Tate no Yuusha anime

How is there no thread on this? Unless I missed it

How bad is this going to flop Sup Forums? I'm gonna keep my expectations low

Had no idea this was announced, first light novel I read until the end, really enjoyed it. Having said that it will probably flop, but I will love to see people's reaction to it.

>How is there no thread on this? Unless I missed it
Missed it by a few days, buddy.

>slowpoke.jpg

the nice thing is we'll have more loli tanuki

Good thing that they'll only get to the early bits which actually have some imagination before it turns into generic bullshit plus the author venting his issues with women.

you missed a lot of threads for the past could of days

Anyone know where the PV is gonna be shown at AX? I don't know whether it'll be at a panel or shown randomly during some anime

...

It has an edgy mc, girls, blood and action.
Perfect material for those rebellious teenagers, season 2 SOON cause streaming sales.

This is a nice Raphtalia, do you mind if I save it?

Go ahead.

It came from one of the previous threads.

kadokawa panel i think? june 1, can't miss it.

I wonder what's taking the TLers for the manga so long, the manga chapter should be up by now.

...

Not gonna flop
>Isekai anime when Isekai is in prime popularity
>Edgy as fuck hero
>Harem
>Lots of lolis in harem
>Misogyny

mofos gonna tear into this shit

That is what i'm afraid of.

>kirito with a shield
lol no

Actually the closest to a kirito that makes sense would be one of the other heroes, since they come from an sao-like world.

So I never read this series. Is the main draw of this series that the MC is a total edgemeister?

I mean, fuck. If you're doing isekai, remember that the original goal is escapism. Nobody wants to be a moody cunt as a fantasy.

>I mean, fuck. If you're doing isekai, remember that the original goal is escapism. Nobody wants to be a moody cunt as a fantasy
It's not being a moody cunt, it's being a super cool and cold "nothin personel" dude who is so serious and superior to all the other retards and has a hard made of coldsteel that doesn't make him hesitate when he has to eliminate his enemies.
There are many point who self-insert into this kind of edgy characters.

MC does get a bit better over time, but yes he is initially quite an edgemeister, similar to early Arifureta. Depending on how long the anime is he'll be in major Edge mode for most of the show.

>Is the main draw of this series that the MC is a total edgemeister?
He softens up a lot however. But he's still jaded and grumpy most of the time and he never really lets those grudges go until waaaay later.

There are more edgy isekais though.

Ah, so a Coldsteel. That makes more sense.

...

>coldsteel
Not really. Read the first 8 chapters of the manga, you'll see why.

Kawazu gag anime when?

Cept that Naofumi started out as the weakest and the poorest, their only similarity is that they're both hated in the beginning then worshipped

I hope they don't speed past it like the manga.

Doubt it would flop. But at any rate the LNs aren't really selling that well, a few months ago I remember seeing vol 17 selling around 5k? The anime will give it a much needed boost.

>muh edgelord

Is this meme still going?

Read the LN. People who get shit on don't turn out happy-go-lucky. Sorry kids. You CAN criticize the author for making a darker main character. But his personality change is a realistic outcome to his circumstances.

I do hate characters like Kirito though, because he actually has nothing to be grumpy about.

People shit on characters for having no agency, but now that a MC has agency they call him an edgelord. Mc is traumatized and gradually recovers, but he isn't an edgelord.

>But his personality change is a realistic outcome to his circumstances.
I disagree. He didn't go through enough bad shit to act in the way he does. Having a false rape accusation thrown your way after getting scammed+robbed, plus some bullying was hardly a reason for him to turn into a "darker main character".

Later on we learn that the entire story of him getting shat on was all because he got summoned to a kingdom that coincidentally hates the Shield Hero.

If they do justice to the betrayal and rage it's gonna be the new SAO

Both the ln and manga sell about 20-25k on average. Lastest total number was about 1.2m sold i think

Also one of the heroes from another world got it harder depending on your views on it

Oh right there was also his personality to take into account that allowed him to be burned that hard. While anyone else on his shoes wold have reacted differently, it's his inherent "nice guy" attitude that allowed him to take everything that's happened to him that way.

That aint a satisfactory explanation either though, but it's something.

Nice bait. This is bait right?

>Everyone becomes damaged/used goods.
>Edgy as fuck

Interest will start decent thenl drop as hard as love lab once animeonlys read spoilers for what happens later

>the jaded and grumpy character is reserved only for the one person who had it the hardest

Enough.

I haven't gotten around to reading this yet, but when I see pages with the protag talking, I always hear it in Sugita's voice.

She didnt hold a grudge for long however, all she was thinking about was to het out of the labrynth and be with her friends.

The LN/WN is cringeworthy . You can tell the author is venting his rage at women with his obvious self-insert

What is it about characters holding grudges that make you uncomfortable? So one person didn't. I don't see your point at all.

I don't know why people call it edgy when the only edgy thing in it is the grumpy MC and the bitch princess.
Aside from that there is barely any death, brutality or cruelty. The villains are either generic or just retarded, there are like two deaths that you can give a fuck about and things start going pretty well for Naofumi once the Pope things ends.
It only gets really edgy when Tact shows up and that's like a bajillion chapters in so there is no way the anime will ever reach it. It also gets kind of boring when it's nothing but Naofumi doing random shit in his village. And both things might be meaningless considering the LN apparently went a completely different way.

Enlighten us

Because the LN is edgy as hell mangafag

Lemme read everything again and get back at you on that one. i don't think i've been making a lot of sense here

>mention Tact
>mangafag
I wonder who is the real mangafag.

you
>And both things might be meaningless considering the LN apparently went a completely different way.

Yeah, I read the WN like literally everyone else except Shieldbro and the other people who can into moonrunes. I don't think the LN is even being translated.

>Yeah, I read the WN like literally everyone else except Shieldbro and the other people who can into moonrunes. I don't think the LN is even being translated.
>me
>read moonrunes
Not really. The LN is being translated however, vol 8 just came out recently!

It is? I'll check it out then.

Not sure if vol 8 got uploaded @ the goddess already. i'll do it if it hasn't yet.

I stopped reading about the time he goes full edge. Does it get any better?

around what chapter or ln volume was that?

2015 is calling

I don't know, he essentially goes edge lord super saiyan and gets offensive skills and some mysterious evil chick shows up who gets a hard on for him.

If you think Shield Hero is bad in terms of "edge" you need to read more isekai. Shit like Redo of Healer makes Shield look tame in comparison.

For example, at least Shield never lets himself get drugged and raped so he has a valid casus belli to take revenge on everyone that has wronged him. Shield is more like a grumpy, miserly jew compared to revenge-porn like Redo's MC.

Who do you want to play the OP/ED?

I feel like japan is pushing for MYTH & ROID to play in all newer isekai.

ClariS

Not to mention also Ndome no yuusha and dungeon seeker.

Ah, you're probably in pic related right? Keep reading, shit is gonna get real after that.

momoiro clover z

why does that sound like an all-girls band?

>lower than arifureta and remonster

Makes me think.

Yeah it's a shame, but it's doing well enough to warrant 18 volumes. An anime will raise that by a lot so this can only be good for the author and the editor working on it.

Angela please.

I don't suppose you know a site I can get an RSS feed for this manga? The only site I've found it on is MangaKakalot and they don't do RSS afaik.

>lower than remonster

...

There's no way nips' taste can be this shit. How wretched must your childhood be to believe fucking Re:Monster is worth your time?

>typical japanese youth
i wonder...

It's complete shit besides Tanuki and as such, will not flop at all.

There's seems to be an error in communication here. I was implying that the fact that the manga/LN was selling lower than the garbage that is Re:Monster is a sad state of affairs. I have no idea how you thought I was implying that Re:Monster was good.

I was just posting a thread-accurate alternative to the image the user posted.

This guy looks like an edgelord.

There's no error in communication. Re:Monster is irredeemably shitty, no doubt. Yet nips are eating that shit. Shieldbro has issues, but it's way better than that. Why they can't see it? Why are they buying more of Re:Shit when even fucking hentai has better plot than that.

Hi there! You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of Sup Forums are always willing to help you clear this problem right up.
You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, when your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation. Oops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started. Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form.

Now, there's no need to thank me. I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous imageboard culture.

And you may be right, but not most of the time.

Hi there! Kindly fuck off.

Fair enough, I thought this post here was implying that I thought Re:Monster was good. Nevermind.

Flop this, flop that, is selling the only thing that matter nowadays?

>lower than arifureta
Don't see anything wrong here

It's been a while since I've seen any kind of tripfags engaging in faggotry on Sup Forums. Is that still a thing?

Cept that he was labelled a criminal which is quite damaging to a normal Japanese otaku, was hated on first contact, received unjust treatment in businesses, and born in a country that considers him the devil

Well considering how it can potentially popularize the source material, be the reason it gets axed, or has no effect whatsoever, yes it is the main concern. It's one of the only things to consider for a long series that has no chance of ever being fully animated

i've been posting manga chapters everytime they go out.

>Read the LN.
Eat shit, I am not going to read some NEET's self-wank. If director, scriptwriter and storyboarder (actual working poeople) won't make it tolerable for me, no one will.

Apparently its gonna be shown at their booth, I hope they at least have a start time so that I don't have to hang around it the whole time there

>we learn that the entire story was all coincidentally
So, you admit it was an asspull, glad we agree.

>character head next to big question mark.jpg
i love these

>You can tell the author is venting his rage at women

Yes, so? Is a man not allowed to hate a woman for whatever reason no matter what?

And it's not like he hates womankind. Both his followers Firo and Raphtalia who are female are stronger than him.

All of it was the work of a N-th dimensional bitch god that set everything up to strip the planet of it's defenses, the heroes, and eat/destroy the world for the lulz.

still an asspull if you consider it so.

It's fucking inevitable it's Myth & Roid

He really isn't that bad. He kept operating under a moral code during his edgelord phase even under duress. His animosity towards the princess was fueled by the fact that she never stopped being a bitch towards everyone. Mind you he even forgave the king of all people, but that woman was written in order to be hated and god did the author succeed.

But compared to true edgelords like the unpologetic rapists of Re:Monster and Maou no Hajimekata or the psychotic murderer of Nidome no Yuusha among many other examples, Shieldbro is fairly heroic.

What OP/EDs have they done before

>Is a man not allowed to hate a woman for whatever reason no matter what?
Dat's misogyny! Women are supposed to be put on a pedastel 24/7 user, weren't you paying attention in school?

But seriously this anime is going to trigger SJWs. Mark my words, the feminist crew at MAL is going to have a panic attack during certain episodes.
