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. |

Job security really sucks when it comes to adventuring these days.

IT started way older than, the earliest i can think off is Aura Battle Dunbine and that was back in 83 and if u look at older fantasy titles, pretty much any story that has the characters go to a fantasy world would be classified as an isekai like alice in wonderland and so on. |

I really wish people would start use something like "Narou-kei" for titles that are similar to Narou isekai because they're also Narou fantasy LN with all its tropes except the isekai one. If there can be "Shonen", "Josei" etc. classification based on "this manga was released in Weekly Shonen Jump" , why can't we use "this LN was first released as WN on Narou" as classification, especially since those LNs share as much - or more - common tropes as shonen or shoujo manga. |

Yup, series that fit the bill did start way earlier but the actual term didn't get coined till then. |

Both claims are wrong. Others have already refuted the Escaflowne bit (the author of Dirty Pair even wrote a novel called "Isekai no Yuushi", or "Hero of Another World", in 1979), but "isekai" literally means "different world". "Sekai" as in "world", and this kanji for the "I". It's a straightforward enough term that it was probably in use to describe secondary-world fantasy long before English-speaking fandom started using it to describe the webnovels they were seeing translated in the mid-2010s. Anyway, I've been busy lately, but I finally updated my spreadsheet with both this and The Cat and the Dragon. |
