Fishing for a new twist on isekai and finding a blend of comedy and combat in Kurokata’s web novel Studio Add and Shin Ei Animation are exploring “The Wong Way to use Healing Magic”.
The TV anime is due out next year.
The series is directed by Takahide Ogata.
The web novel has already been adapted into a manga, with art by Reki Kugayama and distributed by Kadokawa. There’s even an English adaptation of the novels and manga by One Peace Books.
One Peace has both paperback and Kindle versions of the comedy on Amazon. The synopsis given is;
Usato, an ordinary high schooler, happens to run into two fellow students after school one rainy day. Suddenly, all three of them are engulfed in a magic circle and transported to a fantasy world. There’s just one tiny problem—Usato is simply dragged along by accident! On top of that, Usato learns that he is capable of using healing magic—an incredibly rare affinity in this new world. Now Usato must spend his days with the rescue team thugs, struggling through their hellish training regimen—learning the wrong way to use healing magic. Get ready for an eccentric otherworld fantasy filled with comedy and combat!
There’s a very popular series called “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” and the visual for “The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic” makes me wonder whether an alternative title could have been “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Bears on an Adventure?”
