I feel a bit betrayed. For the first five chapters Saikyou Juzoku is a cute little story about a guy reborn in a world with magic. He makes a friend, learns to use animated carved wood totems and helps bust the local magic pot monopoly. Then at the end of the fifth chapter they spring it on you that it's tradition in the village to marry your sister. Why? Why would you do this? There are so many better ways to make him leave the village.

He makes a friend, learns to use animated carved wood totems and helps bust the local magic pot monopoly. I would feel a lot worse about it if the protagonist decided to go along with this decision, but thankfully his reply is 'NOPE NOPE NOPE GONNA NOPE THE gently caress OUT OF THIS VILLAGE' and since his sister seems to be going yandere so hopefully she turns into an interesting antagonist. I've been reading Dimensional Mercenary and it's a very good korean isekai where the MC basically soul-swaps to other people to fix their lives, and once he does he gets paid. We don't know why yet, the company is shady as gently caress and he's starting to wonder if he's working for (literally) satan. But it's interesting and alternates between "How do I solve this game-like scenario" and "What is behind this sinister company" khy fucked around with this message at 02:31 on Sep 25, 2019 |

Dimensional Mercenary has been a decent filler between chapters of Solo Levelling, along with any other lovely isekai that pops up.

There is also the isekai where dude comes back to the real world after three years and realizes that time moved differently and magic people came to his world and now he has to go to magic highschool when he just wanted to be normal.

I know of two off the top of my head that work like that. I came back but the world is still a fantasy!? FFF-Class Trashero (MC did not pass hero training isekai a few times really wants to go home, is an expert at snapping necks and back damage.) Found out they have a tag on novelupdates for returning from another world: https://www.novelupdates.com/stag/returning-from-another-world/ Fallorn fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Sep 25, 2019 |

Blasphemous is a DarkSoulsVania that came out a couple weeks ago. Like many games inspired by Dark Souls, a lot of world building is delivered through item descriptions. I can’t find the description, but one relic belonged to a guy who had a Japanese name, came from an unknown land, and was said to possess a mysterious glowing tablet that seemed to speak. Sounds like an isekai protagonist with a cell phone. The thing is, the world is a crumbling theocracy inspired by morbid catholic imagery. The fanatical population suffers in the throes of the Grievous Miracle, a phenomenon in which sin, guilt, and all other forms of spiritual pain are manifested physically and in horrific fashion. Their faith is so fervent that they actually welcome it. The thought of a generic otaku trying to have a breezy adventure in that world is kind of funny to me.

So the anime Isekai Cheat Magician just finished and of course it was bog standard. Thing is though for all the talk of like "oh man this is such a cheat", the main character is one of the weakest isekai protagonists ive ever seen. He basically just punches dudes a bit fast and does big jumps and flies a bit. And if your thinking that doesn't sound very magiciany, your loving right. Isekai Cheat Magician is neither cheaty, nor a Magician. It's just an isekai, a bog standard one. The love interest though, she's a magician, and her spells seemed OP and cheaty as poo poo. She's the true Isekai Cheat Magician. But the focus is of course on the main dude who saves the day and her, somehow.

No idea how far the show got in that plot though

yeah that's fair the stuff in Elfen Lied came off as just him trying to be gross as gently caress to shock people, but I haven't touched his current series so if it's more blatantly piss-wizard-y in that I stand corrected

Saw it on the updated list on mangadex and clicked because the cover was neat. I generally avoid looking at summaries and content tags on manga sites.

He also didn't find out until his teens and mostly uses his amazing powers to have complicated relationships, so he might be an Otome-Game Isekai.

Super girl might actually be the isekai because super man did not have any memories because he was a baby while she grew up on another planet then got sent to earth and got powers.

The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a reverse isekai where the protagonist was friends with a regular, non-reverse isekai protagonist and got dragged back with him when he went home. His cheat skill is making sandwiches, but it takes a while to become useful.

MHW is an Isekai protagonist magnet. Rathalos is an Isekai protagonist though since it's been sent to both Final Fantasy Online and Smash Brothers.
