No, there still isn't an official English release of the 'Redo of Healer' light novel as of September 2025. I've scrolled through the usual suspects — publisher catalogs, BookWalker, J-Novel Club, Yen Press, Amazon U.S./UK — and the full Japanese light novel run hasn't been licensed and published in English. What you will find are fan translations and patchwork scanlations online; they can be hit-or-miss in quality and legality, but they're why a lot of English readers have read the story at all.
If you're impatient like me, there are a few practical routes: buy the Japanese volumes (they're easy to order from BookWalker JP, Amazon Japan, or import stores), use browser translation tools for e-books, or read the fan TLs while keeping in mind content warnings — the series is notorious for extremely graphic and controversial scenes. The anime brought more attention to the property, but it didn't magically force an English light novel release. I'm still hoping a publisher will pick it up someday, but for now it's one of those titles you either read unofficially or go straight to the Japanese originals. Personally, it's a wild series that I enjoy discussing, even if the official English fate is a bit disappointing.

Legal ways for 'Redo of Healer' novels are actually more straightforward than you'd think, given its reputation. You might hit a wall with bigger Western platforms; I remember trying BookWalker first and coming up empty, which threw me. The official English publisher is Kadokawa, and their Yen Press imprint handles it. Your main digital storefronts are going to be Amazon Kindle, Google Play Books, and Apple Books. They've got the full series for purchase as ebooks.
A library might have it through OverDrive or Hoopla, but it's a long shot with this particular title. I borrowed 'Arifureta' that way once, but darker series seem less common. Some folks get tripped up thinking it'll be on subscription services like J-Novel Club's monthly pass, but Yen Press titles are almost always buy-to-own only. Just search the title directly on those big ebook stores; that's the most reliable method I've found.
It's a bit of a bummer there's no free legal sample beyond the usual preview pages, but at least the purchase supports the actual author.

I stumbled upon 'Redo of Healer' while browsing dark fantasy recommendations, and boy, did it leave an impression. The anime’s raw, unfiltered revenge plot hooked me immediately, but I was curious about its origins. Turns out, it’s indeed adapted from a light novel series written by Rui Tsukiyo, with illustrations by Shiokonbu. The LN dives even deeper into Keyaru’s twisted psyche, which the anime only scratches the surface of. What’s wild is how the author balances grotesque violence with moments of eerie introspection—like a car crash you can’t look away from.
I later learned the light novel sparked massive debates in fan circles about moral boundaries in fiction. Some argue it’s gratuitous; others see it as a brutal deconstruction of power fantasies. Personally, I appreciate how unapologetically it commits to its theme, though it’s definitely not for the faint of heart. The manga adaptation actually tones down certain elements, which I find ironic given its already controversial reputation.

Alright, here’s the straight talk: the Japanese light novel run of 'Redo of Healer' consists of 11 main volumes as of mid-2024.
I’ve read most of them and the pacing feels like a steady progression — the early volumes set up the revenge arc and worldbuilding, and later volumes dig into consequences, side characters, and some pretty wild tonal shifts. There are also a few extra/side-story releases and spin-offs that get bundled separately, so if you’re collecting, watch how retailers label 'main series' versus 'short stories' or 'omnibus' editions. The anime only covers a slice of those early books, so if you liked the show and want closure or the fuller plot, diving into the light novels will fill in lots of gaps. Personally, I think reading past volume three is when the series really leans into its darker choices — not for everyone, but certainly memorable.

Hunting down a hard-to-find light novel can be a little treasure hunt, and for 'Redo of Healer' I've had the most luck mixing Japanese retailers and secondhand shops.
If you want brand-new Japanese volumes, I go to Amazon Japan and CDJapan first — they have reliable shipping and clear product pages. Kinokuniya is great if you prefer ordering from a bricks-and-mortar chain with international storefronts; sometimes their physical stores even have stock if you’re lucky. For used or out-of-print runs, Mandarake and Book Off Online are lifesavers: Mandarake often has collectible copies and clearer photos, while Book Off can have bargain finds. If an item is only on Yahoo! Auctions Japan, I use proxy services like Buyee or ZenMarket to bid and ship internationally. Proxies handle language and payment hassles, which I appreciate.
I also keep an eye on eBay and Mercari (Japan) — they’re hit-or-miss but useful for single volumes. A couple of things I always check: the listing photos (to confirm it’s a light novel edition, not a manga), the ISBN or volume number, and seller ratings. And a heads-up: this title has explicit content, so some sellers restrict shipping or remove listings; patience pays off. Personally, I enjoy the chase and the small victory of finally adding a volume to my shelf.
