Accidentally stumbled on this and it's insane and sadistic and I love it! Definitely not for kids, not even for most adults. Crosses the line left and right so be warned.

The only alluring points of the entire show were the gory scenes. If you're a faint hearted person than I won't recommend this one. Although, I recommend watching the uncensored version, more than enough scenes were removed in the censored version.

**subarashii** Glorious Trash. I can tell that a lot of people are going to loathe this show, if they even find it. While the premise is a little bit broken, it's within the Light Novel Isekai "parameters" of an overpowered protagonist being given a second chance and ... Completely taking his revenge on *everyone* involved in his former misery, brutalism, slavery, torture, drugging and disfigurement. There's a long, long list of people who take advantage of Keyarga/Keyaru, and the show will likely pull the punches before long because it's a fantasy Anime, and while it is graphic, pretentious, etc. Religious sadism in real life was/is far more gruesome and, could only exist within a 'puritanical' ideology. There are occasionally 'dark' stories, like Game of Thrones, or RE:Zero, which create impossible villains that seem to distill evil in one person or one family, to make a point. Redo, isn't making the point of creating villains as a juxtaposition of Good to Evil. It's Evil for Evil, because there is no longer justice in this fragmented world. Those with the power to make things better, or protect the weak, don't exist in this story. It's not even a religious story, because the presence of a protective god, would make the lives of people, much, much worse under the justice of the Heroes, and their unchecked vices. After all, who provides the narcotics... This isn't the Hero's Journey. Very few shows take the Villain's route and do it successfully, because it's not as simple as a choice, doing what's just or good, honest or moral. Without the protection of law or arbiters of justice, power defines morality and justice. The "Heroes" of Redo are capricious, overpowered monsters, incapable of being controlled, and their desires drive them towards all kinds of vices. The story universe seems to be built on heroes being enhanced, their "blood" can be transferred to others to make them stronger, or get past a level cap, and this also conveniently includes bodily fluids... Keyaru/Keyarga's healing is more like alchemy or reality warping, since he can poison, transfigure, mutate and 'learn' abilities from his patients/victims. There's potential, but it's going to be difficult to see beyond the surface of a character motivated to burn the world. The concept of 'stealing power' has wide implications beyond "thin justification for a harem", heroes are worth far more Alive than dead if they can boost the strength, ability, survival or lifespan of others. Thus making 'failed' heroes a resource for those with wealth or power to enslave, coerce or force into joining their service. Else, a hero could potentially gather enough wealth, power and resources from trading / sacrificing their own body to become independent, or a Tyrant of their own making. They also toyed with this concept in "The Boys", where the origin of the superpowers is hidden by a large corporation, and, eventually you realise why a business would 'make' heroes. or glossed over with My Hero Academia, etc. The problem is that Keyarga is essentially mad, has god-like abilities at a cost, and could live out the rest of his life with a harem of women (and men), and build an empire from his harem, if he wanted to. The premise seems like a power fantasy, and, it really is, but that's part of what makes it glorious trash.

Man, how do you rate something like this? It's awful, everything the MC does is awful, everything that was done to the MC was awful, there's just so many awful things in this show....but does that make it a bad show? This is a tale of revenge, and justified though it may be, the MC steps over the line time and time again. Even "best girl" Setsuna is put through the mental meat grinder by the MC, and she didn't even do anything to him in his previous life! Yet she becomes a tool for his revenge by merely being in the wrong place at the wrong time. There's no justifying the things that take place in this show, but do you have to? The pacing is great, as is the plot....as long as it doesn't make you sick to your stomach. The MC is OP, and grows in strength throughout the entire show... It's everything that I usually enjoy, except disturbing and exceedingly dark. This does need one more season to button things up, 12 more episodes should get us through the rest of the plot. I honestly don't know who put together financing for something like this to be animated, but I hope they can pull it off again because I need to see how this ends....so I'm hopeful that we get to see the rest of this story.

This is a twisted work made by a twisted man. It's just porn with a story of revenge... Not to mention rape of children-like and incest... Too bad, It could have been a great story.
