Just gonna play devil's advocate, but there's really only so much you can do with a protagonist that can't always see, it limits their autonomy, and I'm pretty sure that being blind doesn't have any sort of secret advantages, even if she did have the spatial awareness magic.
Also, and i know this is gonna sound stupid, would you go up to a real-life person who had just been cured of their blindness and start complaining that losing their blindness "hurts [their] narrative"? No, you fucking wouldn't, you goobers, you would celebrate their recovery from a purely detrimental ailment.
Drop this if you're unhappy about the way the story is going, but don't act like you know better than the author.
Your argument is as logical as someone saying "author is being xenophobic since he cured her because he think that blind people cant live normaly"

The entire premise was a little girl doing her best to live happily despite being blind and requiring magic to only partialy see.
Removing the blindness remove the entire premise of MC trying to overcome difficulty. Because she had two sacred best and an op big sis as body guard. Literaly nothing bad can happen to her anymore, and she wont have any issue either cose she gained a frigging god sight...

I'm like 99% sure it's gonna be resolved by them going to save/help/rescue his sister Mitsu, since he seems to be being blackmailed. Tends to be how this kind of stuff goes, it's the more dangerous option but the morally correct one.

On another note, it's occurred to me that "The 'Rainbow Eyes of Blessing' that sees through both falsehood and truth" seem awfully convenient in this situation where we're interrogating someone. Will be shocked if it doesn't come up, honestly.
You are correct they will probably hear why he does this (his sister), then they help him save her and then after that him and Nadie/Ellie will end up Falling in love with each other and become a pair. Thats basically how it goes in any series for some extremely stupid and annoying reason

Hot take, I don't think this is a bad thing. Sure, it's a bit of a cop-out, but I still vibe with the general plot. I'm still excited to see where this series goes.

A few chapters
She had it from the start. She could see shapes of people and could even see people through walls via 'Mana-sight'. She could even tell what kind of magic they were good at. The only thing she couldn't do was see the specifics of what people looked like.

A plot of "Disability" which was actually a divine blessing which is sealed/cursed is pretty much everywhere (Look for MLs with a disability or even MCs), i wonder why people are complaining when the other isekai with "Worst job/skill" are basically a disability too but turns out to be a godsent.

Though i guess it's because the main point of this manga was "Blind Girl", but it's not like it's rare in shoujo manga where the ending pretty much subverts the whole plot and turn the MC to the "Best"/Most ~~~. The proof is in about all of villainess manga, and other genres with/without the romance tag. The one that doesn't fall into this are that's "For woman"/josei, but most of them have this kind of plot too.

Her blindness was not because of her gift being sealed. She was just blind.
The gift are something people get the moment of the ceremony, they dont have it before.

I Meant that plot that has disablities whether a blessing or not, in most cases will be fixed. Whether by healing or blessing. Some actual disabilities will be unrelevant in a chapter, some chapters, some volumes, an arc, or even some arcs. It's just a matter a time, unless it's a dark manga like dororo Where he actually lost it, after getting it back or an actual integral plot that is a part of a character's characteristic which... like i said, might/might not get healed.

She got blessed by the Mr Beast. So anyway i hope this is temporary.

You missed the part where everyone freaked out and the manga decided to just keep her dark skin, which meant that the rest of the story couldn't even be properly played out, cuz now nothing changed. Which is the main reason why the manga crashed and burned, because you can't change something so big in the original story and then just follow it like nothing changed.
This also show that if you allow a bunch of emo idiots with a loud voice to change your original concept you will eventually fail. Compromises are always no good to both sides and make everyone non happy. Authors should stop to listen to such retards winers and stick with the story they want to create, please only that demographic and not trying to please a wider audience, otherwise they are fated to fall hard. Hopefully this fact will be a life lesson for many authors.

I always dislike when they just throw out the whole interesting premise of the mc being blind. Seems like such a waste, there’s so many ways to make things more interesting with a blind mc.

And they’re probably gonna be so very merciful to the assassin, save his sister and then get another indebted bodyguard.

You're right.

That sounded stupid.

Not a real person.

It's called human empathy. I won't be snide, though I am tempted.

Recognizing the break between fiction and reality is important. Yes, this is there.
But there is also the danger of (excessively?) enjoying the suffering of others -- real or not.
Sociopathy (DSM IV definition) extends past reality to fictional situations.

There's an old movie called "The Thirteenth Floor" that explores this idea.
Or, any book by Isaac Asimov that explores the nature of robotics.
"Blade Runner" further explored this with idea of "Voight-Kampff test".

I will just say if this is what FMC wished for I'm glad. And I look forward to her character growth.
I don't enjoy her being blind, I wasn't laughing at her. I felt empathy for her because of her troubles, and now that's gone. I'd rather a story make me feel sad than make me feel nothing.
Of course, I can feel happy about a character being happy, but now this is kind of generic. It's not as interesting, and I've basically read this story elsewhere if it doesn't have what made it unique.

People complain about those too, frequently and vehemently.

Guess it's just "Girl" now because she isn't blind anymore and the Isekai part never mattered enough to deserve a spot in the title.
