Prove me wrong

2019-03-10 22:54:11 UTC  

Well it's not isekai for one <:thonkin:299774094919073793>

2019-03-10 23:06:14 UTC  

The servants are isekai'd

2019-03-10 23:58:05 UTC  

no they died normally

2019-03-10 23:58:08 UTC  

no truck-kun involved

2019-03-11 03:20:01 UTC  

Well... isekai means that they are transported to another world, right? But fate is technically in the same universe, just in the future or past.

2019-03-11 03:20:37 UTC  

Unless you count Extella, I guess...

2019-03-11 03:21:09 UTC  

Extella is a simulation

2019-03-11 03:21:29 UTC  

Real time, running in parallel with earth

2019-03-11 04:24:58 UTC  

Soo... like SAO, does that count?

2019-03-11 04:25:10 UTC  

Probs not, I’d guess...

2019-03-11 04:36:29 UTC  

no

2019-03-11 04:36:34 UTC  

it's different from SAO

2019-03-11 04:38:18 UTC  

body, mind, and soul are converted into digital data by hacking into the computer on the moon called Moon Cell, which runs the virtual world of SE. RA. PH.

2019-03-11 04:38:26 UTC  

because that's the only way now to use magic

2019-03-11 04:38:53 UTC  

due to an alternative timeline of fsn where magic on earth was destroyed

2019-03-11 05:01:57 UTC  

Oh hey! That’s just the information I’m looking for! Thanks for explaining it to me.

2019-03-11 05:02:20 UTC  

Simple enough to understand, yet with enough details.

2019-03-11 05:14:50 UTC  

a good example of isekai would be Konosuba.

2019-03-11 05:21:17 UTC  

Yup, yup.

2019-03-11 10:05:52 UTC  

reddit:zero, overlord, youjo senki

2019-03-11 10:05:53 UTC  

the list goes on

2019-03-11 10:05:56 UTC  

all isekai

2019-03-11 14:46:25 UTC  

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
