The title misled me to think the story is about a different manga. Tank character in JRPG is the team member who take on all enemy hits. The manga I read is about a sword fighter whose ability is to attract and repel all enemy attacks. So, his party members can safely deliver minor damages to strong monsters. This story has the protagonist who use shield to damage opponents.

Rud is another "supporting character" gets kicked out from the hero's party. He still has to worry about the expense of his sister's treatment. On his mission, and his way home, he encounters Luna. Luna turns out to be a capable fighter. She becomes Rud's new fellow. She also acts like Deckard Cain; she is able to assess Rud's ability. Rud has better understanding to his skill tree.

I mean... the hero acts like a scumbag pervert in front of his party and everyone in the guild and nobody says anything?, not only that, the twins that know he is good and the girl that is in love with him, still stay with the hero?, there has to be a reaaaaally good reason for that since not demon king has been mentioned.
I like the kicked out of the hero party genre but there are better ways to do it. Last edited by grecefar; 2024-01-07 at 12:19. |

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure why those girls stuck with the hero when they clearly weren't happy with it. I'd hope in the original perhaps he told them to do so due to his overall personal agreement with the "Hero's" sentiments. Otherwise some justification would have to be given for why the characters feel that they have to stay with the "Hero" despite disagreeing with him and I imagine disapproving of his perverse nature. Well, at least the OP seems to suggest that they'll come to his side sooner or later.
In any case, the one thing I'm not fond of is his "Life Conversion" skill. I'm not sure, but it kind of sounds like it can/will be used to make him into a powerful offensive character. Honestly, that's one of the things I dislike the most in all these expulsion series: the hero always starts out as either a tank or a support member, is rejected at least in part because he "doesn't do any/enough damage", and then very shortly after parting ways discovers he actually CAN do tons of damage, or otherwise easily attains the means to do so. Seriously, don't any authors ever think that making a guy rejected for his lack of DPS into an offensive Ace might detract from the story? I'm still waiting for a story where the expelled hero continues adventuring in a pure support role and manages to prove his worth WITHOUT having to gain what he was supposedly "lacking". |

As another kicked out by the party anime, the party's reputation is most likely built by the "shield hero". The tank's friends sympathizes him, but they are reluctant to leave this "Fortune 500 company". The tank has to restart his adventurer career from ground zero.

This was pretty nice. Since I prefer tanking as my playstyle in World of Warcraft (got four Paladin tanks, which I play pretty casually. ), this appeals to me more than it would to others. Gets two more episodes for the moment.

Nonetheless, the rest of the episode was okay. Lesser animation here, but the two protagonists are decent enough to continue watching, and I'm interested to see how Rud will live his life in the village. Also hoping that when he does fight, he just stays completely a tank, though it'd feel like treading similar ground as Shield Hero if Luna does all the fighting. On a small note, why name the guy Rud? I mean, d*m, why did it just have to be similar in name to a certain other char from another anime with the same premise =01?

Seems OK enough. I give any isekai a chance, I like them. Even if many are garbage, I still watch them. It's weird though that his unknown skills were resolved in ep 1. I'd have thought it would be strung out a little more.
lol I didn't even catch that. That's pretty funny. Maybe this writer is a fan of the other writer |

On the matter of his name, while it's true here, the name doesn't sound that much similar in Japanese. |
