That's one reason I'm not open about who I am. It's nice to have a place I can shitpost and have shit flung back at me with no recourse that affects me or my mental. I also wouldn't want people simping. I'm just here to shitpost.

Right?

To be fair, English doesn't really have a specific word for the concept of isekai, despite the fact that the concept itself has always been a popular one. Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz are both isekai.Several weaboo words have made it into the latest oxford dictionary update, including food items and everyone's favorite, isekai

I also find it amusing how some of the Japanese food terms were originally based on English loan words.

Otherworld. Literally literal trasnlation. But that's not how languages work, so yeah, isekai it is.
It's more than just "otherworld" though. Sure you have to 1) get killed 2) reincarnate, but with isekai the following elements are in place
Remember that this tripe sells by the barrel because it is office salaryman escapism
1) You had to have been sad sack in human life
2) never got any, and thus die a virgin
3) you reincarnate in what I can only describe as a Disneyfied and sanitized version of springtime Holy Roman Empire circa XI century with a dash of the potestate italian city states during their mercantile apogee
4) every woman in this fantasy land finds you automatically interesting and or fuckable on sight
5) without exception every day ends in a "tavern" drinking yourself silly, nevermind having the funds to afford such lifestyle
6) if there's magic, it turns into a child of destiny situation

With fans like this, I finally understand why Hexa became an alcoholic.Being a janny wont stop me.
Hexa was an alcoholic long before I came along. But I do appreciate that she doesn't hate/ban me for all the shit I post.
We kind of do already. It's Portal Fantasy. Though, rather than being reborn, it's exclusively about going through a portal, ala Narnia.
Portal fantasy is subset of isekai.
Most are disastrous trash, yep. Internet completely removed editorial filter, and even novels that have some real meat and use isekai as a tool instead of purpose, succumb to coomer trends.
If you want good isekai - read The Wandering Inn.

To deny the Japs their cultural victory. They're supposed to be wearing our blue jeans and listening to the next Taylor Swift songs, dammit. Not us watching the latest Reborn in another world as X and whaling at the next gacha-shit.
I HAVE THE DLC! RELIGIOUS VICTORY THEN! SUFFER MY FLOOD OF GREAT PROPHETS!
wait what do you mean there's no religion victory in this one...? FUCK
Isekai is lesser evil btw. Before it got this popular, trash authors were doing time-travel self-insert history revision for powertrip.
It sells well, it's a good business segment if you are publishing books. A compact, serialized novella with intricately simplified language edited, exquisitely, to appeal to the 25->40 year old single male salaryman segment. If they become mildly popular it will get picked up for a horrible anime adaptation, if it does well you can tie that to a terrible arena-fighter videogame and more OVAs. It would be a shame to let a goldmine go unmined.
