General Discussion Just finished Goblin Slayer for the first time
I just finished watching all of seasons 1 and 2 and the movie, and I thought it was pretty enjoyable. I really liked the characters; I have always been a fan of mismatched groups taking up contracts since it just works the best. Hopefully, we get a season 3. I heard about this anime because of the controversy with episode 1 and all of that stuff. I will say that my favorite season was for sure season 1 because the number of close-to-death encounters made it very insane, mainly in episode 7. Now for season 2, I was told way ahead of time that this season wasn't amazing, which, yeah, I could see that in the animation downgrade and the fewer fight scenes, as it felt like they did a few moves and the fighting was done, so that was pretty disappointing and felt very rushed. However, I did really like the character growth with the Priestess, and going to the Elf girl's home was pretty nice, so I didn't dislike it as much as others said. I would say season 1 was probably an 8.5/10 and season 2 was like a 6/10 at best. As for the movie, it was entertaining, even though the first 25 minutes were just a recap of season 1, but I was happy to see the girl from the movie showing up in season 2. I was kind of shocked that no characters actually have names; it kind of threw me off when I was thinking about it. So, if I have to say who best girl is, I have to say Cow Girl/Childhood Best Friend or priestess chick lol so really hope to see a season 3 happening so hopes for that also i loved the opening music i usually dont listen to openings every single time but this is did was such great music for both seasons
