someone got isekaid to our world a while back. dude used his cheat skill to rule a country
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%A0%C4%87epan_Mali >Šćepan arrived in MonteBlack in the autumn of 1766. Whether Šćepan was his real name is unknown, as is the reason for the epithet Mali. Who started the rumour that Šćepan was Peter and why is also unclear. Šćepan himself never formally proclaimed himself to be Peter, but never denied it either. Throughout 1767, he offered vague hints that he was the dead emperor, and as time went on, most of MonteBlack became convinced of his supposed identity. Although MonteBlack's legitimate ruler, Prince-Bishop Sava, who had met the real Peter and had received word from the Russian ambassador in Constantinople that Peter was dead, attempted to expose Šćepan, most Montenegrins continued to believe the rumours. In 1767, Šćepan was proclaimed as the country's ruler, and in February 1768, Sava was sidelined and confined to his monastery. Šćepan subsequently assumed the powers of an absolute monarch.
Honestly, it's just weird.
She's not attractive. Even when she gets dolled up for the propaganda shoot, she's still more libertarian douchbag than female.
tanya is a dude in a girl's body. he understands it's a girl's body and often gets frustrated because it is small and weak but he doesn't think he's not stuck in a girl's body. he was reincarnated, he was born a girl, and he understands in this life he's stuck a girl. he does not try to convince people that he's not a girl and he doesn't try to change it. "assigned at birth" still has meaning here. if you're reincarnated then you're reborn and it doesn't change a damn thing. if it did, then the airbender would also be transgender
No it isn't.
Tanya is basically a girl with some dead guy's memories still intact. She's an entirely new person, but the dead guy's memories make it difficult for her to accept that.
She might as well be the original guy's daughter.

So that means trannies (women born in mens bodies) are straight?
I don't think /misc/ is going to like this new revelation.
>(women born in mens bodies)
Not how that works, troony.
Troons have no past memories. They were just born with mental problems that causes them to believe that they are women.
In short, trannies are just a case of mental illness, not reincarnation.
Never as I understand it. The IP is mired in so much bullshit from shenanigans that it's basically impossible to make any more.
There'll never be an english dub of the OVA either, even though it was one of the most internationally successful non-shonen anime ever.
Back in my day we called them teleported to other world shows Digimon,monster rancher,escaflowne.nowadays it's all 30 year old business man ran over by a truck japs need nuked again to get that creativity flowing.
It's still your day Black person. It's called maturing with your audience.
As opposed to what Hollywood does which is assume that the kids who liked Star Wars in 1977 are still 10 years old today.

Yeah I've got em. But honestly that's not even her in my mind. I look at the anime girl and all I see is >If there was any justice in the world communists would be ground up for cheap food to feed rich people's lapdogs
Which, while based (the books are seriously big brained stuff), but not exactly sexy.

At least tanya has interesting setting and themes
I liked it. Femcel MC is an obvious twist, but a good one.
Arifureta is also good once you understand the twist is we don't get to hear his inner monologue. All of his "i'm the strongest I literally can't be beaten and you're just an insect to me" is all bluff and bluster and he's basically been in full panic mode for two seasons.
The title is written in English on the image Illiterate-kun. But it's localized as Onee-sama and the Giant.
Basic plot is that the MCs (Hinako, an isekaied rich girl and Elis, a giant) are searching for people close to them. Hinako is looking for her ex-lover (Junko) and Elis is looking for her clan and you learn that it's for revenge as Elis' clan tried to kill her by throwing her off a cliff and Junko is a manipulative, self-absorbed sociopath who was funneling girls from the school into a compensated dating scheme. Hinako ended up isekaied because in a murder-suicide after finding this out and pushing Junko in front of a train. Hinako is a moral person but her morality is incredibly black and white and rigid because she's explicitly Christian and has a very Old Testament mentality towards good and bad while also being consumed with hatred and vengeance towards Junko. She's also missing her left arm and her body is scarred up because she constatly puts herself in danger despite having no combat ability and having rejected any kind of cheat.
Elis was found by Hinako after being abandoned and is extremely protective of her. She more or less doesn't really care about anything but Hinako and protecting her. She's also a mage and the way magic works in universe means she's pretty much a walking nuke due to being a magic-using giant. She'd otherwise let the world burn. She's also the giant equivalent of Uncle Ruckus; she loathes giants as a race and sees them as worthless, violent savages. She basically all but outright calls them nigs (giants in the setting are based on native americans).
The people of the isekai world are used to Otherworlders and manipulate them for their own ends while seeing them as less than human and human trafficking them for their body parts and chear abilities is common. There's also a sci-fi element going on to the setting as the capital is built around a crashed spaceship, and the "goddess" is more like an AI.
>female protagonist >black and white morality >yuri bait but no outright romance >sidekick hates their own race except for when it's time to utilise their abilities
wow trannies really are really rote in the things they enjoy.
is it the /mental illness/ or does the estrogen + male mindset getting twisted result in this odd enjoyment of garbage.
you see the same troony coded stories on all the amateur writing websites and all the authors are also trannies.
take a lotta meds, there is only one end in sight for people who like this kinda thing.
>reading comprehension >context
i'll break it down for you - mentally ill people don't have "higher visualization" capabilities.
they are always overwhelmed with their obsession so they don't have any brain capacity left for imagination or higher level thinking or slightly advanced philosophical ideas.
so they utterly reject anything other than black and white morality. same reason why sex seems abstract/confusing/irritating to them - it overwhelms them and makes them lash out.
they desire the same things everyone does but at a highly reduced mental capacity.
you see the same kinds of tropes in romance novels aimed at underage girls - they too have underdeveloped logic centers and no desire to think about the why.
everything has to be direct - look at the way

describes their enjoyment of the subject matter. everything is surface level. there is no desire for anything deeper - they reject it.
even the "deep lore" is just a surface level scifi story that is easily grasped ie fantasy painted over scifi.

Mushoku Tensei is a fun read, but good lord the dialogue is awful. I don't even think it's a translation issue, I've never seen anything from japan with good dialogue.
anime sucks now, too much CG making everything look soulless
I stick to the light novels
Is it actually good? I read about halfway through the first volume and had to put it down. I watched 3 minutes of the anime and stopped because of the cgi.
I've tried watching the first episode of this mushoku tensei shit. It's pure trash. Anime used to be good, what happened ? How come series that are so blatantly stupid get showered with praise ?
It used to be creative, new and fresh, you had mangas like kenshin, berserk, ghost in the shell, GTO and young GTO, Hellsing, Battle angel alita, the jiro taniguchi mangas, even all the great shonens originated in the 90s, yu gi oh, hunter x hunter, one piece, hell early naruto too. You had anime like evangelion or sakura card captor with beautiful animation, all the classic ghibli and satoshi kon movies...
And nowadays stupid wish fulfillment isekai shit like that gets praised... Some loser who's glad he died because he's finally not useless in his new life, according to his own words... I guess that's the kind of compelling character for the modern anime audience.
You're wrong. Look at The Ancient Magus Bride, Ranking of Kings, Vinland Saga, Magi, Haikyu!!, Violet Evergarden, Moribito, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Goblin Slayer.
I used to read vinland saga shortly after it started, i liked it but it didn't grip me like some other series did, cyberpunk edgerunners wasn't terrible but wasn't good either and it certainly didn't deserve all the praise it got. I've read goblin slayer as well years ago but it was subpar, like a lot of modern releases it relied too much on shock value to keep the reader/viewer engaged while having little substance.
I'll give some of your suggestions a try but i'm not holding my breath, i've tried modern anime and left disappointed almost every time. Lately the only mangas i've liked were chainsaw man and dungeon meshi.
>liked were chainsaw man
How? That one is just pure trash. Literally for nihilistic simp coomers.

I thought it was original and fun, mainly in the way the story is told and how the characters are portrayed. I didn't like fire punch because i thought it was too disjointed, incoherent and edgy for its own sake, but the author seemed to correct these issues with chainsaw man while also keeping what made his stories compelling, this kind of unhinged weirdness and violence mixed with humor.

Yeah i've read these interviews of him saying he likes dominating women or something. It didn't really surprise me at all because as you've said it's pretty apparent from reading chainsaw man. It doesn't mean he can't tell a fun story. Not saying it was the best manga ever, but i enjoyed it.
Also a good portion of the works you like are probably made by people with weird kinks and sexual deviancies, people are crazy, artists doubly so.
>The Ancient Magus Bride, Ranking of Kings, Vinland Saga, Magi, Haikyu!!, Violet Evergarden, Moribito, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Goblin Slayer.
all of these are either meh or just good. Nothing to write home about. Ranking of king had potential to be great but they pussied out.

>likes a show about a literal manchild getting a "second chance" to perv on anime girls and go on generic fantasy adventure >accuses others of being manchildren
that series was literally made for manbabies
Pretty much anything, even fricking Naruto is less cringe than Mushoku Tensei

You don't wanna know how many of these I watched as a kid on early youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26EE3jG5thM
majority of isekai appeals to people with pic related traits
it's no wonder people with a bit of self-awareness hate shit like mushoku tensei or any other story involving extreme self-fellation by the author
That's pretty interesting. Explains why some of those I've watched have a protagonist that is unusually empathetic and kind to everyone around them or otherwise becomes such - perhaps the creators of those isekais made them with that in mind, hoping to condition the kind of people who are addicts to that kind of story try to be more personable and understanding.
I guess a way to put it would be that even in the worst western media,
a characters arc is usually about self honesty and their inner moral voice, the task of becoming a better person and learning. With a lot of japanese stuff its almost like they have no concept of that,
and a good world is not one where individuals become good, but where everyone gets what they want so nobody has to be cruel to get what they want, and being a good friend is more being polite than pushing someone to be better.
I haven't seen every isekai ever nor do I plan to, but here's a couple examples: Rising of the Shield Hero - a very rude and antisocial protagonist gradually becomes more empathetic to others , or Danmachi (technically not an isekai but functionally identical to one) - the protagonist is ridiculously kind and caring to begin with. There are many others like both, so I wouldn't say the concept is foreign to the japs.
the thing is, all those "heroes" are surrounded by women
they are an audience surrogate and thus almost all character's deeds and motivations are fuelled by getting approval and validation from female characters
the gary stu heroes never make mistakes or misjudge the situation, everything in the world is always made to make the MC look better than everybody else they're written in a very self-masturbatory way for the audience

Harem is the worst thing about anime. It's literally impossible to take the story seriously if there are harem elements there.
Love triangle? Sure. Harem? No. It's garbage fantasy and only pathetic virgin Japanese "men" can dream of such scenario.
>Mushoku Tensei
too bad the writer is a spineless piece of shit who had to turn it into the worst harem trash you can imagine.
at the end he married with all the women he met and has kids with all of them... ewhich is hilarious when in the beginning he was all against that shit.
>only pathetic virgin Japanese "men" can dream of such scenario.
tbf they are just 1 generation removed from their militaristic ancestors who literally had rape harems full of korean and chinese women.
americans liked to pump and dump french chicks - japanese raped their way through their neighbors(and imported them for their red light district harems).
I watched Enchanted recently, a Disney movie from 2007 after I discovered it randomly. It somehow went under my radar completely up till now. It starts of as a classical 2d animated Disney story but then the evil queen reverse isekais the princess into the real world at which point it turns into a regular movie with real life actors. Its more geared for a younger audience but it had a handful of great jokes and Amy Adams fricking nails the lead role.
Isekai can be ok, I guess, but I wish it was less popular and straight fantasy more popular. I'm generally not a fan of the whole "person originated on Earth" deal because it reduces my immersion and also kind of takes away a lot of the potential... I don't know, gravitas? legitimacy? that you could have with a fictional setting that doesn't have that gimmick. Aside from that, the worlds portrayed in isekai often too closely follow this weird generic D&D-MMO-ish setting that's not particularly believable or well-made.
Konosuba's the only isekai that I'd consider great, and it works because it's a comedy.
I wish there was an isekai where the person's old memories and old life actually had an influence on the fantasy world. They never seem to shock anyone by telling them they are literally from another universe. Or they do, and then nothing happens to build on that knowledge. It is just a plot device for self-insertion
Or shift the paradigm on its side and make a manga about Truck-kun itself. Why there is this magical truck running over depressed salarymen and sending them to alternate realities.
Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi, Ascendance of a Bookworm and Benriya Saitou-san, Isekai ni Iku all have the MCs use skills from the real world
Isekai Ojisan too
Overlord

Overlord
Technically this often happens in the sub-genre of isekai to an MMO world. Because messing around with the game world is a big part of the theme.
In Log Horizon (which is only truly good for 1 season unfortunately) this is not only a plot theme but a main one and they lean into it heavily. Which imo is a lot of fun. The players increasingly transform the MMO world with their meta knowledge. Cultural and sociological shifts happen. The NPC kingdoms increasingly fear and resent the isekaied hero characters and their PC nations. Though people are weirdly and obnoxiously uncurious about the fact their is apparently a fully formed parallel reality that is their favorite MMO game. And now they are seemingly permanently stuck in it for no reason as immortals. Kind of a big deal.
Seen a few Korean ones (trash hero/is this hero for real) where the main characters actually actively want to return home to their real families which is unusual in most of these where the main characters do not care about them.
I liked Skeleton Knight because it's what everyone wanted from overlord with a third of the budget.
We waited three seasons for Ainz Ooal Gown to actually do something, and he's still thinking about it.
>We waited three seasons for Ainz Ooal Gown to actually do something, and he's still thinking about it.
I just enjoy it as comedy, as I do most seasonal anime.
Not my point, my point is Skeleton knight effortlessly moggs Overlord by doing literally anything with the undead badass.
It's not even good, it's just overpowered MC wins every fight and gets a harem, but at least something happens.
Wow how interesting
Why don't you head back to your containment board and discuss your shit taste in entertainment with the other autistic mouthbreathers?
I'm the biggest isekai moron and even this was too far for me.
Within 1 episode he's already the strongest and most handsome person in the entire world.
Every girl immediately falls in love with him. evil gangsters show up out of nowhere so he can save the day, walk into a mall and gets a modeling job with how handsome he is. Its beyond ridiculous.
I was enjoying the power fantasy, but started wanting the protag to actually go meet the king. I was so wrong, the slice of life powerfantasy was the best part.
is just that you aren't a 12/10 gigachad, sculpted by Michelangelo, so it seems ridiculous to you because you can never ever experience what this means and can't understand it
Nah, that part is whatever. It's fine if excessive because they repeat it like every other episode. It's the whole package with him being super strong and super handsome and a genius at literally everything and then you also get the awkward feeling bits where the guy is supposed to act humble but the whole framing of the show even turns those moments into narcissistic power fantasy stuff. Again, it's cringekino.
like with most genres (except shounenHispanic which is in all cases bad), there's good isekai and bad isekai
tanya is good isekai
crap like mushoku rezero and overlord is bad isekai
The funniest thing about these threads is all the westroony freaks who exclusively consoom wish fulfillment content for menopausal women like mandalorian and other capeshit start shitting their pants and screaming it panders to men and is therefore le bad.
Weird opinion, considering almost everything Tanya does is based on knowledge of Earth's wars and politics or trying to beat the 'god' that reincarnated her.
Holy frick did you actually watch it?
Why? They're clearly just taking the piss.
Is it what I think it is? Just unironically a vending machine walking around a generic fantasy world feeling shitty about being a vending machine until he discovers a reason it's actually great to be a vending machine?
I never watch anything as it's coming out. I always wait until I can binge and then I find non-moronic anons with good taste to give me reccies.
Also everyone always hates the season as it's coming out. It's been that way for the last 4 years. But I can see stuff I'll probably watch when the mood hits.
For me it's Masamune-kun, Mushoku Tensei and My Happy Marriage. Also, dub of Oshi no Ko. And Sacrificial Princess but that one I wouldn't recommend at all, it's a ridiculous female power fantasy. Oh, and Rent A Girlfriend, but that one is terrible simp shit, though I think it depicts the average fatherless (as in hasn't had a healthy father figure) zoomer quite well.
No, he immediately loves being a vending machine even before he sees another person because the isekai is just set dressing for a show about how much the author loves vending machines.
I like poopooki shitsei but also jabokngi nippon shikokujingu. I love wombokai shumbuken hadouken so much, my favorite series is Gurenn Lied Kriegenwaffen Jormungandr Prolapse: Random German Word Shinshinsen
I too like isekai, but I'm still able to realize that all of them are shit, without exception.
Tanya is especially bad, him being a little girl is never relevant in any way, and he even behaves physically as if he is a man; easily lifting other men with one arm and performing other impossible feats of physicality for is ostensible female form, etc. I think someone needs to be really, really sick in the head to not realize that Tanya is e-girl porn. You can be sure the entire character is just an excuse to come up with scenes where this little girl gets fricked in the pussy.
behead all isekai trannies
Hey look, it's tranime guy. How's it going tranime guy?
nice samegay esl troony, you must be the kid got banned from Cinemaphile
Answer me tranime guy.
Isekai ruined everything. I love dark fantasy but it's impossible to find any LN/manga/anime that has a fantasy setting but isn't some moronic isekai.

Was John Carter of Mars the first isekai?
no, fairie folklore was first

Phantastes was published in 1858.
someone got isekaid to our world a while back. dude used his cheat skill to rule a country
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%A0%C4%87epan_Mali
>Šćepan arrived in MonteBlack in the autumn of 1766. Whether Šćepan was his real name is unknown, as is the reason for the epithet Mali. Who started the rumour that Šćepan was Peter and why is also unclear. Šćepan himself never formally proclaimed himself to be Peter, but never denied it either. Throughout 1767, he offered vague hints that he was the dead emperor, and as time went on, most of MonteBlack became convinced of his supposed identity. Although MonteBlack's legitimate ruler, Prince-Bishop Sava, who had met the real Peter and had received word from the Russian ambassador in Constantinople that Peter was dead, attempted to expose Šćepan, most Montenegrins continued to believe the rumours. In 1767, Šćepan was proclaimed as the country's ruler, and in February 1768, Sava was sidelined and confined to his monastery. Šćepan subsequently assumed the powers of an absolute monarch.
Barbie is Isekai
I haven't seen it but as I understand it's reverse isekai since she comes to "the real world"
Is being attracted to Tanya gay?
Honestly, it's just weird.
She's not attractive. Even when she gets dolled up for the propaganda shoot, she's still more libertarian douchbag than female.
Look up the novel cover illustrations
>guy reincarnated in girl's body
Yes
Yeah but biologically, it's fully female.
So that means trannies (women born in mens bodies) are straight?
I don't think /misc/ is going to like this new revelation.
tanya is a dude in a girl's body. he understands it's a girl's body and often gets frustrated because it is small and weak but he doesn't think he's not stuck in a girl's body. he was reincarnated, he was born a girl, and he understands in this life he's stuck a girl. he does not try to convince people that he's not a girl and he doesn't try to change it. "assigned at birth" still has meaning here. if you're reincarnated then you're reborn and it doesn't change a damn thing. if it did, then the airbender would also be transgender
Oh I think /misc/ will like Tanya just fine.
No it isn't.
Tanya is basically a girl with some dead guy's memories still intact. She's an entirely new person, but the dead guy's memories make it difficult for her to accept that.
She might as well be the original guy's daughter.
>(women born in mens bodies)
Not how that works, troony.
Troons have no past memories. They were just born with mental problems that causes them to believe that they are women.
In short, trannies are just a case of mental illness, not reincarnation.
season 2 when
Never as I understand it. The IP is mired in so much bullshit from shenanigans that it's basically impossible to make any more.
There'll never be an english dub of the OVA either, even though it was one of the most internationally successful non-shonen anime ever.
>mired in so much bullshit from shenanigans
like what
I don't know the details.
It's still your day Black person. It's called maturing with your audience.
As opposed to what Hollywood does which is assume that the kids who liked Star Wars in 1977 are still 10 years old today.
>it's basically impossible to make any more.
Why?
>Mushoku Tensei is also good.
no?
Back in my day we called them teleported to other world shows Digimon,monster rancher,escaflowne.nowadays it's all 30 year old business man ran over by a truck japs need nuked again to get that creativity flowing.
For me, it's the eminence in shadow
I'm about to start that as soon as the tendies are cooked.
Yeah I've got em. But honestly that's not even her in my mind. I look at the anime girl and all I see is
>If there was any justice in the world communists would be ground up for cheap food to feed rich people's lapdogs
Which, while based (the books are seriously big brained stuff), but not exactly sexy.
that's even worse than OP
At least tanya has interesting setting and themes
eminence in shadow manga is best isekai hands down.
>make 50 isekai shows every year
>the best isekai is Army of Darkness made by Americans
lol at bugs
This bait is terrible and I overcooked my tendies.
Life sucks.
So I'm a Spider, So What? was good despite the low budget cgi if it had budget it would probably be up there
I liked it. Femcel MC is an obvious twist, but a good one.
Arifureta is also good once you understand the twist is we don't get to hear his inner monologue. All of his "i'm the strongest I literally can't be beaten and you're just an insect to me" is all bluff and bluster and he's basically been in full panic mode for two seasons.
I enjoyed it, shame it'll never get another season. Guess I could read it.
the human parts were very bland
Pic related is the Berserk of isekai. I'm not even joking.
Yeah I love how there's no way I can know what it is since I can't read japanese. Definitely the best part for me.
The title is written in English on the image Illiterate-kun. But it's localized as Onee-sama and the Giant.
Basic plot is that the MCs (Hinako, an isekaied rich girl and Elis, a giant) are searching for people close to them. Hinako is looking for her ex-lover (Junko) and Elis is looking for her clan and you learn that it's for revenge as Elis' clan tried to kill her by throwing her off a cliff and Junko is a manipulative, self-absorbed sociopath who was funneling girls from the school into a compensated dating scheme. Hinako ended up isekaied because in a murder-suicide after finding this out and pushing Junko in front of a train. Hinako is a moral person but her morality is incredibly black and white and rigid because she's explicitly Christian and has a very Old Testament mentality towards good and bad while also being consumed with hatred and vengeance towards Junko. She's also missing her left arm and her body is scarred up because she constatly puts herself in danger despite having no combat ability and having rejected any kind of cheat.
Elis was found by Hinako after being abandoned and is extremely protective of her. She more or less doesn't really care about anything but Hinako and protecting her. She's also a mage and the way magic works in universe means she's pretty much a walking nuke due to being a magic-using giant. She'd otherwise let the world burn. She's also the giant equivalent of Uncle Ruckus; she loathes giants as a race and sees them as worthless, violent savages. She basically all but outright calls them nigs (giants in the setting are based on native americans).
The people of the isekai world are used to Otherworlders and manipulate them for their own ends while seeing them as less than human and human trafficking them for their body parts and chear abilities is common. There's also a sci-fi element going on to the setting as the capital is built around a crashed spaceship, and the "goddess" is more like an AI.
>female protagonist
>black and white morality
>yuri bait but no outright romance
>sidekick hates their own race except for when it's time to utilise their abilities
wow trannies really are really rote in the things they enjoy.
is it the /mental illness/ or does the estrogen + male mindset getting twisted result in this odd enjoyment of garbage.
you see the same troony coded stories on all the amateur writing websites and all the authors are also trannies.
take a lotta meds, there is only one end in sight for people who like this kinda thing.
>black and white morality
>bad
Huh?
>reading comprehension
>context
i'll break it down for you - mentally ill people don't have "higher visualization" capabilities.
they are always overwhelmed with their obsession so they don't have any brain capacity left for imagination or higher level thinking or slightly advanced philosophical ideas.
so they utterly reject anything other than black and white morality. same reason why sex seems abstract/confusing/irritating to them - it overwhelms them and makes them lash out.
they desire the same things everyone does but at a highly reduced mental capacity.
you see the same kinds of tropes in romance novels aimed at underage girls - they too have underdeveloped logic centers and no desire to think about the why.
everything has to be direct - look at the way
describes their enjoyment of the subject matter. everything is surface level. there is no desire for anything deeper - they reject it.
even the "deep lore" is just a surface level scifi story that is easily grasped ie fantasy painted over scifi.
>mentally ill people don't have "higher visualization" capabilities.
>they are always overwhelmed with their obsession so they don't have any brain capacity

>got up to there and stopped caring.

Mushoku Tensei is a fun read, but good lord the dialogue is awful. I don't even think it's a translation issue, I've never seen anything from japan with good dialogue.
I can't read so I have to wait for the dub.
I was talking about the novels
>I've never seen anything from japan with good dialogue
Monogatari Series
Extremely mediocre anime. Mushoku Tensei is awesome tho but only anime, LN is soooo bad later.
>Extremely mediocre anime
Wrong
This anime has no soul unlike Mushoku Tensei.
Your face has no soul.
mushitku tenshitei is shit tho
Your face is shit tho
based isekai enjoyers
for me its the spider waifu isekai, its such a shame the adaptation was given to a dogshit studio it deserved so much better
anime sucks now, too much CG making everything look soulless
I stick to the light novels
Is it actually good? I read about halfway through the first volume and had to put it down. I watched 3 minutes of the anime and stopped because of the cgi.
I read up until LN11 and got bored of it, I heard the ending is bad too but up until then it was good.
for me, it's last action hero
Mushoku Tensei is one of the most cringe-inducing things I've ever read. If you think that's good, get better taste
I've tried watching the first episode of this mushoku tensei shit. It's pure trash. Anime used to be good, what happened ? How come series that are so blatantly stupid get showered with praise ?
>anime used to be good
lol
Yes
Only if you compare it to Western cartoons.
It used to be creative, new and fresh, you had mangas like kenshin, berserk, ghost in the shell, GTO and young GTO, Hellsing, Battle angel alita, the jiro taniguchi mangas, even all the great shonens originated in the 90s, yu gi oh, hunter x hunter, one piece, hell early naruto too. You had anime like evangelion or sakura card captor with beautiful animation, all the classic ghibli and satoshi kon movies...
And nowadays stupid wish fulfillment isekai shit like that gets praised... Some loser who's glad he died because he's finally not useless in his new life, according to his own words... I guess that's the kind of compelling character for the modern anime audience.
You're wrong. Look at The Ancient Magus Bride, Ranking of Kings, Vinland Saga, Magi, Haikyu!!, Violet Evergarden, Moribito, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Goblin Slayer.
I used to read vinland saga shortly after it started, i liked it but it didn't grip me like some other series did, cyberpunk edgerunners wasn't terrible but wasn't good either and it certainly didn't deserve all the praise it got. I've read goblin slayer as well years ago but it was subpar, like a lot of modern releases it relied too much on shock value to keep the reader/viewer engaged while having little substance.
I'll give some of your suggestions a try but i'm not holding my breath, i've tried modern anime and left disappointed almost every time. Lately the only mangas i've liked were chainsaw man and dungeon meshi.
>liked were chainsaw man
How? That one is just pure trash. Literally for nihilistic simp coomers.
I thought it was original and fun, mainly in the way the story is told and how the characters are portrayed. I didn't like fire punch because i thought it was too disjointed, incoherent and edgy for its own sake, but the author seemed to correct these issues with chainsaw man while also keeping what made his stories compelling, this kind of unhinged weirdness and violence mixed with humor.
The author is a masochistic coomer and that much is very apparent when looking at Chainsaw Man. I don't know, this doesn't reflect well on you.
Yeah i've read these interviews of him saying he likes dominating women or something. It didn't really surprise me at all because as you've said it's pretty apparent from reading chainsaw man. It doesn't mean he can't tell a fun story. Not saying it was the best manga ever, but i enjoyed it.
Also a good portion of the works you like are probably made by people with weird kinks and sexual deviancies, people are crazy, artists doubly so.
>I used to read vinland saga
It turns to shit some time after the Farm Arc.
I don't remember much about it tbh, it was a long time ago
>The Ancient Magus Bride, Ranking of Kings, Vinland Saga, Magi, Haikyu!!, Violet Evergarden, Moribito, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Goblin Slayer.
all of these are either meh or just good. Nothing to write home about. Ranking of king had potential to be great but they pussied out.
Okay. What is better?
The entire premise of isekai is shit. Especially all those video game related isekais.
>classic ghibli
Every time.
Nothing identifies a pointless poser like listing Ghibli as "classic anime".
There are three types of people who give a shit about Ghibli
1. Thots
2. Hollywood wanker
3. morons who don't realize who's in the other two groups.
>Anime used to be good
Mushoku Tensei is better than most any anime ever made. You're delusional. Nostalgia really kills the feeble millennial brain.
mushoku tensei is like a 12 year old kid's fanfiction, if you think that's quality you must have brain damage
Name something better, manchild.
>likes a show about a literal manchild getting a "second chance" to perv on anime girls and go on generic fantasy adventure
>accuses others of being manchildren
that series was literally made for manbabies
Again, name something better, coward.
No, not "less cringe". I want to hear a positive, instead of a negative, you millennial manchild.
they can't name nothing anon, nothing, always,
>"this is bad"
>so what is better?
hey balls rolling
you really think people can't name something better ?
every time someone says criticize an anime, says that the west is better, or talks about how bad is a show, says that others are superior, like the most average western work this year is superior to even the best manga, and shit like that, they can never name nothing, nor a manga, nor an anime, nor a movie, nothing, this happened at least 20 times that I asked, all their comments are just full of shit, because they watch nothing
There have been plenty of suggestions in this thread already. Read ghost in the shell for example. There you have it, it wasn't hard.
>suggestions
the questions are directed to the ones that made the claims, not random suggestions
i made the claim, i suggest reading gits
so have you read/watched mushoku tensei, or just read a synopsis and see a clip? And I have already done that
Nta I watched like 5 or 6 episodes and it wasn’t good. Made in abyss was infinitely superior for recent anime.
>gits
Relies on its reputation. Many such cases. It's the boomer philosophy of stagnation. Forceful insistence.
The movie kind of does but the manga absolutely doesn't
i've watched the first episode and couldn't stomach watching the second one
>i've watched the first episode and couldn't stomach watching the second one
ok so you haven't watched or read it and spout your opinon it.
Btw gits is awful, I formed this opinon reading 10 pages, skipping half the panels while I was scrolling my phone
This.
And I'm sick of hearing it too.
Hollywood and hollywood alone has stagnated. Everyone else is still innovating and pushing boundaries.
Oh sure, especially anime, lol. 300 shows per year, 70% comedies, 95% about teenagers. So innovative, holy shit.
Wit Studio is putting out banger after banger.
Oh sure, especially hollywood, lol. 30 movies per year, 70% comedies, 30% capeshit 95% about adults. So innovative, holy shit.
>Hollywood
>comedies
Maybe 20 years ago.
>95% about adults
Yeah, because films are for adults, which is why adults tend to be main characters. This is true not only for Hollywood, but for any country. Including Japan.

Isekai have been the death of manga (and as a result anime) for the last 10 years. The fact it's full of moeshit and waifushit makes it even worse.
majority of isekai appeals to people with pic related traits
it's no wonder people with a bit of self-awareness hate shit like mushoku tensei or any other story involving extreme self-fellation by the author
That's pretty interesting. Explains why some of those I've watched have a protagonist that is unusually empathetic and kind to everyone around them or otherwise becomes such - perhaps the creators of those isekais made them with that in mind, hoping to condition the kind of people who are addicts to that kind of story try to be more personable and understanding.
I guess a way to put it would be that even in the worst western media,
a characters arc is usually about self honesty and their inner moral voice, the task of becoming a better person and learning. With a lot of japanese stuff its almost like they have no concept of that,
and a good world is not one where individuals become good, but where everyone gets what they want so nobody has to be cruel to get what they want, and being a good friend is more being polite than pushing someone to be better.
I haven't seen every isekai ever nor do I plan to, but here's a couple examples: Rising of the Shield Hero - a very rude and antisocial protagonist gradually becomes more empathetic to others , or Danmachi (technically not an isekai but functionally identical to one) - the protagonist is ridiculously kind and caring to begin with. There are many others like both, so I wouldn't say the concept is foreign to the japs.
the thing is, all those "heroes" are surrounded by women
they are an audience surrogate and thus almost all character's deeds and motivations are fuelled by getting approval and validation from female characters
the gary stu heroes never make mistakes or misjudge the situation, everything in the world is always made to make the MC look better than everybody else they're written in a very self-masturbatory way for the audience
this is what i dislike most about those animes. You can't watch them without having miyazaki saying "anime is nothing but trash for otakus" in the back of your mind
>miyazaki
Miyazaki produces nothing but normietrash for women. Anyone who lists a Ghibli film for any reason instantly identifies themself as someone not to be taken seriously.
And that is just a long winded way of saying it's escapist fantasy for men. Oh no, what a fricking crime, making things men like, how dare they.
>for men
I'm a man. This is not my fantasy. It's a fantasy of pathetic Japanese virgin manchildren, which is why this genre doesn't even exist in the West.
>why this genre doesn't even exist in the West
>tell me you're illiterate without telling me you're illiterate
Harem doesn't exist in the West.
I was talking Isekai.
there are tons of harem litrpgs which are somewhat popular but I assume they are popular with the same type of crowd that watch harem anime in the west
You talking about The Name of the Wind and such?
nothing that caters to the fantasies of men is produced, well apart military shit so you are ready to kys when the call comes
>It's a fantasy of pathetic Japanese virgin manchildren
What website do you think you're on right now? Because spoiler this isn't the website where the successful sex havers hang out and have sex successfully.
What boars do you think you're on? This is normie central now, have the spergs here somehow have GF's, if that bothers you, you should go back to your containment board.
No it isn't dickhead, nu-Cinemaphile is transitory. You don't change this place, this place changes you.

And also the people who populate this website until you twitter fricks came along.
Anime was better when authors were inspired by superior Western entertainment.
Why would anyone watch isekai when they can just play a videogame that suits their particular desired fantasy no matter how peculiar
for me its Korean isekai slop
there are hundreds of these and they're all so bad but I can't stop reading them
"Tutorial is too Hard" was surprisingly good
For me, it's Korean murim. I love wuxia and this shit is the perfect flavor of it (aside from the webtoon format, which I hate).

Harem is the worst thing about anime. It's literally impossible to take the story seriously if there are harem elements there.
Love triangle? Sure. Harem? No. It's garbage fantasy and only pathetic virgin Japanese "men" can dream of such scenario.
>Mushoku Tensei
too bad the writer is a spineless piece of shit who had to turn it into the worst harem trash you can imagine.
at the end he married with all the women he met and has kids with all of them... ewhich is hilarious when in the beginning he was all against that shit.
Oh no, does it have pretty girls in it who actually like the protagonist and treat him well?! How terrible!
>only pathetic virgin Japanese "men" can dream of such scenario.
tbf they are just 1 generation removed from their militaristic ancestors who literally had rape harems full of korean and chinese women.
americans liked to pump and dump french chicks - japanese raped their way through their neighbors(and imported them for their red light district harems).
>jap men
>I HAVE TO BRING UP AMERICANS ANYWAY I HAVE TO REEEEE
this anime would be much better without the isekai shit
I watched Enchanted recently, a Disney movie from 2007 after I discovered it randomly. It somehow went under my radar completely up till now. It starts of as a classical 2d animated Disney story but then the evil queen reverse isekais the princess into the real world at which point it turns into a regular movie with real life actors. Its more geared for a younger audience but it had a handful of great jokes and Amy Adams fricking nails the lead role.
I think I watched that at the cinema on a girl friend's birthday.
Isekai can be ok, I guess, but I wish it was less popular and straight fantasy more popular. I'm generally not a fan of the whole "person originated on Earth" deal because it reduces my immersion and also kind of takes away a lot of the potential... I don't know, gravitas? legitimacy? that you could have with a fictional setting that doesn't have that gimmick. Aside from that, the worlds portrayed in isekai often too closely follow this weird generic D&D-MMO-ish setting that's not particularly believable or well-made.
Konosuba's the only isekai that I'd consider great, and it works because it's a comedy.
Darkness is best girl.
I wish there was an isekai where the person's old memories and old life actually had an influence on the fantasy world. They never seem to shock anyone by telling them they are literally from another universe. Or they do, and then nothing happens to build on that knowledge. It is just a plot device for self-insertion
Or shift the paradigm on its side and make a manga about Truck-kun itself. Why there is this magical truck running over depressed salarymen and sending them to alternate realities.
Gate kinda.
Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi, Ascendance of a Bookworm and Benriya Saitou-san, Isekai ni Iku all have the MCs use skills from the real world
Isekai Ojisan too
Overlord
>skills from the real world
That's not what he meant, he meant psychological stuff. How people would react to someone traversing worlds, I think.
in 90% of isekai settings, getting isekai'ed is completely normal, and done routinely for i.e. heroes and such
Yeah, Shield Hero i.e. is about a guy that was summoned as a hero. Still, if anon meant skills from the real world, there's also a shit-ton.
Also Mahou-sama Retry
Technically this often happens in the sub-genre of isekai to an MMO world. Because messing around with the game world is a big part of the theme.
In Log Horizon (which is only truly good for 1 season unfortunately) this is not only a plot theme but a main one and they lean into it heavily. Which imo is a lot of fun. The players increasingly transform the MMO world with their meta knowledge. Cultural and sociological shifts happen. The NPC kingdoms increasingly fear and resent the isekaied hero characters and their PC nations. Though people are weirdly and obnoxiously uncurious about the fact their is apparently a fully formed parallel reality that is their favorite MMO game. And now they are seemingly permanently stuck in it for no reason as immortals. Kind of a big deal.
Handyman Saitou in another world
Seen a few Korean ones (trash hero/is this hero for real) where the main characters actually actively want to return home to their real families which is unusual in most of these where the main characters do not care about them.
See that sounds better. Give the characters realistic human emotions for once instead of LOL IM GOD NOW BRRRRR
Arifureta is literally this.
Realist Hero is literally "what if you dropped a polisci graduate into a fantasy world and let him run a kingdom"
Black folk getting isekai'd is top entertainment and I actually wish they made more. Unless it's played straight, like that Forspoken utter shit.

We waited three seasons for Ainz Ooal Gown to actually do something, and he's still thinking about it.

I just enjoy it as comedy, as I do most seasonal anime.
Not my point, my point is Skeleton knight effortlessly moggs Overlord by doing literally anything with the undead badass.
It's not even good, it's just overpowered MC wins every fight and gets a harem, but at least something happens.
Tanya Season 2 when?
Why can't they make proper fantasy? What's wrong with something like Berserk?
Ranking of Kings
Moribito
Goblin Slayer
Claymore
Don't know the first one, but Moribito and Claymore are old and Goblin Slayer is shit.
>Goblin Slayer is shit
>t. woman
Wow how interesting
Why don't you head back to your containment board and discuss your shit taste in entertainment with the other autistic mouthbreathers?
This was some of the most shameless power fantasy crap I've ever seen. Pure cringekino.
Was a good looing show though
Outside of the CGI
Agreed.
Chick on the left looks hot, I'll add it to the list.
I'm the biggest isekai moron and even this was too far for me.
Within 1 episode he's already the strongest and most handsome person in the entire world.
Every girl immediately falls in love with him. evil gangsters show up out of nowhere so he can save the day, walk into a mall and gets a modeling job with how handsome he is. Its beyond ridiculous.
>Its beyond ridiculous.
Yup. It's utterly shameless.
I was enjoying the power fantasy, but started wanting the protag to actually go meet the king. I was so wrong, the slice of life powerfantasy was the best part.
>ridiculous
>unrealistic
holy frick anons, what happened there is even contained compared to what happens in reality
is just that you aren't a 12/10 gigachad, sculpted by Michelangelo, so it seems ridiculous to you because you can never ever experience what this means and can't understand it
Nah, that part is whatever. It's fine if excessive because they repeat it like every other episode. It's the whole package with him being super strong and super handsome and a genius at literally everything and then you also get the awkward feeling bits where the guy is supposed to act humble but the whole framing of the show even turns those moments into narcissistic power fantasy stuff. Again, it's cringekino.
like with most genres (except shounenHispanic which is in all cases bad), there's good isekai and bad isekai
tanya is good isekai
crap like mushoku rezero and overlord is bad isekai
>mushoku rezero
Imagine putting these two things next to each other and thinking it doesn't instantly identify you as a poser.
let me guess, you are brown
>B-b-but I'm le racist just like you senpai
Like I said, poser.
>anime then
protagonist is strong-willed, manly and confident
>anime now
protagonist is a wimpy homosexual that constantly gets saved by women
I think you've confused anime for hollywood there chum.
The funniest thing about these threads is all the westroony freaks who exclusively consoom wish fulfillment content for menopausal women like mandalorian and other capeshit start shitting their pants and screaming it panders to men and is therefore le bad.
yes, what the frick does those people watch? lotr? hod? euphoria? wednesday? She hulk? Because what panders to men is exactly 0
They watch clickbait on social media.
>tanya
>isekai
I barely remember the isekai element even being mentioned outside of the introduction.
So just like in every standard isekai
Weird opinion, considering almost everything Tanya does is based on knowledge of Earth's wars and politics or trying to beat the 'god' that reincarnated her.
One cannot truly be into isekai until one see's this and think "Oooh yes, that's for me!"
Until that's you, you're just a dabbler.
This whole season is horrid dogshit thus far. At least the dubbed stuff.
Holy frick did you actually watch it?
Why? They're clearly just taking the piss.
Is it what I think it is? Just unironically a vending machine walking around a generic fantasy world feeling shitty about being a vending machine until he discovers a reason it's actually great to be a vending machine?
No. I'm talking about this whole season. Everything feels AI generated.
I never watch anything as it's coming out. I always wait until I can binge and then I find non-moronic anons with good taste to give me reccies.
Also everyone always hates the season as it's coming out. It's been that way for the last 4 years. But I can see stuff I'll probably watch when the mood hits.
Only things I'm watching this season are continuations of previous series.
For me it's Masamune-kun, Mushoku Tensei and My Happy Marriage. Also, dub of Oshi no Ko. And Sacrificial Princess but that one I wouldn't recommend at all, it's a ridiculous female power fantasy. Oh, and Rent A Girlfriend, but that one is terrible simp shit, though I think it depicts the average fatherless (as in hasn't had a healthy father figure) zoomer quite well.
No, he immediately loves being a vending machine even before he sees another person because the isekai is just set dressing for a show about how much the author loves vending machines.
tranime thread
Make way for best girl.
>pick a random isekai
>JRPG gameplay garbage
it's time for anime to die
No.
Rimuru sexo
Sexo with riumuru
that's a man
I like poopooki shitsei but also jabokngi nippon shikokujingu. I love wombokai shumbuken hadouken so much, my favorite series is Gurenn Lied Kriegenwaffen Jormungandr Prolapse: Random German Word Shinshinsen
Kino
I agree mushoky but with picrel you have bad taste and I'm sorry to whoever comes to anime through that
most isekai is trash but there are genuine gems out there if you power through all the trash
I too like isekai, but I'm still able to realize that all of them are shit, without exception.
Tanya is especially bad, him being a little girl is never relevant in any way, and he even behaves physically as if he is a man; easily lifting other men with one arm and performing other impossible feats of physicality for is ostensible female form, etc. I think someone needs to be really, really sick in the head to not realize that Tanya is e-girl porn. You can be sure the entire character is just an excuse to come up with scenes where this little girl gets fricked in the pussy.
