Goblin Is Very Strong!



This is a fun little manga about Honwasabi, an ordinary Goblin Girl who out of sheer luck came upon a dying hero and killed him and leveled up. Then she found another....and another....and another. Before she knew it, she'd leveled all the way to 99 and became as strong as the Demon Lord himself! Now's she a terror in the newbie fields slaughtering newbie heroes by the truckloads so that no one can get strong enough to fight the Demon Lord as she makes money for each person she kills.

Lucky for the Heroes, death is cheap as God's protection will let a Hero revive again and again in the Cathedral for the low low price of half your money, and your Party Members will be safe in their coffins too! This series is so far a lighthearted comedy as you follow Honwasabi's adventures and her encounters with the people she meets, and all the hilariously out matched parties that she butchers.

Other important characters:

Spoiler for Aki:


Spoiler for Granite:


Spoiler for Mimit:


So far there are 11 chapters translated as the manga only started in Feb of 2017. It seems to be a monthly story. This is mostly a comedy series but there are it's serious moments as well, at the time of the post we just got the 11th chapter which ended on a cliffhanger as Aki and Granite were confronted by a Demon over twice Granite's lvl and over three times Aki's level during a key quest they were on to move to the next continent.

If you like RPGs, the Dragon Quest series, and comedy parodies in general give this series a go, I think you'll enjoy it the art is well done too and the author doesn't skimp on the world building either.

Did someone say "Goblin"?

Frequent use will make it dull and brittle; it's ill sheen reflecting the wielder's lost virtues and strength.

Pray for those whose image reflects off it, for it may only stop through reconcilatory waters or icy voids of the end.

That's what every goblin says before they meet the Slayer.

Tbf, Goblin Slayers and Goblin-chan's worlds are fundamental different. Both are fantasy settings, but Goblin Slayer lives in a real world fantasy where wearing a helmet actually is important and can save your life (something most fantasy series have never heard offf xD) while Goblin-chan lives in a world with levels where she is so OP due her high level, that nobody can seriously harm her. Expect maybe that 33% death chance spell of doom for which she usually wears an anti-magic amulet.

Yep, Goblin-chan and the Demon Lord throw down with each other for fun. Completely different universes. Goblin Slayers seems more like a Dungeons and Dragons kind of world while this story is more of a Dragon Quest universe.

Goblin Slayer world is called low fantasy world, with realistic as if real world and very limited magic.

After the snooze-fest of the last couple of chapters [like a year's worth] (Isekai stories should never trail off their focus, they are pretty bland to begin with), will this event (chapter 28) make scanlators start translating again?
