Through his official Twitter account, the writer of the light novels Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi (Redo of Healer), Rui Tsukiyo, commented that there is a possibility of a second season of the animated adaptation. "If you manage to keep this pace, there is a possibility for a second season to come, so I hope you will make increasingly better profits," the author wrote in his publication. Regarding the "pace", he may be referring to the series' performance on streaming platforms, highlighting those in China, where it also had considerable success.
売れると二期の可能性があがるので、どんどん売れてくれるといいなとお祈り中

It is worth mentioning that, although the number of volumes intended to be adapted from the original light novels has not been officially revealed, the presence of some characters in one of the promotional images would have given an indication that a large part of the plot published to date will be covered. With only one episode aired, the series has already aroused criticism through social networks by users in the West, however, it is common knowledge that in Japan this type of series does not generate any controversy, as commented by one of the producers of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari (The Rising of the Shield Hero), Junichiro Tamura, during a question and answer session on Reddit in 2019.
Synopsis of Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi
"Witch healers cannot fight alone. Keare, who has always been tormented by this logic, was always exploited again and again by others. But one day he noticed what was beyond the healing magic, and became convinced that the healing wizards are the strongest class of all. By the time he discovered this potential, however, it was too late. So he decided to go back in time for four years, ready to rebuild his life. This is the heroic story of the sorcerer-healer who became the strongest warrior, using the knowledge of his past life and healing magic.
