* ''Synopsis:'' First impressions are amazing. If you view someone positively on the first meeting, chances are it would stay like that for a very long time. First impressions are insidious. In a new environment, in a new culture, your first judgment often colors the rest of your experience. First impressions are terrifying. If you view someone as your enemy on the first glance, then most likely they will never become your ally. In that world, in that timeline, first impressions lead the Heroes to split apart (though the conspiracy doesn't help). What if, due to a different Sword Hero, a man isn't vilified on his arrival and the Heroes' eyes are opened to reality that much faster? The system might try to pull us apart, but we will fight together. This is the oath of the Four Heroes.
* ''Comments:'' Cautiously recommended for now by this troper. This fic was written by the same author of a fairly good fic in the ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fandom, and while they've been consistently outputting updates daily, the troper's not sure if that will last. However, the quality of what has been released is great and actually fairly original. Following the author's typical flair in canon divergence, due to [[Literature/SwordArtOnline Eugeo]] being summoned as the Sword Hero, the plot derails very quickly as the Four Legendary Heroes end up staying together as opposed to splitting apart.

Instead he finds himself pulled into another world as their "shield hero." And he would like nothing more than to return home. Unfortunately it seems the world has other plans for him.
* ''Comments:'' A rather interesting character study of Alucard pre-Season 3 where he must adjust to an unfamiliar environment and mechanics. Alucard himself is decently written and his interactions with the ''Shield Hero'' characters are a treat. A great read for any fans of either ''Castlevania'' or ''Shield Hero''.

And how are people ''still'' mistaking him for some ultimate hero an entire universe away?!
* Comments: Easily the funniest Shield Hero fic I've picked up. The author's grammar could use some work, but they do an excellent job contrasting King's inner feelings of inadequacy with his outward actions and other people's perception of him. Seeing King stumble his way into becoming exactly the sort of hero that the world needs is an amazing development of his original character, and thanks to the author's wit, watching how the people of Melromarc and the other Heroes come to see him as an implacable beast through complete accident on his part never gets old!

* A great Marvel crossover with Shield Hero! It's hilarious and the author does a great job including elements from both shows. Naofumi is a bit overpowered compared to the other heroes due to his magic training, but that just makes it better in my opinion!

The author's grammar could use some work, but they do an excellent job contrasting King's inner feelings of inadequacy with his outward actions and other people's perception of him.

''Synopsis:'' First impressions are amazing. If you view someone positively on the Cardinal first meeting, chances are it would stay like that for a very long time. First impressions are insidious. In a new environment, in a new culture, your first judgment often colors the rest of your experience. First impressions are terrifying. If you view someone as your enemy on the first glance, then most likely they will never become your ally. In that world, in that timeline, first impressions lead the Heroes to split apart (though the conspiracy doesn't help). What if, due to a different Sword Hero, a man isn't vilified on his arrival and seen the corrupted path they now walk. Thus Heroes' eyes are opened to save the world from the Waves of Catastrophe she summons heroes of her own reality that much faster? The system might try to inherit the power of the Elders and defend this world by the power and in honor of Greyskull. Now it is time to see the Masters of the Universe Rise!
* Comments:
pull us apart, but we will fight together. This is the authors' second attempt at a crossover between Masters oath of the Universe franchise Four Heroes.
* ''Comments:'' Cautiously recommended for now by this troper. This fic was written by the same author of a fairly good fic in the ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fandom,
and Rising of while they've been consistently outputting updates daily, the Shield troper's not sure if that will last. However, the quality of what has been released is great and actually fairly original. Following the author's typical flair in canon divergence, due to [[Literature/SwordArtOnline Eugeo]] being summoned as the Sword Hero, and is a reboot of the first. It's plot derails very good so far, and I honestly believe it deserves its own page.

quickly as the Four Legendary Heroes end up staying together as opposed to splitting apart.

* ''Comments:'' A WhatIf story, that lets everyone's favorite [[FanNickname OP Shield Loli]] take place of being the Shield Hero, armed with her new shield and her trusty bite, Maple started her misadventures in the new world of Melromarc and beyond! Even with Maple still getting framed with the same "crime" as Naofumi in the first place, this delightful story gives a more light-hearted take of the story of the Shield Hero mostly due Maple's much more positive outlook, cute charm and cheerful personality along with her power of full VIT and unique ways to solo Bosses and her interactions with the other characters (other than Myne/Malty) are mostly improved because of her niceness and cuteness. [[spoiler:Also Naofumi is now the gauntlet hero of Faubley with Raphtalia and Non-Filorial Queen!Filo as his party too.]] A very fun read, if you find the original story a bit too WorldOfJerkass and dark for your liking.
