Our character has to rely on his own shrewdness for most of the story, it was very interesting to read about, and as characters were introduced it felt as if the author wrote them with the intent for us to like them and it gave me a heart-warming feeling to read about Naofumi & Raphtalia's adventures.

The twist to the story in it self was that our character was 'Hero of the Shield'. I saw a perfectly fine piece of litteratur, a piece that was no masterpiece nor trash, a piece that i enjoyed to my heart's content, i saw a piece like that just go into a decline and devolve from that into literary garbage that i to this day, will stand by and say i would never have read past chapter 1. But i do hope people will give it a read anyways. It's very biased, and it feels more like a bashing rather an actual review.

Thus, that is what my translation is based off of. To start off, i would like to say i read all of the Web Novel, rather than the light novel.
