If you want a revenge story, Nidome no Yuusha is the best. It starts off feeling a bit over edgy, but as it fleshes out it earns it. Although it's a bit over the top in having all the high ranking people be so trash behind their masks.
I got to disagree with @Chrona assessment of this story vs Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi. While I do agree the mange version hasn't really give as much backstory for the revenge in Nidome no Yuusha, I do think it will be fleshed out more in the future. It's really just setting things up now.
If you go by the novels, then Nidome no Yuusha wins hands down. It really rolls around and indulges in the revenge. In the second volume 2/3 of the book is setting up the revenge and 1/3 is carrying it out. In Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi MC-kun's revenges feel really incidental. While I do like his sociopathic personality, he really only has 3 people that are a target for revenge. And 2 of them were done in about 2 chapters in 8 volumes (with the 3rd not yet complete). While you feel a touch of his madness from time to time it's not really as ever present as it feels in the main characters of Nidome no Yuusha (they're ALL crazy, this is a plus).
Any way, the MC in Nidome no Yuusha reason for being IS revenge. It's what the whole story revolves around. In Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi revenge is just something the MC wants to cross off his list. It feels incidental to the main story.
Oh and @SovietWeeb the whole point of the poison food was to induce psychological suffering. Even knowing the food would turn them into a goblin they couldn't keep themselves from eating it. I don't see how this could lead to a plot hole. She can make unique poisons that have unique effects. So far there hasn't been a case where a reader would ask "Why doesn't she just use that poison she used before?".

Got to admit I have no idea where your finding the praise for this story. I read it and could only laugh or groan at it. I dropped this story and have no plans on coming back.

Ah, the revenge is hilariously over the top that I still enjoy this story. I can get why some will not enjoy it(though confused why they still read it or feel compelled to insult those that do) but for me, its a good fun 5-10 minutes of reading two edge masters thinking up goofy revenge plans.

This is probably the only revenge porn series I can actually stomach reading, given that it actually focuses on the revenge, and not the porn.

@Chrona While I do agree that it started better Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi loses focus of what it wanted to be too quickly and becomes plain hentai. You might like the sociopathic nature of the hero who is too broken to realize he's really not better than the ones he's hunting for, but the overtly sexual nature of the "revenge" is a huge turn off for me. Plus the author seems to insist that nope, he's still totally in the right despite being as much of a monster as the ones he supposedly hates.
You may say whatever you want about this, but at least the MC here isn't pretending he's a still a good guy who was wronged. He pursues revenge knowing perfectly well that there's nothing for him at the end of the road. Plus he stil hasn't lost his humanity, unlike the healing hero.
You probably haven't read the WN, of the healing hero, but I assure you, it becomes ReMonster tier of ridiculous whitewashing faults.

whoever wrote this story forgot to, you know, actually include the acts of betrayal for people to want the MC to get revenge over?

When this is so bad but you still want to know what the author plot pops later.

this MC is the darkest, edgiest edgelord in existence

there is no way the author doesn't know how edgy this character is to the point of it being a joke

the definition of edgy would just be a link to this manga

I'm feeling the edge cutting me. The edginess is so sharp I can't read a chapter without cutting myself for the edge lord (MC).
