THE RISING OF THE SHIELD HERO - Raphtalia - BiCute Bunnies (FuRyu)

After finding a book, Naofumi Iwatani, an antisocial otaku and fan of manga and video games, is suddenly summoned to an alternate universe along with three other people to become the new heroes of their world, tasked with saving it from destruction caused by the cyclical appearance of monsters and demons in the so-called Waves. Each of them is given a legendary weapon: Naofumi is given the shield, the weakest weapon. For this reason and due to his lack of experience in social relations, after three days Naofumi is betrayed by the other heroes, robbed, and falsely accused of having raped his traveling companion. Left without money and trust, the Shield Hero has no choice but to begin his adventure alone, full of hatred and determined to take revenge.

Raphtalia is a demi-human tanuki who grew up in a small village outside Melromarc. She becomes an orphan during the first Wave and is sold by the Kingdom's knights to a slave merchant in the capital. She is later bought by Naofumi himself to help him level up. Under the guidance of the Shield Hero, she becomes a skilled and capable swordswoman.
