There's always D&D references but this volume was out of control hahaha!
I'm enjoying this quite a lot, there's was an interesting flashback about Goblin Slayer's past that i would like to know more about. Also, there's was some character development and they kibda showed you how our hero learns things by just asking hahaha! It was interesting, they reminde you that he's not a superhero, tehre's always someone that knows more about things than you and the best thing to do is ask.
There's a creature that appears in this volume that, when i saw it i was like 'HOLY SHIT!!' but everything ended kinda fast for my taste, i would've like for the fight to last a little bit longer.
Overall, great volume.

Piąta część serii jest dalszą kontynuacją misji zleconej przez najwyższą kapłankę, która dla doświadczonej drużyny miała być czystą formalnością. Kanały miasta skrywają jednak swoje przerażające sekrety, które będą mieć wpływ na cały fantazyjny świat. Punktem kulminacyjnym trwającym walki stało się pojawienie się czepiona w otoczeniu całej hordy goblinów. Grupa bohaterów na czele z tytułowym „zabójcą” musi więc dać z siebie wszystko, aby zniwelować liczebną przewagę wroga i pokonać wymagającego przeciwnika. Zdecydowanie nie będzie to łatwa potyczka i przyniesie ona wiele bólu i cierpienia. Dla odbiorcy oznacza to kolejną solidną dawkę widowiskowej walki i hektolitry przelanej krwi (nie tylko goblinów).
W tomiku tym znajdziemy wszystko to, co składa się na dobre dark fantasy. Jest spora dawka widowiskowej akcji i mocnej dramaturgii. Obok tego twórca serwuje czytelnikowi ciekawą retrospekcję pokazującą urywek przeszłości głównego bohatera. Stopniowo odkrywa on również zawiłości wykreowanego świata i odsłania nowe elementy głównego wątku. Pokazuje on także znaczący rozwój niektórych postaci i ewolucję drużyny. Całość treści dopełnia lekka nutka humoru (charakterystyczna dla serii) oraz kilka scen „ecchi”, które może nie są potrzebne, ale trzeba do nich przywyknąć.
W kwestiach wizualnych nie ma wielkiego sensu się nadmiernie rozpisywać, gdyż seria cały czas prezentuje ten sam niezły poziom. Sceny akcji w Goblin Slayer #5 są naprawdę dobrze przygotowane, epatując dynamiką i wyraźną brutalnością. Kiedy scenariusz tego wymaga, artysta potrafi kreślić tutaj również bardziej „delikatne” sceny (najczęściej nacechowane humorem).

It's been quite awhile since I last visited this series, but I was cleaning my room, and in one of my to-read piles, I discovered I'd picked up volume five at some point. I wasn't sure how easy it would be to hop back in after so long, but a bit of violent fantasy sounded good. And while I'd forgotten a few of the plot points, Orcbolg's adventures were still accessible--that's indicative of a simplistic plot, but I still contend that the characters are more likable and fully realized than anyone with the placeholder name of "Priestess" or "Elf" has a right to be. Seeing them get put in an actual life-threatening situation didn't lose any of its dramatic impact, despite the time that's passed.
That said, they don't really cover a lot of ground in this volume, when all's said and done. After the big fight, there's a lot of regrouping, and flat-out relief from the characters at still being alive. Even so, it isn't long before they're back in the action, and we get to see that the goblins are in league with some heavier hitters than it seemed. There's some creative strategizing and a decent cliffhanger toward the end, and it really made me miss my old D&D campaign--my players in that came up with some pretty inventive solutions to their predicaments, too.
Anyway, this is a solid volume with some good action, team building, and a bit of progress in the overall plot. I have a feeling volume six will push most of those elements even further, given the way this one ends.

Goblin slayer continues to be what it always has been. Big brutal battles, some rapey goblins, and more death. This one has our famous Slayer get a little background and take down a HUGE Goblin King or whatever, or least damage him. The rest is building towards new monsters and then another cliffhanger ending. Overall, was decent fun quick read. A 3 out of 5.

This one is the continuation of the mission from Sword Maiden. The team are ambushed below the city by a goblin champion and the battle is pretty intense. It was an action-packed volume, the art is amazing as usual, but what I like best are the "normal" scenes where we discover more of the characters.

Troublante ressemblance avec Baldur s Gate Dark Alliance... coïncidence ?

Volume abbastanza interessante che ci fornisce qualche informazione sul passato di Goblin Slayer (sul suo maestro e sul suo addestramento, ma spero che ci venga spiegato tutto meglio) e che pone l'accento sulla sua evoluzione caratteriale.
Lo scontro contro il goblin campione si mette male per il nostro gruppetto di avventurieri, tanto che ne escono tutti abbastanza malconci, soprattutto la piccola sacerdotessa e l'ammazza-goblin. Con l'aiuto della Fanciulla della Spada (altra figura interessante dal passato drammatico), i due si riprendono: alcune pagine vengono dedicate alla crescita del legame tra i vari elementi del gruppetto, tanto che lo stesso Goblin Slayer farà dei piccoli sforzi per mostrarsi più collaborativo e meno schivo, arrivando persino a condividere alcune delle sue parole con la piccola sacerdotessa.
Anche questo volume si chiude su un momento ad alta tensione, visto che i nostri disagiati trovano una sorta di portale che ha permesso ai goblin di infestare i sotterranei della città. Mi sa che c'è ancora tanto lavoro da fare per i cinque avventurieri...

Way, way back in the golden age of Saturday morning cartoons, there was a D&D series on CBS. One of my favorite episodes was the one featuring the beholder. Such an adroitly scripted show about how the perception others have of you helps shape you. A fraud becomes a hero and saves the day. Anyhow, this volume has none of the nuance of that cartoon, but it did introduce a baddie that invoked some good memories, so... The art at the start of this one was better than past volumes. Action is clearer or maybe I just really like that full page splash with GS turning on full intimidation mode on the remaining goblins with left eye aglow. The page is almost completely black but intent is clearly and fully communicated. Still, plenty of cringe-worthy elements in this one. And, the bonus stories keep getting longer while saying less, and less. Do yourself a favor and look up that old cartoon!

Want some blood, violence, and sexual moments without actually being hentai? Then read Goblin Slayer vol. 5 and let the carnage begin.
This volume has some good background moments with Goblin Slayer recalling some of his training in his youth and a brief glimpse into Sword Maiden's past but this volume shows us the very real possibility that if Goblin Slayer makes a mistake then there can be dire consequences. Thankfully with a little team work and a not so bright but resourceful Goblin Slayer keeping his cool the goblin slaying can continue into future volumes.
Thankfully with the dark subjects that come with this series we are still getting lighter moments such as downtime eating iced cream with Priestess and the dangers of exploding powder with High Elf Archer which give us a nice break from the blood and sexual deviancy of goblins.

Another great book in the series and a brilliant read.
It covers chapters 22 to 26 and at the start it gives the reader a very sharp lesson in how quickly things can go against an adventuring party. This is a brutal world where a miscalculation can result in death.
I enjoyed the short story at the end of this book which highlights that even the greatest of adventurers and heroes have hopes and fears that can't be seen by those who surround them and it was rather touching.

Eu particularmente gostei bastante da história do quinto volume. Volume qual posso dizer que recheado de ação. Existem momentos da leitura que nós realmente não conseguimos imaginar como eles irão sair dessa. mas eles sempre saem, pelo menos por enquanto. E o que mais me interessou, particularmente nesse quinto volume, foi um dos inimigos, o qual Goblin Slayer e sua turma enfrentaram no final da história. Simplesmente sensacional.

This volume touches on the extremes with both intense action and comedy. It's suprising how well the moments work together though. One wcan only hope for more installments of this quality moving forward.

Good continuation, the tension is rising with each volume... Goblin Slayer goes against all the predictable nature of similar fantasy based stories.

Mantiene la calidad, avanzando en la trama de fondo y proponiendo aventuras cortas nuevas.

This is a long arc and I'm enjoying it. It's nice to see Orcbolg be more human.

Rescue the sword maiden, the one who lost innocence by the goblins and has difficulties to move forward because of that.

Ekip ilk kez bozguna uğramanın eşiğine geldi bu ciltte. Dövüşler güzel geçse de hala yer yer ne olup bittiği anlaşılmıyor. Bu ciltte öncekilere göre biraz daha karakter ilişkilerine odaklanılmak istense de pek olmuyor bence. Ana karakterlerin arasında bir gelişme olsun diye uğraşılsa da pek hissedemiyorum. Atışıp duran cüce-elf ilişkisi dışında pek bir ilişki mümkün gözükmüyor. Bunun bir light novel uyarlaması olduğu düşünülürse belki orijinal eserde daha iyi verilmiştir.
