The Rising Of The Shield Hero English dub is apparently going to be suffering as much as its main protagonist Naofumi. The Shield Hero delay was caused by “unforeseen circumstances” and will cause every episode beginning with Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari Episode 19 to suffer a two-week delay.
Crunchyroll will continue releasing the English subtitles version as the episodes air in Japan. The new schedule for The Rising Of The Shield Hero dub is as follows:
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 19 – May 19, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 20 – June 5, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 21 – June 12, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 22 – June 19, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 23 – June 26, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 24 – July 3, 2019
- The Rising Of The Shield Hero Episode 25 – July 10, 2019
The Rising of the Shield Hero English dub will be experiencing a shift in release date schedule.
