Sakaku Hishikawa writes the The Brilliant Healer’s New Life in the Shadows (Isshun de Chiryou shiteita no ni Yakudatazu to Tsuihousareta Tensai Chiyushi, Yami Healer to shite Tanoshiku Ikiru) light novel series, which features illustrations by Daburyu. It first began on the Shosetsuka ni Naro platform in November 2020, while it was later acquired and published in print by SB Creative in October 2021. There is also a manga adaptation by Ten Junoichi, while a webtoon adaptation was announced together with the anime back in March 2024.
J-Novel Club licensed the novel and manga in English. The story follows a self-taught genius healer who is abused by his party and ends up getting kicked after already being treated like garbage. He opens an underground clinic and word of a genius ‘dark healer’ quickly spread.
