Muse Vietnam Adds Goblin Slayer Anime
posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Muse Vietnam announced on Monday that it will add the television anime adaptation of Kumo Kagyu's Goblin Slayer light novel series, beginning with the first episode on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. GMT +7, with new episodes debuting weekly.
The television anime series premiered in Japan in October 2018. The 12th and final episode of the series ended with a message stating, "Goblin Slayer will return." A theatrical anime episode titled Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown opened in theaters in Japan on February 1 earlier this year.
Yen Press has licensed both the novels and Kōsuke Kurose's manga adaptation, and it describes the series:
A young priestess has formed her first adventuring party, but almost immediately they find themselves in distress. It's the Goblin Slayer who comes to their rescue--a man who's dedicated his life to the extermination of all goblins, by any means necessary. And when rumors of his feats begin to circulate, there's no telling who might come calling next...
Takaharu Ozaki (Persona 5 the Animation -The Day Breakers-, Girls' Last Tour) directed the anime at WHITE FOX. Hideyuki Kurata (Read or Die, Made in Abyss, Kamichu!) was in charge of series composition and penned the scripts alongside Yousuke Kuroda (Jormungand, My Hero Academia). Takashi Nagayoshi (Girls' Last Tour animation director) designed the characters.
