but that's just cuz i find that level of excessive fanservice funny

2018-08-25 22:37:23 UTC  

Super overpowered main characters beating the fuck out of really shitty people.

2018-08-25 22:37:28 UTC  

have you watched it cwow?

2018-08-25 22:37:48 UTC  

I like how the butler just decapitates a criminal organization in five seconds.

2018-08-25 22:37:49 UTC  

Literally.

2018-08-25 22:37:50 UTC  

i heard claymore was good but i never watched it

2018-08-25 22:37:57 UTC  

Claymore was kinda weird.

2018-08-25 22:38:12 UTC  

Gal Tensei is a somewhat interesting isekai parody manga. It's about some self obsessed high school girls ending up in the RPG world

2018-08-25 22:38:16 UTC  

it leans into isekai tropes to the point of almost mocking them

2018-08-25 22:38:28 UTC  

wait, i did like one other isekai anime

2018-08-25 22:38:31 UTC  

first two seasons yes

2018-08-25 22:38:34 UTC  

but the other world was actually the real world

2018-08-25 22:38:41 UTC  

i hear good things about gintama but i only saw the first episode of it before it was dubbed

2018-08-25 22:38:54 UTC  

it had nothing special aside from hawt lizard sex, so I gave up

2018-08-25 22:39:13 UTC  

nobunaga concerto

2018-08-25 22:39:19 UTC  

nobody liked it except me

2018-08-25 22:39:23 UTC  

lmao

2018-08-25 22:39:24 UTC  

One reason I like Log Horizon is because a ton of people ended up getting moved to the new world.

2018-08-25 22:39:29 UTC  

Not just one or two.

2018-08-25 22:39:31 UTC  

I have too about Gintama, and I got like 5 episodes in but couldn't care about it. I've heard it's just a slow start, but I suspect it appeals to the same type of people as typical Shonen shows do

2018-08-25 22:39:44 UTC  

is homestuck an isekai

2018-08-25 22:40:01 UTC  

Yes, and please don't bring it up ever again.

2018-08-25 22:40:02 UTC  

now here's an interesting question:

2018-08-25 22:40:15 UTC  

why does a concept like Isekai even exist?

2018-08-25 22:40:16 UTC  

i liked how political log horizon was, but i didn't like the MMO elements really

2018-08-25 22:40:22 UTC  

wish fulfillment

2018-08-25 22:40:40 UTC  

why does any genre exist

2018-08-25 22:40:42 UTC  

It's the idea of a group of normal people from our world taking on a brand new world.

2018-08-25 22:40:43 UTC  

the world sucks and people want to be in a different one for 25 minutes

2018-08-25 22:40:44 UTC  

It's just a trend of a genre. Why does a concept like magical girl need to exist?

2018-08-25 22:40:59 UTC  

Reminds me.

2018-08-25 22:41:03 UTC  

Learning how the system works and then figuring out how to break it for their personal gain.

2018-08-25 22:41:12 UTC  

>wish fulfiment
So it's not about telling a compelling story, it's about you, the reader, not the story as told?

2018-08-25 22:41:15 UTC  

Im seeing alot of manga where the main character is some sort of loser.

2018-08-25 22:41:28 UTC  

Konosuba?

2018-08-25 22:41:34 UTC  

Which is also a really great isekai.

2018-08-25 22:41:35 UTC  

although isekai specifically I think is one way to tell a frontier story without having to go back in time

2018-08-25 22:41:39 UTC  

Not having a problem there. But its funny how they manage to use their expereinces as a loser to solve their problems

2018-08-25 22:41:41 UTC  

generally that's the draw of isekai

2018-08-25 22:41:52 UTC  

Then again, I havent been reading good horror recently.
