| Oh hey the last thread got locked. Cool. So to avoid this thread being locked lets not talk about why this is overrated or underrated. I want to know why people think this is good, and I want legit answers, so nothing among the lines of Raphtalia is waifu or stuff like that. Let's discuss. Look I really can't understand what people like about this how so much. There are other shows I consider to be mediocre that people apparently like, such as Another and the recent Code Geass movie. Though I may not like those titles, I see the appeal in them and why people might enjoy it. But this, I just fail to see why people like this at all. It's been 17 weeks and I'm still baffled by all this praise. So please, explain to me why people like this so much. I fail to understand how bad CG and other things I won't go into detail on can get a 8+ score on MAL. Enlighten me. Please. I want to know. I'm not trying to trash on your anime. |

| Where did you see the praise surrounding this anime? Not on MAL I guess... I thought everyone noticed how the hype faded away after the first arc. |
| The hype has been dying down a lot. There are more comments of disappointment coming up in the episode threads, of course there are still more positive comments on the show though. |
 |
| I don't know but the thing is that I didn't get the hype surrounding the show even IN the first arc. I don't think the show changed much throughout it's entire 17 episodes. |

| I thought it was either because people liked Naofumi as a character and could careless about the plot or just like the plot in general. Its easy and simple to understand and doesn't required much thinking at all. (Similar to slime) I for one just like it since it's isekai trash and I love watching it to see how bad it can go. |
| I think it has something to do with current attitudes towards authority, especially authority that is percieved as overly judgemental, morally prescriptive, and/or hypocritical. The main character of Shield Hero is a young man who is accused wrongly of rape. This obviously is a topical subject and one that immediately resonates with the target audience. I suspect that many people identify or empathize with a character who is percieved or judged as "bad" by some authority figure, when they are in fact the most morally upright of anyone. The subsequent exposure of said authority's moral paucity is then a subject of anticipation during the course of the narrative, and intense satisfiaction upon resolution. Basically, the core idea here that resonates is the triumph of "true" morality over "false" morality - i.e. those who believe that they are in the right opposed to someone who KNOWS they are in the right. Again this ties back to the false rape accusation. Naofumi is innocent, but he is persecuted by those who believe him to be a criminal. Both sides are opperating based on moral principles, but one of them is frustratingly misguided. This goes deeper. Each of the other heroes, aside from joining in the wrongful condemnation of Naofumi, also have flawed characters. Namely, they commit harmful acts with the best intentions, but are unable to forsee the consequences due to their own arrogance. This creates a contrast between the protagonist and his accusers, emphasizing his moral superiority, and thereby enhancing the satisfaction felt by the audence when he is finally absolved. There's also an element of emotional manipulation going on. By making the antagonists not only very evil, but very stupid, it spurs incredibly strong negative sentiment against them. Just look at all the comments about how Myne is a bitch who should be murdered or raped. Essentially, the narrative drive here boils down to one big "told you so". The audience is invited to not only celebrate Naofumi's vindiation, but to revel in the downfall of his enemies. In a phrase, it's justice porn. This is my impression of why Shield Hero is so popular, especially in the West. Yes, people also praise the supposed subversion of isekai tropes, but honestly I think these are secondary, maybe even incidental details that people latch onto after the fact. The core idea that I outline above is what makes Shield Hero unique. More importantly, I think it's an idea that resonates strongly enough with certain people that the actual execution and quality of the writing doesn't matter. Hence why the series has such a strong fanbase despite being a dumpster fire of trashy, lazy creative decisions. |

I don't know if people enjoy this, but the fact that the show introduces me to all these despicable characters right off the bat doesn't really appeal to me either. Are people really willing to sit through a couple episodes just to have one moment where Naofumi is triumphant? The main gripe with me has always been the characters. The fact that the King, Myne etc. are just so evil really just doesn't seem realistic to me. I get that this is fiction, but things still have to seem realistic, or make sense, in the world of fiction for things to seem good, at least in my opinion. SSL443 said: Again, very evil characters, very stupid characters, just don't do it for me.

I get that this is fiction, but things still have to seem realistic, or make sense, in the world of fiction for things to seem good, at least in my opinion. Here's a quote from the latest episode thread in response to my comment there: episode_18_thread said: SSL443 said: This was one of my main issues even in the first epsisode. It made no sense for the other heroes to be so against Naofumi right from the beginning. Not enough characterization or setup to explain motivations. You're kidding, right? With recent IRL things going on you don't realize that there are a bunch of people that will automatically believe a woman just on her accusation alone? This is what I mean by the main hook of the show resonating with a certain audience. A lot of people right now have very pointed feelings about the subjects sort of orbiting womens issues and PC culture and that type of thing. I don't want to be too on the nose about it. So no, it isn't people who have directly been accused of rape; it's people that take issue with how rape accusations are being handled in our society right now, and the cultural zeitgeist surrounding these issues in general. lazypigz said: Again, very evil characters, very stupid characters, just don't do it for me.

They don't do it for me either, I think the writing and characterization in this show is terrible. But I also think that it does the trick for a lot of people, who are obviously very invested. Again, just skim through any of the episode thread and you'll get an idea of the frankly visceral hate for Myne and some of the other villains of the series. As to why these kinds of cartoonish villains are eliciting such strong emotional responses, again I think a lot of it has to do with the current cultural background noise that has been already touched on. I'm sure there are other elements at work, such as people that are more emotional to begin with being more affected. |

Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| The kind of structure where you have a lot of hardships in the beginning but things get better is enjoyable to watch. And I'd like to learn more about the setting. I normally don't watch "isekai" shows because I expect them to be boring and the rpg elements seem silly. I got into this one by watching with others and I liked it more than I thought I would. Some parts I don't enjoy are the early parts with Raphtalia (makes me "cringe"(?) or something like that) and the times when they fight monsters and when they talk a lot without getting anywhere because that's boring. Some parts I like are when they run around trading/ helping people, when they acquire new skills and when there is more information about the kingdom and the world. I also like the idea of having the main character be kind of like a support class. It's funny that he looks a bit like a bandit. If I compare with other anime, I don't like the characters here as much. I'm more interested in the setting and where the plot is headed. The best character is of course the giant fluffy bird, followed by the cool nerd with glasses, they've both had huge character development throughout the show!! |
| can dis sig fit |
| there is no appeal, its just like the other harem isekais, bad self insert mc, trash story, shitty plain characters etc. |
| I think the reasons can be as mundane as its possible novelty being the whole shield-only gimmick. Heck, a friend of mine has expressed interest in that alone because he thinks it's a pretty cool and unique concept. "I'm the hero but I use a shield only." Normally you have the main character use some weapon but this guy is only duking it out with a board. I mean, I don't see any other works of fiction that use a main character that exclusively employs shields. Plus you have pretty non-human entities circling around the main character. These don't make it any less valid of a reason to form an appeal. I guess anthro-human-like raccoons can look cute? Then the relationship between Naofumi x Raphtalia is not even close to the whole stereotypical master-slave relationship. Raphtalia's possible role is to make Naofumi rethink his "world against me'' attitude, which is what possibly keeps the fans glued to seeing any form of development between that ship. Naofumi was vilified post-accusation and he was treated as trash. Then he gets into a position where he gets to "own" a slave. Slaves are supposed to harbor hate towards their owners. Owners or literally everyone are supposed to treat slaves like trash. Now Raphtalia being this "slave" is treating him as her saviour, because she knows he means well. Naofumi doesn't treat her as a piece of garbage either. What escapes me is how this "normalizes" or sees the stereotypical slavery in good light when that issue isn't even tackled in the first place (more like no one brings that up since the respective participants don't see it that way...like it's a customary ritual that isn't taken seriously) but whatever, it's fiction so any form of interpretation is fair game. There's an added harem vibe too but that's part of the appeal from the looks of it. It's no different than shit like High School DxD being liked by others even though I detest harem-centric shows to the core. Honestly, you don't have to think very hard on the elusive "appeal". There's no deep hidden meaning here because it's in plain sight. lol. |

I'm in the same boat as the OP. Let me say one thing first: I'm in no way an anti-mainstream person. There are very few mainstream anime that I dislike as I believe that most of them became mainstream for a good reason in the first place. To be completely frank, I was really pumped after the very first episode. I thought, while the setting was totally unoriginal and it felt like they rushed the summoning stuff simply because literally everyone knows how it usually goes in anime like this, it has some nice potential to go down a dark route, not necessarily because it's more appealing, but I think the story has much more freedom this way. However, the show doesn't really have anything intriguing, at least the first 17 episodes, which are probably the only ones I'll have watched once this is over. The main things I don't like are legit awful pacing, huge over-reliance on cute, endearing characters and their interactions to make the mood good when it's not *supposed* to be good, really mediocre soundtracks and animation (debatable but that's how I feel). The main thing is though, that they keep making the characters, excuse my language, fucking retarded to progress the story and convince us that they are "trash" individuals. Normally it *might* be fine, but it's overused here SO MUCH that it's annoying if anything. At this point I don't even want Myne to get what she deserves, I just want her to disappear from my screen because she's a damn retard. Not even going to talk about how the story turned out to be nothing more than mediocre AND the usual harem that grows as time passes. Also, they unlolified a loli. Wtf? Here's my two cents, if anyone read this far. I too would like to know why. |
 Run with the Wind is criminally underrated. |

Low_res_Hibiki said: Typical isekai? You make it sound like isekai was always like that from the beginning, which just isn't true.It is the typical isekai appeal, the fantasy about you (self insetring through naoufimi) are the center of attention of the world, the most correct and fair and the strongest there is ,surrounded by girls that want to fuck you. Other than that it has to do with expectations, isekai fans dont expect anything else from what I wrote above, and so far the anime has delivered in that aspect, so they dont care about the bad writing or anything else as all of their expectations have been already met. And come on now, don't lump all isekai fans together. |

| This show bases all its appeal on a premise that is supposed to be against the typical Isekai's current, where the protagonist instead of being loved by everyone and getting everything easy, is an anti-hero who is hated and everything is difficult, which is an absolute lie, is the one who has an intellectual and moral superiority while others are fucking idiots, all in this story is making a big effort to make naofumi to look good. while the other 3 heroes look pretty bad. It fans also assumes many themes that never develop correctly or only superficially, like that of his "rise" to overcome the difficulties with effort and difficulty when really the whole series has been adjusted so that everything is easier than it should, after the indicidente with Malty the other characters he finds end up loving him, He possesses superior abilities to the other heroes so that everything is easier for him (like the iron maiden, the shield of rage and the shield drains souls) without having trained, usually in the RPGs were is fighting for hours against monsters to level up, and an absolute luck that is certainly ridiculous as just having bought the egg of a filolial queen or arriving when the heroes left a mess to be the one who ends up fixing the problems ... and could continue talking by the way with 3 girls is enough for a harem, 2 girls is just a love triangle |

lazypigz said: Well first thing I would say is realism. The human behaviour is exemplified very well unlike isekai where everybody loves the MC from the start. Then we have the fact the MC is pushed down and has to fight bit by bit to get back up. Then you have the complex but realistic plot. Also another thing is the fact it does not shy to deal with slavery rape epidemics. Unlike other isekai that world is not in any way a perfect place. Oh hey the last thread got locked. Cool.

For instance one extremely realistic segment you rarely see in fiction is seen in the ep with the refugees. In most anime or fantasy once you kill the boss is over. But here we see tyat the void of power needs to be filled and that after a wave people need to rebuild things and is hard. The destroyed objects do not recreate automatically and there is no spell to do irt fast. There are a lot of small things like that that makes it great. |
| I think the main appeal to the show is that its Isekai. (I'm not entirely sure but its just a guess.) At first it started of pretty well, but now it feels like the second half of SAO when you think about it. It has too many cliches, one dimensional characters and to me the biggest problem is that the important parts don't get explored that easily within the story. I'll be putting this on hold because I'm more skeptical of how it will be paced out. |

| I find the conflict of the story to be interesting. I likd the mystery aspects behind the lore of the anime. I like the cast of characters. The setting is not limited to one location. If you like Isekai stories you will probably like the show. Otherwise just move on. |
 |
| The show was kind of interesting and fresh for the first bunch of episodes. It promised for a different isekai but then totally failed at it. I'm starting to see it following the same trend as SAO of starting with an Interesting premise to then forgetting about it ten episodes in to show that the main character is op and cool. Also the plot twist that was the most uninspired, boring twist of event possible for this series. The only reason I'm sticking with it for now is to see after that I'm gone. |

SimonStevens87 said: First couple of episodes where addictive, they got so much right, character development, world building etc all top notch but it's fallen off a cliff recently, that being said, I'm still looking forward to what's to come, I just hope they actually deliver. everyone agrees the problem is that it's been getting worse and worse every ep since and at some point it reached rock bottom the writing is horrible, the drama is horribly forced and bad, the characters are horrible, there are so many logical inconsistencies and plot holes the anime had potential but it was wasted, no matter how it turns out the fact that i had to endure 10 eps as bad as the last 10 eps ive seen is already big enough for me to hate on this the irony is that shield hero has better score than Goblin Slayer which was 10 times better, even if not perfect |
