>A great hero lies undefeated on her deathbed, regretting that she never found a foe who could take her down. She never intended to meet her fate anywhere other than on the battlefield, and her peaceful demise has her wishing desperately that things could have been different… But when she suddenly comes to in the body of the young, frail Nia Liston, she’s got an all-new fight ahead of her. Nia is a sickly child, meaning she has a long way to go before she’s in fighting form. Now that she’s been given a second shot at life, however, she’s determined to get what she wants. She’s going to live —and die— for battle this time! Make way for the Merciless Maiden!
I'm willing to give this the benefit of the doubt as an intriguing idea that had to be refactored as tensei because the zeitgeist so demands it. And how can I not identify as someone that willingly lives life in european extreme dante must die difficulty by choice? But the first episode is a rollercoaster of disappointment, either confirming all my greatest fears (premise is quickly overlooked for more tensei cheat skill shenanigans) or giving me hope for maybe not great but at least enjoyable things to come (physically too frail to do too much), but the apprehension outweighs the anticipation (specially when the first episode ends with her pulling a physical feat without a shred of exhaustion afterwards), so in my heart of hearts I can't shake the feeling that the author doesn't (or even cares to) know where to take this beyond the subtitle descriptor.

>>9200Tank Chair had a lot of the same issues. Theoretically you have this disabled assassin killing people for his "rehabilitation", but at least in the first episode he's so absurdly strong that it doesn't reflect the struggles of rehab and he's not faced with the frustration of being unable to do something that would've been effortless if he could use his legs. His only real problem is that he turns into a vegetable when he's not killing things but that's more of a problem for his sister and the nurses who have to take care of him. Maybe it'll get better.
