KomradeX posted:Crunchyroll Confirms Testing A.I. for Subtitling I hope there's pushback from normal people over this, because stuff like whining over the Unicorn Overlord translation doesn't play well outside of your dumb reactionary spaces, but this sucks. Anyway, posted this somewhere else, but its very dire that a lot of isekai involves a guy dying, reincarnating (thus proving the existence of an eternal soul or at least continuation of consciousness following death and thus proving the monotheistic afterlife as false), and then winding up into what was in-setting a consumer product's fantasy world. That is existentially terrifying to me, the idea that all fiction is in fact a real world and that you could get stuck in loving Berserk if you're unlucky and that all the insane people on twitter are correct when they tell you that characters can't consent and therefore writing them having sex is morally wrong, but these isekai guys LOVE IT. They love being in their favorite 7000 yen video game, where all the metaphysics are based off the design of like a dozen really old Japanese dudes and the code of hundreds of overworked young men. Whirling has issued a correction as of 01:49 on Mar 2, 2024 |

Are there any isekai's where instead of being the Chosen Hero with an elf harem, the protagonist gets reincarnated as some lovely peasant and gets to learn about life without central heating or plumbing or antibiotics

Lots of time spent doing laundry by hand with their rapidly disintegrating sole set of clothes that they have no money to replace. They live in an uninsulated barn with no plumbing sleeping on straw. Maybe things change in the LN but the whole show is basically about them being trapped in a failure spiral.

It's quite good

"Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash" is one where the protagonist fights, but there are a bunch of other isekai-d people who are employed as a sort of militia (and have also lost their memories of their Earth life). They have no special powers or anything (and the protagonist is only of middling talent) and generally join the militia just because they have no idea how else to survive. It's a bit of an exception in terms of attempting a "realistic" depiction of "fantasy party-based combat."

is Jin an isekai? it's about a modern doctor getting sent to tokugawa-era japan having to invent basic foundational medical techniques to even start helping people. also the author put up the translations for free on his patreon because someone might find the medical knowledge useful

I don't think it's humanly possible to translate Nisioisin without heroic levels of substance abuse, and I could do that poo poo as an enthusiast but it sure ain't profitable officially so I feel where the guy was coming from.

I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level I didn't finish it, but conceptually it was my favorite idea of what an isekai should be.

I’ve been reading Komi Can't Communicate. When they introduced Ase and her quirk, Ase is sweaty, I thought the author was really scraping the bottom of the barrel trying to come up with memorable one off characters. But then Ase became a pretty prominent character with complex compelling relationships with Isagi (Isagi is a perfectionist) and Naruse (Naruse is a narcissist), and it's like, drat you're pretty good at coming up with these high school weirdos. So now they introduced this new character and I can only be like 80% sure she's going to stay as a one note joke character.

I'm gonna give it the benefit of the doubt and say its because its trying to foreshadow that these are all a bunch of teenagers stuck in the game, but its still real awkward.

I'm thinking about the Isekai called The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You The two different reviewers who put that on their year-end list swore up and down that each of the girlfriends was a multidimensional character. I do like wholesome romance...
