the narrators/voice actors are amazing

Once again this is my favorite audiobook light novel production because the narration and voice acting is just so good and immersive.

creativity

Goblin Slayer often has really creative ways for its characters to use their abilities or their surroundings. this is the best one yet.

Same Thing All Over Again

This felt like a copy and paste of the last several books. There just isn't anything interesting happening. Goblin slayer slays goblins. No world building, no other plot lines, just goblin slaying. Even the meager character growth seems stunted. I had to listen to this in small chunks to even get through it.

The narrators did a good job as always. I do, however, think I'm going to riot if I have to hear one more goblin grunt or priestess screech.
