If you like it idc, but don't try to defend it, it' a shitty anime, which tries so hard to be disgusting and show that it's cool by crossing any border, uses covers to show rape, focuses on rape, it's not like other trash controversies about goblin slayer or Shield hero, this one is ver well deserved, accept that this is guilty pleasure and don't attack ppl who say this anime is fucking trash and yes like it pr not it is edgy.from this episode i can say that rapes is part of the story and theme , it's a minor part that just for the sake of plot, the show wants to show rape. |

Not because of the stupid criticism of false moralists of the politically correct, but I am very sad, because the adaptation was extremely inferior to the manga. A lot of cuts, a lot of changes, a lot of censorship, a very compressed story, an inadequate pace, designs below the manga. I have no problem that adaptations change parts, on the contrary I think that they need to change for several reasons, but that they change for the better and not for something much worse. I literally cried with sadness seeing this anime, because even though it was a good anime, but it was a lost ten. When did people start killing because there are animes, games, or movies that have violence? I don't see that revenge in this anime will make people become vindictive. Certain themes need to be reflected. Moreover, it is still too early to say what moral reflection the work will have at its end. It is necessary to have a very firm position to count the censorship. Whoever does not want to watch ok is in their right, but do not try to impose these false moralisms on others. Especially because many of those who say they are scandalized are very intolerant and vindictive people. We call vengeance justice when it is done by God, or by the state. But when is the state the author of injustice, or those who dominate the state, in that case would it be morally right to maintain a monopoly on revenge precisely to those who are excreting serious and notorious injustices? So Kaifuku is an anime that makes you think beyond what little children are capable of seeing. It must also be said that the anime is doing a terrible job of directing, by very much softening the bad things that the protagonist has suffered from, and by wanting to make the protagonist's enemies a lot nicer than they are in relation to the manga. This obviously compromises empathy for the protagonist, and understanding of his cause. |

I watched this episode just because I like indulging in Twitter rage every now and then. However, the entire thing is just so on the nose that it feels pointless. Calling this misogynistic piece of garbage is not a hot take, just a fact. Anyone who denies that is just delusional, so it doesn't make for a good argument. From what I see, the only reason anyone would ever watch this would be to get off if they're into that... but in that case you should just watch a hentai. I wish I had watched the censored version so it would at least have the entertainment value of seeing how ridiculous the censorship gets. Without that, the show is just boring. |

What many people fail to understand is the actual writing that goes behind their action. Redo does it the most poorly (BY FAR) out of those you mentioned. Redo basically just skims over his life like "Yeah these people did cartoonishly evil things to you, you are fully justified to do whatever you want now" and it just turns into extremely edgy revenge porn power fantasy. Death Note for instance actually gives proper time to establish Light as a character. And he doesn't turn into a raging murdering psychopath the second he picks up the book either. We learn about his motives. His principles and morals. They explore how the murders actually affects him as a person. And as for Attack on Titan. Well I actually think Eren is a poorly written character (and AoT as a whole) so I do believe his mass murdering is dumb as shit too. But at the very least, put next to Redo, it's a masterpiece. Because once again, we follow Eren as a character. We find out his motives, morals and principles. Redo of Healer gives the absolute bare minimum of exposition so that they can as cheaply as possible make the MC "sympathetic". And then they jump as quickly as possible into the thing people want to wank off to. The revenge porn. But it just doesn't work. And then they just add onto the bad things that happened to him with flashback (the cheapest writer's tool in the book). It's so poorly made that you end up not feeling for the MC one bit. He's just a cardboard cutout that people can self insert themselves into to live out their power fantasy. And that's exactly why Redo comes off as distasteful, because it's made purely for shock. Not to advance or tell a story where these elements are a necessity. It's murder for murder's sake. It's torture for torture's sake. It's rape for rape's sake. It works very well, we don't need to see the MC getting owned for one season before he takes action, this is not Re:Zero. Go back to where you belong SJW. And this is exactly why one can't help themselves and just laugh at the people in this thread. Criticism does not equal hate. Disliking the series does not equal being SJW. And it's pretty embarrassing that people just dismiss each and every criticism by putting them under the umbrella of being a "hater", "troll" or "SJW". Seeing the same bandwagon of people repeating "Can't wait for Twitter to lose their minds" or "These damn SJWs are trying to ruin our porn", like a broken record. As if they don't have an original opinion and just echo whatever their favorite anime Youtuber says. They are much more cringey than the people they attempt to mock. I have no problem with what they depict in the anime. Nor do I believe we should ban/censor it. I just think that it's an extremely bad anime. |

I am fine with criticism (I said nothing about your remark on AoT despite being one of my favourites at the moment) but you are taking way too seriously an anime that is supposed to be seen as pure entertainement. This anime has never pretended to be the next code geass or whatever, and so far every criticism I see is over the top. |

so, the long awaited revenge against Flare is finally here after... 1.5 episode XD not even the effort of using every single scene of her on those 30 min of anime to scream "look how evil and detestable I am, hate me" can make this stupid revenge feel "satisfactory" ps; the Deus-Ex healing is so stupid XDDDD |

But did I exhibit any behavior that made it seem like I was a SJW? No, I simply criticized the show. Yet you immediately just swept me, one who is critical of the show, under the umbrella as a SJW. You say you are fine with criticism. Yet you dismiss those who give it? That seems contradictory. And yes, basically every anime in existence is made for "pure entertainment". I am criticizing it as a piece of entertainment. Not an attack on our society. And my criticism was in response to someone who thought it was hypocritical to say something like Death Note is a masterpiece despite the MC murdering innocent people. But think Redo of Healer is garbage. So of course the argument would be over the top in criticism towards Redo, since their level of writing is so far apart. |

Y'all, okay. I watched both episodes because of The Discourse and I have a few opinions. First off, this is reductive as hell. Clearly the author read Shield Hero and thought "I wanna do that but with more rape". The premise is bland as hell, all the generic anime fantasy RPG-lite tropes are present with the slight upside that it's not an isekai. Good job Redo of Healer, you're not an isekai. Gold star for that. In terms of production this is very mediocre. The art is whatever when tits aren't the focus and the animation is clearly low budget. Secondly, and call me an ess jay double you if you really really want, but it's a fact that this is misogynist as fuck. Now, that a female character gets tortured and raped on screen itself doesn't NECESSARILY mean it HAS to be tasteless and irredeemably misogynistic. It's really hard to make that tasteful, sure, but this is very not that. Simply because Flare is basically the only well animated thing in this episode. Her torment was specifically made to be sexy and you're supposed to look at MC guy and say wow what a chad fuckin all those bitches I wish I could do this cool thing too. Speaking of his own rape, those scenes all focused on the women and how busty and hot they were. All of this is meant to be arousing, except ofc when the dudes are doing the raping, then it gets to be shown as the repulsive act it is. This series doesn't take sexual assault seriously, it's purely there for titillation. And obviously, that's the point of this series. It's semi-hardcore revenge rape porn. That in itself makes it deeply unpleasant for a lot of people and is why I THINK it's not something to be celebrated. I can't really blame simulcasts for dropping this when there's less explicit and less ~problematique~ hentai out there. I've slagged off Berserk for having so much rape in it but even that allowed itself sympathetic perspectives and wasn't this gratuitously pandering. Now, I'm a big gay faggot so this was never meant for me and I only watched those first two episodes out of morbid curiosity. But if those of you who like this series can just take a look at it from a critical perspective and think about why exactly it appeals to you and perhaps even acknowledge that it's not coming from a very healthy perspective then that would be very cool of you. I don't think I'll be watching the rest of it. tl;dr stream chromatica |

Well that was an episode. BUT HOT DAME THAT REVENGE SCENE WAS SO GOOD. Not for the reasons that you may think but how good it felt for Flare to just feel a sliver of what Keyaru went through. I knew Flare would break when Keyaru broak her fingers and healed them to break them again. Then he did stuff and on top of that Keyaru erased Flare's memory and now she is his slave. I watched the the censored version first and it was almost unwatchable then i watched the uncensored version and that is when the i realized that the revenge scene was so good. This is probably my second favorite revenge scene next to Naofumi's revenge on Malty |

I'm not gonna buy that "there was no other way". Once you escape torture you never wanna go back there. I guess what you're really saying is MC just has willpower beyond your comprehension? Maybe you've just never been that angry before? Must be nice. |

It's not like rape isn't bad, but that isn't quite the point. What this MC did was basically: "This piece of shit cold-bloodedly thrown me into a prison to be torture, drugged and raped into oblivion while I completely lost my sanity and my own sense of self to the point of not really existing anymore. Much like she did beforehand, for years on end while having me as a slave. But getting vengeance without her doing nothing to me would be unfair, so I'll repeat the same history twice with countermeasures prepared, even because it's inevitable and they would find me regardless. So what to do to pay back in the same coin all the things she did? Oh, right, literally the same thing she did and also transform her into a slave that isn't herself, but as I'm more humane than her, I'll treat her brainwashed self with more care, unlike she and her companions did to me, it's not like she has conscience of being herself any longer, anyway, why be brutal with someone who wouldn't understand why they are suffering, just like they did to me?" HUR DUR RAPE BAD. Obviously, he is doing it BECAUSE it's so bad, he suffered that fate himself albeit doing nothing bad in her hands. He is taking revenge on her in the same coin, what a surprise that he would torture, rape and brainwash her into submission just like she did to him (and in a much worse scale at that, if he retributed in the same coin for real he would have made her a prison toy to be raped, tortured and drugged until she went insane like him)... |

To ignore its existence is like lying to yourself. Instead of seeking safe havens I think a person should cultivate courage so that they can face horror and cruelty however and wherever it manifests itself. The story thus far is well crafted and the characters, as set out to us, are acting in accordance with their narratives. I am hoping that, when the MC finally finds the dark elf he seeks, that the healer will ultimately achieve his own healing. Some people choose to fight back, guess you are not one of them. I would have done the same as the mc Nah, I just wouldn't have tortured them. Didn't say I wouldn't have killed them if I'd been in the MC's shoes. |

Episode 2 was rather beyond the pale, I think. And, before anyone accuses me of being triggered, I've read the manga, which is even more detailed. Still, the anime manages to be all the more horrific because it plays out in full what the reader otherwise had left to their imagination, to an extent. What makes this so horrific, and what makes Keyaru so unsympathetic as a main character is that, technically, his revenge is no longer revenge; Keyaru, having jumped back in time four years and being the only one to retain his memories, willingly submits himself all over again to the pain of using his ability, willingly submits himself to being drugged, willingly submits himself to the depredations of the men and women who rape him for the boosts his semen can grant them. He does all of this, willingly, to take revenge for actions that technically haven't happened yet. In so doing, he nullifies the reasons for his revenge and turns himself from a victim into an abuser and monster par excellence. The fact that he's willing to tolerate so much pain to "get back" at her makes Keyaru, then, the equivalent of someone who willingly poisons themselves while at someone else's house to then justify ransacking said house and murdering the homeowner, blaming the homeowner all the while. Beyond that, what makes it all the more horrific is that so little is done to flesh out what was done to Keyaru beforehand, to build him up as a sympathetic character, only then to deliberately fall into a trap of his own making. Here, the plot exists to justify showing the abuse and rape of Flare in exquisite detail. It is the plot, in other words, rather than being the culmination of something more. This is made all the more clear by how the art, previously lackluster at best, comes into sharp focus during Keyaru's torture and rape of her; the attention to detail of what she is made to do, and how, exceeds most of the actual porno-studios out there. Clearly, this is what the director, author, and the studio expect the audience to be here for: the ability to vicariously insert themselves into the avatar of Keyaru, and through him live out a particularly dark fantasy. |

Man, talk about disappointing. All of this hype for nothing. I feel like the only reason people are fellating this garbage is because they think it's subversive and they want to offend "le SJWs". Sorry, but a group of people not liking something does not make it good. The atrocious writing and animation aside, let's talk about what actually matters in this show, specifically this episode: The rape scene. Everything else might as well be pretense, window dressing, it's all in service of this one scene. And while the appetizer may have been shit, I was at least open to the main course being good. Instead, I was still served garbage. Sure, there might have been an entire episode and a half of shoddy build-up that was simultaneously confusing and made the MC just look like a pathetic moron, but I would been able to overlook all that had it delivered on what was its main promise. To put it frankly, this was not edgy enough. Our MC seems willing to break her fingers and then heal them, but yet he gives her a choice between a burning metal rod and his dick? Why? Had it just been the illusion of choice, I think that would have been pretty awesome. But no. From the way the bitch screams, it certainly sounded like a a fire poker was being inserted into some orifice, but the fact that was just his dick made it less edgy and more confusing. It seems like they just didn't want to commit. And then there's him wiping her memories, which is the real offense here. It effectively removes any sort of interesting dynamic between the two. Wouldn't a more compelling, satisfying, and fucked up revenge be to let her keep her memories, to have her be degraded into a state of Stockhold Syndrome where she just becomes totally submissive? Instead, wiping her memories just totally circumvents this entire route of development. And for what? To make her just another banal waifu not unlike the ones every other harem anime under the sun? What a sad excuse for an anime that people are touting as a hallmark of edgy and subversive content. Fucking Gekidol was more disturbing than this shit. |

kneesweak27 said: hmm why does he going through the rape, being abused etc. again after he went through back time? because that's the only way to gain drug resistance again or other reasons? because i noticed that he got other skills that aren't common for a healer which implied that he's more than that, for ex. changing person's face and canceling magic? Does he get these skills because of getting physically and mentally abused first to trigger these locked skills or did he get this from the start before the fucked up things happened to him (after going through back time i mean) or these skills are actually carried over when he went through back time from his previous life? {if it's gonna be explained in later parts of the story, just mention it instead of explain it 'cause you already helped me a lot :) , i'm assuming that you've read later parts of the story from LN} Sorry, forgot to mention that exchanging bodily fluids with a hero for a while will increase personal level cap. Sex just happens to be much more effective in increasing level cap. The skills and abilities do not carry over, otherwise he would still have access to drug resistance skill, but the knowledge/memories are carried over. Yes, I've read the light novel. If he knows what will be done to him, why is he letting them do it? The answer is quite mundane, its because he wish to stay in control. It's the A&B's of time travel, doing things differently may result in different outcome. To begin with, healers are not a combat class. Thus he does everything he can to obtain the skills & stats he require to pull off his revenge while relying on his knowledge of the events from the first run. Lastly, he clearly states that the king is a MONSTER, he had to bide his time until the monster is out of the house. Oh right, there is also this one particula quirk to the protagonist, he gives people the benefit of doubt. Even if he knows that a person was pure evil in the first run, he will reaffirm this fact in the second run before exacting his revenge on that person. In regards to Healing ability, yes, it makes no fucking sense. But, if a hero of magic can manipulate magic freely, then a hero of healing can manipulate the physical body freely. But yeah, I agree that his healing powers make no sense. |

Was meant to be addressed to Talcon said: Never thought I'd see a TV anime even more depraved than Shield Hero, but here we are. Jesus, just make a hentai if you want to make hentai. Huh? Shield Hero is basically PG13. |

He did not wipe the memories out, he sealed them He plan to use Flare, the hero of magic abilities to destroy her kingdom and everything Flare stands for, then he will return her memories and let her realise what exactly she has done and lost. |

His plan is basically literally do everything she did to him, pretty much, including getting her memories back and realizing every shit she was subjected to do while she wasn't really there, much like what happened to him before he got his poison resistance heal. Quite the revenge I'd say. |

Literally none of this matters. I'm not here, and I don't think many people are, looking for a super well constructed story. It is, first and foremost, schlock. Now schlock is not necessarily a bad thing, but we shouldn't avoid what the story fundamentally is. Frankly, I don't care what nonsensical reasons the author introduces to justify such a thing, and as a result the in-universe justifications for why such a thing should be avoided are of little consequence as well. What matters isn't how it fits into the logical construct of the story itself. Like I said the story is schlock and as such logic is subordinate to the adherence towards the development of that schlock. As a result, even if it is logical, if it undermines the schlockiness of the story, I think it should be avoided. And wiping or sealing her memories does just that. |

I think what you desire to see is more of a love story where MC takes the wicked heroine and overtime they fall in love, the heroine is reformed and so on? The ending of the light novel has not been translated yet, but based on development so far, here is what I think. I suspect that when MC unlocks Flare original memories, they will merge together with Freia memories. While still hating him for what he did, she would not be able to deny the feelings of love Freia had for him, the good times they had together while journeying around and saving the world. In addition, MC will begin to develop feelings for Freia during their journey and begin to doubt if going through with his revenge is worth it, knowing it will make Freia disappear. There is also a lot of stuff about Philosophers stone and the existence of the Demon King, which I am not going to go into details on. |
