About this listen

Naofumi Iwatani, an uncharismatic otaku who spends his days on games and manga, suddenly finds himself summoned to a parallel universe! He discovers he is one of four heroes equipped with legendary weapons and tasked with saving the world from its prophesied destruction. As the Shield Hero, the weakest of the heroes, all is not as it seems. Naofumi is soon alone, penniless, and betrayed. With no one to turn to, and nowhere to run, he is left with only his shield. Now, Naofumi must rise to become the legendary Shield Hero and save the world!

Best so far

The story has progressed very well, I can’t wait to read on. It seems that the narrator is going to be different for the next book, I hope this does not change the performance.

Kurt has really put in a lot of effort to improve.

listening to this light novel is very interesting because I'm hearing the growth of two protagonists both the voice actor and Naofumi.

Nice

Liked it. It’s so much easier to understand than reading the book when they don’t often identify the speaker. The last bonus story cracks me up. My favorite. Good job.

Confronting the Accusers' Injustices

This has been awesome performance by Kurt Kanazawa of how this arc goes down in this story. Tensions are running high, especially when threatened by Firotia to reconcile with Motoyasu, Itsuki, and Ren differences or killed by her and replaced by new summoned heroes. Things are not going as planned, especially when Naofumi and party faced Motoyasu and that physco Myne did not help the situation.

Motoyasu is convinced beyond unreasonable that Naofumi is murder of Ren and Itsuki, who were investigating the Church of Three Heroes. Naofumi does not have patience to deal with this moron if he got to beat Motoyasu to submission to see reason, then so be it. Motoyasu and his party will be fought back against Naofumi while Raphtalia, Filo, and Melty got Naofumi's back.

In this amidst of chaos, there was danger that Filo had to knock Motoyasu and his party to use his Shield of Rage to protect everyone from this aerial strike. Reverberation from that shook Naofumi very core of how great the pressure and heat intensity. Once it had died down, nothing but massive crater wasteland in its wake. The high priest was holding a replica four holy weapons.

Seeing this all this coming to ahead Naofumi is about face his greatest enemy the Pope of Three Heroes Church.The pope accuse all them false heroes and called Naofumi a demon. This moment is when Naofumi will have his justice against this evil man and will not be easy to defeat. This will be Naofumi way to clear his name and face his accusers' lies.

Awesomeness

I soared through from vol.1 to this volume and volume.4 resonated with my current situation in regards to toxic family members, so when

**************SPOILERS ALERT *********
finally the disgusting bitch and trash received their deserved punishments, I was totally thrilled!

I know the same penalty would never befall on my toxic family members, still reading this has made me smile and so want to high five the shield hero! Way to go man!

A great continuation to a great story

Although I am not a huge fan of vengeance these days I still love the story and mr Kanazawa is still amazing with his narration of this story.
