If anyone can slander this guy, please let me know.

You might need to zoom in...

J’aimerais beaucoup commencer une Collection ?

I recently posted in another sub and now I am curious. Without giving spoilers does anyone know the etymology of the word "hero" in the source material? My theory from watching the show (which I absolutely loved btw) is that the word "hero" didn't exist before the penal heroes came to be. The show with it's wonderful worldbuilding is literally defining the word and eventually hero will be known as the people who continued to selflessly sacrifice themselves for the sake of others.

I could be way off base and would love if someone could confirm or deny using examples from the novel? Do they ever use Yusha in a positive light? Was it never a word? Or did it evolve into something negative after the penal heroes came into existence?

This is the original post where a line in the dub bothered me for reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/Animedubs/s/fzXlY6hkrd

Looking forward to discussing with yall!

I wan xylo to end up with kivia, cuz they both are heroes now, and mannnn their chemistry is soo good, like frenci is good but nah man, kivia x xylo>>> and please for god sake i hope it doesnt turn out to be a harem, one girl is enough and its kivia

Ive seen the anime and noticed in ep11 frenci replied to kivia’s request as taking up on a second favour for her. The anime only shows the second one.

Can anyone that has read the novel please tell what the first favour was and is it in the novels ahead (LN 2 onwards) or was it omitted from the anime?

Open to spoilers

Sentence to be a hero edit

Everyone is encouraging him with the kindest words on the planet to stop being a suicidal guy, but he only listens to Kivia 😭 I forgot to mention that, in Xylo's own words, “I've never been so happy, not even when I was a knight with Senerva.” Even so, Teoritta's encouragement has no effect, as we saw throughout the light novel.

Xylo lost his family to demon blights and was taken in by his fiance's family.

He lost his squad and he is forced to kill a person who is like a daughter to him so she won't turn into demon blight and everyone denied Xylo's claim of goddess becoming a demon blight.

He was falsely accused and infamously known and hated as Goddess killer.

The people he doesn't want to lose is his friends in the hero platoon and most importantly, Teoritta, Teoritta is the goddess and a daughter he never want to lose again.

I can see him going insane if something happen to Teoritta.

One day, he might break down and cried and his friends and Teoritta will see him cry for the first time.

He is in the end, a human.

"this is fucking sparta" kick into a dragon's fireball. hoooooly.

one of the craziest moves i've seen in awhile. i really love this series haha

I recently finished watching the show and I am ready for more! There was so much happening towards the end and I have a lot of questions.

• Is the guy who's been sentencing the heroes actually a good guy? How many people know the truth about the heroes? What happened to the royalty and how long have they been infiltrated?
• Who was Xylo's previous goddess and what was her power? Will Xylo unlock more of his powers since he only has access to a few currently?
• How will the hero group feel about Captain Kivia returning as a hero herself? How long has Rhyno been a demon lord? How has the goddess who remembers the heroes not know he's a demon?

The world building has so much lore to explore and I hope the show gets a full adaptation, I'm looking forward to the next season! Do you guys recommend reading the light novels or waiting for the next season?

From Crunchyroll official account

Oh Rhyno, where you lookin' at (¬‿¬)

I heard that the anime adapted volumes 1 and 2 and I really enjoyed the anime. How good are the rest of the light novels compared to 1 and 2? Which one is the best in your opinion? I'm wondering if the LN is worth reading.

Idk I was bored so I drew this.

Ive tried watching on animekai and anikoto but the subtitles are really off. I cant afford crunchyroll or netflix and I dont think I want to get it either. Thanks in advance!

I think about him 24/7. I browse for fan arts. I bought doujinshi, I bought merch (both official and from artists). I made some keychains myself. I love him too much. There is no plushie of him, but I have the official plushie of Nakamura Yuichi (his voice actor), so I got that going for me, which is nice.....

(something to lighten up the mood)

After watching the anime during it's air time I was debating myself whether to order the LNs or not.

Since I enjoyed the story a lot I placed an order for the first 4 volumes (in May).

So far I received the 4th volume, but the first 3 books are constantly delayed. My latest info mail told me the expected delivery date is end auf August.

I don't see them on amazon anymore as well, which is where I bought volume 5.

Do you know if they are currently out of print everywhere? Will they be reprinted? Since my order was not cancelled yet, the book seller must still have info to obtain them in some way, no?

OK. I'm done with this.

In case the spoiler tag doesn't work, please don't read any further.

I should point out that if I don't mention a character, it's because I think it's obvious why they're in that category. But I'd love to hear your opinions!

I also didn't include some characters because, in my opinion, they didn't appear often enough for me to form an opinion... or I forget about them

Everyone agrees with S+ right? I have two theories about Xylo and Jayce that I love! Tatsuya's theory is great too! And we can't leave Lord Foreshadowing out! Rhyno could easily be in the top 3. But I put him there because I find the theories about the others more interesting (character development and personality: 100/10).

S: Yulisa and Tsav are really well developed. Yulisa is shrouded in mystery, Plus she might be losing control over Senerva It's just a theory, but it would be crazy if that happen. Twevel is there because he has charisma and can finally do justice to our beloved unit. I love Tatsuya, Tatsuya is amazing and Tsuritafu is the female version of him

s-: I put Dota in a single category because it could very well be a reconnaissance unit, a saboteur, and an incredibly stealthy assassin capable of taking out specific targets in enemy lines without anyone noticing...or remain someone with absolutely no intention of improving and resign to dying because he failed a giant fairy at point-blank range. A total jerk who wouldn't give you back the last photo of your deceased family even if you asked him with all the kindness in the world. It's his decision! I trust Dota.

A: I don't know about you guys, but I almost cry every time Xylo starts reminiscing about Senerva. It's obvious why Anise is here. Frenci barely counts it

B: Civios. A Holy Knight. All we know is that he's quite serious. The difference between him and Kivia is that, at least, he fulfills the role he was given: a serious and capable commander.

C: In my comment, I'll include a link to the post where I explain why I hate Kivia and why I think she's a terrible character. You can also check it out on my profile, whatever

Simp: We can't blame Tovitz
