This is what is most widely known as a “Tom and Jerry” joke. Character A is about to hurt character B, but Character B turns the table and harms Character A. The “funny” is usually the viewing of the actions taking place. The comic however chose not to show it instead only insinuating that harm is about to be done. What sort of harm is left to our imagination so the better our imagination the funnier the joke will be.

Here are some glasses so you can read what I said👓. I didn’t say it was funny I simply explained the joke using Tom and Jerry because it is widely known show. That doesn’t mean that if you liked Tom and Jerry you should like this. Tom and jerry is a classic cartoon. This is a 4 panel comic strip whith current pop culture characters from different genres mixed together.

100% Agree.
Anime can be quite deceptive in its contents. I know a lot of people that like to watch Anime with their kids so going into a series can sometimes be a minefield. Just saying "Hey the series is good, make sure to not watch this around kids/at work/on an airplane" is a bit lengthy though.

I wouldn't call Goblin Slayer all that dark, its well written and doesn't follow the typical tropes that are usually present.

I would always suggest that people watch it and form their own opinions rather than listen to someone who says not to watch.

I'm not certain about the entire series, I only watched the first 3 or 4 episodes personally, but I do think it is worth cautioning people that the first episode at least is pretty notorious for how dark it is and the emphasis on the shock factor used in it. Especially if they are going into it expecting it to be a typical tropey adventure anime.

The protag tends to take the weapons off the goblins he slays, now now I have a mental image of him in a beaten up goblin glider thing

It depends on the movie. Usually, no I don't read anything that goes in-depth that would give away more than a brief overview as I will want to avoid spoilers since I think they ruin the movie. Also, I highly doubt an official synopsis of Goblin Slayer will say "graphic rape scene in the first episode". Maybe if it was a fan made synopsis trying to warn people it would be in there, but not in the official synopsis when that scene was intended specifically for the shock factor. Usually a synopsis is a general idea of what the movie is about, not something that goes into details of key scenes.

Okay? I'm not complaining about the scene being in the anime or the anime in general at all. It is not my personal cup of tea (which is why I stopped watching after the first few episodes) but that doesn't mean I am saying it is a bad anime. I was just warning someone that it is a dark anime. They can either look up more info themselves if they are curious or see that it is a darker anime and decide that alone is enough that they wouldn't want to watch. It's not like I am trying to say that it is a garbage anime or anything. Why do you seem so angry about this? It's not that deep, dude.

Because I didn't like it? Why would I suggest otherwise if I didn't like it?

Whatever dude, I'm done responding to you. Not worth wasting any more time on.
