The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One 

 

One of the reasons I purchased The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One on Blu-ray and DVD is because I saw it before and decided I wanted a physical copy of this television show. I can't recall if Peter showed it to us on Funimation, Crunchyroll or some other anime streaming service. Wherever it was does not really matter. The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One impressed me by tackling some very important issues.

I will warn you that The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One contains some content that some people would consider extremely controversial. In the first episode the Shield Hero is falsely accused of rape and no one believes him. I am still not completely clear why the princess did what she did. She should have access to all the money she needed so why steal his? Just to get in the good graces of the Spear Hero? I suppose.

The second aspect of The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One that could be considered controversial is this fantasy world has slaves and demi-humans. In certain areas part human and part animal creatures (demi-humans) are considered a lower form of life. There are some very important plot elements attached to the slaves and how the Shield Hero treats them.

Four humans from different worlds are sucked into this fantasy world like a role playing video game in The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One. They must fight waves of monsters and keep the citizens safe. The Shield Hero is great at protecting towns and keeping the people safe. The other heroes are not so good at that, and this is shown in The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One.

The issues families can have with The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One are violence, blood, lack of attire, enticement to lust, false accusation of rape, magic, slaves, bad language, and more. The Shield Hero gets a very cynical viewpoint in The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One. He is mistreated and cheated over and over again in The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One. He does rise above those constraints even if if takes the rage shield.

My biggest issue with The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One is how short it is. I have no idea why anime is so expensive and we get so little in terms of episodes. Why is one season split in two? I really wish the industry would correct this problem and make shows like this one more financially viable for families. The Rising of the Shield Hero Season One Part One helps us explore what is means to be a hero.
