How is there no thread on this? Unless I missed it

How bad is this going to flop /a/? I'm gonna keep my expectations low

So I never read this series. Is the main draw of this series that the MC is a total edgemeister?

I mean, fuck. If you're doing isekai, remember that the original goal is escapism. Nobody wants to be a moody cunt as a fantasy.

>>159046759
>I mean, fuck. If you're doing isekai, remember that the original goal is escapism. Nobody wants to be a moody cunt as a fantasy
It's not being a moody cunt, it's being a super cool and cold "nothin personel" dude who is so serious and superior to all the other retards and has a hard made of coldsteel that doesn't make him hesitate when he has to eliminate his enemies.
There are many point who self-insert into this kind of edgy characters.
>>
>>159046759
MC does get a bit better over time, but yes he is initially quite an edgemeister, similar to early Arifureta. Depending on how long the anime is he'll be in major Edge mode for most of the show.

He softens up a lot however. But he's still jaded and grumpy most of the time and he never really lets those grudges go until waaaay later.

There are more edgy isekais though.

>muh edgelord

Is this meme still going?

Read the LN. People who get shit on don't turn out happy-go-lucky. Sorry kids. You CAN criticize the author for making a darker main character. But his personality change is a realistic outcome to his circumstances.

I do hate characters like Kirito though, because he actually has nothing to be grumpy about.
>>
>>159051541
People shit on characters for having no agency, but now that a MC has agency they call him an edgelord. Mc is traumatized and gradually recovers, but he isn't an edgelord.
>>
>>159051541
>But his personality change is a realistic outcome to his circumstances.
I disagree. He didn't go through enough bad shit to act in the way he does. Having a false rape accusation thrown your way after getting scammed+robbed, plus some bullying was hardly a reason for him to turn into a "darker main character".
>>
>>159051948
Later on we learn that the entire story of him getting shat on was all because he got summoned to a kingdom that coincidentally hates the Shield Hero.

>>
>>159051948
>>159052003
Also one of the heroes from another world got it harder depending on your views on it
>>
Oh right there was also his personality to take into account that allowed him to be burned that hard. While anyone else on his shoes wold have reacted differently, it's his inherent "nice guy" attitude that allowed him to take everything that's happened to him that way.

That aint a satisfactory explanation either though, but it's something.

What is it about characters holding grudges that make you uncomfortable? So one person didn't. I don't see your point at all.
>>
>>159053046
I don't know why people call it edgy when the only edgy thing in it is the grumpy MC and the bitch princess.
Aside from that there is barely any death, brutality or cruelty. The villains are either generic or just retarded, there are like two deaths that you can give a fuck about and things start going pretty well for Naofumi once the Pope things ends.
It only gets really edgy when Tact shows up and that's like a bajillion chapters in so there is no way the anime will ever reach it. It also gets kind of boring when it's nothing but Naofumi doing random shit in his village. And both things might be meaningless considering the LN apparently went a completely different way.

If you think Shield Hero is bad in terms of "edge" you need to read more isekai. Shit like Redo of Healer makes Shield look tame in comparison.

For example, at least Shield never lets himself get drugged and raped so he has a valid casus belli to take revenge on everyone that has wronged him. Shield is more like a grumpy, miserly jew compared to revenge-porn like Redo's MC.

Yes, so? Is a man not allowed to hate a woman for whatever reason no matter what?

And it's not like he hates womankind. Both his followers Firo and Raphtalia who are female are stronger than him.

>>159055921

He really isn't that bad. He kept operating under a moral code during his edgelord phase even under duress. His animosity towards the princess was fueled by the fact that she never stopped being a bitch towards everyone. Mind you he even forgave the king of all people, but that woman was written in order to be hated and god did the author succeed.

But compared to true edgelords like the unpologetic rapists of Re:Monster and Maou no Hajimekata or the psychotic murderer of Nidome no Yuusha among many other examples, Shieldbro is fairly heroic.

You really needed to wait until they discover the Curse series weapons's curses have a pretty large impact in the hero who recieves it, so the Wrath cursed shield made a big number in Naofumi but it's cured in a way, he stills has that tasteful disdain for everyone to the end but he does get a better personality.

Wrath series does enormous self-damage with it's blood sacrifice skill. And if you survive it, you're hit with a 30% reduction on all stats, except defense for naofumi.

Gluttony series high-ranked skills take levels and EXP as payment, and inhibit EXP gain.

Greed series use property as payment, lower drop quality and any money or high-level gear you use rusts away into dust.

Lust and Envy didn't affect motoyasu so much since he was already broken.

Pride at it's highest leaves you with the emotional depth of a potato. And also stops SP gain, which is a problem for heroes like itsuki who use SP for regular attacks.

No mention of Sloth but it's assumed itsuki had it or something.

Didn't that one also made Naofumi lose the taste and have general bad humour and lose of empathy as an extra?

A bit, but I hated his whole high energy attitude from the beginning. He showed his physical capabilities when he managed to defend against Elsa which I even thought was cool but then he turned into a typical, whiny, plot armor wearing MC, like when Roswaal coincidentally arrived on time to save him

I never understood why slimes are supposed to be considered the weakest mobs. I know DQ did it so it basically became fact, but to me it doesn't make much sense.

Sure, slimes are probably as slow as slugs and about as smart, but considering physical attacks should hardly work on them, if at all, it makes no sense for them to be considered the weakest trash mob unless magic attacks are common enough. But magic isn't usually that common either, so they probably aren't immune/resistant to phys attacks like dnd slimes tend to be, or metal slimes in DQ.

Raphtalia is sort of holding him back. At this point he still treats her like a daughter and doesn't want to betray the expectations she has of him. She's the reason why he didn't go trigger happy psycho levels of edgy.

No one want to see their family members dead and the same goes for the queen, besides a barking dog never bites that's why she thought about giving them a chance to fix their attitude and learn from their mistakes in hope for them to be a supporting force for the heroes in future and therefore the small punishment, and that's exactly what Trash did after his wife's death.
And as for Bitch second offense, the queen wasn't dumb to not understand that there was no helping with her daughter which was why she had to hand down the death penalty on her, aka raped by the pig king.

Thanks man couldn't find it anywhere else. wew that VA really doesn't fit Roxy

>>159096319
Hopefully they go full on iron chef or something.
>>
>>159096419
Agreed, her voice should've been a bit deeper, she sounds a bit too cheery, but that could just be her 12 year old body
>>
>>159095812
Didn't the Overlord drama CDs also come with the volumes? I think its a standard practice or something.
>>
>>159096486
Yea always imagined her voice to be a little more deep and well, a little more composed even if when she's being nervous kinda similar to a Kuudere.
>>
>>159096551
Maybe, my first drama CD purchase was Yandere Kanojo and it was a standalone so I thought that was the norm

>>159096598
It should've been deeper but it makes sense for her to be panicky, well I mainly listened to the part where she sees Rudy again since that parts always hilarious
>>
>>159096622
Oh yea the vomiting part always gets me.
But Roxy's POV I remember was even better when she asks him why he vomited after seeing her or was it the smell after all? And Rudi starts making excuses explaining how the sadness of being forgotten by her and the happiness of seeing her intertwined inside him etc.
>>
>>159096941
So what was the real reason he vomited?
>>
>>159096941
Indeed, Roxy is truly the best waifu, followed by Seven Star

>>
>>159097838
Yeah the whole ending period was sketchy, both in the story and while it was being published. Apparently the author wanted to end it with Raphtalia and Naofumi staying in his world happily ever after but the fans complained so much that he had to extend it into something he must have literally pulled out of his ass.

As long as he changes that completely TnY could be tied for my favorite LN right next to Mushoku Tensei
>>
>>159098031
We'll see how it goes then
>>
>>159098031
i'm not so sure about the "happily ever after" thing because they would still remember their friends and everyone they cared about in that world is fucking dead. Except the weapon holders that is, probably whisked away to their own worlds and such.
>>
>>159099930
Plenty of stories end in a similar way, though F/SN UBW, Madoka Magica anime, and Gurren Lagann are all I can think of atm
>>
>>159100045
Dunno about Gurren Lagann, but FSN and Madoka Magica didn't have endings where everyone died/world got destroyed.
>>
>>159100045
i guess they would mourn their loss of their friends but still have each other and then try to move on. While atlas is watching them fuck through the shield which was inconspicuously transformed as an amulet or accessory.
>>
As someone who has read both, Re: Monster is more entertaining than Shield Hero, especially after Shield Hero jumps the shark later on in the web novel.
At least the goblin fucks his harem. No contrived reason for Japanese male voluntary celibacy there.
>>
>>159100116
A/several worlds/timelines got destroyed by Madoka's curse when she wished to become a goddess, and the world almost got destroyed by the Holy Grail in both F/SN and F/Z, hence the use of the word 'similar'
>>
>>159100189
The whole rape charge kinda put a damper on any and all sexual relationships with women. The only time he starts thinking sexually again is when he loses all his anger and and later on after Atlas dies.
>>
>>159100206
>And the world almost got destroyed by the Holy Grail in both F/SN and F/Z, hence the use of the word 'similar'
i don't think ALMOST destroyed is similar to destroyed.
>>
>>159100206
Fairly sure there's tons of other series where "world almost get destroyed".

Also no, several timelines didn't get destroyed because of Madoka's wish, we have no actual idea what happened to past timelines after Homura jumps to a new one. For all we know, they could still be continued on and got past the crisis with other magical girls after Homura jumped.
>>
>>159100269
If he has such a problem with women, why does he have a harem then?
Again, contrived bullshit.
>>
>>159100303
Actually, his harem mostly consists of little girls, most of which have been treated horribly or are orphans. He only really distrusts older women.
>>
>>159100269
>is when he loses all his anger and later on after Atlas dies.
When he gets his anger SUCC-ed out by the wrath dragon form of gaelion, specifically.

Sadina sat him down and told him to snap out of it when the tragedy happened so he wouldn't hurt anyone in the process. After cooling off a bit, he wanted to respond to everyone that held feelings for him, but only after the waves stopped. Since you know, those are a thing. And at least he stopped the ban on love since that was a stupid idea.

He has at least 3 wives + lots of children in the other world if we go by the epilogue.
>>
>>159100303
Because despite being a grumpy jaded guy, he's still a hero and ends up saving quite a few lives. Many of these people are girls. Though he pretty much family zoned all of them at first. They had to work hard to get out of it. Some of them never did.
>>
>>159100346
At least those that aren't his slaves. Though in the LN he starts to open up more than in the WN but like he said in vol 8, he hasn't had enough positive experiences to take a leap of faith to consider most people friends.
>>
>>159100346
Forgot to add too, that they are almost all basically monster/beast girls, so he doesn't normally see them as women.
>>
>>159100346
Raphtalia grows up and also matures when she did and he still ignores her, so that's not an argument.
I can't remember exactly how long it's been, but a few months isn't enough to daughter zone a cute girl who isn't even genetically related to you. The Westermark effect requires growing up with the person and even then it's not foolproof.

And the fact the ONE guy who joins his party ( Tiger lolis brother ) hates him doesn't help your argument.

Shield Hero is a generic beta MC with a slight twist. Instead of everyone falling in love with him immediately, only his harem does. It's shit.
>>
>>159100427
Oh yeah forgot about the slave pact thing.

Yeah also he trusts those girls since they basically are under his mercy if he ever feels like it and I think they cant lie to him.
>>
>>159100414
It was hliarious when the queen said melty was already breedable even at a young age. Even more when she accidentally proposed to naofumi by naming him an archduke, which bound him by law to marry her.
>>
>>159100477
They are incapable of lying due to the slave effect if naofumi enables that option. since you know, lying activates the curse, which hurts them.
>>
>>159100270
I meant the part about friends and allies being killed and the MC and his waifu living happily ever after despite their deaths

>>159100298
Homura didn't jump to a new timeline, though we don't know what happened, it could be similar to Okabe's time leap machine, and yes the world did get destroyed as was witnessed by Homura and confirmed by Kyuubei, the super intelligent alien life form
>>
>>159100473
see
>>159100477

also as the other said, its only the girls he actually saved like him, and even then there's still some who don't love him that way(like that girl he helped from Itsuki). a lot of the other girls also still hate/distrust him based on the rumors, even though he has already basically proven to be a hero several times.
>>
>>159100540
>MC and his waifu living happily ever after despite their deaths
Only one that doesn't match that is F/Z.
>>
>>159100569
Literally doesn't even matter. At the end of the day Shield Hero fucked up
>I hate people, women especially
>End up with harem anyways
Keep defending your contradictory harem though, I'm sure those contrived excuses created just so the harem can exist despite the jaded man premise will work out.
>>
>>159100473
>Raphtalia grows up and also matures when she did and he still ignores her, so that's not an argument.
You do remember he was still thinking she was a little girl even when the blacksmith uncle was trying to point out that she old right?
Man had tunnel vision. Even after his eyes saw her as more grown up after the duel with Spear, He still treated her more like a daughter despite all attempts otherwise. To the point where Spear called him a dense motherfucker other it. Shield was legit damaged.


>And the fact the ONE guy who joins his party ( Tiger lolis brother ) hates him doesn't help your argument.
That guy was just a massive sis-con. He was jelly. And despite his rage he still respected Shield.
>>
>>159037967
It will flop, their's already a bunch of good isekai that aired already and it will be underwhelming.

Hence the use of the word 'similar' and the exclusion of the word 'very' since, again, both allies and friends died, though admittedly the MC didn't live happily ever after and ended up a broken mess along with everyone else

>>
>>159100614
Are you retarded? You do know that in real life there are still girls who like assholes and the like?

Just cause he doesn't like them doesn't mean they can't like him in return. And if you're wondering why he lets them hang around, its cause he needs them as his combat force since he literally has no offence until much later on. So the girls are his combat force.

Also its not just girls on his side btw, there's a group of young boys training to be soldiers who he ends up allying for a crisis and they also trust him as they saw his good deeds.

He still treats them properly so that they are healthy you know? He is literally dependent on them to function, otherwise he can barely even defeat level 1 monsters.
Better way to say is that the slave contract is just his only way to ensure he wont be betrayed.
>>
>>159100816
>Really, you sound like your hating on harem just for the sake of it being a harem.
Yes. This series didn't need to be a harem but did it anyways.
If the story is a harem and it being a harem isn't the fucking point, then it's a shit story.
>>
>>159100844
That's a fucking stupid reason you know? Having a certain element be part of the story even if its not the main focus makes it a bad thing?

You could also say a story doesn't need to be ecchi but it still has ecchi content, How about a story that has some romance? Or how about a story mainly about romance but still has action? Or a mecha series that also has fantasy?
>>
>>159100907
Romance is normal.
Having a harem is not, is is usually not developed nearly as much as a romance.

So really your problem is probably just Isekai in general rather than harem.
>>
>>159101059
No it's harem, I hate harem genre as well but usually with those the harem is the entire point, not something thoughtlessly tacked on because that's just what you do in an isekai.
>>
>>159101080
I dunno if you have even tried to read but you should know that Shield doesn't get a harem until much later? Assuming the anime adaptation is just 12 episodes, the anime wont even get to the point where he gets the minimum of 3 girls for his harem.
>>
>>159101080
To play doubles advocate here, I think most isekai authors want to introduce new characters, but they only want to introduce females because they're otaku. And because their MC is super sugoii awesome, these female characters are helpless before his manly wiles.
>>
>>159101176
Oh yeah I should also mention that, his harem only really starts to form after the false accusations of him are cleared up which leads him to becoming slightly less hostile and hateful.

>>159101428

>>159051541
I don't really want happy-go-lucky, I just feel like when people actually start realising he's not a bad guy and apologising and stuff that maybe he should lighten up a bit every now and then once things start getting better. But it seems like every time somebody realises "maybe he's not a bad guy after all" something really fucking bad happens and throws him into the pits of despair again, but this time with his newfound allies.

If it could have just had a bonding moment with the other heroes it would have been nice. But I stopped somewhere after Raphtalia's backstory mansion, and the most recent chapter I saw (but missed the inbetween) had the church pull out a "stronger than heroes" superweapon, and mentioned that bow and sword hero were already dead and shield and spear were all that's left while trying to kill them both.

I agree to an extent. The MC should at least persue romance with all the girls in his harem that ends with at least first base with all of them and further with the some of them.

Sick of this shit where the girls just all have a crush on him and nothing comes out of it. What the fuck's the point?

That's why I love Mushoku Tensei and will shill it to high heaven. Rudy actively tries to make moves on his entire harem
>>
>>159105180
And most harems that aren't isekai actually fuck the girls am I right?

Most of the stories that actually have the MC fuck all the girls turn to shit compared to ones who only do it to one girl or none at all.

The difference is that the point of genre harem is the girls, not plot or the main character.
In isekai harem is included for no reason other than waifubait to bait readers.

Why not just go out to say you dislike the harem genre itself? Also there's no purely "harem" genre btw, it just mean its a SoL harem. Most harems have its share of girls that aren't important and just thrown in for the variety/waifuing, and romance in harems tend to be weaker than ones where there's only 1 love interest.

So your average isekai?
>>
>>159127292
I dunno how narrow you read but most isekai arent edge fests you know?

besides shield and dungeon seeker, there's not really any other isekai who have an edgy MC. most others just have your "average normal" MC who gets lucky on some broken ability or has creativity to abuse it which leads him to being strong and popular early in the story.

If you only consider Shield and Dungeon Seeker as edgy you really haven't read enough isekai. Shield is pretty tame compared to truly edgy isekai.

Nidome no Yuusha

Those were just off the top of my head, and both are more edgy than Shield by far. There are easily tons more, isekai is wish-fulfillment after all and revenge/vengeance/other edgy themes are quite common.

That's a funny way to spell Mushoku Tensei
>>
>>159135021
Eh.
Rudy was still reasonably challenged all throughout Mushoku Tensei. He did grow abnormally strong in just Volume 1, but it leveled out, and he does still train for situations all his life, while still experiencing extremely powerful enemies that often required other people's assistance.
>>
People are actually saying that Shield Hero is edgy? The only edgy part is when Bitch got mutilated by the Pig King
>>
>>159120692
It won't be.
>>
>>159135021
Rudy was only OP for a kid, otherwise he was just the level of your average adventure and would get rekt by seasoned ones. He actually nearly got killed once in vol 2 thinking he was hot shit when the enemy played smart.

Also by the end of the story, Rudy was nowhere near being the strongest/powerful being.
>>
>>159135021
Rudy was a wimp compared to the average isekai MC. He didn't cultivate to immortality or effortlessly create railguns, Rudy actually worked for his gains. And even with his otherworld knowledge helping him he still wasn't overpowered. He might've been in the top ten of his world but that's a far cry from your average retard who typically becomes the strongest all too quickly.

What is it with people who unironically defend Arifureta? Has it become the SAO of isekai?
>>
>>159037967
It's going to be great considering the anime is not going to cover the entire plot, and the best part of the novel is the first first third anyways.
>>
>>159134730
>cute girls lusting for cocks
But how does that cause people to drop it. Does it not start out as harem shit or something? Is it that far of a departure from its premise?
>>
>>159136214

People drop it because it becomes a collectathon for the writer to masturbate to, if you enjoy people masturbating on your face while shouting "LOOK HOW GREAT I AM" then by all means.

Who would win if naofumi and rudeus fought each other?

>>159135914
Kill yourself.
>>
>>159137255
Depends. If we are talking about full power Naofumi vs full power Rudy, then probably Rudy. He's smart enough to eventually realize how powerful the shield is and then try to manipulate the environment to bypass Naofumi's strengths.

A 1vs1 would probably go to Rudy, but if Naofumi had his slaves it would probably go to Naofumi.
>>
>>159137370
1V1 only.
>>
>>159137398
Methinks Naofumi is just too defensive to win against Rudy. Without his slaves he would be forced into using his cursed shields to try to OHKO Rudy and that is pretty unlikely. It could happen though.
>>
>>159137370
I think both would fight to a stalemate. Rudeus cant hope to harm naofumi in any significant way, and for all the power naofumi has, he cant harm rudy either or at least, the options he has(counter effects, iron maiden, blood sacrifice, spirit turtle energy ray, etc) cannot be reliably used.
>>
>>159137398
Rudy probably, Naofumi has very tough defenses but even he wouldn't be completely immune to Rudy's full power rock bullet. He might shrug it it off a bit but if its constantly whittling away at his defenses then Rudy wins in the long run. If Rudy has the Magic Armor Mk. 1 or Mk. 0 then its in the bag
>>
>>159138286
>>159137370

>Not agaisnt rock bullet.
yes he would, Naofomi at his peak can tank anything, and thats without the God powers he gained later on.

The thing would become an endless match cause Naofumi would lack any attacks to hurt Rud and viceversa.

good night guys
>>
>>159139614
unless he somehow has some sort of magic or technique ala hengen musou this will be a stalemate. Though naofumi can defend himself well against qi/ki attacks
>>
>>159139614
Are you forgetting that Rudy specializes in environmental control? If he could trap Naofumi's feet in deep mud or quicksand he wouldn't be able to properly defend himself. Naofumi's shields don't exactly cover his entire body and you can't make a shieldwall by yourself.

Yes, I know about Shield Prison and his other shield abilities, but those all have cooldown periods and they don't last long enough to permanently tank damage.
>>
>>159139614
Rudy's rock bullet could penetrate Badigadi's touki and completely blow his body apart, and he managed to blow off his arms when he was in the fighting god armor. Naofumi has monstrous defense but I'd guess that it falls short of Badigadi at his strongest. Might be better to think of how Badigadi would fare against Houou's death explosion and compare it to Naofumi
>>
>>159139815
not that anon but how tough is he?
>>
>>159139840
Badigadi? While wearing the fighting god armor he's the 3rd strongest in the world, 1st is the Technique God and 2nd is the Dragon God
>>
So what about Rudy's fire-nuke? How does Naofumi stand against that sort of attack that would basically engulf his body whole, not just where his shield is?
>>
>>159139899
The shield generates a barrier that protects his whole body. But is much more effective by blocking stuff with the shield itself.
>>
>>159139899
He'd probably be completely immune, Naofumi's defense is monstrous, his weakness would be penetrating attacks or that thing that hurts more the stronger the defense is
>>
>>159139899
Naofumi can just fire the nuke back at Rudy using his Musou Tengen training.
>>
>>159139951
Not fire. I meant reflect
>>
>>159139951
Oh yeah that's a thing too. Atlas used his mouso hengen/tengen whatever to collect and deflect the death explosion away from naofumi. though you know how it ended.
>>
>>159139915
>>159139946
>>159139951
Rudy's main element is basically Earth and Water, so what about burying/drowning Naofumi underground and depriving him of air? Or does one of Naofumi's abilities allow him to ignore a lack of oxygen?
>>
>>159139769
Naofumi doesn't need a shield, he is a shield.
>>
>>159139993
Actually that would probably work, he might be able to avoid it for a while with his skills but eventually he'd run out of mana. One slip and he'll be sucked into the earth, assuming Rudy can make something equivalent to quicksand
>>
>>159139993
He's got his bubble shield that gives him extra air time. Though if he can he'd be able to dig his way out with his own strength(different from attack). Or just portal out.
>>
>>159139993
He was okay in outer space-ish environment.
>>
>>159140043
He had to wear the kigurimo or whatever to go to the underwater dragon hourglass so he's susceptible to drowning
>>
>>159140032
IF it's quicksand he should be able to cancel it out with energy or a spell. should we assume that he has no "return ground to normal" spell here?
>>
>>159140058
It was before he became immortal god slayer.
>>
>>159140083
He doesn't have anything like that afaik, he has some Hengen Musou ability but that's mainly for attacks and not for environmental dangers magical or not. The main weakness is that Naofumi is limited to the skills in the system of the world, whereas Rudy's world has no system and anything is possible. He turned a typical emperor ranked spell (lightning) into his own version that is very deadly.

Honestly I'd love to see a fight between Rudy and his magic armor against Naofumi's team including Rishia, Eclair, and maybe some of the slaves like Windia
>>
>Badigadi couldnt take it,
He couldnt tank a nuke either, Naofumi can.
>He can drown him.
Naofumi can literally step on air thanks to his air shields.

Rudy cant hurt Nao and Nao cant hurt Rudy, and in the end Nao would just buy Rinia from Rudy, get some drinks and call it a day.
>>
>>159140137
That probably won't be anon, the author made that ending because of the torrent of complaints against his original ending
>>
>>159140191
He has way less mana than Rudy, in the end it'd be a battle of attrition
>>
>>159140205
Not sure it makes much of a difference considering naofumi can unlock shields that directly increase his mana reserves and affect his mana regeneration. And there's accessories that do so too, like the starfire oracle bracelet that he made for Therese. Not to mention he can make mana potions on-the-fly and stuff assuming that's allowed.
>>
>>159140205
It doesnt matter, Rudy wont ever damage Nao enough that Naos natural regen wont recover and Nao has no attack skills that can hurt more than a fly.

Its a Stalemate
>>
>>159140256
Naofumi can't be completely immune to Rudy's attacks, he made it into the seven world powers. With his abundance in magic he cuould, ah wait Naofumi's HP probably regenerates wicked fast too. Well what I meant by attrition is that he can drown Naofumi in a swamp or quicksand

>>159140250
Crafting takes time, he might be able to make it quickly but maybe not quick enough, not to mention the cool down time and the fact that Rudy could use wind magic to push Naofumi off his platform and into the swamp/quicksand
>>
>>159140193
He will probably reach the same power level in LN too, because Yusagi described it as hard mode.
>>
>>159140329
you dont get it do you?
Nao has tanked world ending monsters, theres literally nothing Rudeous or even Orsted could do to harm him when Nao is at his peak.
>>
>>159140329
Wouldnt he be able to rope himself out if theres something nearby? Perhaps snag rudeus and take him along for the ride.

Also have i mentioned portaling out?
>>
>>159140380
Other than well, drowning him in a bathtub. For hours.
>>
>>159140409
>He drowns him
Jumps out with air shield.
Portals out
Makes a bubble of air

Take your pick.
>>
>>159140435
I mean, if they grab him. It would be pretty hilarious though.
>>
>>159140380
Said world endings almost killed him, the only reason he survived was because his teammates killed the Spirit Tortoise, and he legit almost died against Houou if it wasn't for Atlas' sacrifice

>>159140385
Then Rudy would win by default, as for the rope thing again there's a cooldown, and the rope isn't defensive like Naofumi is, a little fireball or a wind blade and its gone

>>159140435
Air shield has a cooldown time
Portal would equal admission of defeat
Cooldown time again, and maybe it works in water but probably not earth
>>
>>159140469
He has at least two shields with the rope function. But i guess you're right
>>
>>159140469
since you obviously want to masturbate to power battles and keep wanting to fuck around, ill end your little BS right now.

Rudy doesnt have super speed.
Nao does he probably give Eris reaction times a run for her money.

Nao avoids any fucking thing rudy has and sticks a balloon monster on his head.

Duel over.
>>
>>159140491
Don't get me wrong, I love both Rudy and Naofumi for different reason but equally, but since Naofumi can't attack he wouldn't win. If he had at least Raphtalia then he would probably win against Rudy, maybe, it'd have to be a blitz
>>
>>159140469
>Spirit Tortoise
>Houou
>world endings
You are cute.
You should've at least mentioned Ultra Bitch
>>
>>159140469
Pretty sure the the rope or whatever coily thingy coming out of the shield is as strong as the shield itself. The chimera viper shield had the hook special effect and it used one of the sculpted snakes on the shield to nab stuff
>>
>>159140525
I know. At the very best anyone can hope for is a draw/stalemate considering both people's strengths. I havent read MT but i should give you the benefit of the doubt since you've read both
>>
>>159140522
Super speed? Do you mean like running speed or reaction time? Rudy has the sonic wind he uses to dash, and he can glide with the earth lance (albeit badly)

>>159140528
Again, might not be canon. Afaik there's no mention of ultra bitch in the newest volumes, however the 4 animals do exist

>>159140546
I'm curious about that, but if Rudy shot a powerful rock bullet at whatever he was holding on to it wouldn't matter whether it was strong or not

>>159140579
Reread Mushoku Tensei twice now, I would reread Tate no Yuusha but I'm buying the new, canon volumes
>>
>>159140608
Prety sure he meant reaction time. In tate you can forcibly increase it with thunder magic. Though there's gotta be more safer ways to do it
>>
Well guys that was a nice thread we had today. Anime PV is coming tomorrow! Manga chapter isn't ready yet, something must be happening with the scanlators or whatever.

Have a rare terisu, and good night
>>
>>159140655
Rudy has the eye of foresight and the eye of clairvoyance, he can use 3 seconds at max so it might be tied in terms of reaction speed

>>159140710
Danke, its hard to find good artwork for non-anime stuff
>>
>>159140608
Prety sure it'll depend wether the actual shield can withstand one of them rock shooter things. I'm pretty sure the sheild itself is indestructible, but naofumi will surely feel the damage through it anyway.
>>

Nah, we already got world killers who get bonuses from some higher being. Also, Tact.
In the end there will be either Ultra Bitch or someone even more powerful. Nao also 100% won't get bad end, because editors.
