Redo of Healer, -1. What about the promised secondary sexual characteristics? The series is surprisingly chaste, preferring to clumsily tell instead of showing even when whatever is happening is within the range it considers acceptable. It's not "hentai with a plot" at all, and there's hentai with better plot out there.
Huh, either I'm a bit more squeamish than you (very likely), or the anime is quite a bit different than the manga adaptation (also likely). As an example, in the manga, (if I'm remembering correctly) there is a part of the story where he takes one of his (lesbian) abusers, partially paralyzes her, and sets a bunch cannibal zombie guys on her. I wonder if the anime didn't cover that, or if they didn't depict it as explicitly.
I wouldn't recommend reading/watching it, though.
Well, I don't want my only comment in this thread to be about Redo of Healer, so here's some thoughts on something else and a recommendation.
I remember watching this when it came out. The Endless Eight portion was not received well. I'm someone who, like you, got really into the series with the first season and then read all the fan-translated novels. It took the author 4 years to release the first part of Surprise after Dissociation, and by the time it came out I had moved on to other things.
As a recommendation: if you haven't seen Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, I would highly recommend it. The setting is pretty "standard Japanese fantasy", there's an evil demon king terrorizing the world and a hero and his companions go out to kill the demon king. The story of Frieren starts as the hero's party is returning home after killing the demon king. It follows the titular Frieren, an elf mage and member of the hero's party. There's a lot of world building, character examination, and a bit of action here and there.
After hearing a lot of praise about the anime, I read the manga first. I really enjoy the manga, and I think the anime is a very good adaptation.
