Every damn season we get like over 20 of these, this shit is getting ridiculous. 10 years of this bullshit.
I really thought it was just a fad that would go away after five years at most, I didn't expect it to still be one of the largest genre of story in animu and mango.
>>285245750Cope, isekai is NEVER going away, the pandora's box was opened and isekai is here to stay.
>>2852458712024 was the year where the fantasy bloat hit critical mass.The five year assumption is very warranted because that's how long the Infinite Stratos clone spam lasted, but hoo boy these nips and chinks sure love their ultra self insert fantasyshit
>>285245750>>285245871>>285245966What comes after isekai
>>285245966As a Polish i love it too :3
>>285246236shoelacer stuff
it should be noted that Kadokawa is literally flooding the market with isekai on purpose
>>285246327>shoelacerNext forced buzzword after "native isekai"We need more wordfilters here
>>285246327Oh God another stupid term I have to learn Alright, what the hell is shoelacer
>>285246355Is it some flood-drought cycle they're forcing?
>>285246236agp mtf body swap/gender change has been on the rise recently. so maybe that
>>285246397>Arifureta>Shin no NakamaAnd so forth. Overlaps with isekai sometimes.
>>285246365shoelacer is funny and describes an actual thingnative isekai is a troll term>>285246428something like that, yeah
>>285246431>has been on the rise recentlyit has not, it's the same amount as always
>>285245750I have a better one
>>285245750The people that voted for City to be AOTY watched 79 isekai and City.
>>285245871Sometimes I feel 'oh yeah it's just the trend of late, things will evolve and change.' Then I'll see something from 2014 already lampooning it back then- like damn, we been here a minute huh
>>285246236I've been saying this since previous years, it will be Moral Reversal. Lots of WN back then, and now we got incoming manga & LN adaptation of them.
Has there been even a handful of truly exceptional anime movies in the last decade? I can't remember any that weren't just movie length episodes of a series.
>>285246236Reverse isekai
>>285245871They said that about Touhou and vtubers
>>285245750>haremshitDon’t you mean haremgold?
>>285246236Time for scifi to make a comeback.
>haremshit>bikini armorDid you really bump your dogshit thread with your redditbingo from page 10?
>>285250384It's over, give up.
>>285245750>isekai bingo>it's not actually isekai???
>>285247776I don't think anyone said that about 2hus or vtubers. 2hu was a niche game in a niche genre that exploded into popularity because of fan work, and is now kept alive by ZUN just green lighting everything. Vtubers existed before the wuflu boom, people just said that the vtuber bubble would burst eventually and it seems like it's happening, at least in the west.
>>285250384Babylon 5 anime when?
>>285247018>like damn, we been here a minute huhYou have a dark skin tone
>>285247018culture is reclining
>>285251392Just remake banner of the stars
>>285246355Why?
I am the weakest... but im actually the strongest?I died and reincarnated with a cheat skill?I died and reincarnated as a noble?I died and reincarnated in my favorite mmo?I got betrayed and became the most powerful to get revenge?I got kicked out of the heroes party but Im actually the best?Im the strongest at a magic academy after learning chantless casting?Im the smartest in a medieval fantasy world by using my common sense from modern japan?Im buying slaves but actually she wants to be my slave?Im not in an isekai world but theres stat screens and game mechanics and adventurer guild ranks?
>>285246236is kicked out of the heroes party a genre? feels like it might be another five years of this
>>285252520Chatgpt isn't that old but it feels like naroukei writters used it back in 2012.
>>285252419On 2015 or so, Kadokawa said they wanted to produce over 50 anime per year to attract more investors and shit, this is the result of their project.
As long as Japanese suffer, they would desire some form of escapism. Isekai does just that.
it's all Zero no Tsukaima's fault by the way
>>285246236NTR
>>285253342I blame Harry Potter for inspiring ZnT
>>285246365>>285246397The MC is surrounded by retards who need to be taught things they should already know, like teaching crop rotation to farmers etc.
>>285253452So if I had a bullet and a time machine...
I hope this isekai trend lasts forever. Not having to even consider watching half the shows per season is a boon to my free time.
>>285253840Was Yamaguchi wrong for wanting to fuck Hermione?
>>285253840Don't kill JK pls dumbledore posting is funny.
>>285253923I think it's funny how he went from fapping to Hermione to pick some historical figures and put them on a magic world, I was surprised when I got to know that Louise existed in real life.
>>285253081I'm starting to believe that animators and resources being redistributed into too many anime projects is one of the main reasons why anjme has been so shit over the last 10 years.
>>285254041She is not the only one. I like that Oliver Cromwell is a villain there but I don't like his organization being called Reconquista.The series has a more baroque era feel to it with the guns.
>>285254057It is, before we had a lot of anime but nowhere as near as the number we got today, on top of that outsourcing to overseas become way more popular on the COVID era so now you got more anime made by cheap while big budget anime gets amazing animation, which sounds great in paper until you realize you can count with your hands the big productions per year while that kind of cheap isekai anime are 20 shows per year or maybe more, and add to that how originals are on a decline too, what a time to live in!
>>285254041Pretty much all the names in ZnT were pulled from the quasi historical Alexander dumas novels
>>285245871i wouldn't mind it so much if there was some variety in isekaiinstead, almost everything coming out of japan is the same blend of either vaguely pre-industrial western slop or rpg slop with a student, NEET loser, or corporate wage slave MC
I've seen very few isekaisI deliberately avoid themSometime if I'm in the mood I'll find one I know is going to be mediocre and just burn through it in a couple daysThe few that I've seen which I think were good enough to warrent a watch are>farming in isekaiThe one where the dude gets a cheatcode farming tool and he builds a village. Best scene is the winemaking portion where a bunch of elf girls stomp on grapes>6 million gold in isekaiWhere the femc can jump back and forth and tries to save up 80m gold so she can retire. She does things like using gold she got from her shop in the other world to go to a paramilitary group on earth and buy guns, training, etc. Pretty fun show overall>weakest tamer magicu baggu field miceIt was decentIf I've seen others, I cant really remember them because they were probably not good enough to remember. I am aware that mushoku tensei is apparently the peak of the genre, but Idt im gonna watch it any time soon. Recommend me some middle of the road enjoyably slop that's in line with the 3 I mentioned
>>285254641>student, NEET loser, or corporate wage slave MCBut that's most of the japanese male population.
>>285246355Funny thing is that at the start of the wave in 2015/2016, Kadokawa only greenlit 5 of the very best isekai (ReZero, Grimgar, Kono, etc). It seems like they were testing the waters and didn't want to put off potential fans by showing pure slop from the jump.
