L'Arc Berg Sickle

L'Arc Berg Sickle (also referred to as L'Arc Berg) is a key character in the anime The Rising of the Shield Hero, particularly prominent in Season 1 during the Cal Mira Arc.

He is the Vassal Scythe Hero from another world (the one beyond the Waves), wielding a powerful scythe as his legendary weapon. He initially appears as a strong, charismatic adventurer who befriends Naofumi Iwatani and his party while traveling to Cal Mira Archipelago. He's outgoing, laid-back, carefree, and has an easygoing "big brother" vibe—often relaxed about problems, quick to judge character positively (like refusing to believe Naofumi fits the Shield Hero's bad reputation at first), and even a bit childish or excitable (e.g., getting hyped about simple things like a ship ride).

Despite his friendly demeanor, he has a strong warrior spirit and enjoys fair, thrilling battles. He travels and fights alongside companions like Therese Alexanderite (and later connections to Glass). His role shifts dramatically when his true mission is revealed: as a hero from his world, he's there to eliminate the Four Cardinal Heroes (including the Shield Hero) to prevent the Waves from destroying his own reality—leading to intense confrontations with Naofumi.

Overall, he's portrayed as honorable, charismatic, morally driven (he avoids harming innocents unrelated to his goal), and someone who values fair fights and good people, even if his circumstances force him into conflict.
