It's NOT about him re-afferming his love for his party...it's the fact that his rage and anger is still very VERY much present inside his heart and still is, and even if slightly, part of his motivation. It's not that he needed to re-affirm his love for the others, it's the fact that the dragon took hold of that rage, his weakness, his blind-spot, and used it to consume Naofumi with his Rage Shield. When he submitted, he was completely overtaken by rage and anger, and as you heard at first, his party members voice's were muffled, distant. He was blinded, and even a lil deaf, by his rage. Blocking out everything around him and only focusing on his anger and the enemies who wronged him. But they got through to him, brought him back to his senses, and the way to do that was for them to remind him, to make him remember and bring forth all the good things in his life. I.E Raphtalia, Filo + Melty. They deeply care for him, and vise versa. It was used to remind him he's not alone and his rage and anger is not going to get him anywhere. I don't really care if this is a repeated trope in this series, because it makes SENSE. It's part of his character and is part of what the Rage Shield is. Via it's name, it takes hold of and brings forth his rage, blinding him to the people around him, only focusing on his anger and his enemies. ALOT of people don't realize this and overly criticize this, even when it makes sense if u just think about it.
Not even just that but his use of blood sacrifice on the pope after he was already rendered defenseless through the queen's capture just goes to show that he's still unhinged. His team helps keep him level and bring him back. But they cannot completely help keep his rage in check. He almost died for a bout of revenge and there was no time for anyone to stop him

@@matthewmartinez761 oh yeah, it became the shield of hope. Plz correct me if I'm wrong. Edit: but it's like next season for the anime and far back in the LN
no. the thing where he lost his mind was needed because it wasn't stated but in the LN the dragon emperor core reacted to ren and this time the feelings of rage were much huger than before. His shield upgraded from the Shield of Rage II to the Shield of Wrath III.
I think it's also a good way to show that despite the fact they are currently working together, he has most certainly not forgiven Motoyasu, Itsuki, or Ren for making his life hell. It didn't need to be stated or anything, but a clear cut scene like that does a good job of firmly setting where they stand with him in the wake of their... let's say reconciliation.
Jon-John Pinckney honestly both the light novel and manga are a lot better. The pacing is really where the anime struggles and them changing events so they can pick up the pace. In all honesty i wish they would’ve ended with this arc over them rushing to the next wave arc considering what happens next episode and that would literally be the perfect ending for a season 1
The wrath shield erodes the soul of the user, but the light novel the loss of control was shorter, and it was purely the dragon's rage that upgraded the shield there. Also, the shield doesn't explain the abilities so he had to learn with trial and error
Zack Myers well it was Trial and Error in The Anime too xD, i mean Naofumi literally was surprised when he lost his Blood because he didnt knew it was gonna happen

Due to the anger for mine and motoyasu plus the anger towards ren from the dragon made the rage shield evolve into the wrath shield (plus 3 I think) and he started to fall into anger again because it was on a whole new level
The recap you took issue with actually made me cry at anime for the first time in a while, I feel like the emotions that were portrayed were done so masterfully once again.
Watching this episode after noafumi called the pope a foolish sinner using blood sacrifice, I couldn’t help but laugh since he views noafumi as the devil, who just called him a sinner and summoned a dragon that devoured him and dragged away the popes body. In short noafumi sent the pope to hell
@@justsomeguywithhalfamustac4600 you can't add little writings everywhere, in anime. You must learn that different forms of entertaining have other ways of working, and/or scenes that wouldn't work well in animation 1:1 with the manga.
If anyone knows the revenge comes full circle next episode 😂🔥🔥🔥🔥 Hint: next episode is titled Naofumi’s triumphant return 🔥 Hint: two people get a name change
skeletor the boy who is definitely not a skeleton Spoiler warning: myne and the king lose their royal titles and their names are changed to bitchie and trash😂
And Melty's sister or Bitch gets a slave curse then the King becomes the Queens little torture pet. I am ready to sit back and relax for the PC police and feminists to rage about it.
Really hoping they go with the manga version and not the LN. All the satisfaction and catharsis we've been waiting for... just without one seriously uncomfortable/bizarre curve ball from the Queen.
Not yet. That comes next. Also, I so ship Naofumi and the Queen. Can you imagine all the good they could do together with Naofumi as King tending the people around the kingdom?
I didn't take it as him Lossing himself I took it as the shield is getting stronger nafoumi is underestimating the curse of the shield etc... And if he keeps using that shield he's going to be consumed by the curse shield serie.
Exactly. Iron Maiden only drains his SP to zero. Blood Sacrifice does...what it does. One is a far higher price to pay and the risks will likely be worse for stronger Curse skills.
Never thought I would see a "Jack in the box" in a form of a dragon crushing the Pope in it's jaws. It was a deserving death for him, but costed a lot of blood from our boi Naofumi. He's going to survive, and Queen's arrival is going to fix the current problems concerning our shield bro.
@@AC-sv4yc that too, but that wait time was getting a little long because I thought nothing happened. you can play a jack n the box theme song to get the punch line.
One thing they didn't show was the new shield, Shield of Wrath (basically Shield of Rage 3). The higher the level this shield the harder it is for Naofumi to resist the rage. That is why it took all three girls to pull him back.
The life of a tank main is a perilous one. Not only that but a thankless one. It requires a level of silent pride in one's own work. Everyone wants to be dps of some kind and even healers get thanked more regularly than tanks. No one really realizes just how much damage you absorb as a tank but the do know how much they've been healed.
The entire point of the rage shield is to consume his consciousness and allow him to be completely taken over by a single emotion (rage). This episode he unlocked a new shield which is called the shield of Wrath. It's the shield unlocked by allowing the dragon inside of his armor to take control of his emotion and multiply his feelings of anger. In the light novel Fitoria tells him that the rage shield will eventually take over his mind, which then lends into the idea of his party having to get through to his inner thoughts to help him come back to his senses. It's a skipped scene from the anime that would've made this episode (and the rage shield ) make more sense. Maybe they'll tell the anime only viewers later on, as they've already switched up a couple major plot points.
Well, what did you expect? A brutal death for a brutal tyrant. It's like they say, those that seek to betray and bring false testimony against their neighbor usually find themselves betrayed and lied upon as a result. Speaking of which, the TWO most hated people in this anime are going to get *WREKT* in the next episode, and new names will be decreed for the undynamic duo. **SPOILERS** The King get's the name *TRASH* LMAO 🤣🤣🤣 Myne gets the name *BITCH* Pretty spot-on 🤣🤣🤣 Oh and it gets better, referring to their old names becomes a crime that can land you in jail LOL
Never understood why they thought he was useless having a shield. Tank/support is the most important class. Anyone can be a high lvl dps but without the tank, you get annihilated in raids.
The flashback immages are Anime only~ish I Like the Manga approach waaaaay better. First of all before using the Rage shield He holds out his hand to raphtalia and tells her to hold it. This Shows really good that he will do another dangereous step with the rageshield and he will need Help. Then He tells the shield to grow. And you see him in pain as well as him talking to himself remembering the pain. But only one frame where you see a sketch of evil faces from the King, the princess and spear hero. Rest ist darkness and cursing. And shortly before getting consumed remembering the vow to the filolian queen, and then filo steping up embracing him too "is it okay If firo eats up this black stuff" And then He finally gets his consciousness back. You see the small princess holding him too, but she does not getting into His mind. Which makes sense. Oh ... and He is Not only sacraficing His Life AND cursing himself, so he can't be healed. Plus...the next Episode will BE Justice xD
Oh...and the kathedral was also Not in the Manga. And the Queen freezes all of them. Aaand naofumi doesn't Order the others Heroes around Like they are super besties. This will only create an unrealistic realationship between them and cause Problems in the next Arc.
yeah what she did to shield bro barely, if atall, had anything to do with the pope's/king's plans, she did that largely because she thought it'd be fun, because she's a psychopath
This is my none filtered thoughts on this episodes The 20th episode of Tate no yuusha no Narigari was Amazingly Fantastic seeing the queen in armour was cool, filo picking up Motayasu gave me a chuckle and the seeing how not even the rage shield's flame could damage the pope was neat. Seeing the dragon rage shield transformation was a shock, a bit of a scare and in a way existing and the rage shield's new design looks really cool but the scene where Raphtalia,Filo and Melty talking him down was just wholesome and the music with the scene just fitted so perfectly. Seeing Naofumi ask for help was surprising and Motoyasu's line "We need to prove that friendship and strong bonds will always prevail" made me laugh because of how generic that line sounded. Everyone fighting together and hearing the old theme was just simply epic no other word to describe it. seeing the Queen use some magic was cool and seeing the dragon rage shield's power was surprisingly fascinating and weird. Overall this episode was amazing with surprise around every corner with some scary scenes mixed in, really great music and voice acting for the sub an I can't possibly predict what will happen next.
i kinda disagree with your "flaw" in the episode it was stated that naofumis rage surpasses the dragon so for him to be able to just easily dawn the shield and its armor would have been dumb especially since the filo queen said that using the shield would be bad in the long run
Smile in the beginning remind me "Solo Leveling" smile. And Queen enter in the manga it was so good: " Medical team! You first priority is to treat the Shild Hero! You absolutely must not allow him to die! THIS IS A ROYAL DECREE!"
WHOA that was great but how would the Queen and the Heroes deal with each other as it seems the Queen respect Naofumi. Well I think the reason they redone the Shield losing himself is because of the Dragon is poking at his mind attempt to make him lose himself its to show its a never ending battle between him and the dragon/rage cursed Shield Also what happen to the malty as I believe the Queen is aware of her actions. Side note: rember the filolial queen said not to use the power of the curse which makes me believe their is more to it that meets the eye and she give him something to help control it but not cure it like I said a never ending battle between Naofumi and Dragon for control of power
Ture its his hatred but the dragon is encouraging him to hate and revenage so techinally the Dragon is still trying to convice him to lose himself for power, also if the dragon did nothing what about those purple eyes then as they start to appear upon consuming a bit of the dragon.
@@wolvesofold2165 Well, he's only Galvanizing it. He admitted that Naofumi's hate is stronger. And he won't probably have any more influence then this. It's gonna be all Naofumi's after this. Cuz thw Dragons hate is gonna be too silent and weak to reach Naofumi. At least that's what it seems it will become. Since it's already stronger then the Dragon's.
I wanted them to break the popes weapon, and let him go on his crazy villain rant about how he's good before he gets killed. It would've made it more satisfying when he gets uber crushed xD
One of the best things I saw in this episode which I don't see anyone talk about, is the face Naofumi does at the end of the episode. Like he is basically saying with his face " I don't trust you in the least", the hatred is intense
Naofumi: Help me i'm dying Queen: .... News: The queen was arrested for involuntarily manslaughter and as the clip shows here that she was just standing there pretending to not know what to do.
I loved How the Pope was So Blinded By his own Self righteous Delusions that he Didn't realize what Naofumis Attack Actually Did his reaction was Hilarious lol
It’s nice to see the cursed shield actually having some ramifications for using it. So far it’s just been “ooooh evil shield scary, makes you angry. Don use it it’s bad”
This series has been making me want to see a shield only class and maybe some legendary weapons that level up and adapt alongside you. Similar to the heirlooms in WoW right now but capable of changing it's own stats for specific situations.
When thw other heroes told him he had an op shield, there's even a quick line where Naofumi thinks "you guys just aren't using your abilities properly!"
He definitely was more rage than when Filo was swallowed. He has Myne right next to him and he has to defend people who he hates. He is confronted with all that baggage while being asked by the same people to save them when they are class upgraded and 20+ levels higher. It is how all of us humans would have reacted. To be forced to help those whom ruined your life and still do not believe you that would cause me to go Rage mode. The scene was powerful and confirm to Naufumi that he has multiple friends who will have his back and curse those that curse him. Also it was confirmation to Naufumi that he indeed is a righteous person. Definitely needed and powerful meant to signify his change on the Shield Hero position and World and people who love and care for him. He sees the gesture and it halts the over rage.
Naofumi - talks to Dragon, realizes it is his hatred, his party runs to him screaming naofumi, naofumi rage bursts them back clutching his head, in full dragon armor, scene end.
So I just read in the Light Novel what happened in this episode about a day before it aired and I was so excited for it! The episode is not as brutal as the LN but I am surprised how much they did show. A couple of things were different, so in the LN they actually attack the followers to stop them assisting the Pope, the other Heroes get KO’d and It’s not just Naofumi’s blood it uses but his bones too (properly gory). Oh and If you were happy with his revenge in this episode the upcoming ones are going to feel so so good (insert evil smile here)!
That death was brutal.... bruh
I literally cannot wait at all for the next episode because of malty
He deserved it
Not as brutal as the manga
I was immediately reminded of Iok Kujan's death in Gundam IBO.
30% of his blood was lost
It's NOT about him re-afferming his love for his party...it's the fact that his rage and anger is still very VERY much present inside his heart and still is, and even if slightly, part of his motivation. It's not that he needed to re-affirm his love for the others, it's the fact that the dragon took hold of that rage, his weakness, his blind-spot, and used it to consume Naofumi with his Rage Shield.

I.E Raphtalia, Filo + Melty. They deeply care for him, and vise versa. It was used to remind him he's not alone and his rage and anger is not going to get him anywhere.
I don't really care if this is a repeated trope in this series, because it makes SENSE. It's part of his character and is part of what the Rage Shield is. Via it's name, it takes hold of and brings forth his rage, blinding him to the people around him, only focusing on his anger and his enemies.

hit in on the nose, my friend. bravo!
I'm fairly sure that was a new shield, wrath. hence why its powers were different from rage and he had to go through another berserk trial
Exact what I said!

Finally after all these episodes of teasing, we enter the savage Queen arc.
No spoilers but... Calling it now she be best queen.
Yeah, boy. She best.
The recap you took issue with actually made me cry at anime for the first time in a while, I feel like the emotions that were portrayed were done so masterfully once again.
Watching this episode after noafumi called the pope a foolish sinner using blood sacrifice, I couldn’t help but laugh since he views noafumi as the devil, who just called him a sinner and summoned a dragon that devoured him and dragged away the popes body. In short noafumi sent the pope to hell
Sam Smith it was at that moment, the pope knew...he f*^%#d up.
He loses most of his buffs and vitality. Yet due to his insaaane resistances he just turns "normal" for a few days.
Oh yeah, the anime didn't explain those
@@justsomeguywithhalfamustac4600 you can't add little writings everywhere, in anime. You must learn that different forms of entertaining have other ways of working, and/or scenes that wouldn't work well in animation 1:1 with the manga.
The Queen is the best DAMN woman in this damn series.........
Wrong, that belongs to raph
I think you mean Atlas
If anyone knows the revenge comes full circle next episode 😂🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hint: next episode is titled Naofumi’s triumphant return 🔥
Hint: two people get a name change
Hit me up with some info
skeletor the boy who is definitely not a skeleton Spoiler warning: myne and the king lose their royal titles and their names are changed to bitchie and trash😂
And Melty's sister or Bitch gets a slave curse then the King becomes the Queens little torture pet. I am ready to sit back and relax for the PC police and feminists to rage about it.
Really hoping they go with the manga version and not the LN. All the satisfaction and catharsis we've been waiting for... just without one seriously uncomfortable/bizarre curve ball from the Queen.
@@Boy-fv6rmcan't wait mate
That blood sacrifice was really bloody
no joke
and pretty berseker armor like.. oh wait
Blood for the blood god.
Not yet. That comes next. Also, I so ship Naofumi and the Queen. Can you imagine all the good they could do together with Naofumi as King tending the people around the kingdom?
The king is also a hero, that's why he's married to the hot milf. But it's becuz if the power and a bitch daughter. He became the dumbest person.
The Queen is too old tbh
We're getting closer and closer until we meet my 2 favorite characters from the manga/ light novel. Can't wait
b and t
SenselessBonkai you mean the scythe guy?
I didn't take it as him Lossing himself I took it as the shield is getting stronger nafoumi is underestimating the curse of the shield etc... And if he keeps using that shield he's going to be consumed by the curse shield serie.
Exactly. Iron Maiden only drains his SP to zero. Blood Sacrifice does...what it does. One is a far higher price to pay and the risks will likely be worse for stronger Curse skills.
Dude it’s called blood sacrifice it sacrifice blood to kill the enemy but nearly kill the user
Never thought I would see a "Jack in the box" in a form of a dragon crushing the Pope in it's jaws. It was a deserving death for him, but costed a lot of blood from our boi Naofumi. He's going to survive, and Queen's arrival is going to fix the current problems concerning our shield bro.
That looked more like a bear trap
@@AC-sv4yc that too, but that wait time was getting a little long because I thought nothing happened. you can play a jack n the box theme song to get the punch line.
Seeing the pope get offed like that is both satisfying & disturbing
He be dead SONNNNNN
Need a mop?
@@zacharyrodriguez4348 gonna have to be some industrial grade shit used on that... its too much for a swiffer to handle
I LOVE! How in this serie the strenght of Naofumi has sense, it like how you explain in the end of the video. Everothing have sense and i love it!!
One thing they didn't show was the new shield, Shield of Wrath (basically Shield of Rage 3). The higher the level this shield the harder it is for Naofumi to resist the rage. That is why it took all three girls to pull him back.
still felt like a typical nakama scene. with the power of friendship, you will overcome even the stronger rage mode
@@Exel3nce true but also keep in mind he was warned to stop using that shield that it would not be something he could control ultimately.
@@robitusscyth9486 which makes it even worse
The life of a tank main is a perilous one. Not only that but a thankless one. It requires a level of silent pride in one's own work.
Everyone wants to be dps of some kind and even healers get thanked more regularly than tanks. No one really realizes just how much damage you absorb as a tank but the do know how much they've been healed.
-blood sacrifice- GIANT BEAR TRAP NOODLE
Now *THAT* Is a danger noodle!
I actually would have preferred seeing the bear trap version.
*Naofumi on the ground bleeding out
Queen: still takes time to stand and introduce herself
Naofumi is gonna get his revenge for real in the next episode tho.
Hit me up to what happens
Same here please do explain
Pope: no one can stop me now.

Me: damn you Medea
I love this anime, the story is so good, gonna miss it when it ends in around the next five weeks from now.
the only thing that is rlly good is the ost, not the story :)
best episode is next episode :D also queen is hot as heck.
Enter Bitch
7:00 This is why I play healer in ff14 I am basically the parties God.
Can't wait for next episode...justice gonna be served
The entire point of the rage shield is to consume his consciousness and allow him to be completely taken over by a single emotion (rage). This episode he unlocked a new shield which is called the shield of Wrath. It's the shield unlocked by allowing the dragon inside of his armor to take control of his emotion and multiply his feelings of anger. In the light novel Fitoria tells him that the rage shield will eventually take over his mind, which then lends into the idea of his party having to get through to his inner thoughts to help him come back to his senses. It's a skipped scene from the anime that would've made this episode (and the rage shield ) make more sense. Maybe they'll tell the anime only viewers later on, as they've already switched up a couple major plot points.
Well, what did you expect? A brutal death for a brutal tyrant. It's like they say, those that seek to betray and bring false testimony against their neighbor usually find themselves betrayed and lied upon as a result. Speaking of which, the TWO most hated people in this anime are going to get *WREKT* in the next episode, and new names will be decreed for the undynamic duo.
**SPOILERS**
The King get's the name *TRASH* LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
Myne gets the name *BITCH* Pretty spot-on 🤣🤣🤣
Oh and it gets better, referring to their old names becomes a crime that can land you in jail LOL
Shaming the name of God does that to you peaceful iterations all the way
Man. When the 1st OP dropped, my God that was bad ass. I love it when shows have a "big" battle and the OP starts playing.
Well isn't Naofumi the tank and healer in the party?
Andres Escamilla Aw shi..... MEDIC!!!!!!!
Never understood why they thought he was useless having a shield. Tank/support is the most important class. Anyone can be a high lvl dps but without the tank, you get annihilated in raids.
they were all solo players who used strategy guides instead of learning the game
Remember that Naofumi isnt prestiege lol
The way the Pope died... damn... 💀😅
But damn Naofumi was such a savage 🔥😤🛡
"That Pope was a dope🥴!
He was at the end of his rope🧗♀️.
For his resurrection he could hope🙏,
but we all know it's a big Nope👎!"
The flashback immages are Anime only~ish
I Like the Manga approach waaaaay better.
First of all before using the Rage shield He holds out his hand to raphtalia and tells her to hold it.
This Shows really good that he will do another dangereous step with the rageshield and he will need Help.
Then He tells the shield to grow.
And you see him in pain as well as him talking to himself remembering the pain.
But only one frame where you see a sketch of evil faces from the King, the princess and spear hero.
Rest ist darkness and cursing.
And shortly before getting consumed remembering the vow to the filolian queen, and then filo steping up embracing him too "is it okay If firo eats up this black stuff"
And then He finally gets his consciousness back.
You see the small princess holding him too, but she does not getting into His mind.
Which makes sense.
Oh ... and He is Not only sacraficing His Life AND cursing himself, so he can't be healed.
Plus...the next Episode will BE Justice xD
Oh...and the kathedral was also Not in the Manga.
And the Queen freezes all of them.
Aaand naofumi doesn't Order the others Heroes around Like they are super besties.
This will only create an unrealistic realationship between them and cause Problems in the next Arc.
Oh no, Myne still has her just desserts coming. Just wait til next week. *mwahahahaha*
yeah what she did to shield bro barely, if atall, had anything to do with the pope's/king's plans, she did that largely because she thought it'd be fun, because she's a psychopath
This is my none filtered thoughts on this episodes
The 20th episode of Tate no yuusha no Narigari was Amazingly Fantastic seeing the queen in armour was cool, filo picking up Motayasu gave me a chuckle and the seeing how not even the rage shield's flame could damage the pope was neat. Seeing the dragon rage shield transformation was a shock, a bit of a scare and in a way existing and the rage shield's new design looks really cool but the scene where Raphtalia,Filo and Melty talking him down was just wholesome and the music with the scene just fitted so perfectly. Seeing Naofumi ask for help was surprising and Motoyasu's line "We need to prove that friendship and strong bonds will always prevail" made me laugh because of how generic that line sounded. Everyone fighting together and hearing the old theme was just simply epic no other word to describe it.
seeing the Queen use some magic was cool and seeing the dragon rage shield's power was surprisingly fascinating and weird.
Overall this episode was amazing with surprise around every corner with some scary scenes mixed in, really great music and voice acting for the sub an I can't possibly predict what will happen next.
THE brutality 🥵🥵🥵
Every "level" of shield of Rage (I and II, and now Shield of Wrath III) is harder and harder to keep in check. At ln 11/12, it gets even worse.
Superb episode! Pope Balmus got wrecked by the iron dragon!!! 😂
Rising of the Shield Hero: Beartrap Serpent
Jigsaw eat your heart out
@@ferretzim8694 👏😂
Funny fact, Blood Sacrifice consume not only tons of blood but as well that skill reduce for 30% stats of the user XD
Where are my people fully caught up in the manga ? My boi ryuku is best character
Chibi bro when Raphtalia said "I'll cut through your sorrows" I know that hit your feels, we alwaaaays need those moments
i kinda disagree with your "flaw" in the episode it was stated that naofumis rage surpasses the dragon so for him to be able to just easily dawn the shield and its armor would have been dumb especially since the filo queen said that using the shield would be bad in the long run
Smile in the beginning remind me "Solo Leveling" smile.
And Queen enter in the manga it was so good: " Medical team! You first priority is to treat the Shild Hero! You absolutely must not allow him to die! THIS IS A ROYAL DECREE!"
Chibi I think they showed Naofumi lose control again to show us the side effect of using the rage shield
Too much
That’s how the rage shield works it literally overwhelms you with the worst of yourself and the seemingly inexhaustible rage it comes with
There's more Revenge coming
The best offense is the best defense.
WHOA that was great but how would the Queen and the Heroes deal with each other as it seems the Queen respect Naofumi.
Well I think the reason they redone the Shield losing himself is because of the Dragon is poking at his mind attempt to make him lose himself its to show its a never ending battle between him and the dragon/rage cursed Shield
Also what happen to the malty as I believe the Queen is aware of her actions.
Side note: rember the filolial queen said not to use the power of the curse which makes me believe their is more to it that meets the eye and she give him something to help control it but not cure it like I said a never ending battle between Naofumi and Dragon for control of power
The Dragon has nothing to do with Naofumi's Hatred. Go watch the Entire anime again. It's all Naofumi. The dragon did nothing.
Ture its his hatred but the dragon is encouraging him to hate and revenage so techinally the Dragon is still trying to convice him to lose himself for power, also if the dragon did nothing what about those purple eyes then as they start to appear upon consuming a bit of the dragon.
@@wolvesofold2165 Well, he's only Galvanizing it. He admitted that Naofumi's hate is stronger. And he won't probably have any more influence then this. It's gonna be all Naofumi's after this. Cuz thw Dragons hate is gonna be too silent and weak to reach Naofumi. At least that's what it seems it will become. Since it's already stronger then the Dragon's.
Can you now let ma boi upgrade!? the waves and the fan lady are gunna get CRUSHED!
I wanted them to break the popes weapon, and let him go on his crazy villain rant about how he's good before he gets killed. It would've made it more satisfying when he gets uber crushed xD
No going to lie when the 4 heroes finally worked together and the opening starts playing I was hyped.
One of the best things I saw in this episode which I don't see anyone talk about, is the face Naofumi does at the end of the episode. Like he is basically saying with his face " I don't trust you in the least", the hatred is intense
In manga this episode look much much better just a personal opinion
No it's NOT. The manga skipped a LOT of details which are fortunately covered by the anime adaptation.
Naofumi: Help me i'm dying
Queen: ....
News: The queen was arrested for involuntarily manslaughter and as the clip shows here that she was just standing there pretending to not know what to do.
Is he gonna use this title next week too?
video on my graduation day!! good stuff
Can’t wait for next weeks episode
I loved How the Pope was So Blinded By his own Self righteous Delusions that he Didn't realize what Naofumis Attack Actually Did his reaction was Hilarious lol
The next episode is what we been waiting for, for so long! lol
All hail Chibi
*Naofumi Wins, FATALITIY.*
*Skarlet would be proud of you*
It’s nice to see the cursed shield actually having some ramifications for using it. So far it’s just been “ooooh evil shield scary, makes you angry. Don use it it’s bad”
This series has been making me want to see a shield only class and maybe some legendary weapons that level up and adapt alongside you. Similar to the heirlooms in WoW right now but capable of changing it's own stats for specific situations.
When thw other heroes told him he had an op shield, there's even a quick line where Naofumi thinks "you guys just aren't using your abilities properly!"
He definitely was more rage than when Filo was swallowed. He has Myne right next to him and he has to defend people who he hates. He is confronted with all that baggage while being asked by the same people to save them when they are class upgraded and 20+ levels higher. It is how all of us humans would have reacted. To be forced to help those whom ruined your life and still do not believe you that would cause me to go Rage mode. The scene was powerful and confirm to Naufumi that he has multiple friends who will have his back and curse those that curse him. Also it was confirmation to Naufumi that he indeed is a righteous person. Definitely needed and powerful meant to signify his change on the Shield Hero position and World and people who love and care for him. He sees the gesture and it halts the over rage.
I loved this episode! Great animation and great fight!
Naofumi - talks to Dragon, realizes it is his hatred, his party runs to him screaming naofumi, naofumi rage bursts them back clutching his head, in full dragon armor, scene end.
the healer and tank comparison hit to close to home i am crying from laughter
So I just read in the Light Novel what happened in this episode about a day before it aired and I was so excited for it! The episode is not as brutal as the LN but I am surprised how much they did show.
A couple of things were different, so in the LN they actually attack the followers to stop them assisting the Pope, the other Heroes get KO’d and It’s not just Naofumi’s blood it uses but his bones too (properly gory).
Oh and If you were happy with his revenge in this episode the upcoming ones are going to feel so so good (insert evil smile here)!
