Wow, it's been a while since the last time I felt this bored while watching an anime episode. Battle against Spirit Tortoise was so underwhelming not even Penkin's OST could save it.

Also, people saying CGI looked good need to go to the fucking ophthalmologist.

idk this episode just Okay i guess, nothing really impress me.
plus the CGI, it's not bad as Spider CGI but just slightly better.

i knew it, it's kinda too easy...
it's not over yet of course, let me guess there is more than one Tortoise? perhaps

Also they haven't meet Kabuto looking guy yet.

What has happened to this season? It's so bad compared to the first one... it doesn't deserve its guest appearances in Isekai Quartet anymore. 😞

Am I the only one who felt the lack of emotions between the characters during the last fight? Everything seemed to me too static. As for the turtle, I think that the only way to kill him completely is killing that girl who has magic powers which is somehow connected to the turtle.

What the, i thought they used the op cg for the tortoise. Because its looks much better. Here the tortoise looks so underwhelming. Guess its not even its true form, eh? Considering in the end, its not even death, according to how healthy Ost with that joke to Rishia xd. Alright, okay episode. Action wise should've been better. But feeling underwhelmed over the direction of this episode is actually pretty understandable because i feel like there's something more than just cutting off that huge monster head. Hope i am not wrong, and lets just see the next!

Pretty cool ep although I do think it felt rushed but overall it's not bad

I guess cutting it's head off is not enough this might be the toughest monster Naofumi ever face

That CGI tortoise, is by far the most nauseating thing i've ever seen. Even worse is how the blood thats spilled out of the wound that looks very bad too.......

The army thats charging in towards the Tortoise was pointless. And Rishia served no purpose.

Ost is still alive by the end? I was not surprised.

Honestly I don't know how I feel about this season so far, everything feels rushed, I feel there should've been atleast one episode of world building, whether it be about the other nation leaders or the spirit tortoise etc. Also I can't take Russia seriously in that god damn filolial suit

Alright episode, very action packed with everyone trying to take on big Tortoise. Lots of deaths occurred, but many more could of happened if the Tortoise continued with its artillery bombardment and the gang didn't behead the big Tortoise with big Shield.

Ending did make me laugh ngl with the way Ost just casually hands Rishia a handkerchief before everyone looks at her and she drops a casual "It looks like you haven't defeated the Spirit Tortoise yet" haha thank you Ost, very nice.
Ost probably one of my favourite characters in this season rn.

Spider anime got bad studio like Milepsense to begin with (same studio with last Berserk), but it still good just with plot twist and Kumoko POV only even it skipped a lot from novel. CGI on Spider POV was smooth and good.

If i must pick, better to pick Spider S2 over this Shield Hero S2.

Facts: Well the creators are aware that this arc ain't good.
But they cant proceed to next arc unless they made this one so they did their best to make up with cgi..
Come on at least appreciate their effort.
Lets just be patiently wait for the next arc.

Or maybe just don't continue animating a badly written story, which had only one decent (but not outstanding) season in its premise?
One season from Shield Hero would have been enough, because there is simply nothing more in that story, and its novelty cannot mask forever its character and story writing issues.

It is actually outrageous, how mediocre or bad shows got continuations even if they aren't even really popular (not talking about SH in this regard), while far superior and more popular animes are left without continuation and conclusion, or we got something like Promised Neverland S2.

It really feels like the top producers in Japan have no fcking idea about business, and the place of the modern anime industry, and only focus on inland manga sales and merchandise when the anime industry is already bigger outside of Japan, and the anime industry has already surpassed manga which they still try to promote with unfinished animes.

1st season was up there with re:zero, konosuba, spider and slime as far as my favourite isekai.
this has worse pacing than arifureta and they really butchered the story to make it fit into 13 eps.

Seems like there was insufficient build-up to this battle? Even if there's going to a be big reveal that the big turtle arc hasn't concluded it still feels... underwhelming?

I didn't think I would ever say this, but I would rather they bring back the 3 other awful heroes and the hate bait princess. The entire battle felt like they went through the motions to create a battlefield while both the enemies and most of the allies are nameless expendable characters.
If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.

Great episode. What made me a fan of the shield hero was his strategic thinking and action sequences. The first two episodes had some odd pacing (at least it felt like that to me), but this episode had some outstanding elements, and it seems the tortoise arc is just beginning.

Phase 1 and Phase 2 of this Spirit Tortoise battle is quite good, really felt the high stakes when it launched that purple spike thingies

Still waiting for the reveal of Ost being the actual mastermind behind its attacks all along, I can feel it


Um... No... The actual mastermind is someone else... Some... kinda... self-flattering guy who a normal isekai protag would call a coward

My initial thought when the tortoise lady didn't disappear was: 'Why are u still here? Please, die already.'

This turtle arc is so boring, and it's gonna get worse by slowing things down. Man, they were literally fighting a magical slow poke cgi turtle. How fun is that? I sure hope they don't make that damn turtle be alive again. That'd make me vomit.

Rishia is cute, aside from being obsessed with the Bow Hero…

Tortoise battle was poorly done. Too many shots of overexposure and smoke/debris, not much actual combat other than the pretty satisfying head chop.

I’m watching this season with low expectations from the get-go, so I’m not really phased by the lackluster beginning. I have a feeling it’ll get better somehow, but we’ll see.

It seems they initially succeeded spectacularly rather than fail as I predicted but they didn't defeat the Spirit Tortoise yet as Ost declares so task successfully failed still! LOL

I don't know what to make of Ost, she seemed earnest in defeating her Creator because someone's controlling it but seems to be pretty unsure of it herself, is it an act feigning ignorance and such with her own agenda or maybe she really don't know?

That one foot soldier from Melromarc got PTSD now, heck probably lots of them and it isn't over.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.
