Well now I can ask: why do people meme about isekai so much? I have no idea what transpires in the greater anime fandom.
Well, all I know is that the isekai genre is so widespread, a crossover between four isekai anime just came out.


Granted, all four of them are made by the same company, but still.

Me several years ago: "Man I love isekai!"

*I find there's a ****ing "I was reborn as a vending machine" isekai*

"We've come too far as a species, we need to hit the reset button."

Oh god not that one.

Anything but that series.

I've heard so much about that damn series I'm sick of it.
I've gotten like 1/5 into the manga. It's not bad. Definitely not the best manga/anime I've seen, but it's entertaining enough.

I'm gonna need a source on that. I refuse to believe that actually exists.

Someone kill me so I can get transported to a fantasy world where isekais don't exist.
And so Idon was murdered by a runaway shopping cart, but instead of being sent to a world with no Isekais, he was mistakenly sent to a world where Shin Megami Tensei is a hit longrunning Isekai series! Oh no!

How will Idon survive in "My Favorite Series Can't Possibly be an Isekai!"?
(Watashi no okiniiri no shirīzu wa osoraku betsu no sekai ni naru koto wa dekimasen!)

I recognize Re: Zero, Overlord, and Konosuba, but what's the 4th one?

Isekai where everyone else dies and gets reincarnated in a fantasy world except me.

Someone do a reverse Isekai.

A super successful, attractive, happy guy in a magical fantasy world with his 5,000 year old elf wife who looks like she's 13 gets killed and is reborn into an obese loser in modern reality.

Youjo Senki, otherwise known as Saga of Tanya the Evil.

It's about a salaryman from Japan who was killed, and when a god offered him another chance at life, he insulted it, refusing to believe it even existed.

So as payback, the god reincarnated him as a little girl in WWI Germany, except this time the war's being fought with MAAAAAAAAAAGIC.

Ahem...

Youjo Senki (The Saga of Tanya the Evil)

Middle aged worker is hyper atheist and dies and is reincarnated into a small girl in a fictional world war with magic.
She... he? They're super sadistic despite being 4 feet tall and despite God himself trying to make him believe by ****ing him over, they're still flipping the bird off to God and still being evil as ****.

Or what Hinata said.

There were a lot of plots that went the other way around in 80s B-movies. Where a character from a fantastical realm was thrust into our world (usually New York or LA lol) :yoshi:
New York, LA, Texas and sometimes Vegas are the only parts of the USA according to movies.

Why's it gotta be a dude that got ran over by a truck or whatever?

Why can't the guy just be like... born in that world.

Because being a salaryman in Japan sucks and they can't put themselves in the shoes of someone who's always lived like that.

Wow. I didn't even think of anything like that, but what if I don't care?

I consider stuff like this mental junk food. It ultimately means little. Same with other anime **** like SAO or even Fairy Tail.

How else are you supposed to make your lonely otaku readers identify with the protagonist?

Well, aside from making them a well-written character with an actually relatable personality, that is.

I watched a few episodes of it, actually.

My favorite part of the whole thing is that to use her magic, Tanya is forced to say prayers to the god that sent her there in the first place.

And by forced, I mean she literally says it with no control over herself, as evident by a scene that shows her inwardly raging over what she's saying.

But then they can't be SPECIAL.

Also cheap genre savyness and turning useless trivia into important facts to satisfy their reader base I guess.

Normally I don't care either, but when I get Youtube recommendations like "Shield Hero continues to own the libs! #Redpilled!"

or my friends tell me how awful the series is and point out how the MC's an awful person.


Series kinda gets tainted for me.


Though unlike some cases, one side's clearly more to blame here than the other.

Meanwhile Giorno's ****ing 15 and somehow able to run a ****ing scam taxi service and fight off mafia members before the plot even begins.

Japaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.
Somewhere along the way anime writers forgot what children were.

Not what they do, what they even were.

Nintendo would never d---

*Nowi exists*

Well....
In the same game, Nah, daughter of Nowi (meaning someone hit that, oh god, I'm trying to imagine a pregnant Nowi and its awful), is actually at most a young adult, which you can then marry and have her bear your spawn in the future-future.

BUT IT'S OKAY BECAUSE AWAKENING SAVED THE SERIES.

Isekai where everyone else dies and gets reincarnated in a fantasy world except me.
When a deadly virus wipes out all of humanity, and every other living being on planet Earth, the single being immune to the virus will live out the rest of his days as the sole survivor of humanity! How will Idon deal with the lack of scavengeable food? With the vast, untraversable environments? The lack of power, or any semblance of stability? And worst of all, the crippling loneliness!

Find out in the new hit release: この死んだ世界はそれほど悪くありません!

Welp... guess it followed my call perfectly.

Time to lose 12 more matches before the next one.



That's pretty much the case for all the notable manaketes isn't it?
Yeah.

But Fates is the only one that includes marriage.

And she's the only one who dresses rather lewdly.

Which means someone bonked her.


And you can make anyone you want be the lolicon.



Man was not made to play God.
