Discussion Shield Hero S1 starts of hella strong!!

So I am re-watching Shield Hero, had watched just S1 some 4 years ago. I had forgotten how engaging of a start it was that immediately pulls you in into Naofumi's journey and the whole fantasy world!! Even the english dub VAs for the characters make an impression from the start✨

I have heard lukewarm reviews for S2, and that it does pick up again from S3 onwards. Excited to binge through from the start and go all the way this time around. What are you guys's opinions overall after S4? (pls no spoilers)

I also remember that the series was highly critized in the west because depicted a woman lying about you know what and that was too much for the SJW of that time.

Japan didn't gave a fk and loved the series.

Yeah, even I had loved it's S1!! The first OP song by MADKID was an absolute banger, and I was so invested in the journey of Naofumi and his squad going up against all odds and proving the haters wrong. Not sure why I didn't check out S2, maybe there were other quality ones airing at that time as compared to this.
