Shield hero thread

And so, next week is us finally seeing what happened to raphtalia after the wave hit her home.
youtu.be/_Z_ZGa7THuQ

No doubt this is not for the weak of heart. I do wonder how will the viewers handle such scenes, especially the ones who have only seen the anime. As for the ones who read the manga/WN/LN, what do expect from this next episode?

Sadness and pain, especially since they will do the torture scenes. Those were hard enough to read, but now they'll have sound.

Try an elementary school, but you might get arrested. Would not recommend.

Melty is royalty though

You'll find a rich one, that's pretty much royalty.

The story about her village and the flag is supposed to have been told when she was newly bought unless I remember it wrong.

Go to an european country, they have royal lolis.

Ay, don't get the man killed.

just got into this show and the wiki says it will only run for 25 episodes?
As far as the LN chapters are concerned it looks like we're only at either the 4th or 5th book, out of 21.

Anyone know if we can expect the anime to continue or will the whole funimation cancelling their streaming of it, and the reception actually kill it?

Nice dead cat

>funimation
i dont know but to me that seemed half gaining brownie points with the sjw crowd and half fuck you to CR. Didn't they end their partnership recently?

>reception
I thought it's pretty popular in Japan?

I don't know if there will be a second season but the show is getting a really good reception overseas and in japan.

I want to fuck a chicken

I didn't even know Funi was streaming it on the first place, I thought it was Crunchy exclusive.

All it says on the wiki is that funimation postponed their streaming of it indefinitely, and that after the first episode aired there was some critical feedback about the potential slavery apologism and false sexual assault framing.
Other than that though, nothing just LN and Manga sales numbers, 3.3m and 1m respectively.
No idea how good that is.

There are others around the world, i believe.

kek
Well, good thing Japan doesn't care for western SJWs. It all depends on Kadokawa.

>Other than that though, nothing just LN and Manga sales numbers, 3.3m and 1m respectively
it reached 6.something recently.

>and that after the first episode aired there was some critical feedback about the potential slavery apologism and false sexual assault framing.
told you, they just wanted to gain points with the sjw crowd. On the other hand, CR can't not stream it.

>after the first episode aired there was some critical feedback about the potential slavery apologism and false sexual assault framing

if you see the source on the wikipedia page you'll see that's referencing Anime News Network rating on the show, not the general opinion.

>3.3m and 1m respectively.

That's december data. Now we're at 6.2m

It nearly doubled in a 3-4 months time.

>some critical feedback about the potential slavery apologism and false sexual assault framing
Honestly, I think that's just a usual small but very vocal minority. Even on tumblr there are plenty of females who love the anime and its characters.

It's the best sign of the show's success at least in japan. Now i want to see how well volume 12 of the manga will sell on it's first week.

Guys you seem to be jumping to conclusions with the whole Funimation thing. Shield Hero isn't the only anime that got removed from there, Mob Psycho also got removed too when their partnership ended. It probably has to do with that.

I did mention something about their partnership. Why did they break up like that anyway?

Or wait a second. If CR holds the license for these shows, they could "share" it with their partners or something. So funi could no longer show them once their partnership ended right?

I cannot handle such wholesomeness

So, is Atla actually Naofumi's first kissu?

yes

That's supposed to be Atla? I could not even tell.

So when does Naofumi get over his women pessimism and realize Raphtalia loves him?

does anyone know a doujin about it?

I think he already knows. And he loves her too!

As a daughter.

>crotch tattoo on male

It took them 21 volumes but at last, they're a thing now.

Yeah, she knows he won't do anything inappropiate so being naked in front of him is perfectly natural, like when parents and children bathe together. Only Motoyasu could be perverted enough to think otherwise.

>mfw no season 2.

Attached: 411789.png (1280x720, 355K)

I'm not sure how would that even work. Usually, those would stimulate the womb of the female who has the tattoo. What would it do on a male who doesn't have one?

>motoyasu
Nah, he thinks they were just daughter and father. Even in the spear hero manga.

Just curious, how much actual time will have passed in those 21 volumes?

Does Raphtalia shit like a racoon or like a human being?

Isn't it just an enslaving tattoo? Does the body part matter?

Lets see, after they came back from their errand in another world, the energy of the spirit tortoise formed a barrier that held the waves off for around 3 months. After that, the phoenix and takt happened. Then they went to the other world back again and returned. And then they got flunged into the past where only the bow and shield heroes existed. Little less than a year perhaps?

Heroes are immune to slavery crests/curses. That tattoo is something else entirely.

That's too bad.

More than 6 months, less than a year.

Ah cool, thanks.

why does motoyasu in the spin off manga see that one woman which came for the shield hero not as a pig?

what was her fucking problem

Because they had a relationship with firo, naofumi or raphtalia. In this case eclaire was considered by motoyasu as a friend of raphtalia's.

She teached her table manners. She's not gonna let her waste them.

Oh I see now. Thanks

That said, there are some excpetions to the rule. Like keel, motoyasu cannot communicate with her in demi-human form, but shen she transforms he can understand her. Also, it appears he can communicate with some female beastfolk just fine. If they go demi-human form he'll see them as pigs instead.

Bros, I wanna commit a crime with Femspear and Femshield

All Legendary Weapons have a cursed series That's the Wrath skill tree.
The Legendary weapons are more than simple powerful weapons.They kind of sense the mental state of the user (In Naofumi's case.the shield felt his despair so it unlocked the Cursed Series, offering power but with awful consequences)

>awful consequences
he can fucking spam Iron Maidens...

It drains all his mana and something like a slap on his face can interrupt the whole thing.

>It drains all his mana
Lucky he gained something like this:
I don't really know Japanese but it looks like it says he gained Max SP cap and SP recovery shit.

>That's the Wrath skill tree.
What do you mean? The tree on the picture is just a sub-tree of the Cursed shield?

So if in the LN Raph gets the Katana instead of the hammer then what does Eclair get ?

I'm reading the on right now, and it seems that in their home worlds, the shielder was completely useless and was unable to perform its function, to the point that the dev's thought gabout deleting it.

I was wondering if the world the four heroes are in are the same way, or if Nao can keep doing his thing.

The skill drains almost all his mana and leave him exhausted, something the anime didn't show at all but Naofumi picking a sp potion to recover his lost mana

>there are two racoon shields in the HUD
what the actual fuck?

Might be because of this:

whats this?

someone shitposting getting their due.

It's the ability to summon another shield with Air Strike Shield. Not the ability to equip another shield.

She doesn't get raped, there is nothing that hard there.

Change shield is the one that lets you change thigns like the air strike shields into other kinds of shields. the (Attack) version requires you to use shields that can also be used to attack, liek the needle shields.

さて、スキル、セカンドシールドは何だろう? (Now then, what does this Second Shield skill do I wonder)

 試しに使ってみる。(Let's test it out)

「セカンドシールド」("Second Shield")

 エアストシールドセカンドシールド (Air Strike Shield-> Second Shield)

 と、視界にアイコンが浮かんだ。(This is what the icon that pops up on my HUD)

「エアストシールド!」("Air Strike Shield!")

 そしてエアストシールドが出現したのを確認してもう一度叫ぶ。(Once I've confirmed the appearance of Air Strike Shield, I shout once more)

「セカンドシールド!」("Second Shield")

 ……もう一枚盾が出現した。(... and another shield appears)

 あれだ。一枚しか出せなかったエアストシールドの効果時間内にもう一枚出すことができるようになったようだ。(So that's it. It seems that it's possible to have another shield appear from Air Strike Shield within the effective time whereas only one could appear before)

Second Shield skill lets him summon a second shield after he uses Air Strike Shield.

is Air Strike Shield the correct translation?

Yes, we know. I was just explaining the other skill, the one about "equipping" more like switching shields.

Now I am curious, is this how the LN is written?
Like Naofumi's first person?

How's the translation of the English LN?

Nope, it would be Erste/Erst shield. As in first. But "air strike" was coined in from the Web Novel translation days.

Ok so reading the Web novel. Remember that part in the anime/manga/ln where that village where the dragon corpse was?
Apprently, even if you were to tell them they should try and break down the dragon's corpse and dispose of it, they won't listen. Citing that if they did, adventurers wouldn't want to come anymore to the town if there's no more dragon corpse to pick loot from. Eventually, this ended in people dying of disease and the zombie dragon ahppening.

those greedy bastards deserved to be gassed

It does switch POV sometimes. For example, the chapter where Firo and Raphtalia go on a solo adventure to get a present for Naofumi. That's told through Raphtalia's POV. And there's another bonus chapter at the end of Volume 2 told through Firo's POV. But the bulk of it is Naofumi's, yes.

>How's the translation of the English LN?
I haven't read the English LN so I couldn't tell you.

Now that you mention the dragon zombie, just to be sure, the purple stone that was inside the dragon is not the same Raphtalia wanted to give to Naofumi right?

I see, thanks.
I am not sure if I should be getting the English LNs from Amazon along with the Spice and Wolf LNs ( already buying these ).

No it isn't. Raphtalia wanted to give naofumi an ore, the crystal inside the dragon is a dragon king shard.

First one is 7 bucks on kindle, give it a shot.

ALWAYS BELIEVE THE WOMAN EVEN IF NO PROOF IS SHOWN, BIGOT

Honestly, if you want to read the LNs and reading it in Japanese isn't an option, the official English version is bound to be better than any fan translations. They at least are likely to have some standards for hiring (the translator has to actually prove they know Japanese in some way to get the job) and the result is looked over by an editor. Most fan translations are done by people who half know the language.

Thanks shield bro.

Why is Raphtalia so much lewder in the LN? There's literally a scene with her just straight up undressing in front of Naofumi and saying "what do you think?" And of course his autistic ass just says "yeah, it's different than when you were a kid alright".

God fucking damn it this is depressing.

Conscience Manipulation is a powerful tool.
It works well on Motoyasu.

And the time when he tried his hand again on raising filorials(after bitch's betrayal), he was scared that the same that happened to fleonne would happen to his new filorials. But after the trio of filorials became angels. "it was like a light shining in the darkness. Different from firo at least."

I had a go at the official LN translation. It's easy to read but goddamn the prose is bad, really doesn't work when translated directly from Japanese.

>The queen sat naofumi on the throne and had melty sit on his lap
>"Mirellia, what is the meaning of this!?"
>"The meaning of this? Can't you see? Naofumi Iwatani, The shield hero, rests upon the throne as one who represents the country."
>The queen basically made naofumi king of melromarc
my goodness.

Why didn't Myne just simply kill Melty when she had the chance? Why did she have to wait until Melty was with Naofumi to kill her? Why didn't she just kill Melty off-screen and then dump her lifeless body in front of Naofumi and then use Adobe After Effects to make it look like Naofumi killed her?

Myne knows the king loves Melty too, it would only benefit her if she told the king that Naofumi killed Melty.

If you hadn't noticed, the premise of this series is to draw in miserable, lonely people with victim-complexes, and then shower them in slave lolis for SOL pampering. You overestimate the author for thinking that any of Naofumi's early bullying needed to make sense.

Kinda weird Crunchy suggested Kadokawa to animate this instead of MT to bee honest when they have a lot of progressive faggots and sjw
is this a 4D Chess they are playing just for click baits and shit?

That's Funimation
CR has their woke members but they represents nothing since they are still promoting the anime/manga/LN in the US
Dunno who's promoting Shield Hero in China tho

Attached: filthy scum.png (1276x1435, 2.66M)

Not everything begins and ends with western SJWs, they probably just went with what they thought would sell better. Not that they were right, season 2 never ever.

The LN sales was boosted
Manga sales boost is not that great
Anime DVD/BD presales are average
But as many said before, Shield Hero is Kadokawa's guinea pig. The success of the anime depends more on the US and China markets

LN sales get a boost literally any time something gets adapted. The ones here were mediocre and so was the reception to SH in general. It's not a bomb but nor is it close to a hit.

I distrust him.

>Anime DVD/BD presales are average

Something needs to hit 2000 JUST to break even. 5000 is a success. 'Almost 3000' is 'not a failure'.

Keep in mind Zombieland Saga sold twenty-one thousand. SH's sales aren't special.

Why is Naofumi using the Sepent Shield in almost every episode? isn't there a better shield?

Shield Hero is a weird/special case because Kadokawa has more expectations on the stream revenue/foreign market than the local market
Lets see how their little experiment goes

Right now the viper shield is his best not-curse shield. He will unlock better ones as the story progresses.
>Soul Eater Shield
>Whale Core Shield
>Spirit Turtle Shield
>Dragon Emperor Shield
>Sakura Stone Shield

Not right now, it was unlocked from the second wave (his first wave) boss, it has Good defense and a counter attack.

Did Spear's curse series turn him gay?

>spear takes firo's powers with an item
>filo puts a magic glove and one punches spear
Why tf shield doesn't use gloves?I mean gloves dont count as weapons or do they?

They count as weapons.

imagine cancelling a show because there was sjw outrage.

it's like you've never played a mmo with random faggots.

motoyasu get off the internet, we know it's you

I've done my share of random dungeons. A good tank can salvage a shitty group and make it manageable. A bad tank is helpless and a nightmare.

I'm wondering why there's almost no Shield Hero merchandise.

he can probably use them to pull his cart himself if he wanted to. he's allowed to use it as a tool, just like the carving knife.
but in combat is right and he won't be able to use them

>there's almost no Shield Hero merchandise.
what? last week i saw some miniatures, pic related, pins and even drinks representing each character

what about accidents, say if he used a knife to prepare a meal and someone slipped a hand infront of it without naofumi seeing it?

the fuck do i know about exceptions or accidents.
the person probably gets hurt for one damage (remember those orange balloons? hurt like hell but deal almost no damge to a person) and naofumi gets shocked for using it as a weapon.
that's my idea on it at least.

They didn't show in the anime the three stoges left the remaining viper tail there and Naofumi absorbed it.

That's pretty cool

Sorry to ask but, around what time that happened?

Same day after leaving town
He went to the boss zone and found out everything of the boss was looted except the tail

at least everything of value, the heards besides the viper tail that is. They would have been making some money outta it's meat if firo didn't eat it all.

Alright, thanks for the info user.
It sucks the anime didn't include something that important, I mean, that's the shield he'd be using for a while now.

Something like: I think an user said that's an important shield too.

He’ll be using it later

I hate this fucking arc, it's so hard reading through it, I dunno why.

I didn't know isekai anime also had fujoshi followers

and fudanshis.

It's mostly because of the spinoff i think. Motoyasu is unwaveringly loyal to naofumi, and has done a few questionable things, such as licking naofumi's neck. Also naofumi being his pure self which people can take that and motoyasu's insanity in "interesting" ways

You have to believe in women, user

It's because funimation is going through a lot of shit recently with false accusations against the dude that voiced broly in the new dragonball movie

It still blows my mind, i'm aware of the batshit crazy extreme left but I'm amazed they gained so much influence out of nowhere. And people/media take them seriously.

They are associated with crunchy roll. I think if you subscribe to one, you can access the other.

Attached: I'll punish you.jpg (831x666, 230K)

Don't know how Japanese MMO's differ from western ones. I'm actually curious as to what MMO's are the most popular in Japan.

Though I don't think I played any that had a tank with more of support/utility role, that would be pretty interesting if implemented right.

They explain right at the start. Tanking is super effective at low levels, but endgame Shielders don't help at all to their defense stat not rising in line with monster attack.

I remember i was subscribed to crunchyroll and they offered a free trial for VRV which was another streaming site associated with them. I don't remember the exact reason but I ended sticking with VRV instead of crunchyroll. But it seems that they are linked and I think I have crunchyroll (free) subscription from it now. There was a reason I went with VRV over crunchy, I can't remember though.

VRV has a bunch of anime but also american indie shows, movies/documentries/shows I've never heard of or seen. Some asian films too.
There's some anime shows that aren't on VRV, I don't think they have some Funimation shows and some they do? Some shows are just sub, dub, or both.

Attached: yes.jpg (480x542, 42K)

I wonder if that will be the same deal in the world nao is in now.

I should rephrase my last sentence. When I say tank with more support/utility I'm thinking as they're tanking they have some abilities to support or for utility that would make tanking a bit more interesting or interactive.

I'm just basing this off my knowledge of the MMO's I've played with WoW being the longest one I've spent time on.

War against the surrounding countries would be quite a bad thing considering the position melromarc is in.

Why wouldn't you be? They're not even human, they are monsters with monster stats.

Cause of a war that happened two decades ago, and indoctrination by the corrupted church.

Isn't Eleanor a loli, too?

Man I'm hoping that they don't gimp Nao by the end of the series. It's cool to have a character who has strengths and weaknesses, and the whole "you attack, I defend" thing is very satisfying.

I'm hoping that the other three were just being dicks when they said that the class was useless later on, and really it just becomes useless as a solo class.

Depending on other people as a legendary hero could be seen as "weak." But if that's the case, he already hit that point in the story since things can make him bleed and hurt him now while before they literally could not do damage to him.

Balancing character power is such an important thing in a story like this, he cannot be too powerful or too weak or it removes most of the dramatic tension.

No, she doesn't even look like a loli and she is 18 iirc.

>I'm hoping that the other three were just being dicks when they said that the class was useless later on
No they were 100% serious because the games they believe this world to be based on was badly designed garbage wherein the tank is useless.

They are aiming the anime to China and US, so it was expected from them to tone it down. One example is Naofumi's monologues and the real reason he picked Raph in the slave market.

Inseminated loli coony.

Uh... why?

Because she really wanted to ride naofumi like he were a filorial that day.

The question stands.

In loop 5, after a ton of charity work(more than what was done in the first timeline) and a fucking civil war, naofumi becomes king of melromarc, with melty as his queen. Throughout their rather short time together prior to that, melty became infatuated with naofumi. That infatuation soon bloomed into love though it was a bit one-sided as you know naofumi isn't into little girls. Melty really was serious about it and it really saddened her that she'd forget naofumi if time looped once again.
Does that answer your question?

I can't wait for retards asking if raphtalia and her friend were raped in the dungeon.

In which loop does Naofumi put an heir in Melty? I mean, it goes without saying that Melty became a teen mother at some point. But in which loop did Naofumi just say "fuck it" and get memed by the queen?

Spoil me on what's going to happen to Raph next episode. Pretty sure I'm dropping this shit after this one anyway. The second cour has been absolute trash.

mad even betaspear prefers loli bird pussy over you?

Why do people watch this shit show? I'm surprised people can genuinely think this is good.

The first 2 episodes showed a lot of promise.
After that I am kinda riding the wave with "it's okay but not great".
It's still better than a lot of stuff, but it really doesn't live up to the potential it could have had.

Based and Melromarcpilled

i want to kiss her and take responsibility.
