Don't Hurt Me, My Healer!

is a Japanese fantasy comedy manga series by Tannen ni Hakkō. It has been serialized online via Kadokawa's ''ComicWalker'' website since July 2019 and has been collected in six ''tankōbon'' volumes. An anime television series adaptation by Jumondou aired from April to June 2022.

Plot

In a fantasy world full of adventuring warriors battling monsters and villains, the heroes and their party members are usually supported by a healer. Alvin, a fully-armored adventurer trying to make a name for himself, meets a dark elf named Carla on his journey who claims to be a healer. However, her spells and her attitude seem to cause him more harm than good, and after she "accidentally" hits Alvin with a curse, the two are forced to travel together.

Characters

;
:
:A dark elf who claims to be a priestess and even wears the clothes of one, but most of her spells and actions seem to involve dark magic or curses, and she even physically breaks down locked doors with a ''Bajiquan'' shoulder strike. However, she does seem to know unorthodox healing magic, saving Alvin or others in dire situations. After "accidentally" hitting Alvin with a curse during their first time meeting, she claims that the two of them will die if they are ever physically too far apart from each other, forcing them to travel together.
;
:
:A fully-armored warrior whose face is never shown, often hidden behind the faceplate of his helmet or some other object. Surprisingly weak, he claims he can only battle up to the strength of a few slimes at once, and even the aptitude test form at his Adventurer's Guild hall makes fun of his weakness. Most of his journey involves playing the ''tsukkomi'' to Carla's '' boke''.

:
:A sentient mushroom that Carla and Alvin encounter on their quest.
;
:
:The first enemy Alvin encounters. After being beaten by her, Mostly Bear allows Alvin and Carla to stay in her cabin until Alvin recovers.

:
:The "boss" of the Beginners' Dungeon, Cow is less interested in fighting and more in making a fun obstacle course for amateur adventurers.
;
:
:A kind-hearted necromancer who seeks to help her dead sister's spirit pass on. In contrast to Carla, she acts and sounds like more of a healer despite using dark magic.
