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

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.

I have lost the fucking plot.

Still working on those big kazurei illustrations, but due to some… stuff going on… It takes me to draw them a bit longer, sorry

Anyway, today I present to you my recent obsession - those four hero dorks. I don’t remember the plot much as I was reading the light novel for the last time in like 2017??? Still exited

So a huge brainrot has been festering in my head for the past week about some angsty au, because there’s not a lot of works around with them (at least that I’m aware of)… It got to a point that I’m now prepping to write my first ever fanfic with ✨da bois✨, yeah

Here are some snippets of what I’m currently thinking. You know, some basic queer/angst stuff (@_@)

Enjoy my struggles in filling out my sketchbook

I did already make a post about RotSH, but man...

I love this anime, it's in my top 3 and the protag is my fav character. Why did they ruin it so fricking much?

The series had so much potential. The 3 heroes could have become better, recognized Naofumi or even died, 3 good tropes. (Also angst. Imagine Naofumi being left alone as the Legendary Hero, and the world doesn't dare to kill him to summon new ones, because at this point killing him is 1. Impossible 2. The dumbest desicion ever. So he collects more daughters (maybe sons even) and spread them across his world to the point when The Shield Gang was waaay better than the 4 Heroes. Man I need to write this).

Naofumi could continue to explore his and other worlds, gaining xp and knowledge, being known as a God across dimensions.

L'arc's world troupe. Their cooperation, Kizuna's and Naofumi's research. Glass's help. Man that was good.

But nooooo, they added like 30 background characters who "play a big role" (I mean really? The tiger girl being Naofumi's "shiled"? Girl he's THE SHIELD HERO. You can't possibly level with him or the shield, go learn archery or something). Ost dying in a few episodes, the Pierro girl....

The other heroes became even more shallow. Motoyase lost his mind, Ren unlocked the Cursed Series after realising after MONTHS that this world is not a game. That troupe could've been way better.

The King's flashbacks and his obsession with the tiger girl.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Not to mention the ENORMOUS amount of plot twists. A mistical rogue? Ren! A mistical archer-gladiator? Itsuki! Puff! RAPHTALIA IS A FUCKING PRINCESS OF SHE WAS WANTCHED THIS WHOLE TIME.

why

Naofumi really needs to fuck the stupid out of Motoyasu except it's going to be an incredibly long and arduous journey so he'll need to get started now.

Shield Hero Shenanigans

Motoyasu: I'm not sure how you can be such an asshole!

Naofumi: I'm not sure how you have your foot in your mouth, head in your ass, and nose in my business, yet here we are. You fucking wizard.

[yukitonz]

Let's be honest here- once Naofumi got his name cleared and Motoyasu stopped being in so much denial about the truth- Naofumi became his personal therapist. Aka it means the 'yep. Oh, that's sad. Uh-huh' from Naofumi, but he gets free food as his payment. Motoyasu always just talks about how he feels he's never good enough, always messes up and feels like he wears a mask (aka deep ass shit) and Naofumi's just like 'DAMN this bread GOOD. Anyway, yeah continue Motoyasu.' I think it is their entire dynamic. (Then they end up together. Naofumi actually starts listening. But he don't give a shit in the beginning of it all. He just wants BREAD.)

Anyway have a good day 😎👍

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.

Would anyone be interested in a rewriting of the Shield Hero where Naofumi is an immortal guy who has lived for millennia (think a mix of Zhongli and Alhaitham from Genshin)?

I've been entertaining the idea for quite a while in my head but I'd like to know the thoughts of others on the matter as well, which is why I'm sharing the idea.

I've been thinking that it would be really interesting to do a re-write/fix-up of the anime/manga/light novel where there's:

No underlining pedophilia because that's just disgusting and creepy

Naofumi acts a lot like a miserable mentor figure who just wishes for the sweet embrace of death

The other heroes actually develop and their beliefs and morals are challenged

MOTOYASU IS NOT A CREEPY GUY LUSTING OVER A MONSTER CHILD

Myne and The King face actual consequences for their actions appropriate for the setting and time period

It's more of a dark fantasy/ subversion of the isekai trope (how it was supposed to be from the start in my opinion)

Explores such things as growing too fast and becoming a child soldier, immortality and how it affects someone, keeping promises to the dead, accepting your death as well as obsessing over the idea of death and similar topics

If anyone has any questions/suggestions feel free to ask me!
