• 0:06
  What's up y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
• 0:09
  talk. I'm your host Robert.
• 0:11
  And today today, weird to find out what's wrong with getting
• 0:17
  reborn as a goblin. Now, This series, this first
• 0:23
  volume that I read it is, published by Yen press and the
• 0:30
  Arthur is Nas una Meeker. And the artist is su casa a
• 0:36
  rocky, so, like I said, its first volume.
• 0:43
  Should be about a time. Y'all are listening and you're
• 0:45
  watching this very interesting. So, as as you might guess by the
• 0:53
  title, this is a nice acai. But like a lot of the easy card
• 1:00
  that I have behind me. Karate Survivor head-on to 10 of
• 1:05
  the world and Yakuza reincarnation.
• 1:08
  This one is a little bit different which y'all know I
• 1:13
  love finding my Hidden Gem. So, as title implies this was a
• 1:17
  story of a office worker named Akira Yagami, who gets
• 1:23
  reincarnated as a goblin now on the surface.
• 1:28
  Okay, what, what is so special about that Robert?
• 1:31
  Well, The kind of interesting thing about this, which I guess
• 1:35
  some of this information. I've kind of heard bits and
• 1:40
  pieces just over my years of watching anime and reading
• 1:43
  manga. But getting a character that is
• 1:47
  actually living the life of a goblin.
• 1:50
  It kind of like hammers in a lot of different facts and
• 1:56
  information about goblins and stuff whatever which before I
• 2:02
  Get to that. So, like I said, the main
• 2:06
  character Kara, he was an office worker and love sorcerer truck.
• 2:11
  Coon got them as little boy in the street.
• 2:15
  He pushed a little breath away. He died.
• 2:17
  He got hit by the truck. And but the thing that was
• 2:21
  happening is that as he's kind of like, having his final
• 2:24
  moments, he's inadvertently kind of like creating his own
• 2:29
  character for this other world, so to speak to her, you know?
• 2:32
  He seizes his because a couple of like his friends from work
• 2:37
  was there and they were mourning over him or whatever.
• 2:39
  And he kind of was like, man, I want to be the one to see people
• 2:43
  go. Not the other way around.
• 2:44
  So there's like, there's like a, like a little like, like a
• 2:48
  little, like text box, whatever pops up, whatever this kind of,
• 2:53
  okay searching. And then he's also like man, I
• 2:57
  was only 29 years old and the average life of a person in
• 3:02
  Japan. He's 80.
• 3:03
  I wish you kind of get this. Get to lead to live live to be
• 3:05
  the age and the thing. She's like, okay, once again,
• 3:08
  surgery narrowing down results and then his final wishes that
• 3:13
  so his friend that was, there is basically kind of like a younger
• 3:17
  colleague that he was kind of training it work.
• 3:20
  And so, he's kind of man, I wish I could have passed on my
• 3:23
  Knowledge and Skills to my colleague and thus, whatever
• 3:29
  this thing is takes those different When she sees me, he
• 3:35
  may sort of speak, whatever, and he is reborn as a goblin are.
• 3:39
  So the way these things come into play is that goblins, at
• 3:45
  least in this world only live for seven days.
• 3:50
  So they are truly living that yellow life to where it is like,
• 3:54
  hey, we just going to live our life to the fullest, we're gonna
• 3:58
  bang it out. Have kids have all this stuff,
• 4:02
  because I know, I'm only here for seven days, got to make the
• 4:05
  best of it and of course, with them on living seven days, they
• 4:10
  don't need to sleep. So they so they can just
• 4:13
  maximize their time that they have.
• 4:18
  And and the other key thing is that each Goblin is born with
• 4:25
  one unique skill when they are born.
• 4:30
  And when they died, they can pass.
• 4:32
  On that skill to somebody else who is there at their side when
• 4:40
  they die. Now you can the Goblins.
• 4:45
  They can accumulate multiple skills from different people or
• 4:50
  from other goblins, whatever. But only the skill that you were
• 4:54
  born with is the one that will pass on.
• 4:58
  And so that's where things get very interesting because our
• 5:02
  main Character his skill is best that he's able to live 80 human
• 5:09
  years because remember that was one of the things that he wished
• 5:13
  he was not he was like man I wish I could have gotten to
• 5:16
  actually live my for life. Well hey now for a compared for
• 5:21
  a goblin he is going to be to be living thousands of times over
• 5:28
  that lifespan, which is kind of rare things.
• 5:32
  You really start to get interesting because at the
• 5:36
  beginning, I like, what they like that first chapter or two?
• 5:40
  We see, he talks about the how he's already.
• 5:43
  He's only been in this world whatever for a month, but he's
• 5:48
  accumulated 200 plus skills because he's been there when all
• 5:55
  these different goblins have died.
• 5:57
  Like I said, it's only bam been a month, but when you have a
• 6:02
  life span of a week, then he probably seen people die every
• 6:06
  freaking day and he just racking up some skills and so that is
• 6:12
  where the true uniqueness of the series starts to shine.
• 6:17
  Because not only do you have, of course, this guy who was, you
• 6:20
  know, he was 29 years old in general.
• 6:24
  So he already has that a different mindset from the More
• 6:27
  goblins. But now also he's going to be
• 6:31
  able to live, 80 human years and just keep on accumulating
• 6:35
  skills. And so he kind of basically
• 6:40
  starts to throughout the store. I'm not going to go into all the
• 6:43
  specifics, whatever. But he starts to basically
• 6:46
  starts to organize the Goblins in a way that they never thought
• 6:53
  about because like I said like man, I'm only here for a week,
• 6:56
  screw. ation screw whatever, you know as so one of the kind of
• 7:02
  like interesting things, he kind of Introduces which, which I
• 7:06
  guess I'll say there there was like an incident that happens
• 7:09
  where a goblin is a doing some harm to a human and then some
• 7:17
  humans come to retaliate and he is up negotiating.
• 7:22
  Peace between the two sides and he ends up going and meeting a
• 7:26
  high official on the human side of things and then one of the
• 7:32
  murder like the main humans that you rise into it is this woman
• 7:36
  named Karen which I love her design.
• 7:40
  She's very beautiful. I just like just like the way
• 7:44
  just her whole looking stuff for those just just really dope but
• 7:50
  they kind of they kind of have the most interaction.
• 7:54
  I guess that's like I said between the two races throughout
• 7:57
  this volume and what looks like it's going to be a thing going
• 8:00
  forward in the series. But basically When he comes back
• 8:05
  from negotiate with the humans whatever he starts to slowly put
• 8:09
  things into place to our he's like man it's a lot of skills
• 8:15
  and stuff that are kind of like going to waste and so he likes a
• 8:18
  start to organize a tour. Like for example he said okay
• 8:21
  who are here has a combat / of festive type of skill and so he
• 8:28
  gets them all grouped together, whatever.
• 8:30
  And basically what he starts to do is he starts pointing In
• 8:34
  these different groups, whatever one Goblin.
• 8:37
  And he gives them a name because to this point, none of the
• 8:40
  Goblins have names. They're just hey, I'm just, I'm
• 8:43
  just another gobbling. I'm a goblin.
• 8:45
  You were gobbling, we all God bless and so, but he starts to
• 8:50
  give the different goblins names and what he has them do is hey,
• 8:57
  when you die, like let's say, he named one, I don't know.
• 9:03
  Peter and Peter is the head of the of the combat crew whatever.
• 9:11
  Well when Peter dies whoever he passes his skill on to, they'll
• 9:17
  become Peter 2 and so they'll have whatever the skill they
• 9:21
  already had. And this person's and that's
• 9:24
  basically how he starts to form some type of lineage Within
• 9:30
  These ranks of goblins. And so Karen.
• 9:34
  She's kind of letters because she's there to, also kind of
• 9:36
  like help observe stuff as well. And so she starts to slowly, see
• 9:41
  the okay? This Goblin is very dear friend
• 9:46
  and he started to introduce like organization and stuff.
• 9:50
  And so it just kind of just starts to like it.
• 9:52
  Basically supposed to get the wheels turning in your mind of
• 9:55
  like okay, yeah, the if word gets out that this is happening,
• 10:01
  then the humans are going to see this as a real threat because
• 10:05
  like I said if I don't get these little Mindless dumb goblins who
• 10:09
  wrote who only live for a week? Deep in the woods, who cares?
• 10:14
  But it's not okay, no. He always trying to make laws
• 10:18
  and rules and have order and structure to wear, okay?
• 10:22
  Yeah. You're only live for seven days,
• 10:24
  but there is a chain of command, though.
• 10:29
  It was funny. How like she came and checked in
• 10:33
  with with the main character, a carer after a few weeks.
• 10:39
  And he was talking to the Head. Of whatever one is one of the
• 10:43
  group's, whatever, and the guy was like, yeah.
• 10:46
  I'm I'm Peter 3 because it's already been 3 weeks, which
• 10:50
  means to others have already died and stuff.
• 10:55
  So. But but yeah, like I said, I am
• 10:58
  just very curious to see how this stuff is going to start to
• 11:03
  unfold because he also does me a very interesting Characters,
• 11:12
  well, that that's not not a goblin per se.
• 11:14
  But of, I guess, kind of like of that type of creature, that he
• 11:22
  gets a very dangerous skill. That's, you know, I love when a
• 11:31
  series kind of just like the foreshadowing thing of like, you
• 11:35
  know, little did I know? On this day when this thing
• 11:39
  happened, the repercussions would have I love when it's
• 11:43
  serious, do stuff like that, whatever.
• 11:44
  And they kind of do that when a character gets this character's
• 11:50
  skill or whatever and we spend, we kind of get to see it in play
• 11:54
  a little bit here. And there, basically thing you
• 11:56
  think of is kind of, like a skill to where it's kind of kind
• 12:01
  of like, a dominating skill to wear.
• 12:03
  If you beat somebody, then, once you have bested, the best of
• 12:07
  them, And this scale forces them to obey your command.
• 12:12
  And so, He flexed it a little bit, I guess, kind of kind of
• 12:17
  kind of like not now darker, but kind of like, conquerors hockey,
• 12:21
  in one piece of little bit towards like, he's able to
• 12:25
  impose, his will on others. And so they knew like I said,
• 12:30
  you're just overall, there is something here with this series.
• 12:37
  That I said, I am just very curious to see fold and I guess
• 12:44
  Said it's just something just very different.
• 12:46
  He knocks it from from from the usual.
• 12:50
  Isa kind of thing though, I did see some people kind of like,
• 12:54
  it's like when I was like search on Twitter stuff, whatever
• 12:57
  people make sure that all maybe it's got like a little bit like
• 13:00
  slight similarities. So it's like some like
• 13:02
  reincarnated as a slime Bob kind of but not directly but the
• 13:08
  potential is there because like I said, like he's only been
• 13:10
  alive for a month or two and already has 200 plus skills and
• 13:16
  like seeing him whip out a couple of the skills and a
• 13:22
  couple of scenarios that he ended up getting caught up in,
• 13:25
  it was okay. Did this is going to be really
• 13:27
  dope. Um, but yeah, I just look really
• 13:29
  forward to seeing how this all plays out and stuff and so if if
• 13:35
  you are a fan of a cicadas like me and like I said, especially
• 13:38
  something that's a little bit different from just the standard
• 13:41
  all person gets reincarnated into some A fantasy world and
• 13:45
  they're just a regular person is like no this is getting a look
• 13:49
  at the life of a goblin. Which like I said, I hadn't
• 13:53
  really seen before. I'm pretty sure there's probably
• 13:56
  something out there, whatever. But for myself this is new to me
• 14:01
  and also this Arthur they also did a series called Although I
• 14:11
  am only level 1 but with this unique skill, I am the
• 14:16
  strongest. I haven't read or watch this one
• 14:19
  year or actually I'll get the animators coming out next year.
• 14:21
  But I haven't read this one yet, but I've heard the name of it
• 14:24
  before. So I guess the, the author of
• 14:29
  that is also the creator of this, but anyway, no.
• 14:34
  Need for me to ramble on any longer than that.
• 14:37
  Like I said, you just want to just My general thoughts on
• 14:39
  this, but let me know what y'all thinking.
• 14:42
  Is that something that you might be interested in?
• 14:45
  Like I said, it has a pretty cool setup.
• 14:52
  There is a course, little bit of humor because of course, like I
• 14:54
  mentioned with goblins living short lives there in their game
• 14:59
  busy, banging it out and so there's some funny moments, so
• 15:03
  surrounding that stuff as well. But with that, Thank you so much
