Goblin Slayer Side Story: Year One, Vol. 1 (manga) (Goblin Slayer Side Story: Year One (manga), 1)

Goblin Slayer year one is the story about the Goblin Slayer and how he spend his first year as the Goblin Slayer. In an origin story that details how goblin slayer got to where he is as an adventurer and living with Cow Girl his childhood friend. In the dark DnD inspired Fantasy world of goblin slayer. Liking the first season of the anime I really want to sink my teeth into more Goblin Slayer and what better way than an origin story. Which was enjoyable, if you liked the manga or anime you should be right at home with this. I enjoyed the origin story for the most part. I was disappointed that they really didn't focus on the training aspect they just jumped straight to goblin slayer slaying goblins. He buys the armor and is now the Goblin Slayer we all recognize. I would have wanted more character development and him be this cold calculating goblin killer. It sets up for the next volume to finish off Year One. Other than that it's more Goblin Slayer a series you either like or hate at this point year one won't change your mind. As someone who likes Goblin Slayer it's a good read brutal, dark, and gritty a perfect fit for the first year of Goblin Slayer.

You want the origin of the Goblin Slayer in gritty detail? Then look no further. This series, called "Year One" shows you the Goblin Slayers tragic origin in dark detail and lays down the foundation for the man he will one day become. This also introduces us to old and new characters before they became great adventurers. Overall this is a tragic and endearing tale of a boy who lost it all and ultimately seeks revenge by slaying only Goblins. 10/10 for sure

Introduced the tragedy and what comes after. There is always a darkness in the world, a darkness everyone tries to ignore it slip past. In a way it parallels grooming gangs in the UK, Goblins are there taking advantage of the weak and helpless. Most of the worldviews them until they become too bad to ignore, them they are officially dealt with.

Great backstop series if you are already sold on the concept of Goblin Slayer. Lends some backstop to the character and gives you some early character development which is intelligently skipped over in the main series, which is not to say that this is bad. That said I don't think I would recommend new readers start here. Start with the main goblin slayer books see if its for you and then think about picking this up if you like it.

This manga shows the first year of Goblin Slayer embarking on his ultimate goal of killing all goblins. Of course the first volume is just set up the characters and a bit of the world. The art looks great during the fights and really sells the D&D inspired combat and world.

...And compliments perfectly the story from the light novel. If you like fantasy and/or especially if you like Dungeons and Dragons you will definitely like this series.

Enjoyed the 1st anime season, so I decided to pick up the books. Remember it's an eastern read, back to front, right to left. But once you get past that it's simple to read. Can't wait for the next season to drop.

I put off reading this one for a while because I didn't expect much from it. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it's just as good as the original series and maybe even better.

Gory, violent, and sometimes disturbing, everything you expect from goblin slayer, but at the same time deep and thoughtful story,Fills in goblin slayers backstory great, before he's became a goblin hunting expert, his first failures and victories, he's unskilled with little goblin knowledge but is determined to take his revenge, also love the fact you never see his full face even before he gets his trademark helmet,Not one for the kids, but a great very adult read,

a great little side story well worth the money

Fab condition and price arrived on time thanks
