I absolutely love this show. Yeah there are some serious topics like sexual assault and kidnapping used in the show, but the way the shield hero and crew deal with the false accusations and travel, powering up, beating wave after wave, it's easily one of my top 3 recommend anime titles for those just starting to watch anime, those who haven't seen it or even if you have seen it. This story is well paced and characters are never dull or boreing in any way.
