Problematic because: "On top of neing a huge liar that regularly harasses his classmates, he (HUGE spoiler for the game) coerced a character into killing another character, and after the execution he started laughing and acting as though he didn't care about anyone there, and pretended to be the mastermind. It was all for a good cause, but holy shit man"
Propaganda: "He has such a deeply fascinating psychology that is still up to interpretation to this day. Also, hes probably gay and they make a point to show thay he likes grape fanta for some reason"
vs. Keyaru (Redo of Healer)
Problematic because: "Raped, drugged, tortured, and killed all the characters that did the same to him after being revived by a goddess which was weirdly obsessed with him."
Propaganda: "I'm doing this for the lols. Also, I find him weirdly hot and I am still grappling with what that means for me to this day."
Who should advance?

A: This story takes place at the beginning of his 'redo,' after he reset the world. He hasn't had the chance to commit any of the atrocities he does in the actual series and, due to the interventions of his group, ultimately will not. he's still pretty fucked up in the head
Q: Why is Raphtalia so small?
A: In this universe, beasthumans age the way regular humans age. she is 10 and she is going to stay 10 until her birthday... then she will be 11.
Q: Will there be canonical ships?
A: Flum and Milkit will be a canonical pairing, like always. Flare (ROH) and Jean (ROD) will also be a villainous depraved duo
Q: How old is everyone?
Raphtalia is 10, Flum is (aged up) to 19, Milkit is (aged up) to 18, Keyaru is physically 14 but before his reset was 18, and Naofumi is 20. I changed Flum and Milkit's ages because I worked on this story before I checked and genuinely thought they were both adults. besides, it works better that way.
Q: How do the kingdoms exist? Are the Spear/Bow/Sword hero still a thing? What about Jean and Flum's party? And Blade, Bullet, and Flare?
A: All exist at the same time. The lore of the stories has been woven together into a big meaty knot. It will make sense, dude trust me. As for the villains -- Flare, Malty, and Jean will all be recurring monsters.
apathy adoring is a self-indulgent rewrite of redo of healer that is probably at least a little influenced by the way too many manhwa/manga with dubious relationships I've read. Which is to say for some reason I looked at Redo of Healer and thought "I can make a messed-up Josei story out of this" and ended up doing it. Still has dark themes though so like. Careful before you click.
Anyway. Notes on the guys as of Ch 11 and general apathy adoring notes/spoilerish recap if anyone cares to read that I suppose. Random summary stuff and fun facts.
The Boy | Keyaru
Protagonist of Redo of Healer. The premise of that thing is that this guy at 14 years old was abused physically and sexually for 2 years because his semen can raise the level cap of others. It be one of those magic with numbers and a limited slot of skills fantasy worlds. He goes back in time and carries out a long rape revenge seinen fantasy thing. I did not like that. I don't know why the fic got into my brain so much.
Still out for revenge in the fanfic. He ran away from Alban and managed to eat a couple more poisonous plants and fungi relative to canon before he was caught this time, so his immunity to drugs and poison kicked in sooner.
Was still caught, healed Kureha, allows himself to be abused for the revenge plan, that whole deal.
Interested in the maid because of previous timeline memories. Infatuated by the Maid/reader in this current timeline due to the chain of events that occurred that resulted in more interactions. (Came in later, she was assigned to clean him up, and it just went on and on)
A notable differences from the source material includes him playing along and "getting better" at healing publicly so he gets to stay out of the dungeon some days. I was getting tired of writing scenes in the dungeon.
Has introduced himself to the Maid/reader character. So she knows his name. She just refuses to acknowledge it.
The weirdest thing he's done in the story so far: used healing magic to kind of transform his hand into being like the Maid's wounded one and kissed it.
Main aim when writing him: Pitiful enough to make you help but there's something wrong with him that makes you regret it. Or maybe you're just being paranoid.
The Knight | Bako
Appears in the light novel/manga and is killed shortly after. Was used by Keyaru and his group because Bako was the "most sane of the knights" whatever that means. In the novel it was murder after his aid because he was involved in the attack on Keyaru's village and could have spread knowledge of Keyaru's party, in the manga it was because he attacked Keyaru's group in revenge for killing Renard. Renard had taken him in. He's vice captain of Princess Flare (first/main abuser of Keyaru)'s knights.
In the fic he's a coward who is aware of Renard's atrocities but is too attached to his father figure to really do anything about it.
Infatuated with the maid due to projecting. He is very aware of what the kingdom does to the boy in the dungeon but you know. Coward.
Savior Complex.
I hate his hair why are you so spiky.
Has no colored version in the manga. Was that insignificant. Chose blond hair for the "knight in shining armor pretty gold good and righteous" imagery and steel blue eyes and something dull and different from the red eyes of the other guys. Also. Similar to Renard.
Main aim when writing him: physically strong/imposing but kind of pathetic if you're not in a fight-or-flight headspace.
Yukito | Harris | The Rabbit
An oc I made to balance out the cast. What's a josei without 3 guys amirite haha
No but like sincerely. A character to balance out whatever freak stuff is happening with the other two. Also probably delves into the idea of free will and consent somewhat.
Is a rabbit demi-human (basically a rabbit boy). Escaped slave, gave his "true name" to the Maid/Reader after they met by chance, which by source material lore means that he is bound to her mind and heart, body and soul. She is Not Happy about this.
Has chopped his ears and tail off and is blending in as the "human" Harris surprisingly well. Being albino tends to answer the question of why he hides his face for most people.
Main aim when writing him: a decent, sweet person in unfortunate circumstances. Kind of the physical manifestation of the idea of running away, which even if possible the maid thinks of too much of a dream than actual choice.
Bonus
The Maid | The Reader
Low level low magic horrible stats. Instead of being a competent warrior like the other staff in the palace, she is just good at cleaning.
Very tired, very paranoid. Violent intrusive thoughts.
Wary of all the boys. No attraction to any of them lol.
But if pressed. And had to stick to any of them. It would be Yukito.

Random Manga Rant *Spoilers for Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi Manga*
So other than Yaoi/BL and lately Villainess reincarnation manhwa I don't read manga. Like I prefer to watch the anime then read it. I tried with a few and I ended up abandoning then for the anime so yeah waste of money sadly.๐
I don't really read them online either just in case them become anime nor do I continue the manga is the anime season ended...well actually there are three exceptions to this. Kuroshitsuji, Hataku Saibou Black, and Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi aka Redo of Healer.๐
Before ya'll come for me let me explain a bit. Despite the world's opinions I enjoyed Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi. The mistake I think the anime made was not explaining till episode three why Keyaru was doing what he did. In the ep it was shown how badly he was abused in the past by practically everyone in that kingdom especially the so called heros and the imperial court. I mean they all deserved death.๐
Unfortunately people see what they want to see and they just saw a guy having his way with a bunch of girls using excuses. While I am not dismissing it completely no one talk about all the guys that did things to Keyaru for no reason other than a power trip and of course Bullet who repeatedly R-worded him and then tried to kill him cause he didn't want him to be tainted anymore and die young and beautiful. Then right before death he would apologize for loving him too much and the cycle began again.๐คฌ
Surprisingly there are no gifs for this bastard of any of the abuse that happened cause people want to focus of the girls of course but man I want to call Jotaro to take care of this dude like he did Dio so badly! *Spoiler* He still isn't down in the manga/light novel either which is at volume 10 and is why I decided to rant! Like come on can we just end this the(rapists) life already?!๐ค
Okay calming down a bit now. I think I was triggered by *Spoiler* Bullet telling Keyaru that giving up his mortality is all for them to spend eternity together in the embrace of their love. Like this piece of shit wants to trap Keyaru forever with him and I think he is going to turn him immortal as well or at least undead in order to achieve his selfish one sided goal. Like gaslighting at its finest for making the victim believe it is all for the good of them. Ugh, I'm gonna be sick.๐ฃ
*Deep breath* I hate that I care for 2D characters so much sometimes but although he isn't a cinnmon roll and certainly can protect himself, I still get that protec feeling for Keyaru for all he has been through with Bullet especially. I know in Japan the LN is up to Vol 16 so I can just pray that Bullet gets bullet soon.๐ฉ
