Goblin Slayer

I gave the entire first season an 8 and I watched all the episodes in half a day. It was quite gripping and entertaining but the second season ruined everything that was good about the first season. The biggest problem at the beginning is the change in art design due to the change in illustrators. The animations in the second season look very cheap and bad. The new characters added to the story are boring and there is nothing interesting about the previous characters. The effectiveness of the goblins has also been greatly reduced and the episodes are boring slices of life. The main character, the Goblin Slayer, no longer has clear motivations and the writer's attempts to give him more personality have failed. If you have already watched the first season, I do not recommend continuing with the second season. It would be better to believe that the story was ended in the first season, or you can read the manga.

First episode is an absolute slaughter lol. I wouldn't say you should watch it, cause there are definitely better animes out there. Before the last 2 episodes I would have given it a 6/10. The story is not deep at all and the action also isn't great, but it's watchable.

The main protagonist, Goblin Slayer, never fails to deliver new and creative ways of slaying goblins. Instead of fussing over elite quests and obtaining elite status, Goblin Slayer and his crew focus on the low-rank monsters which terrorize the common people.

The show does not hide how brutal its world is. They heavily detail exactly what goblins are capable of and how violent and threatening they can be - - several scenes are quite disturbing, so I do not recommend it for young viewers.

Really fun to watch so far, very inspiring and quickly becoming one of my favorite TV shows ever. This show will age well, the undertones are well layered and it promotes positive values. The show quickly becomes something very different than the first episode so don't buy into your first impression, this is most definitely a thinking show. 10/10

This isn't a simply braindead action for action sake anime. Adding real life results from actions and consequences is better than most shows out there. Goblin Slayer did for fantasy what Ghost in the Shell did for Cyber Punk. It showed a real world thought provoking narrative.
