Shield Hero. I loved the initial premise of an anti-hero doing what he could to just survive in a world that was against him. His only companion a slave that he was raising almost like a surrogate daughter, the two of them against the world.
I thought it was an interesting premise. Then the tone completely shifted and it turned into a generic power fantasy isekai where basically everyone loved him. Completely lost me the second they introduced Filo or whatever her name was.
I’m in the same boat as an anime only and feel like I was taking crazy pills. All my friends watched it and loved it, but I had so many issues with it and felt like the tone and feel of the show was so far removed from the original I couldn’t bring myself to like it. Outside of maybe the last few episodes, it just overall seemed mediocre in every sense and I don’t understand what the hype was for it?
