so the thing that fucks me up about elves is like, of course they’re great archers. they live several hundred years. you’d be good at anything if you could do it for several hundred years. but what really fucks me up is thinking about how elves go to war with humans and they’re like, looking at these dudes across the field and they nudge their elf friend and are like ‘oh my god Ch’adrick those dudes are like, twenty. they’re twenty Chad’rick. why are we fighting a bunch of babies’ and then they die because the babies can shoot arrows too. NOT GOOD, BUT THEY CAN.
Kinda like how sometimes adventurers are like, wait, these goblins are like six years old and they’ve literally never been exposed to anything except hostility from anybody outside their tribe, maybe if they just had the chance to–
and then they don’t say anything else because they got stabbed by goblins a whole lot.
That’s the entire plot to Goblin Slayer. Good manga.
