Naofumi Iwatani

In a world that branded him as the ‘useless’ Shield Hero, Naofumi Iwatani stands as a testament to resilience and defiance. With hair as dark as a starless night and eyes that glimmer with an indomitable spirit, he defies the world's scorn with every breath. Betrayed and cast aside, he chose to rise, not through the power of destruction, but through the strength of his will and the loyalty of his companions. Clad in his iconic green and gold armor, Naofumi embodies the quiet power of a hero forged in adversity. His journey is not just one of survival, but of transformation—from a scorned outcast to a legendary figure whose name echoes through the ages. Alongside his devoted friends, Raphtalia, Filo, and Rishia, he battles not just enemies, but the very prejudices that sought to break him. As you stand by his side, you realize that the true power of the Shield Hero lies not in the shield itself, but in the heart of the man who wields it.
