Comment from Spider Cochlea
Domo, I'm Spider Cochlea.
For those of you who know me, thank you very much. For those of you who know me, thank you for your continued support.

It's been almost 10 years since I started creating on the Internet, and I feel like I've come a long way before I realized it.
It seems like it has been a decade of TRPGs, novels, movies, and American comics.
I had dreamed about it since I was a child, but I never dreamed it would become a reality.
Eventually I woke up in bed and said, "Anime?　TRPG? Haha, what are you talking about?
One cooked dream super scary.

Goblin Slayer is a work that is filled with so many of my favorite things, and it must be a very happy thing that so many people found it interesting.
So I would like to thank my friends and colleagues, everyone who supported me online, the administrators of the sites that compiled my work, the people at GA Bunko, Mr. Kannatsuki for the illustrations, Mr. Kurose for the comic book, Mr. Adachi and Mr. Eida for the Gaiden, Group SNE for the TRPG version, all the voice actors, the bookstore staff, the readers who read the book I would like to thank all the readers who have read our books, as well as the many people whose help is too numerous to mention here.

I will continue to do my best in writing the book, and I hope you will enjoy the anime as well.
I hope you will enjoy the anime as well!

Congratulations to everyone involved for the decision to make an anime.
I would also like to thank all the readers who have picked up the work.

Gobusure is a work with a rather serious worldview, so I was nervous about whether it would be accepted by readers, considering the recent trends, but more and more books have been published, and before I knew it, it had been made into an anime.
As the person in charge of the illustrations, I am very happy.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

It was a lot of hard work to draw the characters, but I am very happy to think that I will be able to see them in action.
I am looking forward to the anime broadcast.

I'm looking forward to seeing the anime broadcast.
Goblin Slayer
Broadcast date: Scheduled to air in 2018
