It’s one of them at least, there were some prior to it too but they were outright porn. Shield Hero was one of the earlier ones to do it in a not-explicitly porn context tmk.
Ehhh I disagree, the slavery bit is almost entirely dropped after the first chapters. It’s mainly used to represent just how much Chise loathed herself and Elias’ lack of human understanding, both of which are then the main character developments of the series. It’s meant to be the lowest point for both characters that they then get out of through the relationships they build, not just with each other (some early chapters make it clear that the two alone is an unhealthy relationship that will probably kill Chise) but also with their friends.
Admittedly this reading is only made clear at the end of the first arc though, and I can vaguely see how you might get a fetishy reading from it (in the sense of slavery leading to her being “fixed,” since that’s a huge ick). But I still don’t think it’s nearly close to the same level as Shield Hero outright arguing slavery is perfectly fine if you’re in a pro-slavery world and the person consents.
In addition to what everyone else said, the main antagonist is basically an incel’s stereotype of a woman (someone who uses sexuality to manipulate men and also lies to hurt them). The protagonist changes to “removed”/“removed” via some magical gamer shenanigans, and not only is it framed as a justifiable punishment for her actions, but the fanbase frequently uses those terms to refer to her (check out the sub if you want proof).
Also, in the source material
CW: extremely messed up depiction of SV
the protagonist arranges to have her forcibly married to an evil king who magically tortures and rapes all of his wives to death. This is also framed as a justifiable punishment for her actions.
So yeah, the author is basically a turbo-misogynist.
What’s wrong with it? I’ve never seen it and know basically nothing about it
It’s an anime about how slavery and sexual assault are good.
It has a score of 8/10 on MAL lmao https://myanimelist.net/anime/35790/Tate_no_Yuusha_no_Nariagari
Once again asking for a weeb gulag
Oh I definitely do not want to watch that then
The “”“hero”“” gets falsely accused of
CW: SA
rape
and then spends the series building a slave harem
That sounds horrible
It’s one of those anime that does slavery apologia, which sadly became a trend.
Stalin should have kept going until he reached Japan from the East
Is this the anime we have to blame for the spread of that garbage?

The ancient magus bride was kind of slavery apologia as a barely disguised kink. Think that predates shield hero.
