>>154839730
This is like Death March but with less lolis
>>154839730
Kill me
How original is this?
>Isekai harem
Very original.
>>154840477
It's generic af and there is no plot to speak of, it's basically about a guy who wanders around a foreign land with Google Maps getting into SoL hijinks.
>>154839730
Wow smarthphone will be one of the pioneer the rise of isekai genre
>>154840598
How long until the guy becomes OP?
>>154840598
Why do you so upset and you're not saying the truth.
>>154840598
>it's basically about a guy who wanders around a foreign land with Google Maps getting into SoL hijinks.
That sounds great actually
>>154840752
The Gabriel, Maiddragon and Lel Bicycle Club fans will
Smartphone is very comfy isekai series. I doubt people would'nt like it.
>>154840789
I mistyped it. i meant people would like it.
Now we wait for the PV
>>154839730
>Smartphone
>>154840598
>getting into SoL hijinks
sounds like another Konosuba to me, tell me more.
>>154839730
Kist gemeroc ,y sjot il
>>154840981
The MC is more alpha than kazuma, though.
>>154840639
The MC at first cannot speak their language and not able to use any magic. He need to learn all of it.
>>154840484
Why do people like to become a contrarian. Are you saying this every season?
Where is the hype for the rise of isekai genre?
>>154840598
>guy who wanders around a foreign land with Google Maps getting into SoL hijinks
Picked up.
>>154840477
It is quite original because it not your typical MMORPG isekai. It is fantasy with harem element.
Why this? Why can't they choose the Lazy King, an isekai that's actually cool?
>>154841653
What is lazy king anyway?
>>154841682
An isekai story about the demon world
MC reincarnates into a sloth demon, gets lucky and manages to laze around so much that he became the first demon lord of sloth. Demon lords are crazy strong, but are consumed by sin so the main character is really lazy to exert power
The setting is pretty chaotic
The novel focus on other characters too, and they are the main appeal.
>>154841837
I don't like it. I don't see being a lazy is a good trait for an MC.
>>154841922
He hates it himself. As I said the main appeal is in it's side characters, and when the main character does something its treated as an OH SHIT moment because he's really really strong. Although his powers aren't suited for fighting (and a majority of them are passives and directed for continuing sloth) he is so strong that these abilities are god awful strong.
>>154841997
You're joking right even the WN only have sixteen chapter.
>>154839730
I hate this.
>>154842168
Why do you so edgy?
>>154841682
An LN that never fucking gets updated.
>>154840477
Killed by truck-kun reborn with a cellphone that just works and can connect to the internet and has infinite battery for some reason and gets himself a harem of 2hu clones
About as generic as it comes
>>154842212
The author is lazy as fuck so who cares?
>>154842235
It is not killed by truck kun mr crossboarder kun
>>154839730
I think I remember trying to read this one.
I dropped it pretty early on, when the author had a character that said the sfx of himself munching on food the MC bought him, while also having the sfx in the narration.
and the sfx was repeated basically every other word.
So ~70% of the chapter was different eating sound effects.
>>154842150
While it has 16 chapters they are honest to goodness long as hell
Just read and finish the Gluttony Lord part.
>>154842286
IT is comfy anime so the MC character and his interaction should be the main focus.
>>154842312
Sixteen chapters are not enough for anime adaption.
>>154839730
>fucking smartphone gets an anime
oh christ.
its just a neverending deluge of shit.
>>154842380
You'd be surprised.
>>154842427
I won't be surprise Adapting that short is not good for bussiness.
>>154839730
>This gets an anime
>Not Lazy Dungeon Master
>Not Dungeon Defense
>Not Evil God Average
>Not Kumo
Why are nips such fucking retards?
>>154842427
The adaption would not be good, trust me.
>>154842502
All of your title are not good enough and not even a harem series. Smartphone is far better in quality.
>>154840639
About 1/3 of the way through the first LN.
So probably by the end of the first episode.
The truly stupid thing is that the smartphone is barely relevant. It could be interesting if access to our world's knowledge was his only power, but no, he's OP as fuck in every way, and if being the only person in the world able to use every school of magic wasn't bad enough, there's one school where people make up their own spells and nobody else can ever use them, except MC, who learns them by reading their names in a book.
>>154842485
For the love of god read the chapters. It's 16 longass chapters.
>>154842576
Nah it is not even a harem series logically adapting that short has no value in marketing.
>>154842614
It is a harem, though MC doesn't care that much about it.
>>154842576
>>154842614
Overlord was adapted out of 14 chapters.
>>154842574
Smartphone is a godlike OP. How come it is not relevant
>>154842649
Overlord is on going thus has marketing value.
>>154842650
>How come it is not relevant
He mostly uses it as a map and just reads the news of Earth.
He never uses it to look up technologies or knowledge that can be introduced to the world.
Later on, he enchants it so that it can autotarget people he doesn't like with magic because he doesn't want to put any effort into his fights.
>>154842675
There is a potential part 3 though with an Evil God Church, and an LN is being published too.
>>154842650
Because the author is a fucking hack, that's why.
I can't believe this is getting an anime, it's on the level of billions of other generic power fantasy web novels.
>>154842421
You're doing this every season?
>>154839730
>After a freak accident involving some lightning winds up zapping him dead, 15-year-old Mochizuki Touya wakes up to find himself face-to-face with God. “I am afraid to say that I have made a bit of a blunder...” laments the old coot.
>But all is not lost! God says that he can reincarnate Touya into a world of fantasy, and as a bonus, he gets to bring his smartphone along with!
>So begins Touya's adventure in a new, anachronistic pseudo-medieval world. Friends! Laughs! Tears! Inexplicable Deus ex Machina! He sets off on a journey full of wonder as he absentmindedly travels from place to place, following whatever goal catches his fancy. The curtains lift on an epic tale of swords, sorcery, and smartphone apps!
wtf man
>Fuyuhara launched the In Another World With My Smarthone series in 2013 on the Shōsetsu-ka ni Narou ("Let's Be Novelists") website
WTF MAN
>>154842698
He use it to trace tons of enemy and target it from any place. It is like deathnote but far stronger.
>>154842702
It has its appeal by being comfy harem anime.
>>154839730
And people wonder why sales are dropping.
>>154842700
LN? If it is harem and not popular usually because the MC. I think asexual and lazy MC is not preferable.
>>154842840
You're very wrong anime has reach the era of another anime booming again.
>>154842848
Nah it's written really well. I am the harem type of guy and this story is unusually refreshing. It's chaotic, and it takes the demon lord trope to a whole new level.
>>154842700
Let it go short LN is not profitable.
>>154843027
Dude anything is profitable as long as it has a good premise. This does, and it plays it so well.
>>154839730
I hate this genre so much.
>>154842700
If the author decides to write more Lazy King then it might be possible if it gains more popularity.
But right there's almost no reason to do something like that. What would be the point of the adaption? And barely anyone cares about some random short LN.
>>154839730
are you fucking serious?
I tried reading this, he doesn't even use the fucking phone. He just builds a harem in the most generic way possible.
>oh hey those girls are being picked on I better butt in
>turns out they're they're super strong and instantly fell in love with me
>of course I'm the strongest because god said so
>>154843147
Animes are supposed to advertise LN's. If it got one it would technically be advertising it
And if anyone "barely" cares you make them care. .
>>154843148
Why do you lie now ?
>>154842742
I'm thinking of giving up anime.
>>154843193
Use your logic, caring only a one volume of LN is a waste of marketing and bad marketing.
>>154839730
>RICE CULTIVATION
>FLOWER IN EACH HAND
>I'M THE BEST, JUST THE BEST
>>154843238
Are you saying this every season?
>>154843280
No I had the thought a few days ago.
Do you think I should?
>>154842742
>Fuyuhara launched the In Another World With My Smarthone series in 2013 on the Shōsetsu-ka ni Narou ("Let's Be Novelists") website
>Not knowing about narou in 2017
>>154843206
fine, he uses the phone to look up a cake recipe, everything else is solved with his infinite mana and strength.
>>154843253
Dude each chapter is a lengthy read. It could easily make a 12+ adaptation.
>>154842502
I'd love to see an Evil God Average anime. It was pretty neat.
>>154843302
I dunno it happens everyday. It is not uncommon battle harem being rampant in anime series has been common occurence.
>>154843327
You are wrong he can search ANYTHING and TARGET ANYTHING using his smartphone.
>Protagonist is reborn in the body of a baby
>They possess full motor function almost immediately.
>Before their first birthday they are spamming magic and executing bandits
Justify this shit.
>>154843341
You're making things up. it is just a standard content for one chapter.
>>154843394
yeah, a plot device that every other isekai protagonist has in the form of a HUD or magic.
are you really defending this shit?
>>154843270
>RICE CULTIVATION
Aren't potatoes much better than rice unless you live in a tropical climate with shitloads of water?
>>154843302
Drop anime and never come back.
>>154843460
Japanese protagonists always cultivate rice as soon as possible for no reason.
either that or there's a grain suspiciously like rice that can only be imported from [insert a random language's pronunciation of Japan]
>>154843460
And also shitloads of low skilled labor.
>>154843455
It is depend on his level and only for human i think not anything. i only read until a bit less a quarter of the story. I think that is good thing you know the series is all about confy setting not demon extermination,
>>154843460
>SUPERIOR JAPANESE CULINARY CULTURE
>HAMBURG STEAK
>SOY SAUCE
>>154843532
i meant by level his improvement to learn things because i think this one has no status game level.
>>154843562
The one where the MC makes tons of different pork recipes for his amazoness waifu was pretty good.
Even though it completely ignored the reasons why wild boar meat tastes terrible, in favor of the 'drain the blood' meme.
>>154843404
Isekai baby is not your standard of normal babies.
>>154843652
Wild boar meats are so stink i heard.
You people are all gonna be so tsundere for this show. You'll bitch about it while secretly googling for merch of your new waifu
>>154843652
>The one where the MC makes tons of different pork recipes for his amazoness waifu was pretty good.
Name please
>>154843652
started out okay, recent chapters seem like it's going back on the isekai rails.
>>154843127
People liking re: zero and konosuba. It is literally from the same genre.
>>154843302
Yes and fuck off.
>>>/co/
>>154843697
Cooking with wild game
Something like that.
>>154843693
Yes i agree with you. It is the same as re: zero and konosuba but still people will flock of it.
People still pretend to get triggered by mainstream series, is it newfag?
>>154839730
I like the Sakura+Reimu combination.
The one thing I can't really stand in the OP pic is that there's no elf waifu, chocolate goddess or even a monstergirl. Like what the fuck.
If you're going to do wish fulfillment crap then do it right and put in some proper babes. They're all flatties too.
>>154844079
>flatties
Get out
>>154843931
>entire thread is whining and blogging about muh realism
/a/ has been dead for years anon
>>154844079
Creating a good plot and story is not easy. Adding random things would not make a masterpiece on story wrtiting
>>154839730
You are dead, and God give you one wish before you got transported into another world.
What is your wish, /a/?
>>154840598
You just had to make the show sound bad and instead you made it sound fun.
FYI According to the author's note in volume 1 the LN was actually written on a smartphone.
>>154844219
To live a peaceful life.
>>154844228
So?
>>154839730
Twist: They're all traps
How do you react?
>>154844265
Congrats, now you're an edgy loli in magic WW1.
>>154839730
Is that show trying to out-generic reeeeee:zero and memesuba?
>>154844176
I'm trying to be positive right now
>>154844320
It is different approach and appeal because it's more harem element.
>>154840598
Thanks for the hype.
>>154844269
So clearly it is an inspired masterpiece of modern literature for the smartphone generation.
>>154844341
read a manga or play a VN or some vita anime games, we're on our own now
>>154844439
No thanks i'm not into /v/
>>154844469
content runs out that's all anon. this place is beyond saving
>>154844547
You're wrong it is mainstream genre how can the content's run out. That doesn't make sense.
>>154844583
good artists don't grow on trees
>>154844306
Is this disguised lgbt propaganda?
>>154844676
Artist is a secondary story is the primary.
>>154844751
You're part of the problem
>>154844787
You're the problem if you want to see some good picture go to wallpaper.net instead of watching anime.
>>154839730The girls are cute
Can normalfag not getting triggered for every anime they didn't like. Is this even curable habit?
>>154843652
>drain the blood
>rotate crops
>water wheel
>irrigation
Why do these isekai always seem to employ the same set of technological know how when it comes to playing Civilization with isekai inhabitants?
>>154844983
Copying each others work.
Same reason why western fanfics are filled with "Evil Dumbledore" and "Naruto Civilian Council" bullshit.
One person puts it into their LN after doing some cursory research on the subject, then everyone copies them without question because researching things is hard and boring.
>>154844983
Why not?
Relax guys why do you even need to shitpost something not even airing until the end of next season?
>>154844956
It's called ignoring things you don't like.
https://twitter.com/DistantValhalla/status/844079619099807744
Oh, this was the LN steiner was officially translating. Wonder if he'll sub the anime too.
>>154844983
Of course because the MCs are just a teenagers?
What if /a/ make a Webnovel and it gets adapted into an anime?
>>154845130
He said he will try to sub it by contacting CR. If the trip guy is actually steiner.
>Mayonegg
>Soy sauce
>Rice SUGOI
>Cheats
>Harem with at least 1 slave
Is there even one Isekai that doesn't have at least 3 of these?
>>154845242
Yeah Isekai Smartphone doesn't have any of that.
>>154845242
Konosuba has zero of them.
>>154845242
Smartphone doesn't have it so?
>>154845282
Author probably hate mayoegg and soy sauce.
>>154845123
It is actually easier just because it's only need to ignore the thread or the discussion.
>>154845242
Cheats or advanced knowledge about specific things are the main points of modern isekai, though.
Not really cheats, but even Konosuba has it. Kazuma crafts modern stuff to be sold in the fantasy Australia.
>>154845242
most of them
>>154845190
It was, my tripcode hasn't changed since 2011.
Glad this finally got announced, it was hard to keep my mouth shut about it.
>>154845175
Why not?
>>154840421
Not really. Death march is more into battle in the beginning of the series and i like this MC more, imo.
>>154842702
I read all of volume 1 and it didn't feel like a power fantasy.
alright boys, how many hits does it get on the power fantasy isekai bingo.
>>154846108
>using sage
If you don't like it don't need to force yourself.
>>154845334
Kazuma wasn't even planning on doing that until Vanir read his mind and asked him to whip something up for a business venture though.
>>154846108
Isekai Smartphone only hits 5 of those.
Wow. This was one of the series that did not need an anime adaptation. It was so terrible I actually dropped it and I read a lot of terrible isekai shit. This is what I remember.

It's like the author didn't even try to be original.
What's with the "the oni race have Japanese culture" isekai meme anyways? I've seen it in multiple series including Mushoku Tensei and Re:Zero.
>>154846496
You've made up a few of those points.
>>154846496
>Cooking with soy sauce is super awesome culinary delicacy worthy of kings
Then is raw egg with soy sauce over rice the cuisine of the gods?
>>154846504
>including mushoku tensei and re:zero
i don't know about mushoku tensei but im pretty sure theres an entire country influenced by a japanese guy in re:zero.
im not surprised about the oni wearing kimonos in the least.
>>154846496
All your points are wrong. Are you certain you're not reading something else?
>>154846496
I've read Volume 1 and all of those points you've made are exaggerated or made up.
>>154846496
Most of your post is bullshit.
>Reincarnated, cheat, yadayada
Fair, but that's kind of the standard for this type of story.
>Sell clothes because gym clothes are an artifact to the other world people
Wrong. He sells his school uniform because he meets a fashion designer. The point is that kind of clothing has NEVER been seen in their world before, so the fashion designer wants to buy the garment from him since it's so unusual.
>Some random girls are getting bullied, let's spend most of my money on saving them
He saves the twins from getting harassed by shattering the object the thugs are trying to take and then paying for the damages.
>Apparently I have all of the magic elements super strong even if normally people are limited to 2 or 3
Valid, but the reason his spell effects are so strong is actually explained later on.
>An out of place samurai appears that makes no sense. Also samurais are super strong because muh japanese 1000+0 times folded katana of superior japanese workmanship
She's not out-of-place and her presence is explained properly. She's not any stronger than any of the other heroines.
>Cooking with soy sauce is super awesome culinary delicacy worthy of kings
This doesn't happen.
I don't think you actually paid attention to it when you read it.
>>154846655
He doesn't getreicarnated being reincarnated mean he become baby again so it is not standard reincarnation it is more like re life.
>>154839730
Arifureta 1000 times better than this shit.
Well, Japan always surpass the limit.
>>154846753
Yeah he just gets spawned into the new world with his body as it was at time of death.
>>154846762
>>154846753
i think the word you're searching for is "Transported"
>>154846785
Not technically because he actually died on Earth, his body in the other world is a new body.
>>154846808
fair point.
i guess that would make it a start over in another world.
>>154846785
Spawn or re life is more correct because transported mean he was still alive to begin with.

When will this Isekai WN > Anime Fad ends?
post comfy isekai with no harem
>>154846845
It's adapting from the LN, not the WN.
>>154846504
Aren't oni a type of yokai widespread in Japanese folklore? That would explain it.
Also in MT are you talking about those ogres? Because there's nothing japanese about the demon race itself. Though they're slowly trying to advance their lifehood and society by incorporating some of the human techniques and customs in their lifehood. Even Atofe.
>>154846868
It is not that different
>>154846931
The LN has two additional chapters per book.
>>154839730
Is this Kei-Ai?
>>154846953
No, keitai is ancient artifact compared to smartphone.
>>154846948
Not like it is matter because adaption will not be 100% faithfull adaption. It has lots of girls so it is high chance they will be skipping unimportant plots.
https://twitter.com/DistantValhalla/status/844109483710267392
Looks like steiner's gonna be interviewing the author.

>didn't sub C;C

Steiner pls
>>154839730
>that bottom girl
Zakuro?
>>154847273
I didn't have a choice with C;C, lad. They gave that to Adam, who's probably translating the game.
I'd still at least like to sub this one since I'm the official translator of the source material. Plus I know you might accuse me of shilling here but I legitimately like the laid-back feeling of the story.
>>154845382
Do you think Death March and Isekai Smartphone are the beginning of a trend of the licensors deciding to flog out a LN series to the West before instead of after an anime adaptation, to try and squeeze out more internationalbucks as domestic growth slows? Or are they flukes?
>>154847329
I can't speak for a rule, but I will say that the JP side did contact us asking us to localize it and the reason we're translating a whole volume every 6 weeks is to have enough of the source material out in English before the anime lands. They definitely wanted to build a following, but J-Novel Club isn't particularly well-known in the west (and the LN medium isn't especially popular either) so I'm not sure about the impact it'll make.
>>154847308
You could've sub it with WhyNot though. Are they not available at the moment?
>They gave that to Adam
Huh, didn't know about that.
looks like autistic trash
>>154847383
I did ping WhyNot about subbing C;C this season but they didn't really have the time for it and to be entirely honest I don't really have time to do fan stuff either. Really busy year coming up in regards to titles and translations, my schedule's pretty much packed.
>>154847358
Better hope Western viewers loooove the anime. It better have atmospheric music, backgrounds that look like a Renaissance painting, cutting wit delivered by stellar class voice actors. Or at least one or more of those because generic transportation to another world stories are not yet the phenomenon in the rest of the world that they currently are in Japan.
>>154847454
>Or at least one or more of those because generic transportation to another world stories are not yet the phenomenon in the rest of the world that they currently are in Japan
Slavs, gooks, and chinks love that shit.
>>154839730
Oh good more advertising for shitty writers.
I wonder if the studio will actually buy full licensing rights or will they get fucked in the ass like always with an unfinished story.
>>154847505
Taiwan is basically chinkapan, Hong Kong are not far behind. I'm not surprised they love it too. The Anglosphere are, I believe, less impressed.
>>154847542
Seasonal anime hardly completing the story espescially non prime time anime.
>>154839730
So they completely butchered keit-ai into an isekai haremshit?
>>154847682
What?
I remember trying to read this. But the translation was so bad that my ESL brain couldn't process what it was reading.
>>154847796
Try reading the official translation, not machine-translated garbage.
>>154847454
>Western viewers
>caring about VAs
>>154847838
You vastly overestimate the writing in most of these stories.
Google + basic moon is more than enough.
>>154847881
There's a world of difference between these two. Steiner on the left, "fantl" on the right.
>>154847897
I cannot help but feel that a lot of the rhetoric that makes it readable is more of steiners embellishments to make it readable than the original author. Sort of like the old localisations of jrpgs by Ted woolsey.
>>154847944
Maybe, but you've still got shit like "I was close to my grandfather" being misinterpreted as "I was once called an old child". Even if it is a bit of an embellishment, it's still much more pleasant to read.
>>154847944
Anon, I haven't read this series, but just in the first few lines, the fan version misses punctuation, has random capitalized parentheticals, uses "and" between every item in a list, and says "rug with no end" where "endless" would flow better. These aren't even translation errors, the guy just doesn't know how normal English sounds.
>>154847308
>I legitimately like the laid-back feeling of the story
That's understandable. The question is whether the director is capable of creating a series that feels laid back in the "napping under an apple tree in the English countryside with the works of Charles Dickens" sense and not in the "a series so generic it was was practically stamped out of Bakelite in a Guangzhou factory for ten cents a unit" sense.
I do not care about the plot as long as the show is good.
The age of Shakugan no Shana clones has passed. Now is the era of Zero no Tsukaima clones.
>>154847881
Those who 'fantl' isekai WNs/LNs like 99% of them are machine translators, people who barely know English, people who barely know Japanese and people who don't know English nor Japanese.
Just imagine if the writing is already mediocre what kind of garbage will the fantl turn out be?
>>154848451
You're overestimating yourself.
>>154848156
So if the plot is garbage, it can still be good?
>>154848482
What?
>>154839730
Does anybody else thinks that the MC is way cuter than any of the girls?
>>154848500
I'm not into propaganda.
>>154848487
Of course, there are many different types of this. "Dumb fun" (think B movie) can be objectively low quality shows that are still enjoyable for instance.
>>154848614
The problem is that B anime are all the same harem ecchi shit, at least B movies have some creativity.
>>154848635
I've read volume 1 of this and it didn't really give off any ecchi vibes.
>>154848635
Not all, that's my point. There are tons of different varieties, like Ninja Slayer.
>>154847308
What is the process of getting to sub a particular series for Crunchyroll? Do you just send in your resume and ask if you can get assigned to a certain upcoming show? What if it goes to Funimation or Daisuki instead?
>>154848787
I don't know much about the process, in all honesty. I don't even know who'll be handling it just yet. I won't be going through the normal process, I have an inside contact at both CR and Funimation, so I'd ask them to make a case on my behalf. If it doesn't work out it should still be fine, the Japanese asked for the terminology I chose in the LN translation to be regarded as standard anyway.
>>154848663
>no ecchi
>no plot
>no satire
So it has, what? Good feelings?
>>154848905
It has plot, it's just that the first few volumes are the setup phase where the protagonist makes connections and friends in all the major nations while solving minor issues like dragons and government corruption. It's around volume 4/5 that the overarching conflict stuff finally starts to come together.
>>154848968
>It's around volume 4/5 that the overarching conflict stuff finally starts to come together.
Ordinarily I'd consider it unlikely to make it that far without an utter butchering of an adaptation, but perhaps the plot is sufficiently thin to begin with that they can afford that.
Might be cool.
>>154847358
How did you and DxS manage to end up with this gig? Does Sam being an ex-fansubber and ex Crunchyroll translator have anything to do with it? Were you familiar already with this series before translating it?
>>154850348
I had already talked with Steiner when I novel started about translating something and when Smartphone came up with a request to do 4 volumes in 5 months I was like which of my translators is crazy enough to actually do this.
>>154839730
I thought the LN was new?
>>154845175
It'll need to be written in Japanese first though.
>dat pict
Don't tell me it will end at that silly arc where the MC makes demon king can't move (except spin around fovever) because he makes the the area around him's friction becomes 0.
>>154846845
I don't know when this fad will end. But I do know that when it does end, the reason will be because it's being replaced by an even worse fad.
>>154839730
Fake Reimu and Youmu look cute.
>>154846845
If you think about it there aren't that many Isekai anime adaptations. We still get 2-3 battle harems every season but only one isekai show at most. And most of them (GATE, Grimgar, Re:zero, Konosuba, etc) are rather decent.
>>154850593
I remember that arc. He got turned into Slippy G incarnate.
>>154850762
We do get that many battle harems?
Can you name a couple from this or last season?
>>154850465
You guys are all crazy. Keep on trucking. Your investment in this series is the main thing that makes me hope, against my better judgement, that the anime becomes a flyaway success in the anglosphere and drives viewers to seek out the source.
>>154845175
I thought we have Bizarro /a/ for it?

Sorry I just checked anichart, there aren't that many of them recently. There are a bunch next season though.
for a genre that /a/ supposedly hates, isekai sure does get a lot of threads dedicated to it as a broader concept. Even more than battleharems and magic schools.

Is this the lowest point in anime history?

bullshit. Yuna picks up bitches left and right like nobody's business. She operates alone usually.
>>154848821
You might as well be Crunchy's full-time translator while at it.Maybe Chiyo will pick you to translate A;C later.
>>154852898
To be honest, I have no real interest in SVN, and SciADV isn't going to be handled by me or Blick any time soon either. As for working with Crunchy, from what I've heard I think I'd be better off just doing Smartphone as a one-off.
>>154839730
Reminds me of how they pushed Re:Zero(even got the english license first ) wasn't really that popular or selling that much at the time. I do wonder what are the expectations with this one.
It feels like they'll be adapting these rather uknown titles first and then move on to the more popular ones to really rake in cash. Though I guess Death March already got one.
>wives
Does he at least fuck them?
>>154853141
Re:Zero wasn't your typical isekai at all though, no matter how much people might trash on it.
Whereas this is as typical as it gets. It kind of feels like they pulled a Girlish Number and just went "these kind of stories are popular nowadays right? Well just pick one and we'll shill it with some newbie seiyuu and make bank off character albums and merchandise".
>>154853141
>>154853234
The reason this one was picked is because it's Hobby Japan's #1 best seller.
>>154850465
>a request to do 4 volumes in 5 months
christ, did they at least take on some of the risk themselves?

What does this this one bring to the table?
>>154853270

Too bad YP is incapable of getting started in a timely manner. The delay between announcing and actually releasing the first volume of any series is like, what, a year? How does it take them that long to even start?
>>154853801
I don't know. Steiner's speed on this compared to Yen Press on average is crazy. I think he's translating 2.7x faster than they do.
>>154853841
Well, YP also have physical distribution to contend with. The actual translation probably only really takes a couple of months, and the other two months are spent typesetting and printing and getting all the books into the trucks and to the retailers.
>>154853632
As much as I dislike Seirei Gensouki from the bottom of my being it would still make a better anime compared to this.
>>154853887
Why don't the author make sequel to mushoku tensei and make rudeus reincarnated again. It is for the best also profitable instead of adding random chapters.
I'm still mad at what shitty directing did to Antimagic Academy.
I hope Death March anime is utter crap that everyone hates.
If good battleharems get bad adaptations, bad isekai shouldn't be allowed to get good adaptations.
>>154854096
>Rudeus gets reincarnated as his own granddaughter
>>154854096
Because he's not even done rewriting the original story in LN format. Redundancy is just his way of dicking around until that finishes.
>>154854164
I'm not into genderbender. I'm very tolerant as person but i cannot like something i dislike.
>>154854096
He actully finished writing what can be considered as the grand prequel and a setup for the sequel not too long ago.
Depicts what really happened in the begining of the universe, how hitogami tricked the dragon race into destroying all of the other worlds, "helped" the refugees by bringing what little survived in the human world and then he himself finishing off the weakened first generation dragon god after making him fight with his own dragon generals. He also did the typical tap on the shoulder and thanked Laplace for being such a good tool as he was drowning in despair etc.
>>154854204
Making sequel of rudeus would increase the LN popularity by far rather than adding random chapters.
>>154854295
You mean his sone would be in the sequel? i don't dislike it but rudeus reincarnating again would be more unique and more preferable.
>>154854386
Maybe, but Laplace turned out to be a pretty good protagonist so if he does decide to write a new one the MC might not be that bad.
>>154854153
What do you mean. Isekai most of them are battle harem too.
>>154854459
OK, Magic School Battleharems, then.
>>154854458
I respect your opinion i'm not into laplace character not like i hate it.
>>154854634
Magic battle harems are oversaturated and overflow the market. harem VNs also have so much for the setting. It is over competition and new thing need to rise to not becoming monotone.
>>154839730
Where does that throne in centre with girls on the side even come from. I've seen it in so many promos of stuff.
>>154854844
I don't know you can read it yourself it has been translated a lot.
>>154854096
>>154854164
Rudeus reincarnating as any of his descendants would be super awkward considering Sylphie and Roxy would still be alive.
>>154855040
I don't see a problem rudeus may leave them for journey so no awkward moment or have rudeus born not as his descendant and remarry them again.
>>154842574
>>154842650
The smartphone actually becomes extremely relevant from volume 2 onwards. V1 was mostly character introductions and establishing that the kid has been super-buffed both physically and magically by God for the simple reason of "please don't die a second time, I fucked up bad enough the first".
Once he starts Enchanting shit, he does ridiculous things like turning his smartphone's Google Maps app into a satellite targetting system for blasting entire groups of enemies to cinders.
He also enchants his camera to see and hear through walls, and the very first thing he does with it is peep on one of his harem members.
>>154855133
The sequel is supposed to be about Bananahoshi's boyfriend who was cheating on her with the rewind miko anyways.
>>154855185
I don't like it. It is very big gamble and genre change.
>>154855145
To be fair it's accidental peeping.
>>154855196
>genre change
What, from reincarnation to transportation isekai? That's hardly a big jump.
>>154851682
That's way exaggerating hyperbole.
>>154855145
Oh, so he's the super 俺TUEEEEEEE type of character.
Maybe SAOfags will like this then.
>>154842698
>He never uses it to look up technologies or knowledge that can be introduced to the world.
He actually uses it to invent shogi, egg slicers, various cakes, ice cream, bicycles, etc. He starts just casually inventing all sorts of shit once he gets a spell that lets him re-shape any material at will.
In volume 2 he invents the magnifying glass. Mid-battle with a Black Dragon. And then fires 512 spears made of searing light through it which basically kamehameha's a fucking hole through the dragon's chest.
The Interlude chapters are where it shines, though. Beating up gangs of thugs and hanging them naked by their ankles on the main road into town, taking construction jobs only to have to fight waves of Living Armors, hanging out with kings on his days off, and forcing his harem to tag along to Slime Castle so that the slimes can melt everyone's clothes.
They're the sillier parts but they're also the actually good chapters, hope the anime includes them.
>>154855245
Harem isekai to generic shonen is a big genre change.
>>154855319
It's still going to be harem isekai, don't kid yourself.
And MT got pretty fucking shonen in the latter half too.
>>154855314
Isn't the silly plot points are just for the LN to explain.
>>154855347
How so? Bananahoshi boyfriend is a monogamous if not asexual.
>>154855304
Nah he's just a kid who wants to go on adventures. He doesn't go out of his way to play the hero or fight for justice or anything, he just wants to live the chill adventurer life doing Guild quests, but other countries keep dragging him into ridiculous situations like "the king has been poisoned!" or "there's a dragon on the loose!" and he has to take care of it in the span of half a chapter so everyone can shut up and he can go back to chilling with his pet tiger while practicing his magic.
His default spell is basically fucking "make the enemy slip on a banana peel, cartoon style" and it's all he'll use unless he HAS to come up with something else.
>>154855454
Sounds like your average isekai protagonist then.
>oh lol I'm the ultimate cheat existence that can bend reality over my knee but I prefer the quiet life due to my Japanese values so I'm just going to go around eating good food and picking up cute girls and using my immense power to solve their personal problems but refuse to fuck them after they fall head over heels for my dick and maybe accidentally solve a few world crises on the way
Every time.
>>154855454
Isn't his default spell works like naruto because his unlimited chakra. Where small attack can be spammed unlimitedly or replicated like kage bunshin.

Unless you're one of those cretins that think that the sole purpose of an anime is to move BD discs, Konosuba is a roaring success by most metrics. The anime propelled the LN's sales to the literal top of the charts.
