Parents guide

A graphic rape scene in the first episode.

Notorious for its first episode rape scene. An inexperienced party gets caught off guard by goblins. One of the girls is raped. We see them tear off her clothes and stand behind her. She is positioned in a way where we can't see anything explicit and then we get a quick cut of nails going into her flesh followed by her crying. The camera cuts away as we see the surviving party leave with her cries in the background. Not too explicit but very emotionally distressing.

Cow Girl, Goblin Slayer's childhood friend, is shown to be nude on occasions.

Many rape scenes or ripping of clothes, mostly in form of short flashbacks.

Many women are shown nude, either with hair, shadows, or bits of clothing covering sensitive parts, or without nipples drawn.

A woman's nipples are drawn under her shirt. This scene lasts for about 5 minutes.

Many female characters are drawn with unrealistically giant breasts. These are animated several times to bounce or jiggle.

Rape, sexual assault, and sexual violence are very common themes throughout the show, with characters having flashbacks to graphic rape scenes. The trauma and impact of such experiences are common topics in the show.

Yes, there is the infamous rape scene in season 1, but it's off screen, you don't actually see it occurring except maybe as a shadow. The rest of the show alludes to what goblins do to women but doesn't show it. The rest of the nudity in the show is done in the same fashion as most animes where the nipples are either not drawn or obscured along with other private parts.

Bloody scenes

The show is a very dark, mature and graphic anime. Goblin Slayer maims and brutally kills adult and child goblins, along with demons and ogres. The show also contains a very controversial sexual assault scene in its debut episode.

There are frequent uses of Damn, Hell and Bastard. Infrequent use of Shit in the dub.

The goblins may appear frightening for some.
