Berserk addpermalink

Both tell the tragic and violent story of a man on a quest to revenge in a dark fantasy world

Overall theme of the manga and character motivations are very similar.
Both main characters are badass monster killers, very knowledgeable about the best ways to dispatch the nasties. The ways The Goblin Slayer sets traps and improvises during battle is very reminiscent of the early Guts.
Also all the gore and rape...
I would even risk saying that Berserk was the main inspiration to Goblin Slayer.

- dark medieval world
- protagonists suffer from a trauma involving monsters
- extremelly violent, include rape scenes 

reportRecommended by NathanRade

Both have a main character with a VERY strong motivation to kill the enemies.
Both have an mc who want to protect someone close to them while having the burning passion for revenge.
Both of them have a dark setting where there are a "few" character deaths and no mercy is shown at all.

Dark fantasy 

reportRecommended by VekyCar

I usually compare this work to Berserk in that it is brutal with the deaths and merciless with those who fall into the hands of the goblins. The point that differs from Berserk is that even with these brutalities, the work continues with a less heavy and happier (?) atmosphere, so to speak.

=====================Versão em Português====================

Eu costumo comparar essa obra com Berserk no ponto de ser brutal com as mortes e impiedoso com os que caem nas mãos dos goblins, o ponto que diverge de Berserk é que mesmo com essas brutalidades a obra segue com um clima menos pesado e mais feliz (?) por assim dizer. read more

The two series share the the same feeling.
-There's a protagonist who literally to angry to die.
-Strong will to fight till the end and destroy their enemies.
-Some "romance"
-Some people who always willing to help the hero.
-Medival place ( I mean sword fight mostly)

Kuitsume Youhei no Gensou Kitan addpermalink

Until this point (Chapter 13) of Kuitsune Youhei I'd say it's quite similar to Goblin Slayer. Both action, art and concept (Adventurers in a gritty, realistic setting) are similar, although the MC in Kuitsume, Loren, is a LOT more talkative than the Goblin Slayer. Not that that is too difficult. Also, while in GS there are cute, innocent female characters grouping around the MC right from the beggining, in Kuitsume the only female MC till now is quite cunning and knowledgeable. There are no signs of harem to be seen. 

Those who like gritty dungeoneering and well drawn fights to the death would do good keeping an eye on Kuitsume Youhei.  read more

Madan no Ou to Vanadis addpermalink

Both feature protaganists exceptionally skilled in specific combat abilities, with simple, unagrandized goals that require heruclean efforts, whose dedication, leadership, wits, and combat ability draw an party of unlikely friends around them through their journies.
Both have interesting fights.
Both are well paced adventures, never skipping too much time or plot in the stories, and treat there characters like humans, rather than dialogue sheets, moreso than other manga/ln/anime.
Both were LN first. Both feature S-Class waifu material.

Fire Punch addpermalink

Both MCs are out for vengeance. Goblin Slayer is far more sexual, and the vengeance is actually enacted, so the reader does get catharsis. Fire Punch is more about the pure hatred and willpower of the MC.

Vinland Saga addpermalink

The two main characters are traumatized at a young age by extremely tragic events. Due to these events it shapes the way the main characters both behave and drive them to their goals on getting revenge. Both main characters are highly skilled in the way they choose to fight or go about killing their adversary.
