Anime Review The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic Plot Alright so here we go again with another Isekai. MC gets sucked into another worldsurpriseand guess what? Hes got healing magic But wait this ones different kinda. Instead of healing others like you know a normal healer he ends up using it to heal himself after wrecking his own body trying to overcome ridiculous challenges. His mentor? Yeah they basically force him to use his magic the wrong way which apparently just means abusing it on himself so he can go through literal hell and back. Good times. Seriously hes out here snapping his bones tearing his muscles and pushing himself to the brink of death over and overall so he can heal himself right back up and do it again. Selfcare? More like selfsabotage. Oh and dont expect too much of a plot twist. Its pretty straightforward. MC gets summoned figures out his magic is healing and then spends most of the time training to the point of selfdestruction. Sprinkle in a few battles some light drama and a predictable villain or two and youve got the whole thing wrapped up in a nice little been there done that package. Title The title though? Its kinda stupid. Hes not really using healing magic wrong. If anything hes just overusing it. Dudes basically a oneman hospital for himself. So yeah the title doesnt really match the plot of the show but hey its your standard isekai title I suppose. This shows marketing now thats the real magic here. Story Storywise its... okay? Like its not bad enough to make you wanna throw your mouse at the screen but its not exactly groundbreaking either. Youve got your generic fantasy setting with kings knights and some magic sprinkled in but nothing really stands out. Its like they pulled out the standard Isekai starter pack and went Yeah this will do. The pacing doesnt help much either. Its like the animes on cruise controlnot too fast not too slow just coasting along. Youll get moments where things pick up but then it slows back down just as quickly. Its not bad just... forgettable. Characters The MC? Just your average underdog who gets OP over time but his personality is pretty flat. Hes not super annoying but hes not that interesting either. Hes got that whole chill vibe going on but lets be real here weve seen this character trope a thousand times before. The mentor is one One of those tough love types who acts like a tough tsundere but secretly cares about the MC. You know the type: all bark all bite but somehow still kinda cool. Theyre basically the reason our guy doesnt die halfway through the series. The side characters? They exist but there isnt much interaction since the MC is in magic boot camp for most of the series. Theyre just kinda... there. Nobodys super likable or hateabletheyre just window dressing. You could swap them out with literally anyone else and it wouldnt make much of a difference. Action and Animation The action scenes are alright. The animation looks good enough to keep you watching and the magic fights are watchable even if theyre not anything special. Its like eating plain toastnot exciting but it gets the job done. Youll see a few flashy moves here and there but dont expect anything thatll make your jaw drop. Honestly it feels like most of the animation budget went into making roses hair perfect I am pretty sure half the budget went into her hair. The fight choreography is decent but its not going to win any awards. Its mostly just heal punch heal repeat with a few dramatic pauses thrown in for good measure. At least its not horribly animated so theres that. Conclusion So yeah The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic isnt terrible but its not amazing either. Its just... okay. If you have nothing better to do and are bored out of your mind its not the worst Isekai out there. But dont expect it to blow your mind or anything. Its just another generic Isekai doing Isekai things. To sum it up: Its Watchable if youre starving for mid isekai but not something youll remember after the credits roll. If youre into the whole selfhealing selfwrecking thing you should give it a go otherwise there are better things to watch.
