What to Know For The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 3
The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 3 was first announced to be in the works way back in 2019 with a confirmation of both Season 2 and Season 3. The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 wrapped up its run last Spring, and kicked off an intriguing new arc in which Naofumi Iwatani and his party explored a whole new dimension with the intention of taking on a massive new battle to come. You can currently catch up with the first two seasons of The Rising of the Shield Hero now streaming with Crunchyroll ahead of Season 3’s premiere this October.ย
Crunchyroll teases the events of The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 as such, “Learning that other nations are enduring the Calamity Waves, Naofumi vows to fight. But before he can begin, word comes that the massive Spirit Tortoise is free. Left unchecked, this rampaging monster could destroy the world. He assembles companions Raphtalia and Filo and a few new allies, one of which reveals scary newsโthis was no accident. Someone deliberately unleashed the legendary beast!”
