It may be a passing craze, but it's only just begun. We've got Death March, Shield Bro and Izakaya Nobu coming up next.

I hope there's an Isekai show where the guy (or a group of people) goes to another world but instead of following him/them, the plot follows all the acquaintances/family members left behind in the real world and how they adjust to this person / group of people disappearing from their lives. Hopefully written by a guy who can actually write, as opposed to my disgusting fever dreams that inevitably end up with me re-enacting a similar plot to the end of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (where they travel around the country beating up nay-sayers on the internet who dissed Bluntman & Chronic, not the part where they listen to Morris Day and The Time killing it).

I think they called that one The X Files.

how would that be different from any other unexplained disappearance? i think a good premise is someone returning from their stint as an isekai hero, but without them remaining an invincible magic god. some dude dealing with ptsd, re-entering society after being missing for years, conflicts that can't be resolved with a legendary sword, etc. that wouldn't be much of a power fantasy though, and that is the sole reason the genre is popular at all. gimme the GOD DAMN candy fucked around with this message at 21:01 on Jun 26, 2017 |

Power fantasy by way of being a new iteration of the harem genre, in most cases.

There was .hack//Liminality, the anime that came in box with the original game series. It followed people in the real world trying to solve things in parallel with the plot of the games.

The "B" or "C" plot occasionally refers to the guy/group who left for another world. Let's say that you have 5 "main" characters and one of them gets transported to another world, but instead of the plot focusing exclusively on him/her and his/her trials and tribulations in the New World, it focuses more on the 4 people left behind and the Isekai hero/heroine who gets taken into the New World becomes a deuteragonist/tritagonist. Like how, instead of focusing on the "Power Fantasy", every time the Real World dudes and ladies do a thing of importance story-wise, the "Isekai" dude or lady gets some focus and it shows him either thriving ("gently caress yeah! I can cleave motherfucking dragons in half with my Sword/Scythe hybrid, yo'!") or struggling ("I need to wipe my rear end with WHAT? Urgh!").

A bunch of people get stuck in an MMO, but the show is about the game's developers. They need to release a new update, but they don't know what will happen to the people trapped in the game during maintenance. They want to tweak the balance but they're worried that if they nerf a popular build, people might die

Here's an example that came to mind: Imagine if Quantum Leap was written by Kouhei Kadono (Boogiepop) and we get to follow Al instead of Sam and, while Al does have other matters to attend to, some of his efforts do concern Sam's whereabouts, so the story would focus on Sam at times. It's just not the main focus.

I wish I could say that Mikoshiba's whole shtick was that he's a male dude that acts like a Female Tsundere, but there's much more to his adorably idiocy that I can't honestly bring myself to say that he's just a tsundere. And because I still laugh when remembering what causes this scene:

It's the last week before the season starts in force, so don't forget to vote for which shows you'd like to see in the seasonal stream here! I'll check the votes a final time around 10pm CST this Friday, and finalize the schedule according to that. In the meantime expect a smallish stream this Sunday, July 2 and a larger one on Sunday, July 9. There are a few odds and ends left after that which will get tossed into a stream Friday, June 14 or Saturday, June 15. Temporary schedule will be up tonight or tomorrow.
