The Rising of the Shield Hero held a special panel during Crunchyroll Virtual Expo this year, and during it teased new members coming to Naofumi's party in the second season. One of the best aspects of the first season was seeing how Naofumi Iwatani went from originally being forced to party alone to eventually gaining helpful companions he could rely on. This will be carried over with the second season of the series as the director behind The Rising of the Shield Hero's second season teased new members joining the party along with a ton of other mysteries.
