I think I hear Bender coming into the chat...

"Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own adventurers party. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the party."

This is a whole subgenre. There are other some fairly prominent titles along this line which haven't even been picked up for adaptation yet (like Roll or Die).

Bandai Namco posted the trailer in their "Isekai" YouTube channel. When I read the premise, turns out it's not isekai. Might as well rename it into "Fantasy Channel".

"Isekai" in Japan really means otherworldly fantasy, which means stuff like Frieren and Delicious in Dungeon are isekai. "Isekai" in the West is reincarnated/summoned/transported into another world like the Chronicles of Narnia or Jumanji.

Seems like your classic Banished premise, though the cast is solid.

I don't know where you heard that from but isekai literally translates to, "Portal Fantasy" and started with Escaflowne. It is not a catch-all term for fantasy in general. Its a very specific term. Its more common to see the opposite of what you said where here in the west the term gets misconstrued for all modern fantasy anime post like 2015ish.

The poster certainly knows where the money comes from. (Cynical humours take).

Could be engaging if its focused more on developing a hero through difficulty rather then just being really really strong with hot girls. (Giving it a small chance take). Or even if its an OP protag if he's got some actual charisma it could be okay.
