The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 3
Oshimeter
Synopsis
Though he has successfully repelled the latest Wave of Catastrophe, Naofumi Iwatani—the Shield Hero—has no time to rest. Naofumi is spurred back into action when Queen Mirelia Q Melromarc tells him that the three other Cardinal Heroes have disappeared without a trace, and she tasks him with finding them. With no clues regarding their whereabouts, Naofumi tackles a more pressing issue: the worsening slave trade of demi-humans. Determined to right this injustice, he and his friends find their way to Zeltoble, the country of mercenaries, where the illegal sale of demi-humans has become a lucrative business. To gather money to free the slaves, Naofumi and his comrades disguise themselves and take part in underground coliseum brawls, purposely throwing matches to manipulate the odds and eventually secure an enormous payout. However, with the threat of another Wave of Catastrophe looming on the horizon, the Shield Hero must stick to his mission of finding the missing heroes if he wants to protect those he loves.

Kinda redeemed itself from season2, strong character work and improved animations. Storyline was special as well, a lot of flashy moves & effects.
Two new assailants, Very powerful and almost outpowered the shield hero. Luckly Murder Pierrot goes to save the day.
A good way to end the season! Very good cliffhanger showing that there would be another season! Excited to watch the new one!
Okay all the redemption thing, mid mid. But am I missing something? Where is the spear hero? After the fight with the sword hero, then suddenly, poof. Gone? Hmmmm
Bitch is back. When will she get punished? Every time I see her, she ruins the mood, pisses me off and angers me! Hope she breaks her back or something! Director did a good job pissing me off to be honest, 10/10 emotions right here!
His team stole the spot light. But it's okay. The fact that even the sword hero is teaming up with them is a good progress. Still, I need more Shield hero moments.
The cave of the dragon gave this final boss fight which made this episode thrilling and exciting! Action packed. Each scene and magic usage had good animation!
Cute episode with the dragon tho i did not enjoy how it was made. The cgi on the dragon looked ugly as heck on the first part ,you can literally that it had minimal effort in making the dragon's design. But when it grew bigger and strong it got better.
Holes of questions are finally filled here. The backstories finally made sense since a lot of scenes has been shown to provide the lack of info! Now 1 more hero to go!
Really intrigued on how will it go with the fallen heroes. Will they finally team up together? Will Bitch san finally die? The cliffhanger just keeps on coming!
I don't want to curse but, that annoying "Bitch" is back, doing the same thing she did on season 1. What an ass. Because of her, the heroes are falling apart basically. Welp here goes another!
I just literally saw a new shipping moment. Also this episode kinda reminded me of Isekai Slime! Where the MC is on the World building episode! Very exciting for the continuation!
Yup, I'm getting this feeling there would be a love triangle! New Demi-human falls in love with the shield hero! Battle is peak and filled with action!
Season 3 definitely improved! Also the small recap on what happened before did a huge help for fans who forgot what happened. Pacing was good and was not lacking! Very thrilled for the next episode!
We get lore and backstory that ups the stakes for our characters that just adds to the tension. All the storylines are coming together and it just makes for great writing. I think Atla is just the cutest, new best girl. Let the tension build for a new season!
What is with the masterclass Malty, it is so frustrating. Other than her it was nice to see the growth in our other characters and the way they have improved over the course of the season. The different mysterious introduced are building for something great.
Frustrated that Witch is at it again, hope this storyline leads some where other than to angry the viewers. But the gear up for Rishia is something I can't wait to see a this conflict. The cliffhanger was placed just right, well done growth for her too. Plus Atla funny moments.
The planning , fighting, and growth are highly show cased. The teamwork for the whole episode is on point. It gives heartfelt moments and shimmers of pain if it doesn't go well, keeping us on the edge of the seat.
Our poor Filo! Thankfully we get some good character development for our Shield Hero's team and some cool moments for Atla. Ren also gets to confront some hard truths for a redemption.
A cuter episode with character building and a lighter feel, but some darker under tones. The title doesn't lie it is a wonderful set up for Gaelion ,our dragon, and his girl. Most of the episode is a good break from the heavy but a good hint of foreshadowing.
