Right... the kid who can just do everything with slimes.... builds a pit-trap in a stupid place, leaves wide enough areas either side for goblins to get past... and in the middle of combat he jumps over the gobbos into the middle of them and turns his back to the cave they were coming out of.

I suspect whoever is adapting this story to manga is to blame for at least half of that stupidity.

And... pushing the goblins into the pit from behind the pit? Wouldn't that be pulling? Oh, but they're not pulling either. They're just.... poking? ...

This whole incident is just stupid.

Ahaha who knew slimes wielding weapons would be so cute and effective. He shoulda have created a slime cannon for the metal slime though!

The goblins that keep putting their tongue out for no reason and the positioning of the acid moat really killed me
who is this artist and why must they wreck the story so badly in this manga.

This scene was in the mines in the novel. The mangaka kinda changed everything. It wasn't this out the in open. Maybe the author of the novel wanted them to do the scene a little differently in the manga though. In the novel it was impossible to get past the pit trap without vaulting it somehow. The manga version kinda nerfed the moat. In the novel they basically flooded over the moat and that's what caused the adventurers to get pushed back. This outdoor scene though in the manga. The goblins could have just rushed around the sides of the moat.... I'm chalking this one up to the mangaka not really visualizing the scene as described in the novel.

The only effective way to fight goblins: use their tactics against them, quantity is a quality of its own.

This kid is an ecological disaster waiting to happen. What happens when he dies, even if from old age, or gets senile or sentimental and just releases all of his slimes back into the wild? He has thousands of them, far more than what their numbers would ordinarily be in a given area, since they are at the bottom of the food chain. As time goes on, they only increase in number. Plus, he has a lot of evolved slimes with powerful abilities. Add in how they are now weapon trained, and are skilled at cooperating with one another in a fight, and you have a recipe for disaster. This wave of slimy destruction could easily wipe out a town, and there are very few in the world (that we have so far seen) who can do more than slow down this plague. As the wave of slime destruction eats people and entire forests, they will only grow in number. There just isn't anywhere that an elderly Ryouma can safely release his slimes that won't cause this annihilation, or would starve out all of his slimes, something that I doubt he would deliberately do. This cataclysm is practically guaranteed to happen because at some point the MC will inevitably die.
