Guyver posted:This happens in the manga in chapter 11 (the one from two months ago) except they don't show nothing happening in the end but leave it up to your imagination. Yeah the novel itself skims over that scene and it works out ok, but then he had to go and write his expanded version at the end.

I really don't know which thread the put this in, so I chose this one. It isn't an isekai, but has otome game tropes, but isn't really a romance thing either. But, The Holy Grail of Eris looks to be a wild ride so far.

Yeah, the "reincarnated as the villainess" genre seems to have reached the point where actual reincarnation is optional. Frankly so has the "fantasy world that is exactly like a video game with skill points and stuff" genre.

Someone brought this up in another thread but maybe you can help find it, do you know of a particular Russian isekai (time travel really) about I think a train engineer who introduces trains to Russia a few hundred years early?

A new chapter chapter of Shinju no Nectar continues the slow built of the setting and adds an interesting wrinkle to what was a pretty obvious mystery until now. So Arlen and Rubian aren't God's native to Albion, but instead what I'm assuming is the analogue to Denmark in this setting through. Yet the most prestigious military academy for men and women in Albion is named after both of these Gods, even after they attacked the native land of Arlen/Rubian and even made explicit moves to destroying places of worship? And there's a cult mostly populated by women who worship Arlen which is ironic given that the history of this world states that Rubian rejected the advances of her male counterpart. This continues to be a surprisingly substantial story even though there's still half a chapter dedicated to getting as many tits out as possible. Including this month's chapter which has...one way to avoid detection when you're sneaking into a hedonistic cult's lair during the group orgy. I'll give the writing duo this, they find a way to make it make sense 80% of the time.

I've recommended The world of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs before, but the manga completed the first volume and I wanna reiterate it's fun. The TL;DR is that the MC is a brother who was forced to complete an Otome game by his sister, and pulls a 48-hour marathon to do so. Then he falls down some stairs and dies. He reincarnates into that world, and decides to try to have a fun life, but immediately almost gets sold off to a fat old woman as a disposable husband. He earns his freedom and tries to find a nice girl to marry, but gets put into the advanced class at his academy which is full of scheming noble women instead of nice ones. He tries to avoid the main plot because he doesn't want to be involved, but a MYSTERIOUS OTHER PERSON is pulling the strings to replace the protagonist. Major spoiler The Mysterious girl is the MC's sister who reincarnate and is basically impersonating how the real protagonist would act in order to get a reverse harem ending. The MC ends up befriending the real protagonist AND the villainess, and fucks up his sister's plans pretty badly. I like it because the MC is an rear end in a top hat, his equipment is an AI that berates and insults him, and everyone basically hates his guts but he's still just chilling and having fun doing poo poo his own way. It does have slaves (Which, weirdly enough, are higher than most men on the social ladder) and also almost all the women in the series are complete bitches which will not surprise anyone when they learn that it's from the author of Sevens. Even so, it's fun enough that I think it's worth checking out if you have some time. khy fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Nov 26, 2019 |

I don't like it because it's written by a guy who loathes otome games with his entire being yet apparently has no idea what they're like. Sounds like an anti-feminist tract, tbh.

At first I felt like it was very MGTOW, but honestly it's only the noblewomen who are horrible bitches and when I think about it, that isn't too much different than all the other Isekais where the nobles are all conniving backstabbers who conspire against everyone. Of course I'm not all the way through so it could get much worse and I haven't hit that part just yet. That said, if you're not into that here's a fun and cute DOUBLE ISEKAI Welcome to Japan, Elf-San. The MC Isekai's into another world every night, but then in a TWIST his elf friend Isekai's into OUR WORLD! Features lots of the 'japanese food is so delicious' Isekai trope but is very cute as well. khy fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Nov 26, 2019 |

Solo Levelling! It's not an Isekai but who cares it's got 90% of an Isekai's tropes. ETA until the MC gets called in to solo the entire ant's nest and gain weirdass new ant ghost shadow things? I'm guessing 3 more chapters and he'll be there.

i think solo leveling mostly does a good job of supplying an absurd teen power fantasy while avoiding the absolutely rancid misogyny most other entries in the genre are filled to the brim with lol at the girl who is disgusted at the smell of male adventurers but is mysteriously attracted to the protagonist, tho

New Isekai that looks like it may very well be good Wicked Trapper : Hunter of Heroes The MC is a game dev that produces insanely challenging traps and dungeons, and gets fired because his poo poo is too hard. So he's summoned to hell where he gets to use his trap mastery to murder the poo poo out of heroes.

Why do people like Reincarnated as a Slime? I only just started, but the novels have been an endless series of shopping lists. I'm having a hard time getting through volume two. He's not even a loving slime by the end of volume 1. Like my god, there goes the original hook. I've noticed a few isekai where the MC is constantly acquiring new abilities and spending pages and pages explaining what they do. Maybe because writing drama is hard and filling in character sheets is easy.

Reposting my request from the other isekai thread: What was that isekai someone posted before that was described as Dark Souls the Isekai? Was it good? What are some good isekais/mangas/manwhas/web novels what have you where the protagonist or some friends that have spooky powers or evil powers or skills normally attached to evil characters? But are good people? I love the concept so I'm collecting a list to slowly work through.

I have seen Re:Zero and it was alright. I will pass on Goblin Slayer. I think someone posted it here accompanied by a screencap of a manga of some knight running into a large troll, being surprised, and dying immediately. Was edited with the Dark Souls YOU DIED in the last panel. Was it any good?
