Women are wonderful animals, they should be making music and writing novels about having a complex relationship with your mother.
There's also one that's called like, "It's torture time, princess" and from what I can gather it's about a demon king who keeps a princess in a dungeon and tortures her by eating delicious food in front of her and not giving her any unless she asks.

I read some of it and liked it for what it was but tbqh I don't see how they could stretch 30 seconds long but funny chapters into 24 minutes long episodes that still remain funny.

thermae romae is actually a reverse isekai since it's about someone from a faraway mystical land (ancient rome) coming to our world

scoff! "reverse isekai" is as nonsensical a term as "reverse harem"!!

e: if someone changes worlds, that's an isekai, period. thermae romae is just a Fantasy-to-Mundane or "FtM" isekai

A silly little mouse!
I’ll die in the hill that “Isekai” has attained a specific meaning that makes it a unique genre separate from fantasy stories that may or may not have someone hop through a wardrobe from earth. It’s about themes and poo poo. New Genres are born by accretion from older ones. Deal with it. Like trying to call Doom an adventure game because Myst is also first-person.

i only read a few chapters before getting bored but yeah from what i could tell the entire joke is 'we're gonna torture her' but the torture is poo poo like 'man this apple pie is soooo good i wish i could share it with you but you won't tell me the forces of good troop composition' and then she just does it

I like the isekai where this guy becomes The Cutest Girl and their stoic handsome friend is in denial about his attraction to her.

Googled and it's called "Fantasy Bishoujo Juniku Ojisan"

IIRC the protagonist wasn't exactly trans on Earth, but ends up embracing becoming a woman after isekai-ing

“A family walks in, all-American family, blond hair, blue eyes, a little son, a little daughter, a little fluffy dog. And the talent agent goes, ‘So what kind of act do you do?’ The father starts taking his shirt and jacket off. The mother starts taking her blouse off. Pretty soon, all of them are completely naked including the dog, who takes his leash off.”

He then describes a Hieronymus Bosch—like tableau of torture. Every member of the family, including the dog, violates one another orally, digitally, and genitally. There are descriptions of foreskin and Popeye-like forearms. The scene is stomach-churning, and that’s the point.

“The talent agent goes, ‘Hmm, that’s an interesting act,'” Gottfried says. “Which I know is kind of an understatement, because you’re saying, ‘If you have any sense of human decency, just say, “Why didn’t the talent agent just stop them in the beginning? Why didn’t he stop them the minute he saw the father unzipping his pants and saying, ‘This is totally wrong. Someone call the cops and I’ll sneak out. Something horrible is happening.'” This is a family who are raping their own children and performing bestiality. Why, oh why, is he allowing this to happen?’

“But that’s a whole other story,” he deadpanned. “So they’re covered with piss and poo poo and blood and cum and sweat, ooh, that sweat. And the talent agent says, ‘What do you call yourselves?’ And the father sticks his chest out and goes, ‘Isekai!'”

spiritually, but not literally.

there are like fifty manga with a vaguely similar premise of there being an evil party of adventurers that kicks out the boring MC who has powers like that of a FFXIV support character, and shocker it turns out that healing people is good and his new group is super cool and make his old party jealous, and I have no idea what it stems from. are these people getting kicked out of their free companies in FFXIV all the time or are they just ripping off something popular?

the premise of redo of healer is that he gets super powers and goes back in time to rape and/or murder everyone he didn't like so not quite the same thing

imo it's very easy to understand why the story premise of "all of the popular girls and boys used to bully me and call me a loser because they couldn't understand how secretly incredibly smart & powerful i am and now i've done absolutely nothing to better myself and a bunch of hot girls want to suck my dick" is popular among anime fans

they would still be kicking out the healer because almost all of these are adaptations of lovely soyetsu novels written by children who think that being able to instantly cure cancer or create food out of thin air isn't obviously good and useful so the evil party members are all cartoonishly stupid

Reading isekai about people getting chucked into otome games is giving me a headache because it seems to skip the interesting parts of romance (the characters getting to know each other and develop as people as they affirm their budding attraction for each other) in favor of one of the partners knowing everything about who she wants to date already. What is the point then? I don't want to watch someone do the "romantic" equivalent of playing a ROM hack for a game they already have beaten again and again that lets you date a fan favorite character. This is a great confidence booster for me since I want to be a writer and surely I can do better than this, but it also feels absolutely awful to read
