Goblin Slayer

It's not about freaking representation in numbers..

oh my god, I believe we should have more people eating bread in anime, because that happens far more often than people dying.

The rape scene in GS was there because it added another level of cruelity. It has been used as a plot device to get the viewer ready to *hate* goblins and to understand MCs motivation.

Again, name a reason what rape has to do with shounen or even most plot lines we see in anime that would justify the use more often.
Aside from the fact that sexual assault is already pretty common in anime, there is hardly a reason to go as far as rape, let alone to animate it.
Not to mention the target audience doesn't need/want it and all kinds of moral question pop up since this would certainly not be used in such a way as it is currently in GS.

It's bad enough that assault is already used as "fan-service" in many shows
