Shield hero mangao how to#

The manga is much more heavy handed in regards to the condemnation of Naofumi, our titular Shield Hero. The main difference between anime and manga thus far are the degrees of extremity. From there he will have to find his own way. For reasons he doesn’t know Naofumi is discriminated against very early on by the upper crust of the fantasy kingdom and he is falsely accused of rape by his only companion and is cast out in shame in short order. They are then given companions so they can go out in separate groups and level up from the coming wave.

All of four Japanese boys, the 4 Heroes, are locked into using a sacred weapon and in Naofumi’s case it is a tiny shield. When arrives he finds that 3 other Japanese boys of roughly the same age range have been summoned as well to save a fantasy kingdom from the incoming wave of monsters. Naofumi is warped from Japan into another world via a fantasy novel he starts reading. There will spoilers for episode 1 and the corresponding manga chapters only.įor those who’ve not seen the episode nor read the manga, here’s a brief explanation.

More to the point I quite like the manga and some of the differences between how it’s chapters were handled as compared to episode 1 of the anime are noteworthy enough to mention in terms of how to write and direct scripts and their relevant scenes. Why the fuck am I comparing the manga adaptation of a light novel to the anime adaptation of a light novel instead of going back to the source material? Simple, I don’t read light novels so the manga is the only other thing I have to go on.
