25 [Similar Anime] Like Goblin Slayer

Unlike most fantasy anime, both shows present realistic/raw thoughts and emotions of the characters who find themselves thrown into an unfamiliar fantasy setting. Both shows also possess darker themes and as such would more likely be appreciated by a more mature audience.

Naive people go to city, hoping that their life will go great, they'll do a few things, make money, become famous and... And then life surprises them, people die, lots of blood, MC gets little trauma, then there's a hero saving the day. Done.

Both have the same amount of fantasy, magic and adventure, but unlike the other one , one doesn't hesitate to pull any string to make it a darker version of any cliche anime with such genre, which is good.

I'm surprised im the first one who made this suggestion. Goblin Slayer is so much like Berserk.
Just like Berserk, this is another Brutal, Dark fantasy with Blood, gore, rape, and a pretty cruel world.
The leads are also very similar in the way that they are both are ruthless and motivated by revenge. They both show no mercy to their enemies and both have a very dark past. They are also not that good at socializing with others.
There are more examples that i will edit once more episodes come out.

In both, the story takes place in a heroic fantasy type world, and is centered around monsters.

Both feature MCs that want to eliminate the monsters that have been terrorizing people.
Goblin Slayer being Goblins
Attack on Titan being Titans

Both shows have got a simple minded male MC. Their social skills aren't the best but they have the charisma to make them the leaders of their group. Also, both shows are dark and have got a lot of gore.

If you loved Goblin Slayer's seriousness and all-out violence, take the next step out of a fantasy world and into the ruthless world of a Samurai's life in 1600's Japan. Our main character in Shigurui is just as stoic, merciless, and relentless as Goblin Slayer, and the animation is even more gruesome. This anime takes a step up in maturity- and not just in rating. This anime is historical and as realistic as most anime get. Although much older than Goblin Slayer, the detail put into this anime is intricate, the animation, blood-curdling, and the story, much more toned for a older audience.

Both shows feature very cautious heroes who win through being prepared and not fighting "fair". Goblin Slayer is less OP and there is less comedy, but the serious scenes in Shinchou Yuusha are reminiscent of Goblin Slayer.

Both anime have a similar advanture setting. And somehow they similar.

1. You can find goblins in both
2. The MC is overpowered
3. Races and classes seem pretty familiar to me

Both main characters are the silent and strong type
Both are determined to meet their end goal no matter how many times they fail without rest
Lots of gore
Involves demons

Both are adventure anime with focus more on the action rather than the character development or personalities. Both are fast paced, have good character designs, and good animation.

Similar type action and story line except this one has a harem

Both high fantasy shows with interesting premises and worldbuilding, as well a beautiful and cutesy artstyle that hides darker undertones and gorier scenes.

While the settings for these shows are different, they both have a similar tone and content to them. Both of these anime have an anti hero main character that kills monsters. They are also horror anime filled with blood and guts. I recommended both of these shows for anyone who likes anime with a dark atmosphere to them.

-their similar ranking of hunters (adventurers in GS / Demon slayers in KNY) 10 ranks in both .
-they are both about the protagonist hunting monsters as in demons or goblins for killing their loved ones.
-even the names are similar (Goblin / Demon ) Slayer :)
-Goblin slayer is more gruesome and gory than Demon slayer , but they are both not that disturbing if u ask me.

Similar art style , both main characters slay monsters to earn money , but Goblin Slayer is more brutal and bloody .

Both shows show how a bad fantasy RPG campaign looks like, but for different reasons. Chaos Dragon has some bad players (Urobutcher is not alone in this one), while Goblin Slayer would have one of the worst GM imaginable who promptly goes down the list of things not to do.

Both series has a dark and medieval setting

How is there no rec for Goblin Slayer?

There is one interesting aspect to both of those series that not much anime have - the characters have no names and instead are referred by name of their job/specialization. For example Hero, Priestess, Female Knight, Witch, you get the idea.

Both feature a girl with green hair, pointy ears, voiced by Nao Toyama.

Both series turn their genres on their heads.

While these two have a different setting to them, they both have a similar vibe. Both anime are filled with action, violence, blood and gore. Both have a dark and moody feeling to them. If you like one, you should the other as well.
