Review of The Rising of the Shield Hero

YEAH. I HAPPILY GIVE TATE NO YUUSHA A 10. Why? (spoilers) Easy. Read on, peons. We're given many isekai where some noob winds up the ultra mega douche of the world. He is given everything he wants and all the powuh he could ever need (ahem kenja no mago) But Tate fights that trope. This dude, Iwatani Naofumi gets shafted right from the get go.Screw it, lets get on to the review, I've been consuming the sake so try to keep up,

STORY - 10.

Aight so this dude is isekai'd the hell to some new world, where he's a hero without doing NOTHIN' but... his party betrays him. He has NOTHING. Zilch, nada zero. And this dude fights his way back alllll the way up to the top. surpassing his peers in a way that is indescribably fun to watch. This dude is supposed to fight the world in a defense-based way and he beats ERRRTHANG. The other heroes have swords, spears, and a goddamn bow to fight with but they don't even hold a candle to the DEFENSE ONLY GUY.

Art- 9 ish i mean it's good nothing wrong with it but the art style works for the show.

Sound - 9 Easy, all SFX works well and leaves nothing to be desired by the watcher.

Character - 10. Easy 10. Raph stays true to her character, All characters are great. All of em.

Enjoyment - easy 10. How many shows do you watch where someone's cast away and thats it? Well, not this one. This dude is beaten down like roadkill on a highway and makes his damn way back up to royalty. This dude beats the mould like no other isekai MC does. 10/10. Hell yeah naofumi, you get em.

Overall - 10/10. I think this anime left very little to be desired. The powers were amazing. The character devopment left nothing to be desired, the ending was fulfilling and the path to the last episode was very enjoyable and filler-free.

Easily one of the best anime of 2019.

10/10.
