<p>This is a story about Naofumi Iwatani, a 20-year-old Japanese guy who, after finding a mysterious book in a library, gets summoned to another world to fight off a recurring phenomenon called "The Waves of Calamity", and finds himself, along with three others, equipped with one weapon each, Naofumi's "weapon" being a shield.</p> <p>After being summoned to another world to fight, how will this other world receive them? And of course, how will Naofumi fight when he can only defend?</p> <p>This is a story based on Aneko Yusagi's "The Rising of the Shield Hero" Light Novel. This story came to be after I began getting increasingly bored of the original series since it left its initial premise after volume 5 of the Light Novel.</p> <p>This also aims to fix a lot of personal gripes with the original series post-volume 4, mostly to do with power levels, pacing and scale of later conflicts.</p> <p>So, if you liked the original premise for this story and wanted to see something more grounded compared to the later parts of the story, then this is definitely for you!</p>
