The fall 2018 anime adaptation of Kumo Kagyu’s property Goblin Slayer is getting its home video releases handled by AniMoon Publishing in Germany they’re showing off what’s coming for it. With the Japanese releases wrapping up next month, German fans aren’t waiting long for their release. The first volume with four episodes is landing on March 29th, 2019 and a new dub clip is out for it. And it’s a pretty dialogue-heavy piece that clocks in at just under three minutes as well, giving you a good feel for the main cast. We also have a look at the packaging to the right which is done in Mediabook style that includes a booklet, a dog tag, and a mini-stand all held in a nice looking box. At the moment, it looks like this is a Japanese language only release with German subtitles.
The series is directed by Takaharu Ozaki based on the series composition by Hideyuki Kurata. Takashi Nagayoshi is handling the character designs while White Fox is working the animation production.
The Japanese cast includes Yuichiro Umehara as Goblin Slayer, Yui Ogura as Priestess, Nao Tōyama as High Elf Archer, Yuka Iguchi as Cow Girl, Maaya Uchida as Guild Girl, Yūichi Nakamura as Dwarf Shaman, Tomokazu Sugita as Lizard Priest, Yōko Hikasa as Witch, and Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Spearman.
