The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 4

With assassins from Q’ten Lo closing in on Raphtalia, Naofumi Iwatani and his companions head east toward the region’s isolationist kingdom. Along the way, they detour to Siltvelt—an influential nation founded by a former Shield Hero—where Naofumi is treated with near-religious reverence and even presented with the prospect of taking the throne.

Naofumi refuses to be tied down, intent on pressing forward before the next Wave of monsters arrives. Yet Siltvelt’s internal rivalries soon pull him into political conflict, and an assassination attempt forces his hand. Determined to keep his focus on the greater threat, Naofumi chooses to face Siltvelt’s leadership directly, making it clear that personal grudges and power plays won’t stand in the way of protecting the world.
