Goblin Slayer, Vol. 3 (light novel) (Volume 3)

I don't say this lightly but this just like the previous volumes is 10 stars out of 5. The writing is strong and of great quality up there with Shield Hero, Gate, Log Horizon, SAO, All You Need is Kill, RTW, Amber Sword and Mushoku Tensei. Only downside to Goblin Slayer is it's less elaborative and wordy but this in no way detracts from the novels.-Characters are consistent-Story is awesome, well written and extremely realistic in how things interact with one another-No asinine high school garbage-No brain dead, naive, lucky out the ass imbecile main character that extremely likely only through the sheer force of an armada of guardian angels to get out of childhood alive-No harem-Girls like the MC plausibly and with due cause-MC is still himself and single mindedAction wise this is a needed step down to show the more daily ongoings of things. Hopefully the next volume will have the same amount of action and some more alternate perspectives to build even further on the world and everyone in it. Up to now there is no fluff and plenty of space for elaboration of everything and anything. Can easily picture at the very very literal least five more novels without digression or degradation. If author slows the pace down and becomes more elaborative then easily even more novels.

It was pretty good, well written but since it's covering mostly a peaceful time in the story this isn't anywhere near as exciting as the previous novels. Also once the action DID start things went a little too well for our party, I wouldn't say they "barely scrapped by" in this one, the main villain was dispatched with little fanfare. And for the most part the story was mostly about Goblin Slayer's dates with only the last 30 pages being about some "sinister plot", but this can also be taken a good thing since things were shaken up abit here, keep the story arcs from getting stale. One thing I WILL say tho is that the introduction of a overarching story was introduced in this chapter: things that tie into some of the previous arcs and lay the groundwork for future ones. Overall a good read, if you're a fan of these books I don't think you'll be disappointed!

This was more slice of life. A little in-depth about Guild Girl and Cow Girl and their thoughts about the Goblin Slayer, and how they care about his well-being. It's sweet but it's too bad Goblin Slayer will never reciprocate the feelings of any of female love interest.I felt the last part of the book, the action part, Goblin Slayer and crew had a 'too much' successful victory. No damage or hurt people in the frontier town. Everyone in town is none the wiser to what happened that night. Only found dead goblins the next day. No one asked what the hell happen or the aftermath of the assassination attempt.It's a good story, even I felt Goblin Slayer had a slight change. I hope in a future volume, High Elf takes Goblin Slayer to a fun adventure. Hope.

The first novel was a series of goblin slaying quests, and more practically, an introduction into the world. The second was a long quest, and read just like a TTRPG session would.This is a little different. It focuses most on character building, especially with side characters rather than the main cast. Essentially revolving around a harvest festival, Goblin Slayer does his thing as two girls attempt to date him - it's amusing, but not action-packed.I intend no harm with a 3-star rating, but if you came from the first and second novels expecting more TTRPG style questing, you won't find much here. Enjoyable for the unwavering fanbase (of which I am very much onboard with), but for a reader who wants a DnD story, or who came from the first two novels expecting more campaigning, volume 3 won't make your ends meet.

Absolutely terrible. If you liked the idea of Goblin Slayer and was looking forward to a story where it's about the main character and his experiences with slaying his personnel demons, don't buy this book. The series started off great, but now it's treading into generic harem trash route or where every character falls in love with the protagonist. It had a good concept, but the author wants to focus on the romantic aspects while shoehorning in only one goblin slaying. The author floats around these girls that fawn over him, and almost throughout the entire book focused on their perspective on him! Almost nothing on the main guy.

This was a decent addition to the series. It toned down the violence from the past two volumes and emphasized the importance of the relationships Goblin Slayer has developed as an adventurer. Although GS is meant to be a stoic hero who barely talks, I feel the series would really benefit from him vocalizing his feelings more. He does it a little in Vol. 3, but I feel this could have used more character development on Goblin Slayer's part.

Around page 150 is when Goblin Slayer actually does any kind of goblin slaying. The first 150 pages are devoted to a common canned harem tropes. Lots of awkwardness, some hand holding, but no kissing or anything resembling a story. Skip this unless you just love wasting your time.

I gotta say. The Water Toen Arc was surprisingly nice D&D romp.And to see Goblin Slayer rage mode the Goblin Champion was just awesome!Plus, the over the top and unorthodox solutions to Goblin Slayer's adventures are always fun to read!

This one is slower than the previous two, which to some people will be a bad thin because it isn’t all about the main character slaying goblins. This is more about the ofher characters and how they have come to care for the odd Goblin Slayer and goes into their romantic interest in him too. I enjoyed this book as a little break from the usual cave dwelling slaughterhouse that is the norm. Hope to see another one like it later down the line.

A great continuation to a thrilling series. Easy to get into with likeable characters all round. Looking forward to seeing what challenges are thrown next at goblin slayer and his companions!

El calor de verano ha terminado y los frios vientos de otoño se hacen presentes, el festival de la cosecha se llevara acabo pronto, y para algunas personas eso significa una oportunidad para tener una cita, a menos que tu interés romantico sea Goblin Slayer, a el solo le importa exterminar goblins... ¿No es asi? ¿Como reaccionaria? ¿Valdría la pena intentarlo? ¿Aceptaria?Es hora de relajarse un poco y disfrutar el momento, después de todo nadie puede negar que el descanso es fundamental para un aventurero, solo se trata de una noche.Este volumen mantiene la formula de la franquicia pero con un toque de romance, narrativamente te da la sensación de ser un episodio de playa pero al ser Goblin Slayer esperas ansiosamente una boda roja, es simplemente ingenioso.Recuerden estar siempre alerta y reportar cualquier actividad goblin a su gremio mas cercano o directamente a Goblin Slayer, que actualmente se encuentra en una misión de patrulla seria.

No hay mucho que decir, es necesario comprar desde el tomo 1 ya que el anime cambia el orden de varios eventos, calidad usual de Yen Press. El arte que trae entre las paginas es muy bueno y pues las portadas traen a las waifus de la serie.

En este libro no se habla más que del festival de la cosecha.En el leerás la cita que tiene Goblin Slayer con la Granjera por la mañana y en la tarde con la chica del gremio (ese GS es todo un galán)Muy buen libro pero creo que si llega a haber animación, serviría excelente para película.
