Goblin slayer is a true high point in anime because it stars a protagonist who is actually on the spectrum. The plot of Goblin slayer isn't about the adventure or the rape or DOOM or Skyrim or whatever, the plot is about an autistic kid moving into a new town and working as an exterminator, and making friends along the way with people who either help him at his job, or try to convince him there's more to life than doing what he loves.
It's a classic heartwarming tale.
Then a giant lizard shows up
After reading this and Sakurasou
I figured I'm just a sucker of the message there is a beauty to be found in a seemingly hard and futile life.
There's something there that I think has been overlooked- they're seen as vermin, and exterminated, and the few survivors of those exterminations themselves escape and grow up wanting to take revenge on the ones who killed their families, and they do the same, prompting more Exterminatus, and so on. They're clearly intelligent enough to set traps, to make tools, to communicate with each other, and it goes on and on.
Maybe at some point gobboes were an actual race, up until they lost a big bad war, or were slaughtered by some kingdom or another. Would they have ever actually had a culture of their own?
Hey, you shut up, lizard is best girl.

We don't agree on some things, but we can agree there. Though I consider every character of the main cast best girl.Hey, you shut up, lizard is best girl.
Pretty sure the "evil" races of the setting were created explicitly by the gods to beso they have someone to send theirNPC'sevilagainst.PC'sadventurers
It's kind of like Warcraft lore where there's all sorts of history and grudges and betrayal in-universe but really it's all just an excuse for the Horde and the Alliance to always be at war so PvP can happen.
shit BL says
Once and always and nevermore.
High Elf Archer obviously is at least 60% comic relief, what with her getting plastered whenever she has booze available.
Lizard Shaman is best bro.
Rancher’s Niece/Cow Girl and Priestess both give me the feels. Which do I ship with D&D Emiya?!?
Likes attention, shiny objects, and... a ball of yarn?

No D&D Luvia. That is a character type I can see showing up
"Only in my company, will you not be a monster"
anywhere than here
There are two types of people in the world.
Those who like Elf Archer the best, and those who are wrong. :V
My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
The only elf in my heart is Danmachi's Ryu.
All others are mere pretenders, across time, space, and franchises.
