    In The Rising of the Shield Hero season 2 episode 4 Naofumi sees Glass, L'Arc and Therese again for the first time since Glass tried to kill him. In this video I talk about who Glass is, what powers and abilities she has, and how she will fit into the story of Shield Hero as the series goes on. This means major spoilers from the Shield Hero light novel series, so don't watch if you don't what to know what happens with Glass, whether Glass becomes an ally, or about future characters like Kizuna the Hunting Hero!

    I don't think the other three heroes in Glass' world are killed until later on in the story. They just don't do anything and don't appear in the story.

      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад +34

      Ah, yeah, you're right - I misremembered that (they're just kind of mentioned briefly and died offscreen). Actually, the heroes were just useless at first rather than dead, which still left their world in a dire situation.
      I'll pin this as a correction!

    Around 3:00 to 4:00, you talk about Glass' world only having one Holy Hero alive. This is true, but not because the other 3 had been killed. Holy Heros can be, and normally are, summoned alone. In Kizuna's case, she was summoned alone, without the others, to deal with the threat of the Demon Dragon. This is the same quest that Glass was sent on, where her class mates figured (and overtly hoped) she was going to get herself killed. She ended up meeting Kizuna and becoming best friends. Shortly after the quest completion, Kizuna was captured by a rival nation, accused of being a criminal, and thrown into the infinite labyrinth.
    After that, the other 3 Holy Heroes were summoned (and are presumably real) by 3 unnamed countries. We hear about them being alive between the events of Book 9 and Book 17, having a matter-of-fact attitude towards the waves, thinking of them as "updates". Clearly, the implication is similar to Ren's, Itsuki's, and Motoyasu's worldviews in Books 1-6.

    I don't want to be spoiled, but I'll comment for the algorithm. Also, Glass has a really cool theme. Weirdly I always felt like there were structural similarities and sequences of notes between it and the title track "The Rising of the Shield Hero" but not sure. I'm not at all knowledgeable about music and I couldn't find music sheets for them anyway. My theory was that Glass might be in a similar situation as Naofumi in her own world, particularly the ostracization part, but she seemed to get along with L'Arc and Therese so eh.

    I had gotten confused when people kept saying that three of the heroes in Glass' world are dead when discussing her motivation for invading Raphtalia's world. At lot of people seem to think that and I've seen plenty of people comment on that. However I have since read the light novel and from what I can tell they were still alive as of the events of volumes 8 & 9 when Naofumi first visits their world. No one made any mention of it while he was there. What's more when Ethnobalt shows up in Raphtalia's world after the War of Heroes arc he talks about the deaths of his world's heroes as if it is a recent thing. What's more Naofumi makes note of the monsters being different than before, being strong and giving more EXP following the deaths of most of the heroes. So I believe they die during the gap between Naofumi's visits to Glass' world.
    While I get the other three aren't important to the story and don't survive until the end of the story, it seems like it is inaccurate to claim they are dead as part of Glass' motivation for attacking Naofumi or are dead in context of the anime. Although Kizuna being trapped in a labyrinth in which (allegedly) there is no escape and the other three possibly being incompetent is another story.

    after coming from the web novel, I'm relived that the light novel added someone with restrictions like the hunting hero. I always thought it was the stupidest idea that naofumi had all of those offensive restrictions being the shield hero when the other 3 heroes aren't reduced to glass cannons.

    volume 8~9 points that the 3 heroes summoned to glass’ world were actually effective against the waves….until they weren’t anymore.
    at that point, each of them backed off the waves and each went into the idea that the waves needed an update/patch for the difficulty. Its…practically 10 volumes later that we learn that they got murder-killed.
    also a rather minor mistake as well is that Glass doesn’t have levels at all. all her stats and everything (except for SP) is folded into “Energy” stat for her specific race (spirit people), so even if she jumps worlds, she still doesn’t have levels and people has to make polite guesses whenever they have to gauge her strength in relation to levels.
    edit:
    additional, regarding pacifiers: just like pacifiers have to keep heroes in check, and straighten them if they go rogue… this job is shared on the reverse; Heroes have the duty to straighten the current pacifier, if the later decides they “don’t need heroes to protect the world” and power goes up to their heads (since not only the skills, but also having the “special anti-legendary weapon” the country has can basically turn off the weapons)
    otherwise, an outstanding video!! loved it!

      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад +8

      Yeah, I misremembered a couple of details here (I pinned a comment about the other heroes by way of a correction), but the basic gist is hopefully the same - it's really more to give people who don't know and want spoilers more of an idea about Glass and what is to come with her so I didn't double check all the stuff I was saying about mechanics and whatnot like I do if it's a video all about those systems, iykwim.

    Spoilers:
    As far as we know so far in the anime it's impossible to summon new holy heroes if 1 dies unless they all die. but we know about at least 1 very specific exemption. Shildeena the Future Holy Ofuda hero. but that was only possible because she couldn't be summoned at the start of the waves being behind a special barrier around Q'ten lo. and then being summoned by the Ofuda spirit when being close by to the Boat spirit when Naofumi was returning to Glass world.

    So the rules to the world of shield hero’s story is basically like how SAO Kirito can go to gun gale online as a newbie but can use his square slash attack from aincrad days. In this case, Naofumi can dimension step at the cost of his level and stats, but his skills like merchant and herbalist are still kept. It kinda reminds me of when you get all your lvl 72 OP 8 gear in Borderlands 2 and then the Lilith DLC was released. You need to level up 8 more times and replay the digistruct peak cause old lvl 72 op 8 is now equal to lvl 75 op 0.

    Totally agree about the two old masters. Their fights they had, it always had this aura of "foreplay" to it. Not sexual or anything, but it was just, I know, just so damn charming. You defiantly get that feeling of a widow and a widower finder each other and falling in love after many years of loneliness after loosing their spouse, that sort of vibe.
    I've often had these thoughts of how I would love my personal perfect ending would be of Shield Hero, you, if I wrote it. And one of them was the Rishia ended up being the de facto Henga Muso master of Raphtalia's world after the waves were over, passing the knowledge on to people there. And the old lady would pop over to Glass' world and marry the old master of Glass', and they would both teach their stiles to new people. Both living for another 100 years, sharing each others love through their fists, ikn, always though it could be super fitting.
    Just like for once an attraction being shown through the respect of their fighting technique, and it not being sexual. Having what feels very much like an attraction between a man and a woman which is sexual by nature being portrayed none sexually. I thought it was very cool, yet still as sweet and heartwarming as any romance or attraction can be.
    Ohh, and btw, also love Glass. She's such a bad ass character! And fun so see the respect there is between Naofumi and Glass given the "hatred" between them in the beginning. Also thought is was a cool concept with her as a race, having a race of people that are spirits but literally having a corporeal form. We always think of spirits as ghosts or, well, anything but corporeal. They are quite literally the opposite to human beings in that regard. So the idea of her having the same strengths and weaknesses as a spirit, yet still being in a fully human form, I always found that fascinating. Same with the Jewels, what an amazing concept. But that's to early to comment here, that for the L'Arc and Therese video.

      The female demon dragon is hilarious! As for Ren, I think it would be a nice story if he ended up with Wyndia, but I like him with Eclair more and you can't give Ren a proper harem because he's Kirirto, so he needs to have one actual waifu and then that weird SAO harem dynamic!

      @@NatalieXHunter Agreed, he's the one who can't have a harem cause of his apparent Kirito inspiration. Eclair is the most obvious choice for him, I just love the backstory with the other girl. And given that badass scene at the end of (can't remember the novel number), where Ren and this guy is fighting as a pair, it could seem as an open door at least for approval from dad. Itsuki would probably go for Rishia, does seem sparks are going on.
      Guess we just have to wait for the author to come back from his hiatus. I know he was involved heavily in season 1 and has done a few minor projects as well. My guess is there is 5'ish volumes left, give or take. And given fans wasn't to fond of the first two drafts of the ending, he's writing a new ending in one go. Or using what is still there, just making it into LN format. Guess we just have to wait and see. Would just love too see at least some news of what's going on. But I guess no news is good news.

    • @NatalieXHunter
      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад +1

      I think the hiatus is just because the author was working on the Reprise of the Spear hero light novels - they fit in the current arc of the main LNs so I guess this was the right time to do them (and they've been completely rewritten from the original web novel version of the spin off too). But as someone who quit writing novels altogether and became a RUclipsr due to lockdown-induced writer's block, I think a lot of authors struggled with it and perhaps had lower outputs or picked less intense projects during the last two years... I'm sure they'll be back to the main series soon.

I've been trying to figure out what is the name for each art style but its been pretty difficult. Initially i wanted to know what the stereotypical modern anime art style is called but wasn't able to find a definitive answer(only name i found was "Puni Plush"). If you've got any insight on this it would really help me out. If not thats cool too.

    It was never said which, but Naofumi's first visit in Kizuna's world, there are hints that Kizuna already had a curse series. (On seeing Naofumi's, L'Arc tells her how different his from her's). Amd it seemed like she got the sloth from the accessory that was attached when she got kidnapped, and the fact that her friends didn't knew about the other effects makes it sound like it was new too.

    • @NatalieXHunter
      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад +1

      Yeah, it's possible she had a different one beforehand - I kind of took it as her always having sloth and having some skills from that, but it not going fully haywire until the accessory was attached (like, Naofumi only has wrath, but he didn't get a bad kickback from it until he unlocked and used blood sacrifice, so I sort of figured Kizuna had some sort of early form of sloth that changed as it got stronger). Still, with this being a spoiler video where I'm trying to explain a lot of concepts mostly for people who haven't read the series, I figure it's fair to just say she has sloth, as she does, and it completes the set (a lot of people asked who had sloth after my video about the other three heroes).

      I kinda get a Final Fantasy V vibe from all this. It seems that the waves merge worlds somehow... So wouldn't what would REALLY happen is Glass and Raphtalia's world would merge together? Or something is merging worlds. Raphtalia's World was merged at least twice, Glasses world probably was as well, but S'ynes was destroyed. There are two competing powers at play or something.

    • @NatalieXHunter
      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад

      Are her beliefs wrong, though? We don't know that killing the holy heroes dooms both worlds. We have seen people from one world (S'yne's enemies) who have survived by helping with the destruction of other worlds, and one world (S'yne's) that has been destroyed, so it seems like what she believes may actually be true (I am talking in terms of the LN canon, the WN canon may be totally different on this). Kizuna just can't condone it, and persuades them to work together to find out if there is another solution, which leads to them trying to find the actual root cause of the waves. When they go back in time and the waves are different, it seems they were originally set up as a literal death match between two worlds, with the intention being to kill heroes for the entertainment of the god-like beings behind it (so it was all Squid Game for aliens all along, more or less). Therefore, killing the heroes of another world wouldn't seem to doom both worlds - it would seem to be how the people were originally told they could 'win'. It would seem that that other solution Kizuna wants to find is something the weapons themselves don't know about, so they'd have no reason not to do what seems to be the only thing that would protect their worlds, just like Glass.

    You spoke about the romantic interest, but aside from Raphtalia and maybe Filo(although i think hers is by no means romantic) is there other girls that actually fall in love with Naofumi? and does he ever reciprocate? or does he treats them like raphtalia in an one sided love forever?

    • @NatalieXHunter
      @NatalieXHunter  2 года назад +3

      There are absolutely loads that fall in love with him - it's actually a feature he has that demihumans and monsters are attracted to him, so there's even an actual demon dragon who wants to 'mate with him'... But, as of currently in the LNs, he hasn't properly reciprocated with anyone, though he is going towards getting together with Raphtalia.
      At first he's just put off sex altogether because of Myne, but later, something happens that makes him want to be a bit more open about that aspect of things. But, generally he just seems to think there is too much other important stuff going on to really start a relationship, so while he starts being a bit more romantic with Raphtalia and even mentions marriage, he's really thinking more about that being a thing after they resolve all the other stuff going on and don't have to worry about saving the world all the time. I think that's actually quite refreshing, I mean, for a pragmatic character like him to be caught up in romance drama during the kinds of situations they are in might be more entertaining but would make less sense!

      Naofumi has no attack power, so when he does use something like that, it just doesn't do any damage. It is unknown why this is the case at the moment in the LNs, because the previous shield hero (who we see when the village gets sent back in time) can use some attacks like that, as well as shield bashes. My theory is that in his time there were only the shield and bow heroes, so the shield was less specialized. After that world merged with the world of the sword and spear heroes, so there were four holy heroes, the shield became more fixed in its role as pure defense.
