The Korean webtoon Trinity Wonder is pretty much that premise.

Is there one where they summon an anarcho-communist kid by mistake and instead of feeding their forever-war against the demons he kickstarts a revolution? I love the naming convention and the character designs for most of the characters, especially Archduke Firedragon, the Giant species, and the mechanical race. Honestly I'm rather flabbergasted that it took a series with a premise of "demon queen negotiates with the hero by showing him the statistics and beneficiaries of war with graphs and stuff beyond simply good vs evil" and turned it into a long-term, fantastic political story(with a ton of cheesecake)

You're thinking of Knights and Magic. Heavy Object is the "Attack On Titan by way of Metal Gear with a side of shadow of the colossus" show by the Raildex guy and is almost certainly not an Isakai. Shame the anime is hot garbage. By the time it turned out everything was caused by Basicaly the Gamelons I refused to give a gently caress anymore.

Noah's Notes first chapter is out. Kind of an interesting setup that really seems like a spin on Dr. Stone's concept. Gyaru stereotype high school girl pretty much doesn't give a poo poo about school and her plan is basically to get married and squeeze out a couple kids and have a happy life that way. She finds a strange artifact on the way home from school and snapchats it, then professor protagonist Noah shows up and basically kidnaps her. Upon learning of her shunning of all things scholarly he gets sufficiently annoyed that he drags her on an archeological dig to show her what that artifact she found was. And this big twist? As it turns out, in 2022 AD humanity is somehow destroyed, the remains of civilization sink into the earth, and somehow- time RESETS to 100,000 years ago and everything repeats. The artifact was a key leading to a buried, identical version of the part of Tokyo they were in. Time is looping, and Noah's mission is to figure out what the gently caress happens in 2022 and prevent the next loop. Fabricated fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Mar 12, 2018 |

Jujutsu Kaisen revealed a bit more of it's general emotional hook/lesson/theme/whatever which is pretty interesting I think for a shounen. By emotional hook/lesson/theme I mean the sort of core I guess driving things that isn't the premise?? I'm at a lack of words for it. Like, Horikoshi for example says that the big theme of My Hero Academia is the student/teacher relationship. One Piece focuses a lot on dreams. Noah's Notes seems to be appreciating history for what it can show you about the future, etc. etc. There's usually a theme like that outside of the usual WSJ "Friendship, effort, victory" thing. Jujutsu Kaisen's is basically, "How to die well." The protagonist's grandfather passes away in the first chapter and his last lecture to him is basically, "Live the kind of life so that when it's your time to die, you're surrounded by people you love and whom love you." The nasty curse he consumed was part of a larger one, and he's a rarity in that he can control it. The bodyparts that make up the curse are insanely, insanely nasty, cannot be contained, are constantly getting stronger, and cannot be destroyed as they are. The parts he eats however become part of his body, and if HE dies the curse actually dies with him. He's given the option of dying right there on the spot, or finding and consuming the rest of the curse and THEN dying (thus eradicating this normally unstoppable curse). The protagonist agrees to the latter obviously, thinking that'll be how he "Dies well".

The MC reminds me of Tezuka's Rock character for my liking. The whole gag of him Shoving his gun in people's faces and/or mouths isn't helping.

I think this is the second jump start the mangaka from Noah's Notes did. Wasn't the first one about Shogi or something? This seems much more interesting, though I wonder how people will react to a main character who's main gimmick seems to be pulling a gun on people.

Yep, he's the mangaka of Mononofu which I believe got canned pretty quick, if not quite Red Sprite/Love Rush quick. I'm definitely feeling Noah's Notes, that bit where he breaks down her life plan via her mother's experiences was neat and a much more interesting way to get the character to start thinking about history than just shouting at her about how great history is. The twist at the end definitely would have gotten me even if that bit hadn't though.

Noah's Notes has a very good and interesting premise; I guess it'll depend upon how well it's executed. It seems like WSJ is really having a golden age since the passing of Naruto/Bleach; even its more generic series are very well executed (like Kimetsu no Yaiba or We Never Learn).

New We Never Learn! (That's the official name on the merch, god drat it Jaminisbox stop using 'We Can't Study.') https://jaiminisbox.com/reader/read/we-can-t-study/en/0/55/ Fantastic chapter, so many cute faces. Say it. Also, in case anyone finds the featured game to be a bit far-fetched, I can confirm it's a real thing! My old third year students were playing it at lunch shortly before they graduated, although they played to laughter rather than blushing. I lost too, so I feel you Nariyuki.

I just stumbled on Dimension W by the guy who did the second Darker than Black manga and King of Thorn and I'm really liking it. Pretty interesting sci-fi concept involving a technology that pulls infinite energy from another dimension and revolutionized the world, but of course there's a mysterious android and more to the infinite energy system than most people think. Also the main dude is basically Spike from Cowboy Bebop. Anyone else following this series?

It started off fairly interesting and then became just completely and totally mediocre. Or at least that was the general response to the anime. I dunno about the manga or whatever.
