not for the shows Crunchyroll has, generally. but they don't get every show--some are picked up by other outlets, most notably Funimation. unfortunately, most of those outlets have a reputation for putting up even worse subtitles than Crunchyroll does

Sending $1 to every animator involved and then torrenting the episode. (Cheaper than the Blurays probably)

The specific moment when I realized there was no hope for the series was when he offered to free the slave child and she didn't want to be freed and this was portrayed as being a good thing.

I probably should have realized it was hopeless even before this, but I tried reading this before gaining familiarity with isekai web novel tropes.

Shield Heroes Rise Up

I want you all to get hype for tomorrow's episode. It has my favorite part from the manga: Naofumi just about wipes out his own party through a series of terrible decisions is the victim of unjust circumstances and it's very sad that these things keep happening to him, very tragic, and if you think about it Shield Heroes really are the most persecuted minority in Melromac.

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
The conversation has sort of moved on, but I'd just like to point out that Touhou is a colonial isekai, except it's told from the point of view of the natives and they all think the colonizers are idiots who don't understand what anyone needs and only ever gently caress things up.

Although if you look at the series through a racial critical lens it's all sorts of hosed up too.

Edit: Although it also has the Greek goddess Hecate just come in out of nowhere as the voice of reason and explain that immigration is actually a very good thing for a nation's culture, and also btw Hell is literally just unchecked capitalism.

it also has a constant influx of fake news/information streaming into it from the real world, which becomes "real" in gensokyo because of how the realm works(iirc there's one about how enough people think the moon landing was faked that that got transferred into gensokyo), and tons of various obsolete technology flowing in as they're replaced by newer items and "forgotten" in our world that they have no idea how to use. I forget which series had the character who runs a store selling all the trinkets and he would try to whip up theories on what various things were used for.

The Moon Landing was America's assault on the Mooninite Menace, it wasn't faked.

"Fake news" is a very poor term for it. Gensokyo is where the things people no longer believe in go--so fairies, youkai, vampires, magic, and so on. The joke is that enough people disbelieve the moon landing for information on it to appear there.

Touhou is literally an Isekai in that within the series itself it describes their world as an isekai, and it's recently got dumbass teenagers from the modern world coming over to make jokes about how it's just like one of their animes.

The next book coming out in March is a photojournal by one of thise ternagers called the "Isekai Photography Record."
