Shizu's "hero title" was basically bestowed by the humans for her achievements. The actual Hero is definitely a different person that's recognised by the system.

In the light novels, this first arc was written a lot better imo. They split Shizu's stories into multiple parts and laced them around the main story so it feels a lot more integrated. You were kinda left guessing from the hints that Shizu was definitely going to die and become a part of Rimuru. First Hint: Shizu's from the WW2 era when America bombed the shit out of Japan with fire bombs, hence her age would clue you in. Second Hint: "Destined person" was used to describe her, but it's deliberately kept vague. Third Hint: We've seen Rimuru eat a lot of creatures and take their form. So how would Rimuru take a human form without straight up murdering an innocent person? Plot foreshadowing right there lol.

Definitely is a lot of foreshadowing with this show lol! Especially in the OP, but that's all anime haha. I'm going to have to read up on the light novels, I always hear so much about them.

But real talk, all that with Shizu had me bawling first time I saw it. Hella emotional. She was too kawaii to die. :/ But I'm glad I had the pleasure of meeting Ranga's VA, the Character Designer, and Assistant Director behind this anime at Otakon 2019. They had two whole panels, and I was able to get their autographs. :)

Worst part about it is how they kinda led us on into believing that she'd be a new "comrade" lol.
