I like how when he agrees easily to the no drowning, burning, or poisoning the goblins he just takes it as a challenge and then finds a way to blow them all up
For the record, "waterboarding" was a very bad translation. They weren't telling him not to torture goblins, they were telling him not to kill the goblins with water. For example, flooding the entire nest. In the light novels he floods a goblin nest with sea water and basically renders all the nearby farmland totally barren.
GS is insanely creative, he will come up with new things on the spot if given the chance. 3 restriction won’t stop him from messing up the goblins completely
Waterboarding as a means of killing is slow and requires a great deal of preparation, but is slow and brutal. It is contrary to the efficiency metric by which Goblin Slayer's more brutal characteristics are justified. Put it another way, it's damaging to him and to his mission of killing goblins. Fire and poison both have severe blowback issues that are exacerbated by Slayer's "kill and leave" style of dealing with Goblins. He doesn't clean up his messes and these are messes that can kill people even if they ARE cleaned up.
They put themself in danger by limiting his options actually. When one nearly slaughtered by goblins should put mind to childish elf. Why people don't say how stupid it is?
Rusampler actually it was because his method kind of didn’t care about the whole collateral part of thing with him starting forest fire occasionally or poisoning some water and usually doing anything’s that can get to the whole killing goblins part
"He agreed surprisingly easily" Uuuh, girls, you DO remember he litterally once opened a gate TO THE BOTTOM OF THE FREAKING OCEAN with a scroll that was originally meant to exterminate a nest ? What makes you think you can out-wit him in slaying Goblins ?
@@Blackpapalink yeah let's remember that Rimuru is a freakin hack!! I love him but slimes should not be that dangerous!!

"He agreed surprisingly easily" Little did they know that he ahd many other ways of killing Goblins than just those three. If anything, they just told him to be more creative.
Solar Flare to elaborate people, (spoiler) he created a dust explosion, then had the dwarf collapse an entire cave onto themselves in the name of victory. this guy is nuts.
The entire reason why the girls didn't want him to do any of that it's because he could affect or damage the city. He couldn't poison the Goblins because it could poison the water supply under the city. He couldn't use fire because it could damage the ruins and make the ceiling cave in. And water boarding the Goblins would pollute the water with their corpses. They were very specific on why he couldn't do any of these options in the light novel.
@@jasongiddens8749 I am pretty sure author of LN was like: "Damn it, my ideas of using fire and water are not entertaining. ... Screw it, let's just make more sword fight and call it like he is challenged by smb else"

Priestess knows how ruthless and cunning Goblin Slayer can be; Elf Archer is only just learning. Both of them don't want collateral damage, which is why they only target methods of killing that can get out of control. Sea water can render farms worthless. Flames can destroy nearby structures and forests. Poison can leak and sicken innocents.
"Hmm, kinda had all these scrolls filled with poison and fire right here... But alright. I like to get back to basics every once in a while. Brute force it is!"
Of course he agreed immediately. Handicaps just keep things from getting boring. It's like telling the Doom Slayer he has to go an entire mission without bludgeoning demons or otherwise making them explode in a cloud of gore.
Everyone talking about the girls restricting him, no one pointing out that they are telling him not to use very bad tools with a tendency to hurt people other than your target. Goblin Slayer is damaged. His ability to care about anything more than his obsession is weak to nonexistent. This is someone who literally has to be told "burning down the entire forest is bad, so don't start a fire to kill the goblins" or "poisoning the water/food supply could kill the villagers too, which would be bad, so don't use poison." Basically the theme is "don't kill the goblins by making a worse problem for the villagers to deal with."
After seeing what the goblins are like in the first episode, that kind of collateral damage is acceptable. Once GS has been called in to solve your goblin problem, you have to make peace with the fact that he is nuclear option. He'll kill those goblins, guaranteed, even if it means the surrounding area becomes barren and lifeless.
How to negotiate with a goblin slayer:... Goblin goblin goblin Hopgoblin goblin goblin big goblin goblin king goblin goblin really big goblin goblinchampion goblin.
Why dont they want him to use fire, water, or poison to kill the goblins? It's much more efficient and he clearly cares about nothing more than killing them.
A show that's brutal all the time would get stale. The cute moments balance it out. Both moments are important cuz the cute moments show how everyone wants to have fun, but the brutal moments remind u that they can't ignore the growing threat of the goblins.
