It's unreal how much this anime fell off from 1 season hoping that season 4 will get at the level of season 1
| Season 1 was only good because of the "revenge" aspect, once that was over, the series lost everything that made it interesting. I just find funny how nobody noticed that until season 2 came out, because before that, S1 had a score of 8.00+ and people were still hyped about the show. |

| People keep acting like “the revenge plot” was the major reason why the first season was good, but that is an extremely singular focused mindset, and this is not even unique to isekai. The first season was good and unique to isekai, because of the well written story / world building, character interactions / dialogue, art / animation, sound / music, voice actors / acting, which all made it really enjoyable to watch. Sure … I will agree that the next seasons were not as good as the first, but they were definitely not as bad as people are making them out to be, and I still enjoyed watching the anime. It did not turn into what you claim is “another classic isekai story”, it is an isekai story, and these anime are often inspired by other anime isekai stories. Some even claimed it was “harem”, the male MC doesn’t even care about relationships and he sees his companions like children he raises, it has no romance in it concerning the male MC, who is focused on other concerns. It mostly sounds like if you didn’t get what you want “revenge story” then the isekai is not good, but I disagree with this perspective. I disagree with the position that the MC had to always be angry, against everyone and everyone against him, and seeking revenge the entire time, this is forgetting about character growth and plot/arch changes that further the anime story. |

Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |

| @MadanielFL Someone must obviously like it if there's 15+ volumes, though. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |

Tell them, GOAT. 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
I agree with you on this.
I also personally love The Rising of the Shield Hero and the constant hate on it won't stop me from loving it.
S2 and s3 weren't as great as s1 and most people think it's the "revenge"...you know what, you already explained that, lol.
Nevertheless, well said.
| @CheliosX Thank you for the support and I am glad we can agree on a show we enjoy. |
