Masato Jinbo will direct Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 replacing first season director Takao Abo. He hinted at the plot during Crunchyroll Expo. Naofumi Iwatani, Raphtalia, and Filo will jointly try to save the world and unravel the secrets about Waves.

I also hope everyone looks forward to seeing the new characters that join Naofumi’s party, Rishia and Kizuna,” said Masato Jinbo. Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 might show Japanese protagonist Naofumi Iwatani and his friend growing up. He will remember everything that he has learned in childhood. According to the official trailer, the story will follow after the fight between Glass and Naofumi’s party. Naofumi will try to uncover the truth that why monster waves are trying to kill the world’s Cardinal Heroes.

The Four Cardinal Heroes are a group of ordinary men from modern-day Japan summoned to the kingdom of Melromarc to become its saviors. Melromarc is a country plagued by the Waves of Catastrophe that have repeatedly ravaged the land and brought disaster to its citizens for centuries. The four heroes are respectively bestowed a sword, spear, bow, and shield to vanquish these Waves. Naofumi Iwatani, an otaku, becomes cursed with the fate of being the “Shield Hero.” Armed with only a measly shield, Naofumi is belittled and ridiculed by his fellow heroes and the kingdom’s people due to his weak offensive capabilities and lackluster personality. When the heroes are provided with resources and comrades to train with, Naofumi sets out with the only person willing to train alongside him, Malty Melromarc. He is soon betrayed by her, however, and becomes falsely accused of taking advantage of her. Naofumi then becomes heavily discriminated against and hated by the people of Melromarc for something he didn’t do. With a raging storm of hurt and mistrust in his heart, Naofumi begins his journey of strengthening himself and his reputation. Further along however, the difficulty of being on his own sets in, so Naofumi buys a demi-human slave on the verge of death named Raphtalia to accompany him on his travels. As the Waves approach the kingdom, Naofumi and Raphtalia must fight for the survival of the kingdom and protect the people of Melromarc from their ill-fated future.

After the world ran out of all traditional energy sources, only one remained—human excrement. To encourage citizens to produce as much waste as possible, the government implants a chip in the anus at birth, which provides citizens with “juicybars” every time it detects defecation.

Aachi and Ssipak are two small-time crooks who steal and sell juicybars to make it on the streets. When they meet a beautiful woman who has the anal chips of every Diaper Gang member implanted in her, producing dozens of juicybars with every dump, Aachi and Ssipak strike it rich.
