What to Expect from The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 Episode 5
It looks like episode 5 of Shield Hero Season 2 is set up for another conflict between Naofumi and the other world’s heroes, with Ost Horai set to play a notable role.
After a rocky start, episode 4 felt like something closer to what we saw in the first season. We finally got to understand Rishia’s motivations a little more, and saw a friendship developing between her and Ost.
With episode 5 titled ‘Ost Horai’, we’ll hopefully discover more about the enigmatic character in the next episode. Also, the sudden appearance of L’Arc, Alexandrite and Glass (or not Glass?), some of the strongest characters in Shield Hero, sets the next episode up nicely.
Here’s hoping that episode 5 marks a return to Shield Hero’s best form. Watch The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 to find out what happens next!
