I've seen people who have started to label any high-fantasy genera as isekai

2019-03-11 15:00:11 UTC  

Those people are retarded. But the fantasy genre is over saturated with it

2019-03-11 15:13:44 UTC  

Well, it's a pretty cheap and easy way to handwave excess exposition away

2019-03-11 15:14:42 UTC  

The main character is basically an adult baby, so of course they need everything spoonfed to them. It's a happy coincidence that the viewer is along for the ride for the expositing

2019-03-11 15:15:26 UTC  

So if your world is kinda dumb and you're bad at showing instead of telling, it's a tempting way to cover up your flaws as a writer

2019-03-11 15:19:34 UTC  

Also, it plays on the existential anxiety of all the failures that enjoy them, including myself

2019-03-11 15:20:22 UTC  

Oh yeah, their gary stu-ness is "totally ok because they're from a different world so the rules are different"

2019-03-11 15:20:48 UTC  

the only concept I liked for being OP was the smartphone shit

2019-03-11 15:20:52 UTC  

It was cool when Superman did it 80(?) years ago, but it's a little overdone now

2019-03-11 15:20:58 UTC  

or no game no life where they were already OP as fuck

2019-03-11 15:21:19 UTC  

I accept ones like Overlord, since he was already a top tier guy

2019-03-11 15:21:57 UTC  

do we count SAO here or nah?

2019-03-11 15:22:14 UTC  

overlord is a great read

2019-03-11 15:22:15 UTC  

As an isekai? I'd say so

2019-03-11 15:22:18 UTC  

the adaptation is interesting

2019-03-11 15:22:20 UTC  

I hate mainline SAO tbh. gimme that midget with a p90

2019-03-11 15:22:26 UTC  

she's so fucking adorable

2019-03-11 15:22:39 UTC  

I wasn't a huge fan of sao, but it wasn't as bad as many people said

2019-03-11 15:22:47 UTC  

it wasn't bad per say

2019-03-11 15:22:52 UTC  

it was just meh

2019-03-11 15:23:21 UTC  

I think people are used to big winners like fma, so when they get average they think it's shit

2019-03-11 15:23:30 UTC  

Sebas is the best
