If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

the sword and shield girl is agrias from fft, not saber. thats what she was in the 2chan thread. and the colors and hairstyle match. i think agrias was sword and board and not two hander too, though its been a while

Everyone's a reference since the original Web Novel didn't have an artist so they just used... official character designs for the characters. Truth was just... Truth from FMA while Illusion was Madokami. Guts is Guts, Agrias is Agrias etc. etc. And when official art was done they just... went from literally those official characters to spoofing them.

That's the story I heard anyway

Oh, no, it goes even deeper.

The very original version of Goblin Slayer was literally a chyoa thread on 2chan. The characters were represented by copypasted ASCII art of those characters. There were gags like ASCII art of wizardry dungeon screens and crappy memes, the literal jp equivalent of 'you are about to be eaten by a grue.' at one point a battle was depicted entirely in final fantasy 1 recolors

When it became a web novel they just traced the ASCII art. And then when it got official art they just spoofed those characters.

So when are we getting a prequel adventures anime? Anime fans like misery porn and I'm sure you can shave off the fact that it's Elder Scrolls fanfic.

Year One the manga already exists. It's not really all that misery porn beyond depicting the slayer's backstory, which was hinted at already (Village was destroyed, watched the death of everyone he loved, was almost killed in his escape before Bilbo Baggins saved him and trained him to kill Goblins)


Turns out I'm extremely dumb!

I actually did not know that, I know it was a web novel, then a light novel, then 3 manga and then an anime. I didn't know it originated on 2ch.

Yup, looked it up, certainly a thing. The crazy ways things get their starts in this world.

Maybe anime reddit is different but how could you suspect that reddit opinions of a show focusing on women that spent half of the latest episode on them talking about how to deflect workplace harassment and pushy boyfriends would be anything less than extremely trustworthy?

It's a decent watch.
The main thing is just about a bunch of weirdos hanging out in their house, making jokes. There's one or two long skits each episode.
Aside from that there's the improv segments at the end of each episode, where the voice actors just do little improv games in character.

The CG animation isn't great, as should be evident, but I got used to it quickly and it sort of works for the style of the show.
