Goblin Slayer Side Story Year One Vol. 11

After getting a salary raise, Spearman entreats the blacksmith for a magic spear. Meanwhile, Goblin Slayer encounters a magic weapon of his own—but from the other side! A goblin has got its grubby hands on a sword that blazes with a pale blue light… And as if well-equipped goblins weren’t enough, he will have to face up against a giant eye monster, whose gaze can melt stone! If only Goblin Slayer had some help and advice from a more experienced adventurer…

Series Overview: Three days after his sister’s death, he finally regained the will to move. In the aftermath of a goblin raid, a lone boy mourns the loss of his village, his family.

Five years later, that same boy visits a city on the frontier and becomes an adventurer. Despite being the lowest rank and wholly inexperienced, the young adventurer immediately accepts a quest and sets out alone to raid a goblin lair. His mind already burning with a clear vision of his calling, the legend of Goblin Slayer begins.

Title Notes:

Goblin Slayer’s popularity continues to swell, quickly building a dedicated fan base and becoming one of most highly anticipated releases from Yen Press.

An anime adaptation of the main series began airing in October 2018, significantly increasing popularity for the franchise.

Worlds with “Dungeons & Dragons”-type settings are becoming increasingly popular, crossing outside of the typical community for manga and light novels, and Goblin Slayer falls squarely in this category.
