I keep maintaining what I said about Shield Hero from when I read the manga. Its a alright story that suffer from the syndrome of the First Work of an Author. And it would have gained much more to give us the PoV of the other Heroes. Like I needed to read the manga to understand that Itsuki is just self-righteous with a vigilante mentality, instead of the yes-man he came up as in the first episode. Only Ren appeared as the better of the trio.

I think that came out pretty clearly when Naofumi revealed how badly he bungled things with toppling that regime and Itsuki...did not react well
