| It's not surprising Itsuki would end up naive like that after such a backstory having dreams and thinking he's blessed just to end up bullied and belittled, now to be obviously scammed by Bitch as well, Naofumi is too kind so of course he's going to take care of him now |
 |
| Just like with Ren a little while ago, Itsuki believed in Bitch too much that it made him go astray, which he showed during his fight against Rishia, as well as the many forms he took with the weapon he had. Still, I'm glad that Rishia was able to showcase her growing skills as she made easy work of Itsuki. The final piece which made Itsuki snap out of his trance was the letter that Bitch left behind, confirming that she's taken all of his prize money and his "companions" with her, while leaving him in debt, which Naofumi was kind enough to cover as well as take in Itsuki at his village. Itsuki does look properly worse for wear, but with Rishia helping him, hopefully it won't be long before he recovers mentally. Also, we did get an insight of how his own world worked, where powers were a thing and effected how he did during his school life, which looked promising, but came crashing down on him. I'm satisfied with this episode, although how it dealt with Itsuki after being influenced by Bitch was too similar to how Ren went through earlier felt like a copy and paste approach, which isn't a great thing sometimes. If Bitch ever appears again, hopefully she'll be finally taste the punishment she deserves, but for now, the less she gets mentioned at all, the better! XD |
| I kinda thought Itsuki was gonna be worse than Ren somehow, and at this point, I feel my hunch was right. Not only was he a prisoner of his own world, where he played hero since childhood, but his curse turned him into an angel and consequently into a fallen angel too, all while brainwashing people into sharing his own idea of "Justice." I loved the fight with Rishia that showed us how much she really grew in her time with the Shield Hero's crew and the delicate romance that's building between her and Itsuki. I have a feeling that dealing with the Spear Hero's curse will be the worst, since he's last in line. Looking forward to the next episode! |

| God that hurt to watch. It's not often I fast forward a new episode, something I have never seen yet, but I found myself hitting fast forward several times because the stupid was downright painful. Seeing the flashback of how Rishia was treated by him when they bounced her out, I cannot believe she still pines for that douche. If he wasn't such a putz to the point I can't imagine it happened, I'd expect perhaps he slept with her when she was in his party and gave her a toe curling, back arching explosive good time to warrant that kind of devotion lol. I also absolutely despise fights in most anime. Why the f* do they need to call out their moves? Dude fires off that shot that rains a ton of arrows down and for her to initiate her defensive move she has to practically read a whole g'damned paragraph of move name. In reality, by the time you can rattle all that crap off, you'd probably already be full of holes hehe. Also why the hell does she just stand there like an idiot while he rants at Naofumi? Nobody calls him out either on his whole "I'm a hero of justice" schtick while simultaneously shooting at a bunch of innocent children. He even acknowledged that they are slaves forced by Naofumi, so he knows they have no agency and cannot refuse his orders yet he still nearly murders them regardless. Real noble. I can't believe Naofumi was willing to saddle his already strapped domain with Itsuki's debts. To what end?? The Melromarc royal family are responsible for summoning them all, and they so far have supported and hosted the heroes. Well, three at least heh. I'd say they can take on his debts. I'd also be sorely tempted to smack him if he continues this "I'm catatonic" crap more than a day or so. I'd smack Rishia too for good measure, just because I'd be disgusted at her fawning over him :D Rinrinka said: She is definitely most interesting character this season Agreed :) She's insanely cute. Raphtalia better keep on her guard, cuz if Atla suddenly grows up like she did, that's gonna be some powerful competition. Well, if Naofumi had any sex drive that is, which he doesn't appear to have lol. |
| Predictably Bitch used the exact same playbook to manipulate the Bow hero, thus also predictably landing him in Naofumi's lap as well. I wonder where she found that cursed bow add-on.. With such a weak and predictable plot will this anime even get another season? And if it did would it matter? |
 |
| I thought this episode would steal rishias moment to shine, but she did it! this was quite nice overall, all the heroes are together now and its time to move on. you have to give Bitch credit, she managed to make mortal enemies of all the heroes. The balls this women has must be of mithril. PS: I dont know why but I kinda want to rewatch the show from the start again after this, but S2 beeing terrible stops me from thag |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Man... Every single one of the heroes have been so revolting. Imagine if Naofumi was such insecure sore loser too. This world would've been F'd long ago. |
| I confess that I didn't like Rishia in the beginning. Well... she was in Naofumi's group but was like Itsuke's doggie. Now, I can appreciate her presence in the anime. She had her character development and finally conclued her goal of saving Itsuke. Talking about Itsuki's past, it appears that he was some kind of "Nerd" in his previous school, but when he went to the "inteligent people" school, he noticed that he wasn't the first in his class. That final... I think Itsuki's mind is broken now. |
| They have like 3 brain cells. Always the same struggle with this b... Was okay, thats it. Story is average. |

Anyone still watching this Sh**t Show, the downfall of this anime is stripper then mountain slop
| @Shanto_890 I know right? I dropped the show after season 1 and out of curiosity i took a glimse at season 3 and im baffled. It's worse than i even imagined. What is wrong with the author? Was he 12 when he wrote it? |
| really dumbass yuusha !! yep except tate yuusha they all dumb and stupid !!! |
| Another one that got baited by Bitch-sama, it's insane that she tricked all the heroes lmao Let's see if the last episode will show the Phoenix battle or only next season :/ |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| these other heroes still lame as fuck.... meh |
 |
| Am I supposed to feel pity for Itsuki now? I can kind of understand why he was so deceptable to her manipulation, but I already said the same thing when the bitch manipulated Ren and even then I was too stupid to believe. Really embarassing stuff. Also showing the first flashbacks to Itsukis life before getting isekai'ed in Season 3 is just to little to late to care. Also Also, before getting re-introduced to Itsuki, we haven't seen bitch this whole season. She couldn't be less of an character if she tried. |
| This show has had such a downfall from the first season. There is no real development for the characters and the plot armor is so stUpid. |
on 
| I swear the word "justice" started giving me a headache at some point. |
 |
| I have no idea why they do keep falling for her obvious traps. |
| Man, this episode. On one hand, Itsuki being an insufferable jerk who won't shut up and on the other, Rishia. I don't hate her, but it annoys me that her character just revolves around Itsuki argh. Also, it seems that in Itsuki's old world there were some kind of powers huh. |
| Well that was a bit quick but glad we are done with, "The other Heroes suck but Naofumi is so fucking awesome!" Now we can get on to the actual story without the series having to rely on that. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| Such a shit episode. Shit bow hero and his shit side-kick. Even his stupid backstory was lame as fuck. Dear lord they're really out of ideas for this show. |
| Itsuki is even stupider than ren lol basically just throwing a pity party cause he didn't get his way. And yet again beaten by someone else other than naofumi. How weak are they lol Naofumis village is basically just a rehab center at this point lmao |
| That Bow Hero just realized the reality and didn't depend on that evil amulet again... |

| Bow is a spoiled naive brat. Now can we go kill Bitch now?!?!?! |
 |
| Wow, he just copypasted the story from a few episodes ago and called it a day... peak writing. |
| Starting to think Malty/Bitch should've just been executed at the end of the first season. There's only so many times you can have her petty, omnipresent character screw gullible people over before there's not much else you can do her. She just roams the lands trying to mess with everyone for shits and giggles, lol. |

| Rishia is so lovely! Itsuki is such a sore loser, but it's because of his shallow upbringing, especially that mother of his looks sus. He is still a kid, like Ren. It's natural that he would be deceived by Bitch. So, Rishia needs to be the one to be there for Itsuki. Well played. |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Shield Hero S3 drinking game: Take a shot every time the word "Justice" is said during this one episode. 🙃 With the amount of times "Justice" was brought up, might as well have the episode titled something else, like...
I wouldn't be surprised if Itsuki is a fan of the Justice League. The writer/s for this episode might have shaken things up by having Rishia claiming she's an "Avenger" instead. Justice vs Avenger. |
