Summary
A brief description of the manga Harten:
Adventurer Harten rescues the little Elven girl Auyn after her mother was killed in a goblin raid.
LOL, just translated the title and it’s Haten Babysitting probable a translator did Harten which sounds better. Haten or hate’n is redneck vernacular for hating.
ハテン 子守り
It’s like short stories. Very short chapters, but good stories
Quality over quantity. This is peak. I’ve not seen anything like this recently. The creator(s) told a dense story with richly drawn art in a compact fashion.
This is a goblin slayer esque series, the art of the characters are good, But the design of the supposed mc is a bit off for me. Major issue I’m seeing is the underestimating of goblins when the goblins are buit like shrek. They look more like Orcs that goblins in most of the depictions. Most stories like this build up off the goblin being in most cases very weak and easily dealt with by others. While they can still pose significant risks, the Goblins in this series are a genuine threat and are constantly wiping out villages, there arent many significant adventurers in theses 7 chapters. This isn’t a story issuesl its a world building issue, I know the series is young and need time to cook. But I think the direction is off from the start, going forward i expect there to be armies being deployed for these threats and talking around chapter 10- 15 or the world wont make sense with these rampant goblins.
Story is interesting and art good, but “choppy”.
Feels like parts of the story was not skipped or pages missing.
I like the art and the women but this is not 4.9 theres some very short chapters and people tend to jump the gun when it comes to rating
It’s not 5/5, not at all.
It’s more like 7-8/10, but that would equal 3.5-4/5, which on this site, with it’s truly dogwater rating economy, is reserved for the simply sh-t stuff.
It’s nice, has potential, but still very very early with 6 chapters. Needs far more to fulfil expectations. Like the guy below said, at 6 chapters this shouldn’t even be getting rated yet, but I suppose you need good early ratings to get more readers. Never 5/5 though
I basically went trough the 7 chapters in like 5 minutes and again got proof how broken the rating system in this site is.
This 7 chapters contain less story then majority of all comics in their intro chapter and then to give 5 star rating for it is just a joke. This needs like 30 chapters minimum before can start to think that it’s time to give a rating
This has some VERY short chapters, but it is amazing so far. MC is stoic, but it seem like there is a good back story. He’s built like Superman.
If you are a Goblin slayer or Goblin hater or Everthing negative thing you feel about goblins READ THIS !
Oh man…
I just… Really really really hate Goblins even more than before.
this is the type of shit you read at 3 am and proceed to re think your life instead of sleeping
i’ve already read this a long time ago…
Definitely adding this to my top 3 reads.



































These are the short stories made by an artist/illustrator called navigavi_ – thats why some chapters feel short or disconnected as he isnt exactly a manga artist, so you should treat these as a side project from the illustrator’s main works. You can check his instagram and such for more information.
