The Rising of the Shield Hero

The first season was 10/10, but the second season, in comparison, is an abomination. As of right now, not a single episode of season 2 is worth watching. They are all dreadfully dull and watching them is a waste of time, but season 1 was good enough that I keep watching in hopes it'll get better.

If you were disappointed in Sword Art Online - as I was - then this is the anime for you. As other reviewers have said, this anime is what SAO should have been. From the beginning this series had me hooked.

Sure, there are some over-the-top (e.g. killer penguins and rabbits) or cliche moments, but overall it's really good. There's a good mix of sad and happy moments, which I really appreciated and enjoyed.

I hope season two will be as good.

Don't look boring There are scenes to get excited all the time. The plot is quite good. I like the design of the characters If I typed it wrong, I'm sorry. I'm still not good at English.

If this isekai had only 1 season I would have give it a 10/10 rating. The revenge plot is great and refreshing from the other anime of the same genre. Episode 1 hook you up instantly and each episodes of season 1 are worth watching.

Sadly this anime went for a season 2 and 3 wich are both bland/generic isekai, I think the author didn't understand that what makes this worth it was the relationship between Naofumi/Raphtalia and the revenge plot. Raphtalia become so dull and only becole another member of Naofumi's harem (another problem with the Isekai genre), they keep feeding you new characters you don't care about and the main danger is completely forgotten (the waves of monsters ??? The reason why the MC is summoned in the first place ??)

I still give it a 6/10 because of the perfect first season.

English isn't my first language I hope this review was readable.

I liked how the humble beginnings of the main character came about. Despite the fictional theme, many will surely identify with the hero. This gave me a taste of online gaming (which I'm not very fond of) in a good way. The story didn't feel complete to me though, especially the end. I haven't read the manga version but I do hope a continuation/second season will be released soon after.
