I always seem to recall plenty of female adventurers dying, the wizard girl included and even Priestess received wounds that would have been fatal. Goblin Slayer’s sister who wasn’t even a adventurer still bit it. It makes you wonder for every girl they manage to capture and keep alive, how many girls were just stupidly thrown away or lost and discarded during captivity?

I mean it’s their only way of continuing their species, right? Is it really a good idea to be so reckless and wasteful with what’s providing your potential future? Then again women kind of get treated like shit by their own and the goblins are even worse than people so I guess what they’re doing is only natural.

There is one thing that bothers me about the Goblin Slayer world; why would they send female adventurers on a goblin quest? just seems like they're supplying the goblins with what they need to continue growing in number. Female adventurers should be barred from goblin quests, as well as any quest where enemies and monsters could gain numbers from a female's presence. just tactically unsound to bring females to the monsters that need them.

I ain't no authority on Goblin Slayer lore (Tho I did watch the anime) but perhaps their society values freedom of choice above practicality. Perhaps they allow anyone to do any profession, even if it ends terribly for them. Perhaps it necessary because adventurers are a rare resource and things need to be dealt with despite the potential danger. An explosive monster population is probably just as much as a threat as a goblin den potentially getting their hands on a few females.

It’s pretty cool if their world is that progressive. If you’re a girl and you want to go out and be a hero than be my guest! But it’s kind of an imperfect system, you should at least have a barrier of entry or a set of standards set in place that informs newbies and especially inexperienced adventurous females exactly what to expect.

It’d be like if a party of clueless people going out into the woods to take care of the rising wolf population. They don’t know how they hunt, act or think. Most likely you’ll never see them again and the job still needs doing in the end.

I have to aggree that it doesn't make sense. Logically, a guild would ban low level women from taking on those quests, similar to how you can't accept quests if you're too low of a rank. The risk of the party failing and increasing the population of goblins, endangering whatever village they're around is too high.

It's possible female adventurers haven't been banned from goblin quests because of how little 1) people know about goblins and 2) how little they've cared. We know a lot because the story is based on a focal character who is obsessed with goblins in a mission to extinguish them from the face of the earth.

It's likely that in the guild culture, however, goblins are considered such small fry to the point people not only bother with them, as a result, they don't have much info about them, let alone spend time genuinely thinking of countermeasures for them. Hence why the swordsman in the first episode mistakenly thought goblins were weak and why people at the guild are confused why Goblin Slayer bothers so much with goblins in the first place.
