Why does every isekai manga have to have fucking slaves?

Is Japan so beta that they can't imagine girls willingly forming a relationship with them?
>>
>>157693262
In most cases they don't even fuck their own slaves. Japanese "men" are sissies.
>>
Because it's literally another world based on the middle ages, you dumb shit.
>>
>>157693408
You can literally buy a slave right now, from the comfort of your 21st century home.

Just because they fucking exist doesn't mean you have to purchase one.

In case you didn't realize, isekai is the pinnacle of self insert wish fulfillment drivel.

>>157693262
These girls actually outmaneuvered him perfectly though.

They don't want to become sex slaves so they established the terms of their slavery contract themselves and coaxed him into agreeing with it. But as battle slaves they don't need to worry about dying either since MC is an ungodly overpowered motherfucker. It's the best arrangement they could ask for.

Because it is better to enslave criminals and orphans to make use of them instead of throwing them into jail and orphanages that wastes taxpayer's money.

But slaves are commonplace in the other world, if others think it's perfectly okay to own slaves obviously I should adopt the same mindset, because who ever heard of having your own moral compass? Living in harmony with society should always be your number one priority, that's just how us "virtuous Japanese" roll, yep!

>>157693849
What's wrong with owning slaves though?
>>
>>157693846
Same goes for enemies. A life in dignified slavery is better than having your head chopped off because you're of no worth. Of course, the exact system of slavery would depend where exactly you're captive and you might just end up being raped to death by a donkey or something.

>>157693262
>Why does every isekai manga have to have fucking slaves?

Let's see
Most isekai that has slaves have evil nobles, merchants, slavers making a living out and enriching themselves selling manpower.
Most of them are somewhere in the middle ages period which doesn't have the slavery is bad mindset.
Enslaving POWs, criminals, and orphans are a good way to utilize useless and sometimes detrimental undesirables.

>>157693905

It's pretty okay so far if you ignore the fact that the MC is a complete sociopath who didn't bat an eye after murdering a dozen humans, some who were innocent bystanders, with his bare hands. Ignoring that bit of poor characterization, there's nothing too bad about it yet.

This is why isekai with slaves are so fucking stupid.

Except that's is actually realistic?
The slaves know that their lot in life is fucked and they're highly unlikely to ever taste freedom so as soon as they get a master who seems to treat them even slightly better than average they'll go into full boot-licking mode to curry favor and leave a favorable impression so they don't get sold off again.

Isekais are based on medieval fantasy tropes.

Medieval fantasy features slavery, magic, elves, orcs, etc

Are you retarded, anon?
A refugee is not a slave. Refugees can take half their belongings with them as they leave, food, clothes, tools, wealth. Things that can help them start again, or continue their lives. What does a slave have? Where does the slave go? Who do they seek help from? Slaves are almost always branded or marked in some manner, so they'd have to stay hidden and slave hunters would be after them at every step, looking to turn them into a brutal example of what happens to slaves who try to escape. They have no wealth, no food, no clothing, no tools. They may not even speak the local language.
>>
>>157694574
By your retarded logic, civilians shouldn't exist because they'd get caught by human traffickers and sold into slavery.
>>
>>157694451
Even if they were offered to be freed and given money to start over, only a few would risk it.
Being a slave to a strong kind and generous person guarantees security, food, clothing. shelter and immunity from falling into slavery again and sold to a worse master.
>>
>>157694637
This happens to poor civilians all the time, yes.

Not just in isekai but in real life.
>>
>>157694624

>>157694669
>Even if they were offered to be freed and given money to start over, only a few would risk it.
Yeah, sure. When given the choice to continue to be a slave or to start anew with a sizeable amount of money, most people would prefer to stay in bondage and hope master doesn't fuck them over too hard.

Well it's not like they fuck slaves in those shitsekais. It's just the first thing which comes into their minds about medieval age while writing another shitsekai and trying to be "unique and not like others", and add something "new".

Common medieval things like kings, knights, castles are so common in your usual shitsekai that they have to look at something "new" without understanding that it's still same unoriginal shit.

>>157694637

The funny thing, is that in China, which was Japan's primary cultural influence, slavery though practiced by the Zhou largely fell out of fashion following the Qin Dynasty, and unlike other large civilizations in Europe and the Middle East, China was not a heavily slave-based society.

They did have occasional limited use for "slaves", such as eunuchs who were the property of the imperial court, or putting prisoners taken in war into indentured servitude, again the property of the court. But the average person was not allowed to own slaves, multiple emperors issued edicts reiterating the outlawing of slavery, and on the whole China did not have large profitable slave trading institutions like, for example, the Romans did.

Given that it's pretty interesting Japan's obsession with slaves and slavers.

>>157695057
That's a far cry from your average citizen not even batting an eye at the idea of slavery and slave auctions being held in the public square.
>>
>>157695090

>>
>>157693262
the only reason you find the idea of slavery to be offensive is because some kike in public schools pushing a black-victimhood narrative brainwashed you into believing that it's against the rules to own another human being. Never mind the fact that you basically are owned by your parents, by your career, by your government through various forms of social contracts, peer pressure, and other forms of coercion.

It's a subtle form of nationalism, really.

Japanese writers seize on the most cliched, famous faults of historical western civilization, of which slavery is a. biggie, and blow them up to a cartoonish degree in their fictional isekai civilization obviously loosely based off medieval Europe so that their enlightened Japanese protagonists can swoop in and display how obviously superior the Japanese moral fiber is.

>>
>>157693262

Yes, exactly that. It's because they need a reason why the girl wouldn't run the fuck away.

The thinking is that "Oh, she'll like me when she REALLY gets to know me." because no sane woman would stick around the would-be reader without crying rape.

I'll add that slaves have REALLY low standards, too. "Not being beaten" and "not being raped to sleep every night" are miracles for them. You have to understand that the reader is so pathetic, they can't even pretend to be particularly likeable.

It's like being awarded a prize for being Japanese. Or have every girl about to jump on your dick, because you're literally the only man in existence.

>The history of slavery spans many cultures, nationalities, and religions from ancient times to the present day. However the social, economic, and legal positions of slaves were vastly different in different systems of slavery in different times and places.[1]
>Slavery can be traced back to the earliest records, such as the Mesopotamian Code of Hammurabi (c. 1860 BC), which refers to it as an established institution, and it was common among ancient peoples such as the Sumerians, Ancient Egyptians, Akkadians, Elamites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Hattians, Hittites, Amorites, Ancient Greeks, Canaanites, Eblaites, Hurrians, Mitanni, Israelites, Persians, Medes, Kassites, Luwians, Moabites, Edomites, Ammonites, Armenians, Chaldeans, Philistines, Scythians, Nubians and Kushites, among others.[2]

I can't say about Rance, but slavery is the kind of thing that make sense in most settings, even sci-fi depending on the tech level and particularities of travel. If power is decentralized in any way and 'moral' laws can't be upheld or observed to be broken, nothing stops anyone from running their own slave beatboxing ring.
>>
>>157695147
Basically in Imperial China there just wasn't really a great economic need for slaves since labor was in plentiful supply, the major philosophies were all opposed to slavery, and so slaves weren't really seen in noticeable numbers aside from after major foreign conquests when they needed to find something to do with prisoners, and even in those cases they were typically gradually eased out of bondage and into freedom over time.

Big exceptions would probably be the massive use of forced labor by the Qin emperor to build walls and shit, the later use of forced labor to build the Grand Canal, the expansion of slavery by the Mongols when they took over and established the Yuan dynasty (later rolled back by the Ming dynasty) and again by the Manchus when they took over and established the Qing dynasty (they rolled that back later).

Honestly even this wouldn't be that terrible if the writer had any idea how the hell to make the slavery functional. Most slaves are going to be doing hard labor not maid work or the likes. They tend to make the MC too over the top, The slavery too vague, And don't really explain the laws or logic of the setting other then maybe for a page before the hero saved them.

A bit. The main focus of the American Civil War was the expansion of federal powers, attempting to modernize the south (Because industry > slave/agriculture society), breaking up the social stagnation in the south, and a little bit of other stuff.

I wouldn't say the United States fought a war over it. I would say the United States fought a war that had slavery as one of its topics and was used heavily as propaganda to support the Union.

Stop spewing revisionist history please. The Civil War was almost entirely about slavery, every founding Confederate document says so clearly, often multiple times. Pretending it was about the FEDERAL OVERREACH is stupid, because the god damn Confederate Constitution says that every future territory of the Confederacy would be mandated to have Slavery even if they didn't want it. They were exercising more fucking federal overreach in slavery's preservation than the Union had during the entire Abolitionist movement up to that point!

Please explain how slavery was not the main focus of the Civil War when the stated reasons of the states themselves for their secession all included text about the fact that the North was going to take away Slavery as the specific point of contention? Or that the Confederacy's vice president said that the "natural law," that was slavery was literally the cornerstone of the entire nation?

Better yet, don't explain, because your explanation will be bullshit. The Civil War was, in all actual SUBSTANCE, about Slavery, the ideological ether you were talking about was tertiary to that issue. Period.

4. Therefore slave girls immediately fall in love with protag Because He's Kindâ„¢.

People have used religion to justify owning slaves for two thousand years fuckhead. The idea that slavery was God's Will or else HE would have already freed them was a popular one among moral cowards during the American Antebellum period. How many Muslims own ZERO slaves exactly? The answer is most of them, just like by the time of the Civil War most Christians owned ZERO slaves despite them using Christianity to justify their crap.

The religion isn't the problem, its the fucking backwater third-world tinpot governments and cowardly/lazy people who won't get off their asses to do something about it that allow psychos get away with moral evil.

I see you've completely forgotten about the comfort women and various other slaves the Japanese liked having in WWII.

>>
>>157698684
Never mind that, serfdom might as well be nonexistent as far as isekai is concerned.
I've never seen it mentioned even in isekai where the MC is in charge of a kingdom or country.
Every farmer owns their own plot of land and nobles collect their wealth entirely from taxes it seems.

>>157698684
Personal property and ownership can be layered.
In the first place, the societies we see in most Isekai is either Classical or Early Renaissance.

Well, it was about that on the Union side, sure. On the Confederate side it was about preserving slavery. Which is what we were talking about. Also, since the Confederacy attacked first to start the war and the Union remained intact despite their protestations until they did (and REALLY technically the union ALWAYS remained intact because the Confederacy was never recognized as a nation and by legal definition were never anything but an unlawful rebellion being perpetrated by outlaws), I would say the Confederacy's motive is the more prescient one.

You can't call it a shitty harem because people seem to understand the idea that you can't fuck a 2 year old, and I don't really think that it's possible to self-insert into the MC, unless you're really that much of a stereotypical bullied kid.

Even this far, I can't decide if it is.
Progress is very concentrated, with little to no obvious skips to allow background growth. It could do with taking a step back from seeing the MC micromanage everything.

At the latest point of the translation for the novel, the MC is finally in a position to take a breather (background characters are even conspiring in that direction).
>>
>>157699008
To add to this anon's arguments I'd like to point out that the Confederacy actually thought the states has TOO MUCH rights specifically because New York would not allow slaveowners to keep their slaves if they brought them with them into New York. So the states rights argument that gets touted around is entirely bullshit since whether or not they cared about them was entirely based on if it allowed slavery.
Peculiar back then was a synonym for beloved so when the Confederacy calls slavery it's peculiar institution they are meaning that slavery was the core, sacred, and beloved moral of their entire society.

The hips move on their own once you get them started. ( No, seriously, that's why the dude died as he couldn't stop the horse once it got started)

Romans used to have specially trained monkeys and other creatures to rape slaves as part of the entertainment at a colosseum. I don't recall if any were specifically for fucking them to death.
The first recorded serial killer has a myth about her being publicly raped to death by a specially trained giraffe which is false but an entirely believable thing given the stuff romans would get up to.
As an interesting side note of trivia the Ancient Egyptians were apparently world renowned as masters at having sex with crocodiles.

Depends on the kind of slavery. If you happen to be a world respected scholar who has taught the dukes heir for the past 20 years and has any and everything he wants handed to him it's not too terrible especially if you have laws protecting you from physical harm.

There is a difference between Chattel Slavery and other kinds that have existed in history, this is true. The Janissaries were slaves and they basically ran the country at at least one point.

That being said, even if you are a slave with perks and creature comforts and legal protections, I'd argue that its still pretty shitty to be defined by society as being a lesser being than some other beings, and having insurmountable limits placed on your life because of that status as a lesser being.

I'd say it's pretty good. Well above average.
The MC has a personality and goals that aren't just become the strongest, return to earth, or make a harem.
Those are typically the 3 worst reasons to base a novel around and all.

Time progresses in a decent manner (he's about to turn 11 as of chapter 189), although some would consider not growing up faster to be a flaw.

The world has some actual thought given to it as well.
There isn't much in the ways of romance for harem—basically just girls promising to fuck when he becomes an adult—which can be a plus or minus depending on how much you value that.

Overall I just consider it fun to read, though.
The art's also nice.

It wasn't nearly that bad. You had some jackasses certainly. But there was easily cases of nobles helping people out and doing their jobs. It wasn't nearly as over the top as isekai makes it look.

The leader not telling the protagonist he is the leader and giving him advice is one of the most common tropes there is in Japan

>I'd argue that its still pretty shitty to be defined by society as being a lesser being than some other beings

Yeah. Still I can think of far far worse fates to have.

Honestly I kind of wish I could find a novel with this premise. Dude finds himself in another world and has to figure out all the social mores and politics without fucking himself over.

I think "Dude goes to Isekai Slave World and realizes its fucked up so he starts the Abolitionist Movement," would be a better premise.

>But as soon as special snowflake MC shows a little bit of kindness they become so submissive that they will lick his boots clean
Pretty much true about all anime, even the antagonists
>"You will NEVER understand! When I was banned from the public library, only Lord Villain-sama showed me any kindness! That's why, even though I know his ways are evil, I will die for him!"

I'm more kind of thinking the general idea of a Isekai protag actually changing in personality due to being in an entirely other social environment. One of the things they never really really go into is the geopolitical environment and the likes.

Like lets say he starts the Abolitionist Movement. How would he plan on rounding up support? What happens when richer household slaves get annoyed? Does he go all Spartacus instead? Basically most novels like this lacks a lot of political grounding. Even though being from another world they should easily be able to do almost anything from kick starting monopolies to defining germ theory. Novels like this makes the protagonists too static in my mind. I kind of want to see one where both sides wind up changed by interaction. Instead of just the protagonist bull-rushes everyone with cheap powers without anything of themselves changing due to it.
