Review of The Rising of the Shield Hero

This show was really satisfying to watch and its one of the most original isekais I have watched so far. It seems some people might not take a liking to this fact and some might even brand this as any other isekai. The truth is that its all opinions and you can like it or not. The objective truth is that this anime is not the usual light-hearted isekai where everything goes perfect for the protagonist. The MC is initially judged and plotted against as opposed to the other three heroes, and he has to work his way up to the top. The character development wasreally interesting with a clear evolution from distrust gained at the beginning of the show.

I am not sure if this really resembles any other animes out there, but even if it does it doesn't have any meaning in terms of its quality and entertainment value. The anime has a story to tell and it does so quite well in my opinion. If you are tired of isekai stories then your opinion might be against this anime; however, even as an isekai I believe this story to be different in how it develops. This is a more serious and sad story than it is about a cute new world where the MC becomes OP because God owes him or something. So be sure to not have those expectations.
