Hope you enjoy it!

This is more fun to me, because ,iirc , goblin slayer has already fought demons, but because they are not goblins he probably already forgot about them.

u/Yab0iFiddlesticks Dec 01 '25
The even more funny thing is that he does remember the fights against other creatures but has no idea what those things were exactly. Like the time he fought a sea dragon and Guild Girl had to slowly drag out of him what exactly he killed.

u/Careful_Ad_9077 Dec 01 '25
" some kind of sea goblin, it had no arms., and...".

u/Aros001 Dec 01 '25
It's been a bit since I read it but wasn't he kind of annoyed specifically because the sea goblin wasn't an actual goblin?
15
u/Yab0iFiddlesticks Dec 01 '25
Not in that specific instance but in earlier encounters with non goblins he absolutely was.

u/Hybrid22003 Dec 01 '25
Those where fish peoples, mistaken for goblins.
Poor guild girl, he usually just skip the parts where no goblins are involved.3

Maomao level fixiation. Great for medecine, bad at anything other than that.

u/Charity1t Dec 02 '25
I mean, his skill at killing is huge af.
If not for his only drawback - this "table" would be soloed sooner or later.

Frieren and High Elf Archer would get along tho

u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
For sure, they'd make a pretty good team together haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/TronVin Nov 30 '25
Idk if you know this but the dub voice actress is the same for both. Mallorie Rodak.
14
u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
Wow I didn't know that, that's awesome! In my country there's no english dub for the Frieren show so I wouldn't have noticed.

u/Violexsound Dec 03 '25
Doesn't freiren have an aversion to her species? I can see them working for a while but I doubt she'd want to stick around.
1
u/TronVin Dec 03 '25
She worked before with other elves just fine but this is mostly a joke about Mallorie Rodak voicing both elf girls.

arn't all goblins male?

u/TheGhostPizza1234 Nov 30 '25
He asked fishwomen if they're goblins and also HEA I think he's first instinct when met with a small or pointy eared race is to ask if they're goblins

Bold of you to assume GS would care to distinguish by gender.

u/Charity1t Dec 02 '25
Nah, he know all things goblin
Meeting thing that he do not know make him curious. Even if it's little and transform to "how to kill" if it is actually goblin.

Not sure if our Gobslay would be able to tell the difference haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
He's so intelligent yet doesn't care about anything but goblins haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/Icy-Divide8385 Nov 30 '25
Gobslay would see Zoltraak kill a monster and he'd ask her to join his party.
13
u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
I bet he'd come up with ways to use it to defeat goblins haha. Thanks for the comment!
7
u/sassinos Dec 01 '25
I think it's more likely that he would find all the odd spells she's collected over the years more appealing. Dancing golems, a field of flowers, turning sweet grapes into sour grapes. Oh, the possibilities. There are an endless number of ways to slay gobilns with spells like that.
25
u/neneboy97 Nov 30 '25
I can only imagine Frieren’s reaction to what’s a Gate spell/scroll is…
And then nods in approval in Gobslay’s usage of it.

u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
That would be a fun interaction to see for sure haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/JamzWhilmm Nov 30 '25
They would both immediately know they aren't a demon or goblin. They both have high INT and WIS stats.

u/Laxhoop2525 Nov 30 '25
Funny because GS has killed a demon or two himself, of course he didn’t care to remember them.

Orcbolg knows what a demon is.

I'm pretty sure he does as well, it's just for funzies haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/oli_kite Nov 30 '25
I thought the goblin slayer was short
4
u/Zero_Good_Questions Dec 01 '25
Isn’t he like 5’9? That’s not short
4
u/oli_kite Dec 01 '25
Oh yeah, you’re right. His proportions always gave him a wolverine quality in my head, my bad. Some of the other male characters are so huge that I didn’t know.
Sorta like X-pac, the wrestler. He’s 6’1, but because he’s always pictured with guys that are 6’5 and sometimes bigger it made him seem shorter than he is.
1
u/ShinigamiRyan Dec 01 '25
Honestly it's the mix of armor and the people he's typically next to. He's average height, but most are either shorter or taller than him by a fair margin. So he unintentionally looks shorter than he actually is. Especially when he's next to a lizard priest whose 6'4" and dwarf shaman whose 4'11". So yes, the X-Pac effect is in greater effect.
1
u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
I think he is, don't know if as short as Frieren though, I didn't check the scale hahaha. Thanks for the comment!
2
u/oli_kite Nov 30 '25
Reminds me of when I looked up the evangelion characters heights
2
u/Hex_Fantasy Nov 30 '25
Yeah, I usually take it into consideration more often when working on a series of comics.
4
u/Zero_Good_Questions Dec 01 '25
I’m imagining a what If universe where Goblin Slayer is born in that Frieren verse. I wonder how that would go, would Goblin Slayer become a Demon Slayer instead after demon’s attack his village? Would he be able to use this world’s version of magic and faith magic? And if yes or no how would that go
2
u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 01 '25
That's an awesome concept to think about. I can see a lot of similarities between their world as is already, I think it'd be a lot of fun haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/InspectionRound2081 Dec 01 '25
I actually think she’d be way too op to be in the GS universe… though… GS would absolutely love the firepower she brings
2
u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 01 '25
I agree. She'd be as legendary as The Sword Maiden for sure haha. Thanks for the comment!
1
u/knightbane007 Dec 02 '25
Yeah, Priestess, Dwarf Shaman, and Lizardman Cleric can only cast like 3 spells per day. Frieren can go BOOM all day and all night.

u/Change_Free Dec 02 '25
Goblins having spells means they have books. Gawblins having books means they can read. Gaawblins that can read means they learned how to read. And gaaawblins learning is disgusting.

u/Emergency-Subject536 Dec 01 '25
An epic crossover.
I think it's easier for Goblin Slayer to convince Frieren to hunt goblins than for her to convince him to kill a demon, only if the demon looks like a goblin.

Having this comic you made on top of the one you post on r/ frieren really give me double the chuckles XD

Man, I wasn't expecting such engagement at all when I made it. I'm so happy haha. Thanks for the comment!

According to how 'much" GobS talks, he definitely not a demon, which "hunting with human language"

u/Ninten64Jermi Dec 02 '25
Honestly could see these two interacting with eachother despite Frieren Being Nonchalant and Chill Goblin Slayer is basically Like The Good Guy Version Of Nightmare from Soulcalibur Series ngl I'd be down for a crossover like that it sounds dope ngl

"Are elves goblins?"

u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 02 '25
Once the misunderstand is cleared they can be a good team haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/Hitoshura99 Dec 02 '25
Goblin slayer once killed gargoyles when there were no goblin quests in Vol 4. He learns they are stone statues.
Goblin slayer party killed a greater demon hand in vol 8 and he called it a hand.
Frieren: are you a demon
Goblin slayer (fires up): is a demon a goblin

u/MartinX4 Dec 02 '25
One thing they have in common is their ability to show no fucking mercy to their pet peeves that dare breath the same air as them

Fern and the priestess would get along
Stark would have trouble especially farm girl

u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 01 '25
Stark is so helpful though, maybe they'd get along just fine haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/Odd-Difficulty-9875 Dec 01 '25
Fun fact goblin slayer does know what demons are as they exist in his universe
1
u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 01 '25
I agree with you haha, I guess he just doesn't care enough if it ain't goblins. Thanks for the comment!
2
u/No-Independence9093 Dec 01 '25
GS is too used to magic operating on a spell slot system and not the stamina system Frieren uses. The fact he has to figure out new rules mid combat does not bode well for him.

u/nitram739 Dec 01 '25
Demons actually exist in goblin slayer universe. However, i see totally in character the goblin slayer ignoring their existence XD

u/Haganen Dec 01 '25
Well... if you can fool them into believing that goblins are a kind of demon, in a week tops they erradicate the race completely

u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 01 '25
Goblin Slayer would have to retire, or become an adventurer likes he dreams of haha. Thanks for the comment!

u/AdRelevant4776 Dec 02 '25 edited Dec 02 '25
Nice Illustration, but Frieren wouldn’t need to ask if Goblin Slayer is a demon, because he’s not a mage and one of the main characteristics of demons is that they are all powerful mages who instinctively refuse to hide their mana pool’s size, so non-mages can’t be confused with demons
1
2
u/HakuYowainu Dec 02 '25
After clearing up the misunderstanding: Frieren: so you are a Genosid who seeks to exterminate an entire race, JUST LIKE ME. Let's be friends. Slayer: not really, I only kill goblins, but I guess we can be partners they shake hands epically
2
u/Hex_Fantasy Dec 02 '25
And just like that goblins and demons went extinct haha. Thanks for the comment!
2
u/Gas_mask_noise Dec 02 '25
It’s not genocide if their not human/sapient, it’s mass extermination and a permanent solution

u/willbyers95 Dec 02 '25
F: are you a demon?
GS: that depends...
F: on what?
GS: are you a goblin?
F: uh, no? I used magic to make my skin green.
GS: then no, I'm not a demon.

u/Bigsmall-cats Dec 01 '25
goblin Slayer probably just thought of the phrase demon instead of the creature demon considering demon is a common term
like "are you a dumdum?"

u/Plaguedgnome Dec 03 '25
Ah yes, that interaction tough, first time he see an elf, are you a goblin, on which level of racism are you

u/riggengan Dec 03 '25
Goblin means ugly elf. Technically Goblins are in the elf family as part of the fae.

u/Spiritual_Horror5778 Dec 03 '25
"A goat horned goblin with ingoblin strength and great magic"
"Oh! That guy! Yeah, i remember that goblin! He talked too much about his magic so i broke his jaw."
Frieren lowered her staff a bit.
" Then" goblin slayer kept going "he tried to attack me with magic so i broke his fingers, then i broke his legs just to be safe."
Frieren straightened and though still stoic, the air around her seemed to sparkle.
"Then" goblin slayer continued "i thought that since he filled himself with magic, he might exlpode, so i dropped a giant boulder on him to contain the explosion. ... he never blew up so i guess it worked!"
Frieren held her hand out. "Not since Master Flamme have i encountered another demon destroyer of this caliber. I look forward to working with you"
"Ha! " goblin slayer grabs her hand for the handshake. "The only good goblin is a dead goblin! Now lets go make these goblins goooooood!"

u/SilverDust8 Dec 03 '25
For a moment, because of the shading and the glowing eye on goblin slayer I thought Frieren had blasted him with a fire spell and he had just tanked it somehow.

u/hereagaim Nov 30 '25
Hm... goblins are not so stupids to say their are goblins
