Summary

Kono Yusha ga Ore TUEEE Kuse ni Shinchou Sugiru (この勇者が俺TUEEEくせに慎重すぎる) is a light novel series written by Light Tuchihi and illustrated by Saori Toyota. The novels got an anime adaptation on 2019, which changed the title to Shinchou Yuusha ~ Kono Yusha ga Ore TUEEE Kuse ni Shinchou Sugiru~ (慎重勇者 ~この勇者が俺TUEEEくせに慎重すぎる~), while the whole series is known in English as Cautious Hero: The Hero Is Overpowered but Overly Cautious.

The story begins when the goddess Listarte summons a hero to help her hard mode video game-like world. The hero, Seiya, is exceptional in every way, but he is incredibly cautious. He does things like buy three sets of armor (one to wear, a spare, and a spare for the spare) and go full power against weak slimes (just in case).
