This is both was surprised and angered me in the light novel. When GS shows up asking for help to fight a goblin Lord the book makes a point of stating that most of the adventurers were scared of goblins and remember the horrors of their first quests. Which is fine goblins are utter nightmares if you go into a cave and don't know what's about to happen.

But since all these adventurers know how dangerous they are why the hell don't they tell the new people? It's utterly bizarre how everyone can know that goblins are actually a hard thing to deal with but nobody in the world takes that to heart.

Kind of, but not necessarily. A few things people seem to miss:

1. The manga makes it clear that goblins are a minor problem compared to bigger, stronger demons, so you could assume that they theoretically would do even more damange if they weren't prioritized, so people tend to specialize in defeating that instead.

2. They are apparently frontier heroes, in a frontier town defending frontier settlers, villagers and farmers. So it's probably a sparsely populated area, and not very well defended and that's exactly why they have to rely on mercen- I mean adventurers to police it.

3. Heroes also take care of things we haven't seen but heard of, such as bandits. You can think that bandits could very well be as dangerous as goblins, raping and pillaging towns just as badly if they attract higher level heroes to them.

The main reason we see goblins as this major problem that's worse than everything else is because the manga did a bad job at showing how much more destructive every other major enemy group is.

no no, you misunderstand me. It's not that I disagree about goblin powerlevel, my point is on how widespread that problem is. if goblins represent the entry level threat, then GS' knowledge should be some textbook material. no association wastes lives regardless of how replaceable they are to a problem so easily remedied. when GS talks about using the scroll for example, other characters in his party who are not entry level adventurers react as if they've received an epiphany, as if this is the only time the item was used in that way.

I like the character, I enjoy the seires, but the world is not very solid. that's it.
>>
>>159126847

What you say is true but I think the scroll is a bad example. It's being explained that such items are fucking rare and expensive, and those characteristics tend to make people not bother experimenting with them and rather just use tried and true methods that hold great power.

Well, one of the fun points of GS is that it makes fun of stereotypes in other fantasy series like how absurd the equipment they use is or how overconfident low level adventurers are when facing monsters instead of doing research.

However, it does these things in a very clumsy way, making the uniqueness of GS's level of preparedness seem obtuse if you consider how vulnerable adventurers are in the series.

I mean, there's plenty of retarded shit to complain about if you're picky. Like, if rape is so fucking common you'd think that young women would be extremely discouraged from being beginner adventurers, but apparently in GS world they are more common than males.
>>
>>159126847
Thats because scrolls are really rare items and normally you wouldn't "waste" something as rare and valuable as a restriction free long range portal on turning it into a single use water jet cutter. You would use it to transport yourself somewhere. GS is just so obsessively focused on killing goblins that his only thought on finding out it was a portal scroll was "How can this be used to kill goblins".

If Adventurers and heartless killers like the Goblin Slayer hadn't been killing and fucking with Goblins and invading their lands for ages, Goblins wouldn't radicalize in the large numbers they are.

We need to just lift all travel restrictions for goblins and let millions of them move into our cities. After all we have not been having children, goblins will have many, many children and those young goblins will help "take care" of us when we are old.

>I think the scroll is a bad example.
A better example is how no person ever thought to use the Priest's "Barrier" spell in an offensive or utilitarian way. They have what is essentially a very sturdy wall that can be conjured out of thin air within a fixed radius around the caster, and nobody thought to use it as a way to block off a passageway, or to steal an example from Drifters, use it as a footstool to get above enemy fortifications.

Another is why nobody had thought to use "Holy Light" as a makeshift flashbang.

And another thing, this bothered me in Grimgar as well. Why the fuck does nobody at the Mage academies tell their students to wear fucking armor? There is no class specific gear in this setting, Mages can wear chainmail. But why did the valedictorian in a mage school that pumps out adventurers not know that cloth is shit protection? What are they teaching in those schools?
>>

>>159128553
The most common assumption is that magic requires very percise body movements and armor would make them harder to execute in a combat situation, but it is a little weird when the witch in the last chapter has more cloth in her big ass hat than on her body. A simple chest plate or some bracers would do those images wonders.

Of course for the priestess, it could be assumed that the holy garb is a big part of casting divine magic, which I think is excusable.
>>
>>159128553

>and nobody thought to use it as a way to block off a passageway, or to steal an example from Drifters, use it as a footstool to get above enemy fortifications.

Are you sure about that? Unless it was stated in the manga and I forgot about it, nothing says that the pros haven't done this kind of stuff while dungeon crawling. Priestess is a complete noob so she has no way to know.

The armor thing though is totally true, wear some fucking armor you useless casters.

Magic, not how to be an adventurer or proper care for armor. Its magic school.

Take what Priestess says with a grain of salt because of her inexperience but she's equally confused by this particular application in the manga and LN. There isn't any other mention of people using support spells this way outside of the context that Goblin Slayer taught it to them
Priestess will again use this to sandwich the Goblin Lord between two and protection walls while Goblin Slayer gets up and stabs him in the throat

>>159128747
>The most common assumption is that magic requires very percise body movements and armor would make them harder to execute in a combat situation,
Doesn't exist in this setting. Priestess gets chainmail the second chapter because she's told too. Can mages wear platemail? Not sure, but they can at least wear cold iron.

>>159128909
Hard to believe a magic school in a world where humanity is at war with demons would bother to teach someone offensive magic, but not how not to die like a scrub on the battlefield?

>I haven't read Grimgar, what happened in it exactly that was so bad?
Long story short, a group of people are isekai'd to a fantasy world without their memories. Said fantasy world operates on JRPG logic and everyone must join the local guild and be assigned a character class so they can start adventuring to make ends meet.

The leader of the main group is assigned the Priest role and acts as the main force keeping the group alive during the early weeks. However he winds up dying during a failed attempt at Goblin extermination (the fucking irony) because of the following reasons.

1) He was acting as the rear guard despite the group having a knight class present

2) He gets shot with a crossbow but has no more castings of Heal because he used them on others for minor injuries

3) Because he was pulling triple duty between healing, leading, and fighting the group never learned to act on their own initiative. So they break down whenever something happened. Which lead to the hasty retreat.

After he dies the group realizes that they still need a healer and after gathering the nerves to go out adventuring again they seek one out. It's then that we find out that healers dying is a common problem for all the reasons listed. But it's baffling that there exists a school dedicated only to white mages but not a single veteran instructor says anything about saving your heals for important injuries while out on a quest, or not being out in the open when your enemies will punish you for that.

Their new healer hangs this over their heads because in the end, it was the groups willingness to rely on the healer that got him killed like that.

I think what throws a lot of people for a loop is that the setting doesn't bend itself over backwards to fellatiate the idea of an adventurers guild. In this setting, the guild are basically just job brokers. They don't front the money or put up most quests themselves, someone else does it. They don't train people up to do quests they should already be qualified for, they just dole out ranks and quests based on and experience. They aren't some force of good protecting the world from the forces of evil, they're just a business and act accordingly. Various schools don't train up people with the goal of sending them off to join the guild and fight monsters, some just happen to join up with the guild for profit and experience. The people who join aren't heroes, they're in it for the money and fame.

The other big assumption is that living, travelling, fighting, and taking care of armor is a skill that mages have neither the time nor aptitude to learn. A mail hauberk weighs between 10 and 25 pounds, plus gambeson, helmet and other stuff, and while it ends up distributed well across the torso, that can be a lot to carry and run around in day in and day out for an otherwise bookish nerdy type. Armor maintenance is its own beast in a world without galvanized wire or stainless steel, which adds another task on top of a mage's wizard bullshit they have to do at the end of an adventuring day (studying spells, drying reagents, waxing their staves or other such bullshit).

That said, there's absolutely no reason for them not to be wearing at least padded cloth or leather armor, or at the bare minimum a basic metal helmet. A stone to the head easily kills (or knocks out, thus good as kills) unprotected, and it seems reasonable that even the basest of demihumans can chuck rocks pretty hard. Not to mention shrapnel from magical explosions.

No one? The gobs have no females in their species to procreate with so that means they kinda have to mass rape in order to survive.

The humans are justified to defend themselves. The women don't wanna fuck gobs and the men don't wanna lose their women. So it escalates to a conflict of survival. There's no other option.

As for this battle, true, GS wiped out the gobs home but he was only able to do that because they were busy raiding his. He was just better prepared to handle this particular instance of conflict. He destroyed the enemy base becuase it posed a threat to his home. The gobs tried to raid the enemies base to advance their own species. Right or wrong has nothing to do with it

I'll tell you what doesn't jive with me. This world is supposedly at war with demons and it's pretty bad. Yet nobody bats an eye at the reportedly large number of new recruits dying on what should be easy jobs. Goblins are directly linked to the demon army and are actively attacking the same villages that may come under attack by trolls, dragons, litches, etc; and yet people keep downplaying Goblins in blatant opposition to the PTSD most adventurers who make it far have towards Goblins.

And for some reason, word of mouth doesn't exist. There are no hushed tones whenever a newbie takes on goblin extermination from their seniors. No veteran just offering some advice. You tell me that even among mercenaries there is no camaraderie? No desire to foster the next generation?

And even then, this guild can't just deny jobs to people who are underqualified for them? I doubt there is much difference between Porcelain and whatever rank comes directly above them, but it's clear that no porcelain should ever be allowed to take on Goblin slaying quests. Why can't the guild just tell them if they take the job they won't get the pay because they aren't permitted to do so?

This setting rubs me the wrong way because it can't tell what flavor of fantasy and what rules it wants to enforce and poke fun at. Clearly armor isn't mandatory because of how many barbarians and cloth wearing mages we see. Yet every time GS is around, someone gets shitstomped for not wearing helmets. The world is at war, yet humans feel ok losing fresh talent to low level mobs without intervention. The guild isn't an actual guild, but then they suddenly decide that they should after how many decades of operation?

The only thing carrying me through this story is the fact that the MC is amazing. Everything else is shit.

Goblin only raid frontier, they are non existence in more populated area. The demon lord just started picking up goblins since other race fail. So nobody gonna care about goblins for a long time until they start succeeding

Those more populated area are being raided by high tier monster and that's where most people go

Nobody cares about noobs. The guilds aren't the government. Name one thing that cost them when a noob die, except the Porcelain tags

>The demon lord just started picking up goblins since other race fail.
But this increase in goblin activity has been going on for at least all of GS's life. And like it's been pointed out numerous times. A lot of Advnturers have a fear of Goblins because they have seen how terrifying those fuckers are. Why shouldn't they at least pass on a warning to newbies? Are you stating they have no investment in their own juniors?

>Name one thing that cost them when a noob die, except the Porcelain tags
The village that may also be destroyed because they sent in a couple of females and they got Gob'd and turned into sows? It's not like the story doesn't say that has happened before.

>>159134944
So why is the public opinion that goblins are weak as children when every now and again people like Conan the barbarian get done in by them? You'd at least expect that people would also be spreading the rumor that those goblins are usually weak loners or something? Clearly even if they had the strength of a child Goblins are mob creatures. Strength in numbers is what carries the younger Goblins and unless you go Hob you'll still need numbers to beat humans.

I want a world where there are goblin nursery rhymes like "See a Gob in the meadow, he's an easy fellow. See a Gob in a Cave, he's attending a rave" Or some shit like what they do with snakes.

Your problem is that they reveal the worldbuilding bits by bits, chapter to chapter and not text dumping all the way from page 1.

That's why I mention story structure, that's the way the author play his world, by not revealing all in one giant text box.

Not nobody, few people cares. The blindfold girl, the victims, and GS party knew that. The reason why the don't care are because the price aren't worth it and they better kill bigger things.

>Hell looking at the village raid part and the goblins were a huge threat to even high rank adventurers
there's also other thing that is a huge threat, goblins is just one of them, we just don't see the other threat because the story revolves around GS. Because of that, other huge threat became irrelevant in the story, since we don't know.
That doesn't make other things in that world is NOT dangerous, which is where you all complained about.

>We are told that goblins are entry level
Not by the book. It used to be that way, but somehow it actually much more dangerous. Why? LN explains that. So>>159141788 is invalid.

The price thing is fucking bullshit and doesn't change the fact that newbies still go and try to kill goblins and then get literally raped, yet another bunch of newbies will never hear about this incident. Price should naturally rise after someone loses their acquaintances and friends to some goblins, and an entire village is gets razed, basic economics.
>That doesn't make other things in that world is NOT dangerous, which is where you all complained about.
But other things are NOT dangerous as you can see from how characters dress and behave. They might be fighting demons, orcs, or whatever but none of them seem to be giving enough of a wear armor vibe to adventurers. Like holy shit any other humanoid enemy should be at least as dangerous and use similar tactics to goblins yet goblins are special. Why hasn't any more dangerous enemy teach adventures to wear a fucking helmet or watch out from backstabs and dying enemies still stabbing

The world building is bad because it feels like an Isekai story where characters don't fit the world they are in. Goblin Slayer seems to fit his pseudo realistic and overly pessimistic to the point of idiocy setting, but others seem to live in a JRPG world.

It doesn't make sense for a monk to be useless against a bigger goblin if there is a fucking class that's a monk - they are supposed to be extraordinarily strong or else the whole thing doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense for a barbarian to get killed because he suddenly lost all of his peripheral vision due to hugging the half naked lady. It doesn't make sense for an experience Fighter to go down due to goblin child which can't even reach her head much less do enough damage to knock her out. Might as well just get a mage that gets killed because magic isn't real.
>>
>>159142059
>That doesn't make other things in that world is NOT dangerous
heres the issue, there is no way that in the world where adventurers can handle dragons and demon-lords on a regular enough basis that those same adventurers could lose to goblins, this is like having the armed military of a country lose to some gang in the hood

if goblins were to be the main threat, make the world low magic enough that they COULD be that threat

it doesent make sense for mages that can fight off demons to not have spells capable of dealing with some goblins

its doesent make sense for fighters who can tank hits from dragons to go down to goblins

it doesent make sense for classes to both exists (and have people be high level in that class- something that requires XP) and both be utterly useless against a force that some bears could beat

>price
the price would naturally rise as parties dissapear/towns get looted, the only way it could be this way is through some forced and convoluted conspiracy

You nerds are forgetting a crucial detail, but is only in the LN so far so is not your fault: gobs in GS world weren't always this nasty, only recently (GS's childhood) they became more dangerous because the god that plays the DM role buffed them and people in general still hasn't realize this.

Here's the Nail in the coffin of "Goblins are seen as a non-threat" bullshit this story tries to present.

>This was no joke. Most adventurers took on goblin slaying as their first quest. Some failed and paid
for their failure with their life. Others, though—be it through luck, strength, or who knew what—survived.
>Many of them were standing there at that moment. They knew in their bones the terror—or rather, frankly,
the difficulty—of goblins.
>Who would willingly fight a host of those creatures? And with a lord present—a goblin who excelled not in strength or magic, but in leadership.

This is what the LN has to say about veteran adventurers that are confronted by GS to try and defend the town. It's not just the numbers that push people away, it's the fact that most of them are traumatized by Goblins themselves. So why is this suddenly a world where people scoff at these creatures when they should be triggering vietnam flashbacks at every mention? Even one of the highest ranking heroes had a reason to fear these things.

This is inconsistent. Either Goblins have always been easy mode, or people would be talking about the real danger of goblins. Wasn't the fighter from the first chapter trained by adventurers? Wouldn't they have mentioned this when he helped repel some goblins from his hometown? That Goblins are actually really fucking dangerous and you need to be on guard around them?

I have never been able to put this to words but thank you. The problem is that the story wants to present a world where "fantasy" and "reality" are literal dieties affecting the world. Yet when "reality" makes Goblins a greater threat, he never chose to make everything else a threat as well. Either everything should have taken a level in lethality or "reality" should have picked a creature that is far more dangerous that even goblins.

>for a barbarian to get killed because he suddenly lost all of his peripheral vision due to hugging the half naked lady
This one I could excuse because the artist makes a point to show that this Barbarian was most likely in love with the woman, and he suffered from that critical moment of relief and weakness that comes from catching his bruised and battered companion. That was actually a good part of this last chapter, how the Lord abused that specific human trait for his benefit. It only took a split second to kill two birds with one flameberg.

This is a prime example of what I'm talking about. Most of the other people except the MC are fucking retards. Also you'd think there would be other people like Goblin Slayer who lost their families to goblins and now seek revenge.
With so much people shown to have suffered, you'd think a goblin slaying guild would have formed by now.
Do other people just give up on life after getting gobbed?

I'm just glad this one doesn't have a completely pointless "transported to another world scene". That shit rarely serves any purpose at all. Might as well just make them natives to begin with.

The world ain't sunshine and rainbow, kids. The strong eats the weak out there. Only a fool would hate goblins just because they obey the laws of nature. If anything it's the humans who are absolutely pathetic.
A true warrior would make everyone else submit to him regardless of race/class/wealth. Goblin Slayer is a fool for not realizing this, and obsessing over weak shitheads like goblins.

Because Goblin King, regardless of his guile, did not have the manpower, logistics and strength needed to lay siege to a single city.
So if it was a real priority to get him killed, it would take a group of Silvers a few days to track, kill, exterminate.


>>159128553
Because the point of Goblin Slayer, is that dedicated magic is always superior to misapplication and utilitarian use.
A scroll equal to GATE in destructive power, would actually be more common because its on a lower magic level.

But if you don't have the superior magic: You are hunting level 1 creatures, who rarely has support of their evolved kind.
Meanwhile GobSlay is running around on Kraut style overdesigned basic armor, made out of inferior metals and no enchantment. He if wasn't a low level gobomurder, he would most likely learn some magic, to get rid of the entire dependency on elaborated alchemy to even function as a hunter.
>>
>>159126183

The bad thing is that goes back on what they say earlier.

Goblins were generally considered low pay fodder so anyone who's not porcelain rank avoids them because they are more effort than they are worth.

Later on, they go back on that and pretend darwin awards are the norm when they pretty much said that only the most retarded or straight up unlucky adventurers get fucked by gobs with the unlucky ones running in a hob or shaman.

Its mostly a Darwin award unless they run into Shamans or Hobs.
Even in chapter 1:
0. They don't carry proper light sources, so they can't see all the crevices and manholes they pass
1. Group gets split up
2. Sorcerer stops Priest from using her light spell
3. Sorcerer ignores her listen check, then start paying attention to it only as she gets rushes. TOO LATE!
4. Warrior panics to save Priest, has no light sources, and end up kiting himself into a corner. And has no technique to fall back on
5. Monk fucks up even more, by not even trying to follow him. She is at the least 20 meters away when they mutilate him
6. Because Monk is the only one that can fight, she gets shredded by the Hob, instead of a 3v1 gank of Fire, Fists and cold Steel.
7. Priest has no field practice, so she doesn't understand her limits,

The entire wipe could have been avoided if they carried a proper light source, and stayed in formation.

I understand what you're trying to say, but I think that's exactly what the author wanted to portray in GS's world, people there think of goblins as if they were very dangerous cockroaches, you would bother dealing with them for a time but eventually decide to deal with bigger pests that will benefit you more if you dealt with them, the thing is people just don't bother thinking in ways to make goblin hunting easier for noobs or for anybody, gs became an expert in killing them because of how many he has killed, it's not a "people are retarded for not thinking this method out" it's a "people didn't bother thinking this method out"

Goblin Slayer himself isn't much better
1. Kills goblins whom the panels depict as having their mouths open upon death, possibly screaming
2. Decides to produce even more sound by setting up that rope trap
3. Does this fully aware that the goblins are in that tunnel, apparently no one has working ears
4. Decides to pick up enemy equipment, because goblins surely maintain their weapons decently
5. Doesn't just wipe off own sword or otherwise continue using it, making blood & fat excuse

I'm surprised only a scout came up & no one else either snuck out or noticed.

This is presuming that goblin sounds are similar to people & that none of the other sounds, including those made killing the gobs, would sent people in their direction. They gotta make more sounds in sex that sound wouldn't echo, nobody heard whatever noises priestess & her staff would have made including her chant & only payed attention to slamming the other end of the spear in the ground.

Either hobs are really fast at dragging people, GS should have been able to track based on sound alone or they got ears worse than any I've ever seen.

Goblin Slayer is based on D&D so clerics are divine casters and CAN wear armor as their powers come from following deities. Arcane casters are fugged though.

You shouldn't really skim with such low reading ability.
Because GobSlay is GodSlay, he knows that Goblin loot is in fine quality, because they keep raiding/raping/killing stuff.
He also understands that weapons have different uses, which is why is keeps using different weapons, which adds to his coolness.

>5. Doesn't just wipe off own sword or otherwise continue using it, making blood & fat excuse
But he do. Thats why he has a signature arming sword. If he gets to retrieve the "good gear" after a mission is another matter entirely.

>>159154328

People probably put goblins in the same category as big-ass spiders, rat infestations,slimes, or whatever other mindless beastie a novice adventurer might be expecting to fight in an RPG. Except classic human arrogance, they refuse to acknowledge goblins can actually fight smart if they have someone to lead them, thus newbies die tragically every now and then and nobody cares enough except for GS.

there is an ACTIVE WAR against an army of demons and a demon king.

most powerful adventurers are handling that.
It pays better, its more glamorous, and the potential for good loot is much higher.

Goblins, therefore, have had a population explosion because newbies get thrown at them, providing ripe females for rapid breeding.

>You shouldn't really skim with such low reading ability.
Anon, you're doing far worse. He didn't bring much beyond his sword, daggers, torch, rope & gasoline. That spear was scavenged from the cave. He literally picked up whatever is infront of him as he went on.
>fine quality, because they keep raiding/raping/killing stuff
That makes no sense whatsoever. The goblins use looted equipment from others or primitive knives they coat in their own shit. They're never shown cleaning them or anything besides using them. At best, they stole something from some noob party. I wouldn't be shocked if that equipment is rusty or badly kept.

You know what would make Goblin numbers make sense? If they were like WH40K Orcs. Just sentient Fungus that reproduce through spores. But then you'd lose the rape and some people wouldn't have a reason to read this.

I can also imagine that instead of going with Korne, GS would rouse the orcs in a mighty WAAAAAAAGH against the Goblins.

He can't predict the future, he planned as he went. He didn't decide "I'm going to find a spear or axe", he just found one & went from there.
>They just find another
It ain't that simple. For one, just about all goblin groups shown doesn't even have the equipment to arm every goblin with scavenged tools. They aren't shown to be capable of metalwork so they can't make their own swords. Much of whatever is scavenged from the goblins will either be primitive tools they made themselves or, if lucky, tools they scavenged from something else. At best, you're getting the hand-me-downs of hand-me-downs. The goblins don't appear a decent source of quality equipment to any standard.
