Theres pleanty of those already
But it felt like it.
I mean to be honest its probably just another form of wish fufulment.
"That time I got reincarnated as a slime" will continue the comedic isukai trend
I bet alot of people in japan wish they were just taken to another realm
I watched inuyasha when i was a kid
Thats the only "trapped in another world" cartoon ive seen
It was interesting to be honest.
probably the first time I got used to a female lead.
I think the first one I saw was El hazard.
but that predates the inuyasha cartoon.
but not the manga I think
japan is so strange but cool. but still confusing
A lot of people all over the world wish they were taken to another world, it's a really, really common fantasy. In the West you have stuff like Narnia and Harry Potter that spring to mind.
or never ending story if you are old like me
so it is possible to write good isekai stories that aren't just self-insertion wish-fulfilment, but the trend especially in Japan is definitely leaning towards milktoast protagonist people can relate to and insert as
Why does 30 feel old now?
oh yeah, neverending story too
while I haven't watched Neverending story in probably two decades, I think that's got a pretty bland and uninteresting protagonist as well
the world was interesting,
cullkens character in PAGEMASTER had more depth then the kid in neverending story
yeah, Gmork... that swamp of sorrows... the scary sphinxes you had to cross between...
the HORSE
had more pathos then the kid
artox
that was the horses name right?
Uh well.
I would have said Arturax
but as I said, two decades
used to watch it a ton on VHS tho
I never saw it with subtitles so *shrug*
internet says Artax
I just went by what I heard to type it
tox tax whats the diff?
the poor horsie still got nommed by the swamp
almost as bad as that moment in shadow of the colossus
where you have to "yoshi jump" and sacrafice your horse to get to the next stage
>pays for games
>"adblocker is theft"
what a shitty NPC, the writing is so inconsistent
nah, that's consistent. doesn't pirate and thinks adblocker is theft.
