Story 7/10 -
The narrative mostly progresses like a game. Goblin Slayer gets a quest to kill goblins, saves people, and the cycle repeats. There's plenty of action, plenty of gore, and plenty of other characters that join the main protagonist. The story does get kind of repetitive since there isn't much variety. It's pretty much the quests get harder and harder and newer types of goblins are revealed. A bit of rape is also included, not for anyone's fetishes, but to indicate the cruel and merciless actions of goblins. I hope the story gets more interesting or takes an odd turn because, as of now, it seems too predictable and straightforward. I'm still enjoying it for the most part, though.

Character 8/10 -
Goblin Slayer is a badass. If you like these types of characters, then prepare to love this one. He has earned the respect (and maybe affection) of Guild Girl, one of the receptionists working at the guild, and has saved the main heroine, a young priestess, who has joined his adventure on hunting goblins. Keep in mind, Goblin Slayer is not overpowered since it's been shown countless times that a strong foe might overpower him, but his wits and smarts have always prevailed in the end with his unique ways of killing his greatest foe.

The other characters aren't really that special besides Goblin Slayer of course, but they all maintain their role perfectly. None of them get annoying, and it's nice seeing Goblin Slayer interact with all of them. He's been changing since the beginning for the better but still retaining that man-of-few-words badassery. All of the characters compliment each other and are entertaining to watch as the series continues on.

Art 7/10 -
The gore, the combat, the slices, all of that is very well drawn. Props to the illustrator. The action can get messy (as in blood, blood, blood) which might make the panels a bit hard to read, but you can pretty much tell the gist of what's happening. Doesn't really get in the way. And the character designs are not bad either. I didn't really like the rape though, but I understand that it's supposed to be a realistic depiction of the main enemy.

Overall 7/10 -
It's a fun manga to read. Never once has it annoyed or infuriated me. All the characters are, at least, not troublesome or obnoxious. The story could be more interesting but it will do for now. And the comedy is nice, too. If you like a badass protagonist, pretty female characters and some goblin slaying then start this manga right away.
