#iwatani naofumi

[mire022]

I just had to share my experience watching Tate no Yuusha, and afterwards reading Yari no Yuusha. I have never seen a series shift the vibe so much; It goes from portraying Naofumi (the protagonist of the series) as this bitter, cunning and powerful man (very much like an isekai protagonist) to "breedable and ultimate waifu of the series who must be protected at all costs". I have never seen such determined manga trying to portray their stallion male protagonist as this malewife, adorable 20 something precious thing. That's our job??? (The fandom)

I have receipts underneath if you are interested. No spoilers and no need to know the plot, just...look at this guy and keep in mind he is the protagonist of a somehow generic isekai shounen...

LONG POST WARNING

Please I need you to know this is not the first nor the last time people will fight in Naofumi's name. They will wage war for him (twice).

Ok maybe I am looking into it a bit too much, but I felt there was a suggestive undertone in this part. If it were a female, I would be sure to point it out as light fanservice (having a character talk about a part of their body that can have a suggestive tone)

I am, again, looking into it too much but usually this reaction is reserved for female characters in shounen (hiding their face in their hands as they blush).

These next panels were what prompted me to write this post. In the anime, the heroes of the story fall into despair at some point, and their love interest is responsible for pulling them out of it. BUT FOR MOTOYASU, IT ISN'T FILO BUT RATHER NAOFUMI WHO DOES THE JOB???

They are saying goodbye and Naofumi just had to have this "tragic heroine who will forever love their hero even if they never meet again"

Now that is a very queer thing to say, Naofumi

And this made me laugh so hard like WHERE DID THIS COME FROM???? MY GIRL YUKI SPREADING SUBMISSIVE NAOFUMI AGENDA

Also the mom of the pack alongside dad Motoyasu

In conclusion I love the fact that the spin-off decided to sexualize their 20 year old pathetic man than children. Honestly it made me laugh for a good while.

[who-jumps-for-the-beef]

In Parkour Civilization, noobs can do a one-block jump for a raw chicken to barely survive day-to-day, or they can attempt a more difficult one-block vertical jump for a piece of raw beef, which gives more saturation (energy) and allows them to attempt levelling up to the Pro Level. Does your blorbo play it safe with the chicken or risk it all for the beef? Do they succeed or fail?

The Rising of the Shield Hero Opening 3

[weepingfireflies]

[Image ID - two screenshots from The Rising of the Shield Hero focused on the protagonist Iwatani Naofumi. The left half of the screen shows someone's left shoulder and half of their chest as they walk in front of Iwatani Naofumi. The subtitles (spoken by the person in front) read, "I enjoyed when we tried to kill each other, but it feels better to be fighting on the same side, Naofumi." /End ID]

What a normal thing to say, bro

I remember a story my dad told me of when he tried to take care of raccoon babies.

IT DID NOT GO WELL

“Dad wait, I’m coming!“

Naofumi: Hold up, I need to crack my back.

Naofumi’s Back: *The most ungodly cracking known to humanity*

Motoyasu: HOLY SHIT! Did you just break your back?!

Naofumi: Nope, that's just the sounds it makes after having to constantly carry everyone through the Waves.

[mire022]

After reading Yari no Yuusha, I have to share with you all the various moments of Motoyasu being an absolute simp for Naofumi and how they actually make a cute pair in the manga

To start off with Motoyasu blushing with Naofumi calling for him

No but the way Motoyasu sees Naofumi as this wide eye, blushing man-

Overprotective "friend"

Like why are you imagining your friend riding something dude

Also checking out your bros, like the good bro you are

Motoyasu gaslighting Naofumi that he slept with a man

Naofumi as Motoyasu wife chewing him out

Ok I gotta comment on this but Motoyasu said various times that he felt Filo's scent on Naofumi but Filo hasn't even been born so I truly believe he just likes Naofumi's scent, in this essay I will-

Motoyasu likes being praised by his partner (boyfriend)

Shared custody. Please just get married

Sigh I just need to get this off my chest
