“That was awesome! I guess that’s why they call you the Shield Hero, eh Kiddo?” L’Arc grunted next to me while he fought another ganesha. “Awesome? I’m the Shield Hero. If I couldn’t block an attack like that, what good would I be?” I didn’t feel like I had to explain myself to him, but it was true. Since I came to that new world, my main role in battle was to use my high defense rating to block the attacks of enemies. I guess I was sort of an exception. I should mention that I was currently in yet another world, one that lay on the other side of the dimensional rifts that accompanied the waves of destruction. “Don’t let your guard down! Pay attention, will you, Boy?” “Hey Kiddo, you better stop calling me ‘Boy’!” “If you keep calling me ‘Kiddo,’ I’m going to keep calling you ‘Boy’!” Just then I got an even better idea, based on what I knew about his background. “Maybe I should call you ‘Nobunaga’ instead?” “Hey! How did you know that Kizuna used to call me that ?! ” I guess it fit pretty well. I’d have to remember to compliment Kizuna on her nicknaming skills. [...] “L’Arc, you understand Mr. Naofumi so well!” “I know all sorts of people, so right from the get-go I could tell that he wasn’t a bad guy.” “I’m the worst kind of guy!” “Oh yeah, you think you’re really tough, don’t ya?” “Shut up!” What was WITH this guy? By the way, the guy that was pretending to know all about me was L’Arc. That was short for L’Arc Berg. I still didn’t know his last name. He was an experienced adventurer in his late twenties. Generally, he was a pretty charming guy. He knew how to get people on his side. Sometimes he was a little childish, but that was probably just part of his charm. When we first met he was wearing a set of light armor, but when we met up again, in this new world, he was dressed—I don’t know why—like a member of the Shinsengumi. The style suited him, but I wondered which one was his usual look. After all, Glass wore a kimono, and Kizuna wore a haori over a lolita style dress. He probably chose the clothes based on their effects. Maybe the Shinsengumi clothes he had picked up while sneaking around in this world were actually better than the light armor. Why did I care so much about his clothes anyway? Alright, enough of that. Moving on.

Prologue of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari Light Novel, Volume 9.

“Why” you ask, Naofumi. I will tell you. That’s what’s called attraction and that’s why. You are appreciating the view of Mr. Handsome Nice Guy in Shinsengumi clothes. That’s normal. That’s a pretty beautiful aesthetic. Also I have to stress how much they are made for each other. This first dialogue? Masterpiece. “You call me kiddo, so I will call you boy. Now we are even”. Also it looks like Naofumi isn’t older than L’Arc after all, which was completely stunning to me! I know that every piece of info in the novel is kinda lied down by Naofumi himself as he is the narrator of the story, but claiming as a narrator that L’Arc was in his late twenties vs saying in a dialogue, which was supposed to be a comeback at L’Arc’s “kiddo”, that he is older than him are two different things. Anyway, I didn’t expect L’Arc to be actually older than Naofumi. We don’t really know how many years apart they are, but less than 10 for sure, as late twenties can mean anything from 25/26 to 29.

(He really looks very Nobunagish xD Picture is from Volume 17).

No reaction to the swimsuit. My asexual headcanon holds ground!

Also Naofumi daughter-zoned Raphtalia again xD His thoughts sounded like thoughts of the practical parent xD

If you don’t like me headcanoning Naofumi Iwatani as asexual and asexually ship him with Raruk (+ Theris, because I like polyamory ships) - characters from the light novel and manga adaptation, then you probably should block me, because I won’t shut up about that in the near future. Tate no Yuusha is my new hiperfixation and I will probably spam you when the chapter 52 of the manga comes out, so... if you don’t want to see that, BLOCK ME.

[moontheoretist]

Tate no Yuusha - I am a lost cause.

I am a lost cause. Since I started watching the anime I was looking for some easy prey for my yaoist soul. I didn’t find anybody in the anime (understandably, it’s just 5 episodes), but when I looked up wiki, L’Arc (Raruk) caught my attention immediately, so now when I read manga and see his first interactions with Naofumi, my whole soul chants “kiss, kiss, kiss” without any rational reason...

Raruk x Naofumi (asexual ship)

I know who he is, but my whole soul just doesn’t care. He is cute and good at reading people. He is the best boyfriend in this whole universe. So why not?

He deserves to be smug

[moontheoretist]

Thank you. I personally see him as biromantic asexual, but he probably could be panromantic or even aromantic, but then if he was aromantic he would probably be cupioromantic, because he expressed that he would like to be in a relationship. So I am open to any version, though I like mine the best. Naofumi reminds me a lot about me in many ways on many levels :D
