Wonder when Death March will air though

>>156134300
Hopefully soon.

>>156134300
i love to read isekai crap i follow nearly them all, but death march isnt one, while most isekais seem to be written by 14 year old chuunis, death march seem to be written by a 9 year old chuuni and i have standards.

>>156134300

I'm going to watch everything in a very specific order to help emulate the feeling of being transported to another world.

>>156135389

>current japan sucks so hard even fictional characters want to leave

i know this feel

>>156132360
Harem on the left looks boring as fuck.

>>156132360
Restaurant isekai sounds comfy as all fuck though. These stories about worlds getting connected by a single door/gate are far more interesting that just a single dude dying and getting reincarnated into another world.

>>156135747
Reading Steiner likes it.

I think I just came up with a brilliant idea. What about Isekai Isekai? Characters from a fantasy world get transported into another different kind of fantasy world. Wait, that's just Tales of Symphonia, isn't it?

>>156132360
I don't know what right is supposed to be but it looks interesting.

>>156136984
"The original story centers on a restaurant called "Youshoku no Nekoya" (Western Cuisine Cat Restaurant), which is located on the first basement floor of a building at a corner of a shopping district near an office area. While it normally feeds salarymen, there is a secret in Nekoya. Every Saturday when the shop takes a day off, Nekoya is teeming full of "special customers." For the office workers, it is a familiar place with familiar dishes, but for these Saturday customers — "people from that world" — it is nothing but cuisine never seen or heard before."

It sounds fun.

>>156132360
>Adapt some of the most blandest narou works you can find after seeing the previous sucess.
I don't know man is this going to be the very first time a narou based LN adaption doesn't sell?(except death march ironically because of the autistic loli crowd)

I fucking love isekai and I blame The Gods Must be Crazy series for it.

>>156137049
Smartphone is supposed to be Hobby Japan's bestseller. That might sell if it has a good director.

>>156135820
There is a novel about Roman architect finding a way into modern Japan, so he uses it to make project of unique bathhouse in his world.

>>156137331
>supposed to be Hobby Japan's bestseller
Where is this mentioned? Just curious since the only thing that was mentioned in some of the news is that it broke 170 000 printed copies or something since 2015.

>>156137632
That's the thing. 170,000 copies is bestseller-tier in Hobby Japan. It shows how terrible HJ is as a publisher of LNs.

Honest question here:

Why bother?
Do they really need to dothat shitty asspull for making the MC a mobile mary sue?
Even "i wope up one day and god made me a god myself because he is too sick of the isekai bullshit" is better

>>156137669
Huh, well I glanced at their lineup and its not
really surprising.
Though some of the stuff is fairly new. Yaritsukai might give them give them some 円 later on.

>>156138113
uchi no musume is legit good, too bad it goes the usagi drop route later on.

I wonder if the stories would hold up without the isekai nonsense.

>>156138216
Theoretically you could write the mecha one as being about a genius kid mechasexual without him needing to be a gunpla nerd from our world.

>>156138216
smartphone one is just a shitty gimmick, of course the story doesn't work without the smartphone, and if you gave a smartphone to a native of the fantasy world it would still count as isekai a bit since you're introducing something of our world to another.
restaurant's entire plot revolves around sharing a restaurant with both worlds.

>>156138216
Isekai is not inherently bad you know.

>>156138926
>tfw writing my own comfy isekai as we speak

No joke. I'll definitely watch the restaurant one.
And maybe the mecha one depending on how much a cute fucboi the MC is.

>>156138926
it's not bad, but it's a tool that makes it really easy to make awfully bad stories. it's like a feminist, one feminist might end up doing something good, but the overall majority are fucking shit people.

>>156132360
>another self insert faggot anime

>>156132360
So either harem, mecha, or SoL.

Yeah I'll take the SoL.

>>156138964
The problem next to the writers in LNs and Isekai is that they set low standards instead of high ones, and it doesn't help fads increase what gets shitted out.

You get a lot of shit Isekai pumped out with a few gold ones in them.

>>156138964
That's kind of unfair to the original feminists who were fighting for concrete things like suffrage and equal pay, not "microaggressions".

They're ALL the same shit.

I welcome our new overlords may they reign supreme for the next 5 years or so.

Wish they adapted something more interesting like oroboros records or if they go with harem adapt a proper series where the MC gets to bang them like that white kingdom dude. The normal formula is getting old.

>>156141450
Yea Youjo Senki, Re:Zero, Grimgar and Konosuba for example were all the same shit. Fuck off.

>>156136852
Steiner has to like it, he's the translator.

>>156141882
Had he read it before he signed up to translate?

>>156141578
Grimgar was great at depicting the struggle of working your way up from nothing. It threw all that development away when it decided to give the protagonist a supapowa which allowed him to defeat that rodent in the mines.

Re:Zero is what it is. Either you're an autismo who thinks its top shelf isekai or you understand just how dumb and cringe inducing it is. Even the girls in that narrative not only act but also look completely generic.

Youjo is dumb edge shit which appeals to man children like you.

Konosuba is alright, though its play off the isekai genre is arguably the least funny and entertaining portions of the story.

Is there a good isekai series?

>>156142290
>Grimgar was great at depicting the struggle of working your way up from nothing.
it was fucking retarded considering no one else struggled against shitty ass goblins
the other people who came there at the same time were completely fine

>>156142589
Smartphone's actually pretty good, it undergoes a massive genre shift around volume 5-6 and the story goes to some interesting places. Doubt the anime'll get that far though.

>>156142589
Tate no yuusha

MC brings nothing with him and the fact that hes from another world is so irrelevant that its almost never brought up

>>156142589
Yes, look for any isekai that predates Mushoku Tensei

>>156142290
I've literally never read anything like Youjo senki when it comes to war and military depictions in LNs or in anime for that matter. Just for that its probably better than your favorite anime which is probably shit by the way, faggot. The author really did his research.

>>156142793

Nah I like them all. They're better than like 90% of what we get nowadays. I hope the isekai train never stops.

Your net transparency is pretty high, so I guess you're only about 20% shilling.

This sounds good, The smartphone was sounds the worst, When I read the summary I don't even know why it got adapted it honestly sounds retarded from the get go.

>>156132360
Very good, more isekai adaptions lead to even more isekai adaptions. Must not stop untill the anime medium is fully isekaified. Animu must become equivalent of 'isekai'.

What the fuck is Alphapolis doing after Gate though? For somebody who's sucking out everything and killing narou they sure are passive.

>For somebody who's sucking out everything and killing narou they sure are passive.

>>156154145
They have a practice to make the authors delete whatever they pick up to publish at narou. Worse thing is they don't really edit anything in the LN ver, just copy/paste most of the time.

>>156154090
Shiro no Koukoku Monogatari
Re Monster
The New Gate
Tsuyokute New Saga
Dungeon Seeker

Those are their top ones, they should be getting anime soon.

>Shiro no Koukoku Monogatari
Will be surprised it does.That's been out since 2011. Never really took off.

Isekai feels like an half-assed genre, either go full sci-fi or fantasy. Its a really lazy way to make the MC special/OP cause he's from the future/he's read lots of novels trope and it doesn't really contribute much to the story beside some half-assed jokes about the MC being self-aware of certain cliches.

Yeah, to be honest that drive to understand and improve on the knights could totally come from someone that came from that world. I'm sure the isekai part was just to follow the trend. I don't recall the fact that the MC is from another world shows up a lot after the first few volumes when it ramps up into crazy territory. To be honest, he's an ace pilot gear nut, but he doesn't feel that OP compared to most MC's of this genre. Especially when on average they have world breaker abilities.

>>156138949
