Welcome to weekly dose of "how to rape somebody.."-oops, it's " Redo of healer"! We heal degenerates by showing them various fetishes, exploring the original art of sex
Redo is branded as a dark fantasy, which features a non-generic MC called Keyaru. He is not your typical light novel protagonist, he isn’t shy of women, he doesn’t hold any bs ideals like "I can't hurt anybody" or believing in "nakama power". What he believes is that he should get revenge for all the unfair things done to him. What the author meant by " revenge" is basically, raping your offenders, varies from person to person.
...
Sometimes he'll make love potions to get the girl on his bed, sometimes he'll change his appearance to rape a girl, sometimes he will visit a slave market, buy a slave and rape her. His raping power is nothing less than perfect. Redo obviously made sure he could rape a girl in every episodes, the power scaling system already made sure he could rape any girls in anytime!
When you hear about rape cases, what's the first thing comes to your mind? You feel sympathy for the victim, and be enraged to do something against the offender. In Redo universe, you ask "What had the victims done in previous to piss off Keyaru and so he violates them? "
See the difference, in redoverse somebody "deserves" to get raped if they have harmed Keyaru in any ways. Since he is the "hero" we got the message
"It's ok to rape a girl if she has hurt you"
How much would you need to be hurt? We don't know, maybe because she rejected your love proposal so its safe to rape her. Maybe she needs trying to kill you for you to rape her, maybe just because she's a girl it's safe to rape her. Redo didn’t specify, hence leaves it upto viewers interpretation.
In terms of story, It's written in a way that you'll find all sorts of excuses to justify Keyaru's action. Like every girls in later episodes are specifically modified to appease Keyaru, every girls lost the little bit of identity they had left once Keyaru managed to put his dick inside. They have one identity, and that's they are justified sexual objects. Like how Japanese Army identified Korean and Chinese women as such in WW2 era.
What I find funny about redo, is the author himself being a controversial figure, making stupid tweets and deletes them after some times. He said his ideal self being Keyaru, in some point in his life he wanted to take revenge on his enemies, revenge in what form, well you know that. His one tweet
"俺、ツンデレって嫌いでさ。ツンデレみるとフィストファックして子供の産めない体にしたくなる
〜月夜 涙@そのおっさん一巻4/27 " (I hate tsundere. When I see a tsundere, I want to fist-fuck her and make her unable to bear children.)
This is the type of misogyny Redo author has in him/herself.
The show is homophobic too. There are a few gay characters in the story, all are rapist bustards. They are introduced with them raping Keyaru, that's the type of homosexual characters Redo has.
There are some decent animation cuts in few episodes, character design is awful and some edits are so laughable that I wonder how cheap it is. Ending song has a nice melody. VAs did a decent to below average performance but considering many of them are new to business I can look over.
Redo author wanted to write a revenge porn but not in hentai format so he made it look convenient enough to reach that (power gaining from intercourse, bs healing power, hero getting bullied after becoming a hero, and old lady demon lord). Demon lord exists so that viewers could find a different meaning of all rape, hero is a healer so he'll be in sideline, bs healing power so he can achieve his revenge, bs power scaling so we can get free porn. It's all to justify the motive. Too much straightforward. If you are interested in revenge stories, go watch 91 days or Vinland Saga. If you need a good dark fantasy, try reading Berserk .
