For some reason, this first episode didn’t have the same draw as season one did. I’m really hoping it picks up though.
I haven't watched S2 yet but EP 1 of season one mainly got popular because of one scene
Which scene? O.o
The goblin raping a girl one
I assume that scene was likely censored on the platform I watched it, since I don’t really recall anything popping out as over the top.
iirc it was mostly Twitter having a break down because the scene dared actually show for once why the evil monsters deserving of genocide are treated that way in universe. You probably don't recall it because to a sane person it was a depiction of utter evil on behalf of the goblins and reason enough to justify a genocide on them. If you were however a twisted fuck like some of those Twitter cretins you'd look at the scene of goblins raping female adventurers as softcore porn and go complain about it in public.
I suppose I can understand that response, though I do think that would add some motivation behind the viewer hating the goblins.
That said, I am 99% certain that when I watched it on Crunchyroll, that scene was heavily censored as I don't recall seeing it, but it was likely implied while the screen was nearly black.
