 A flyer posted on Yoshimi Bookstore's official Twitter account has revealed that the light novel series Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari (The Rising of the Shield Hero) will receive an anime adaptation. A preview is set to premiere on July 1st at this year's Anime Expo in Los Angeles, California.Synopsis Naofumi Iwatani was summoned into a parallel world along with 3 other people to become the world's Heroes. Each of the heroes respectively equipped with their own legendary equipment when summoned, Naofumi received the Legendary Shield as his weapon. Due to Naofumi's lack of charisma and experience he's labeled as the weakest, only to end up betrayed, falsely accused, and robbed by on the third day of adventure. Shunned by everyone from the king to peasants, Naofumi's thoughts were filled with nothing but vengeance and hatred. Thus, his destiny in a parallel World begins...

| IT IS ANNOUNCED>>IT IS FKING ANNOUNCED>>>>HELL YEAH>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BEER AND PIZZA FOR ALL >>>if ui could but you know what i mean. |
| THIS AND SOUMA S3 ? WHAT A GREAT DAY !!! |
| Wonder how much it will adapt. With like 16 volumes out already I thought it'd have been announced way earlier if at all. |
 |
| hope a good studio adapt this it have romance? |
 |
| I hope a good staff and studio works on it. I'd be pissed if it was butchered |
| The manga (which I think is faithful to the novel) went downhill pretty quick though after a very good start. Only watch if a recognized studio picks it up. It does. But it's almost one-sided. |

| YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BOI I MORE HYPE AT THIS THAN SOUMA S3 ASFGASFAGSFAS |
| Can't wait~ Wonder who will voice Raphtalia.. |
 |
Horie Yui if they go by the drama CD. I think her voice would be perfect for Raph. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Not surprised this got an adaptation. Looking forward to it |

| I've read the manga and this is an Isekai anime with some dark edgy shit which everyone will love, just wait until this dominates MAL at some point. |

| SHIELD BROOOO!!! bout damn time |
| FUCKING BEST NEWS!!!!! |
 |
| Holy fucking shit this is actually happening!!! And a preview already in just a few days? Perfect! @salokannel2 |
| Nice to know, heard alot of good stuff about this one, seems interesting enough, another LN to pick before the anime airs then. |
 |
| With all the hype in this thread, it's crazy to think that I've never heard of this until just now. As usual, I won't buy into the hype until I actually see this for myself. Don't want to set my expectations too high only to be extremely let down if it ends up sucking. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
Robiiii said: Yh saw this^^Holy fucking shit this is actually happening!!! And a preview already in just a few days? Perfect! @salokannel2 I want a shield also .-. |
 |
| Definitely looking forward to this. I hope they keep it faithful to at least 2 cour. Studio...hmm I'm not really sure which to adapt. We'll have to wait and see. Maybe they'll reveal that at the anime expo along with the PV. |
|
| Okay legit surprised this actually got adapted. Now we just need Mushoku Tensei as well, amirite? Doubt this can actually cover much considering how damn many volumes there are though, but still pretty cool |
  |
| MC receives a legendary shield huh. That's pretty interesting. I'm hoping it doesn't transform to any offensive weapon or some sort. Or was it also stolen by the thieves? |
 |
| Was not expecting this. I've bought the first 6 LNs myself and finished reading them. Curious as to which studio will take this.. Anyway, looking forward to it :) |
 |
| Fuck yes,! I love the manga I'm so excited! I really should read the LN though since the manga comes out monthly... |
| Is the savior of isekai finally here? |

Don't want to set my expectations too high only to be extremely let down if it ends up sucking. If you liked Gate, you'll like this. Gate is shit in my book though. This is actually 10 times better than Gate so even if you didn't like Gate, you still might like this. It was a 10/10 for me at the beginning but then it soon became 6/10 as the story got dragged on. In the beginning I really felt Naofumi's despair but then it started to look extremely ridiculous as if the whole point of the story was to make us, the readers, feel sympathy for Naofumi and then celebrate his achievements because of his triumph due to his sheer determination against all odds and often riding the luck. I mean there are characters who exist in the story just to look down on Naofumi for no apparent reason. The antagonists of the story are so lame that it takes away a lot from the enjoyment. I think the only reason I managed to keep on reading the story so far is because of Raph (the demi-human in the news picture above). I only read the manga. I never read the LN and the WN. So, there is a chance that the story might have actually gotten better later on. So, yeah. I think keeping the expectation low would make you enjoy it more. |

Other than Guin Saga (which doesn't count) has anything else ever had a first anime adaptation later? Even Rokujouma only had 14 volumes out... |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |

I can understand you. it does kind of drag on with the second arc. but after that. their is a massive improvement and huge character development for everyone. so if u will be a bit more patient it will get better. if u are reading the manga than you will see the improvements right around ch 50 if they adapt it at the pace as it is. |
| Finally! hoho guaranteed this one OP. hopely they dont mess up, 14 volumes already, pls be the right studio |

|
| It's about time. I was planning on reading this for a while, but never got around to it mostly because I was hoping for an anime announcement. |
kuuderes_shadow said: Though the planing for Rokujouma goes way back on vol 4 or 6 if I'm not mistaken.Paulo27 said: Wonder how much it will adapt.

Anyway rather than this (though nice series on it's own) I would rather have Sevens to get an anime instead just to show how hard it is if you actually have harem with blood-lusted member. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Oh shit, shield bro got an anime? What? I said: SHIELD BRO GOT AN ANIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Germs_N_Spices said: No..... Mushoku Tensei is the real MesiahIs the savior of isekai finally here? |

mozgow said: Just as @jc9622 said, can someone, without too many spoilers, explain what is it about? And what's so good about it? To sum it up without doing major spoilers -The MC gets framed and betrayed -He is isolated and Alone -His primary weapon is a shield and has no main Weapon -HE uses his intellect and resourcefulness to overcome obstacles. -He is not guilable, he is bitter, resentful, untrusting and adaptable but honest persona( still not very trusting of others but good to the ones he is close) -It has Good Action and Tacticfull Warfare -Politics and Negotiations are a thing. These are just some of the qualities that make the story so good. |

These are just some of the qualities that make the story so good. And he has a monster/furry harem which just makes everything better. But don't take my word for it look at the rating and reviews. :D |
|
| Finally time ! I can hope they will go until ... one of the last chapters of the manga :]. Yes the ones who all know ! |
 |
mozgow said: Its good because the RPG-like setup of the story was following it's game logistic through and thoroughly like Log Horizon. Meanwhile, the hero MC was disdain and betrayed by the world, he became not able to trust anyone and even though he saves someone's ass, he's still labeled as the bad guy. And when he's about to lose all hopes and go to the dark side........................... that's when the story bore more in depth characterization XDJust as @jc9622 said, can someone, without too many spoilers, explain what is it about? And what's so good about it? |
|
| @-ShadowClaw- Thanks. It doesn't look like a generic isekai story. I'll keep an eye on it :-) @Germs_N_Spices Furries? Count me in :D @Zaphkiel_El_Rem If this was in the summary, I would have no doubts about adding it to my PTW list. Thanks. |
 |
| This has to be a joke at this point. |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |
