What Is The Story Of ‘The Saga of Tanya the Evil?’
The story shows a guy who refuses to believe in God and does not believe in the idea of an afterlife. But, he must come to terms with this fact when he dies. There is a mysterious Being X, who calls himself God, plans on punishing this man for his skepticism. Even standing in front of God, the man does not believe in the concept of God and doubts the idea of the immortality of the soul and reincarnation. It results in his rebirth in the body of a girl, Tanya Degurechaff. Eventually, the story continues in the world, similar to WWI Europe. According to the prescription, Tanya must have a natural death. Otherwise, she will go to hell and rot there while atoning for the sins of her past. Therefore, she tries harder to avoid punishment, and Tanya enlists the military service in the Empire’s Mages Division. To achieve the purpose, she must climb the military table of ranks as high as possible. She soon turns into a ruthless soldier who is going to wipe out any obstacle. She becomes fierce and dominates the inferior soldiers, and brutally punishes those who dared to disobey. She gets the nickname ‘Devil of the Rhine.’
What Can We Expect From The Second Season Of ‘The Saga of Tanya the Evil?’
In the second season, Tanya is expected to fight with Mary Sioux, and Mary lost her family in the war that happened because of Tanya’s actions. They have a clash because Tanya is an atheist and does not believe in God’s existence, while Mary is a stronger believer in the Creator. By the end of the season, Tanya will possibly challenge God directly.
