of being stuck up. Hope is still there to see the superior abilities of the elder sister.

I definitely noticed the censorship, and glad to see I wasn't the only noticing the animation wasn't up to par. I'm hoping all that gets addressed for the releases.

Do you know what I admire about the Priestess? Even though she has been fighting for a year and a half, she is still shocked by the cruelty. Her astonishment shows that her soul has not yet been corrupted and that, deep in her heart, there is still hope. I think this is beautiful. And it may be just me, but I thought the animation in this episode was better than in previous episodes. And, my God, the elves were drinking water mixed with the blood and feces of their peers. A cruelty worthy of the medieval ages. Even I felt disgusted! Goblins are cruel to the extreme!

I love this show more and more with every episode! The elf girl is so protective of them. She really takes care of everyone, and she's also a badass warrior. I appreciate all of the "screen time" our favorite farm girl is getting.

@BlueBullet178 Yeah. In past there was plenty people who called HEA immature or childish, but I think it's obvious she gave lot of consideration to what she wants from life and why and that her nagging Goblin Slayer about adventures is her trying to help him to... well... get life, especially as humans don't have lot of it.

Really hoping that torch going at the end was just a transition for the end of the episode, and that it didn't actually go out. Even though the group is highly experienced, being both groggy from sleep and having their sight taken away makes them susceptible to the goblins, and I don't wanna see any of them fall victim to them.

That's just the transition to end the scene. But even if the torch would go out, 3 out of the 5 party members have night vision.

@Yaggamy lol that's a letdown. I was pretty intrigued to know the guy. Yeah, if he's someone from the past (he'll appear in flashback maybe?), it's pretty odd why they'd put him in the OP.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Welp, the slice of life recess is over. Now we are back to the gruesome of this series.

That's kinda bad, the villages not having communication between each other.
@BlichoBoy feels like it was less censored in first season and now its very very much censored.

Aside from that, his sister really wants to show her to him :D

We are finally out of the slice-of-life-esque setting and back to the usual goblin slaying. I got a sense of foreboding at the end of the episode, the high elf looks like she is also starting to feel sleepy, and with the goblin slayer not alert, they might end up in a bad position. I think something is going to happen to the high elf since the male high elf was asking goblin slyer to look after his sister-in-law, the author wouldn't put that dialogue there for fun so something bad is gonna happen.
