Isekai is a highly respectable and rich genre. In the right hands.

Good isekai goes on >>>/lit/.

There's been great isekai anime in the past. If there was ever a time for a revival, it'd be now.

That one's more time-travel than isekai isn't it?

Anyway pic related

Arthurian legend is almost completely made up, so it probably counts as isekai regardless of intent.

>>160226828
Narnia is the archetype for dumb modern kids getting to dominate a fantasy world because of reasons, i.e. the worst kind of isekai.

>>160226901
If you didnt like Narnia you didnt have childhood

Deus ex machina bullshit and inconsistencies within the writing.

It's not even a fucking fucking genre, it's just a trend and you dumbasses mistake it as such and want to play with semantics when it is incorrect.

>x isn't a genre
>it's a trend
wow

>>160226515

It's cool to know that people were reading light novels hundreds of years ago.

>>160227291
Hell, it's more as a setting rather than being classified as a genre where the situation is just one random joe ends up in another world. That's it. It's not even supposed to be a genre yet you fucks want to call it that.

>>160227390
Now this is the correct post if I ever saw one

>>160227373
The word genre can refer to many things, be it the type of writing or the type of plot or the type of setting. If there are enough stories of a certain type that it becomes efficient to give it a category then you might as well call it a genre.

>>160227421
Nope, you are playing with semantics. You can't just determine it by the amount, the more accurate term would be sub-groups or just leading to some Fantasy or Sci-fi. Again, it's just semantics that everyone is mistaking. Bullshit.

>>160227373
>>160227485
By your logic, how is sci-if even a genre? It's just a fantasy setting.
