Goblin Slayer Season 2 Release Date: Cast, Trailer And Where To Watch!

by

Goblin Slayer, the contentious fantasy anime, is set to return in October 2023. After its first episode caused a sensation in the anime world, the series quickly became a fan favorite. Though Goblin Slayer’s contentious debut can be unsettling, its return is eagerly awaited.

Kumo Kagyu’s Goblin Slayer light novel series debuted in 2016 with art by Noboru Kannatsuki. It has since been converted into a manga by Kosuke Kurose, as well as an anime adaptation, published in 2018, and an animated feature film, Goblin Slayer: Goblin’s Crown, released in 2020.

The series has flourished on its novel approach to adventure cliches and role-playing elements, with each character named after their role rather than having distinct, personal identities. The protagonist, only known as Goblin Slayer, is a long cry from traditional fantasy heroes.

After witnessing his village being demolished by goblins, his only goal in life is to murder every single one of these nasty monsters, whom other adventurers regard as minor annoyances. While his “colleagues” seek the most grandiose quests and rewards, Goblin Slayer’s single-minded goal makes him an outcast in the adventuring community, but he doesn’t mind because he has more goblins to destroy.

Goblin Slayer Season 2 Release Date

White Fox produced the first season of Goblin Slayer, but it was reported that Liden Films will produce the second season. Other anime produced by the company include Berserk, Tokyo Revengers, Call of the Night, and the recently released The Legendary Hero is Dead. Crunchyroll revealed the first key visual in June, the first of six that will be released monthly.

The Goblin Slayer anime’s official Twitter/X account announced in August that the highly anticipated second season will be published in October 2023.

The news is accompanied by a debut trailer, which shows more of the cruelty and gore that have made the dark fantasy series renowned. At the same time, the season’s beginning and ending themes were unveiled. The opening song will be “Entertainment” by Mili, and the closing song will be “Kasumi no muk e” by Yuki Nakajima.

Goblin Slayer Season 2 Trailer

AnimeUS released a small teaser trailer for the new season earlier this year. It was quite similar to the trailer for the first season, emphasizing the titular hero’s fundamental philosophy: “I’m not saving the world. “All I’m doing is killing goblins.” The first complete trailer was published in August, showcasing a lot of horrific goblin deaths, as promised.

There isn’t much new information in the clip that fans won’t recognize, though Blade Maiden could be returning to battle, given the alteration in her look and the blade in her hands. The entire Goblin Slayer party will also be returning.
