The second episode , though slow was quite good , I like how it was shown that a kill is exactly that and that they are actually killing a goblin to get it's "drop items".
The scene with Manato coming back from the tavern seems like a little bit of a hint at the characters background (especially if it does turn out that they are stuck in a game world without their memories) , it was also quite good to see how killing the goblin affected Ranta and hopefully that will come around again later in the series.
Overall the second episode has helped me have a bit more faith in the series and it's potential.
