The Rising of the Shield Hero Promo Celebrates Season 2 Finale

By Nick Valdez

The Rising of the Shield Hero has brought the second season of its run together with the rest of the Spring 2022 anime schedule, and the series is hyping its big finale with a special new trailer highlighting how far Naofumi Iwatani has come over two seasons of the series! The second season return of the series was one of the most highly anticipated returns of the Spring overall, but things changed over the last few weeks as it got off to a rough start with fans. But the second arc of the season seemed to twist that perspective back around.

The Rising of the Shield Hero has officially ended its second season in Japan, but it's still going to be a little while longer before the English dubbed release of the season (which includes some shake ups behind the scenes due to some unfortunate circumstances) ends its run too. With Crunchyroll releasing the English dubbed finale for The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 on Wednesday, July 27 at 5:00 pm ET / 2:00 pm PT, they hyped the finale with a special trailer that you can check out below: 

If you wanted to catch up with The Rising of the Shield Hero's run so far, you can check out the first two seasons of the series now streaming with Crunchyroll. The English dub for the second season still has quite a lot of ground to cover, so there's plenty of time to catch up. A third season of the anime has been previously confirmed to be in the works, but there has yet to be any release date or window set for the next season as of this writing. 

As for what to expect from the second season before jumping in, Crunchyroll teases The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 as such, Learning that people are hurting, Naofumi vows to fight. But before he can help, word comes that the Spirit Tortoise is free. Assembling Raphtalia and Filo, they uncover scary news—this was no accident. Someone deliberately unleashed the legendary beast!"
