What is Re:Monster about?
Seven Seas Entertainment, the publisher of Haruyoshi Kobayakawa's ongoing manga adaptation of Re:Monster, provided the following description of the series:
When a young man begins life anew as a lowly goblin, he forges past all obstacles with a combination of strength, smarts, and a monstrous appetite in this action-packed shonen fantasy manga! Tomokui Kanata has suffered an untimely death, but his adventures are far from over. He is reborn into a fantastical world of monsters and magic—as a lowly goblin! But Kanata, or Gob-Rou as he is now named, is not about to let that stop him. With a combination of memories from his old life, a brand new body, and a monstrous appetite, Gob-Rou thrives in this new world where he must devour other creatures to gain their powers. It takes strength, smarts, and a strong stomach to survive in this action-packed fantasy!
It looks like Re:Monster will be an action-packed adventure with lot of exciting fantasy elements that we see in other isekai stories.
