The Hero Laughs While Walking The Path Of Vengeance A Second Time

Premise: Kaito Ukei thought he would get the chance to experience the ups and downs of being a hero in another world. But after the defeat of the demon lord, everyone that Kaito thought was an ally and a friend betrayed him and used him as a scapegoat to cover their transgressions. After he was hunted down and eventually killed, Kaito swore on his dying breath that they will all taste his wrath. As luck would have it, a being who called herself The Earth Goddess heard his vow and offered him the opportunity to go through with it and was sent back to the start of his journey. This time, he has his memories of his past life. Knowing who not to trust, Kaito plans to grant every major figure who betrayed him the most twisted and sadistic form of punishment upon them all.

But he's only on the path of vengeance for the first time. I thought it was going to be so edgy he would get revenge twice. The grammatical error has caused the premise to really let me down.

It's pretty shit yeah. It's like he's just randomly god, and he gets to do a wish fulfillment revenge in the most violent way against the most comically evil people who have no reason to be that way

So it's like every other Isekais written in the post-SAO era. Shield Hero is similar and mid-SAO era, and it's also pretty bad in hindsight. Mushoku Tensei is actually good and was early-SAO. I don't think it predates SAO, but they started around the same time, and MT was actually already big in Japan, which is why it got such a high quality anime adaptation.

Basically what I mean to say it, SAO is to blame some way or another. It drove the wish fulfillment demand so far up the butt because people loved the idea of escapism more than many realized

Oh yes. That rings true when he got his hand on some of his major targets. Not just Kaito, the same can be said for his "Partners in Crime" that join him. Based on what happened in his past, he refuses to refer to any of them as friends or comrades. Minnalis, the bunny girl in that image, is pretty much the inverse of Raphtalia and wants her own taste of revenge. The first thing she did after she was purchased and regain some of her strength? Worked together with him to round up the guy who sold her and the other slaves who treated her like shit because she wasn't human to fill them up with food that turn them into goblins. That same food was also laced with effective poison against goblins. So yeah. The two of them literally had folks eating themselves to death and laughing at the spectacle.

Extreme lack in critical thought and an unwillingness to buck any trend.

That said, this is just Redo of a Healer. Probably with less rape.

You have described 80% of isekai
they are also vastly improved without menu bullshit but who am i to criticize? I guess the genre just isn't for me, but taking away from the story to watch characters scroll menus is so fucking lame lol

It was axed? Read 'Fukushuu wo Koinegau Saikyou Yuusha wa, Yami no Chikara de Senmetsu Musou Suru' if you're interested. Ongoing title with similar premise. Extremely violent, stick with Redo if you're squeamish.

Raul who had defeated the demon king as the strongest hero should have become the savior of the world. Having his treasured companions and family killed by power hungry aristocrats, he was executed with false charges brought against him by the princess. Just before his life collapsed, at last his heart fell into darkness. Obtaining the power of darkness, Raul was revived. Sneering, he vowed revenge.

Ohh i read most of the currently released chapters, tc

It got pretty boring for me so I dropped it. The only edgy manga that has kept my interest and disturbed me in some parts is "The World is Mine".

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Yes it's the same. I posted the Japanese title and Ricemills the English title. When I first read that I got confused by Raul's op-ness. Like there's isekai power fantasy and then there's Raul lol. It turned out that the gods themselves wronged him and now he's using his powers to seek vengeance against them.

Sounds kinda funny. I saw another isekei once that started like this. Except the hero isn't killed but banished back to earth. But he somehow finds a way back to the fantasy world years later

I don't remember what it's called though and I only read like 10 chapters. I think this betrayed hero premise is a new sub genre within isekai

Most likely not. The source material kept getting so ecchi that it became borderline hentai.

I've read a webtoon with almost this exact premise, except it's actually considered a curse because you'll suffer when you die again if you do unto others more than they did unto you.

The Strongest Brave Who Craves for Revenge, Extinguish with the Power of Darkness

It would count but it's not an isekai I think

Hero kills demon lord
Crazy princess wants him, turns him down
They murder everyone related to him and a give him a torturous slow death
Goddess feels bad, hero snaps and asks her to revive him for revenge

After finishing the anime, read the novel and manga next. It's a different experience, the author specifically requested the anime staffs to make her unattractive.
