Modern anime seems to be cursed with Isekai after Isekai. From Sword Art Online to Knights and Magic, it has had more than its share of controversial ( Especially SAO) or just downright terrible anime. Innovation is often left to very basic changes in the structure of the show that cause it to stand…

It's an over saturated, repetitive and cliche medium that we all laugh at, and yet somehow find ourselv…
Read full review on AniList →You know honestly i was thinking that this would be another isekai series, and just be average, but I was far mistaken. Unfortunately, I'm not like other reviewers, and **** on every aspect, because "I only accept the finest of anime"(because in the end there is no such thing) The series was great…

He prevails, finds companions, and sorta moves forward but then it starts going south. With the introduction of new main characters, mo…
Read full review on AniList →___FEW SPOILERS AHEAD!___ __The Rising of The Shield Hero__ starts off as any other anime in the _Isekai_ genre: A character not doing much in his life is summoned to another world and forced to start an adventure. However, in this show Naofumi is pit against all odds when he is falsely charged wi…
Read full review on AniList →~~~__This review contains major spoilers for The Rising of the Shield Hero__~~~ A bit of context is needed to understand my feelings towards *The Rising of the Shield Hero*. If you’re an anime fan, the genre of *isekai* almost assuredly needs no introduction. You’re likely aware of how *contentious…
Read full review on AniList →This review contains minor plot spoilers for Rising of the Shield Hero The Rising of the Shield Hero tells the story of Naofumi Iwatami, an otaku from modern day Japan, who is summoned into a fantasy world in need of his help. Literally every isekai ever, right? But as he arrives, he realizes that…
Read full review on AniList →The show is masked by plot devices, underlying yet common factors that make no sense at all, and the supposed narrative that our MC, Naofumi Iwatani, is looked down upon heavily, due to him being the Shield user/hero, which disappointingly does not progress further than the stated premise. Naofumi'…
Read full review on AniList →I just want to say i never write reviews but the bad taste this show left me made me want to publish a review. No hate this is my honest opinion of the show. *Few Spoilers* PLOT- the plot started out quite interesting taking a path that most isekais avoid and that is having the main character be an…

Read full review on AniList →Welcome to Shield Art Online, the latest popular trapped-in-a-video-game light novel adaptation. You've seen this show a dozen times before, but this is the most degenerate one so far. Not only is this dogshit a shameless loli-harem, but it is also a slavery harem, a power fantasy, and 100% incel ap…
Read full review on AniList →The Rising of the Shield Hero, or Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari, is a symptom of the plague that has fallen upon the anime community over the last decade- mediocre isekai. The show attempts to defy the expectations set by previous shows of its kind with its darker premise and by throwing seemingly uns…
Read full review on AniList →The phrase, _“That which does not kill us makes us stronger”_, is one that's been made popular over the last century through various means. Originally coined by ‘entry-level’ philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, paraphrased later by the likes of award-winning artist Kanye West and only last year, happen…
Read full review on AniList →__Spoiler alert!__ I find the isekai genre to be very dull. While I don’t hate any isekai series, As I’ve said in other reviews, I don’t like any particularly either. There’s nothing wrong with the genre really, it’s just that no series has used the potential that the premise has. Most shows seem t…
Read full review on AniList →"Cute. Simple, but cute." - is what I thought when I started this show. Someone once said that there isn't anything to praise this anime for, but you still can't stop watching. And partially, I agree. Maybe there isn't anything special in it as in a fantasy isekai story. We've seen this done many t…
Read full review on AniList →For an isekai, the concept is interesting, a hero who can't do anything but to use a shield? Personally, I felt like it falls apart, however. Here you have a protagonist that is innocent and a common civilian, transported to a world he knows nothing of, and after the events of the second episode he…
Read full review on AniList →I enjoyed the show to an extent. It was not my favorite anime or isekai but worth watching none the less. Many of the shows problems could be easily fixed like very easily fixed. It is a well-structured darker take on the isekai fantasy that adds some lesser used aspects that are not commonly seen i…

If it just had th…

Read full review on AniList →To describe Shield Hero in a word is simple: obtuse. The Shield Hero himself is a socially inept, dour, doormat who _constantly_ allows people to get the wrong idea about him. His conversation modes are A) silently brooding and B) getting loud and physical, like an abusive partner or some raging NE…
