I was a lapsed anime fan through the 2010s and it's incredible to me that there's still enough stories out there to keep churning out so many isekai stories every season. This bubble has to burst eventually, right?

Not really, at some point we may get less of them but it is probably a permanent genre by this point with atleast a few anime every season.

Honestly after reading various Korean webnovels and webtoons, it feels like there is a very large untapped amount of isekai stories. While obviously there are still plenty of poor stories, there are quite a few that simply feel better and more interesting than what I've been seeing coming out of the Japanese market of late.

The bubble won't burst, it will simple fade into the background as another trend takes hold, and everyone will complain about that one. Before Isekai, there was 'Moe", and everyone complained about it too at its height.
On topic through, I like the Water Magician light novels and manga, kinda surprised it is going anime now. Didn't think there was enough material for a full season. Perhaps there is a significant gap between the english light novels and the japanese light novels.
