| We got ourselves a little arc here. Anyway, that water town reminds me of that water based city from Tales of Zestiria which also has a underground/ big ass sewer level |
 |
| Oh man, they already introduced the hero? The manga just revealed her in the latest chapter tho. damn |
| Loved this episode, but I still somehow cant overlook the fact that they skipped one of the most important arcs of Goblin Slayers character progression... |
| And the slaying of Goblings continues.... |

I was not baited by anything, and there's nothing to "understand" here |

| Good episode, looks like there's quite a bit more going on with this particular goblin group than it first appeared. |
| Why would they remove the camping part and instead show the dumb hero nobody gives a crap about is beyond me. Decent source material, garbage adaptation. Who would ever expect that... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
GreenNet said: papsoshea said: What a complete shit show! Dark and mature? This series was closer to kawaii anime troupe slice-of-life, betraying every grimdark theme the show tries so hard to establish. This is an edge lord wet dream! Action? It was basic, the CGI is atrocious and choreography is boring. "It was a nice touch with Maiden being a representation of justice; blindfolded, holding a sword with the handle area being a weighing scale." ^^ She's dressed like a whore and has big massive tits! This is one of the worst anime in years! 1) Don't spoil shithead 2) If you don't like it, drop it. You can't complain every episode. Do it at the end if you really wanna shit on the series 3) I mean, don't spoil shithead, who the fuck are you to ruin the fun to others? You should add a spoiler tag to the quoted part, I think. Doing this and simply moving on would require common sense, something he is apparently incapable of. He has been hating on the anime since day one. Now that all of his "criticism" has been refuted, he has to resort to being petty. Also, I don't know why the Priestess is called a loli. Akatsuki from Log Horizon can be called a loli, but Priestess looks like a normal 15 year old in my opinion. |

| I like how Priestess and High Elf Archer gave Goblin Slayer a talking to. Being so blunt with Sword Maiden probably earned him a lesson from her too. But I like that about him. The sewer combat was nice. The appearance of the alligator gave me Resident Evil 2 flashbacks. |

| The Captain of the second Goblin boat looked like he belonged in ZZ Top! :D |
| The sword that takes life gives life |
| Meh Sword Maiden got nerfed hard, she looks so harmless and stupid, the complete opposite of the manga where just on the fact the way she holds her sword in the whole convo looks so badass already, and she hardly has any lines coz she actually just replies to them, in the anime she's so talkative and her clothes are so SFW ugh I hate this fucking anime |
Delinqq said: NoviSun said: Still stuck on rape, are we? Eyes roll. Congrats on completely missing my point and just picking on words. I said i'm not offended by it, but the fact that it's somehow implemented into every episode makes it seem as if the author really is trying to attract as much controversy from SJWs and the like as possible to up the numbers of the series > Japan > SJW SJW is a western problem lmao |
| Goblin Slayer acting as always, even when talking to Sword Maiden. ;D This episode was awesome. Fast-paced, with decent action and we were able to see them goblins on boats. ;-) |
| At last best girl Sword Maiden appeared, i don't really mind they are doing this arc first i mean as i thought and like others have said the farm raid would be a good ending for the 12th episode, i wish Goblin Slayer was weekly though so we could have more content for the main story, i know we have the spin offs for more story but still oh well pretty good episode overall. |

It’s attracting loads of attention in the west because of this, in case you haven’t noticed. And this isn’t 4chan buddy You know this is a light novel and was never intended to be focused on the western audience. The original novel is not even descriptive about rape (but yes about gore). The author just want to write a fantasy novel about a Goblin Slayer... nothing else. |

| Pirate Goblins Who would think of that xD THat swamp dragon tho |

| New mission, Temple of Law and Sword Maiden. GS answered to Sword Maiden's petition and he and his group went there to see what's going on. As the Sword Maiden explained, there's an infestation of goblins that is coming from the ruins under the city, but the army of the city doesn't want to get involved. They started their exploration and spent some time defeating goblins when they got attacked by a goblin boat. The party managed to defeat it and discovered that there's a kind of alligator living there, so they used it to destroy some others goblin boats. They got out of there but GS is thoughtful about the natural or possibly artificial goblin generation. Very interesting episode, I expected some action in here and kind of got it. The goblin infestation is affecting a city here, so the problem is more urgent, but there's this strange feeling when the city army doesn't want to get involved and why. Some cool action scenes and discoverments. Finally GS is thinking if the goblins are being artifically generated. It looks that there's an ogre down there. |

| GS is very directly straight to the point and no fvcks/sh!ts given! awesome party battle! another great teamwork! OST is insanely EPIC as well! so hype! LOL an Alligator (swamp dragon!?) and lured to the goblin boats was a great plan! it's a slaughterfield!!! of course, someone is leading the goblins... easy prediction! i wonder if its another ogre or a different kind of beast!? 5/5. |
 |
| Is it just me or was this episode a bit rushed. Not that I'm complaining. It was a good episode. |
 |
| In the first episode i thought it was going to be the edgiest thing ever made with lots of gratuitous gore and forced shocking scenes. By the third, i thought it was going to be a more serious show all about a guy that went kinda crazy and obsessed after a traumatic experience (i was very much cool with that). Now its... fun times killing goblins. Its all over the place but still good i guess. |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |

Not to mention they have to try to compact everything in just 12 episodes sadly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. |

 I can't even with this show. |
 |
| Tension buildup in the second half was quite good. Action itself wasn't, but we knew that already. Not liking the elf girl tbh, feels like a token addition yet isn't treated that way. Neither am I liking Naobou's voice here, this could be the first time I'm liking Yui's acting better than Naobou's |
| Goblins....on a boat.... Boat.....meet Alligator. |
 |
| That was fast, we're already that deep into the next arc, it looks like it's all action, and by the way, the animation was spectacular, no, just fantastic, I guess they are putting that budget to good use. I wonder if the dude and girl from the last episode are going to be any vital to the story, they've got plenty of screen time already, you could get at least an episode and a half if you were to glue the bits together. The legendary maiden didn't take that long to appear, I hope we get introduced to more of them, probably the story about that hero at the beginning was referring to one of them? Something makes me think there is going to be more ranks than I think they are, we're been hinted as though silvers are the top tier, and then here are the gold ranked adventures, I suppose those are all legendary? I'm expecting something even higher, a diamond or a platinum rank. |
| Damn, the sjw's are losing their edge. It's been 4 days since airing, and we're only on the third page of forum comments. Have they found some new cause to champion? |
| Pretty interesting episode. So so so many questions to ask as you watch it. Hopefully, the next episode shed some light on these questions. |
| The only thing this motherfucker thinks about is Goblins. LMAO. |
| I didn't expect this to have funny moments or anything similar. "It's not a goblin" |

| The Goblin Slayer is hilarious: "That's not a goblin" lmao. It seems that there's a boss there. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| Lol, I'm loving the personality of Goblin Slayer ... he wanted to skip the dialogs, and go straight to the kill, like me in some RPGs: D |
"No matter where you go, everyone's connected." Iwakura, Lain. |
| fuck yeah what an episode. gimme that One Piece goblin parody boys. The party chemistry is roughly the highlight of the show: every character in the group has a unique role, both in and out of combat, in terms of character chemistry & personality, strategy, skills (naturally), and even degrees of variation in moral alignment -- what's with this having to convince Goblin Slayer to adhere to ethical genocide standards? I loved watching the way the party interacted fighting the goblin pirates. FUCKING GOBLIN PIRATES, MY DUDES. Man why did Black Clover get an endless adaptation which Goblin Slayer is stuck with 12 episodes. |
