SAO panders to the vanilla isekai gamer fantasy
Its primary selling point is supposed and advertised premise
What keepa it going is continued psuedo-relevance and shallow escapist and chuunibyo fantasy

with nothing really interesting

🦀 🦀 🦀 🦀 🦀

it died in the first season

While there have been good gaming isekais, almost all of them have gone really hardcore in one more niche aspect of the genre

Jeremy Corbyn's closing words

For the Many Not the Jew - J. Corbyn

None have really tackled 'vanilla' isekai since SAO
So it has no real competition

you forget the original isekai Hack/sign

I said since

Not ever

While I like .hack, I found sign to be too slow and irritating to get far into

all of its kinda trash though but thats more of its time period and its source

nothing ever happens in .hack

CON is now 190

The Kite arc (infection-quarantine games and the manga/novels following the same arc) were good, as was the _manga_ Legend of the Twilight (_not_ the anime)
Everything else is a bit trash, yeah

All of the good isekai anime have focused on a smaller, extreme aspect
Grimgar went very dark and deep into the reality of death and losing people
Konosuba went parody and examined the quirks of arbitrary systems and bad party members
Re: Zero analyzed the responsibility of entering a real alternative world and the reality of a save-point mechanic
Overlord studies sociopathic behavior, power-fantasy, villain players, social and hierarchical expectations and so on

Agreed.

SAO covers kind of _all_ of them down the sort of archetypal 'im in a video game and if you die, yoi die for real' route
However, it does it _badly_

don't forget log horizon

It basically drops it in favor of power fantasy after episode, like

5 or 6

SAO is the worst

I have not watched log horizon

its like more of a traditional mmorpg

Ah

its fairly good actually

there is zero payoff

if a bit slow at times
