there is also a third entire class isekai where the guy didn't register as having powers because he already had the power to kill anyone he thinks of before they got isekai'd.

in that isekai, the cheats transmigrators typically receive are a form of psychic malware that turns you into a horrible person a few classmates miss out on this "super fun upgrade" due to having divine protection or something better https://mangadex.org/title/24281/sokushi-cheat-ga-saikyou-sugite-isekai-no-yatsura-ga-marude-aite-ni-naranai-n-desu-ga Jackard fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Aug 17, 2019 |

The isekai series, already a genre not known for handling social commentary well, predicated on rape and murder is bad

Oh hey, new Shinju no Nectar Featuring enough full frontal nudity to honestly make me roll my eyes. I am wary of pulling the Grey Enfield card here, no accounting for which of these upper class students have actually met the real deal through their families plus his disguise amounts to dying his hair and putting on a mask. Plus if they ask for any combat demonstrations Kai is up a creek because sucks.

Killing a person who can create clones of herself that are distinct enough to be considered a separate entity by tracing back to the prime body and not any of the remote ones. Dude is absolutely broken and the reveal that he's some literal unnamed god is going to keep me reading this a few more chapters.

His power is very specifically designed to be absolutely unbeatable with no weaknesses whatsoever, almost like an intellectual exercise.

Clarste posted:His power is very specifically designed to be absolutely unbeatable with no weaknesses whatsoever, almost like an intellectual exercise. It was my personal road to realizing just how broken he is that made it a fun exercise in-and-of-itself. He starts off just killing stuff regardless of level. Cool. Then he kills specific parts of a person which renders it completely unusable even if a new organ or appendage is regenerated. Then it went to him killing the undead because in his own words "I consider anything moving to be alive" so he just wastes zombies. Then he tracks down a guy through the empathic bond he has running through all the people under the influence of his domination ability, which makes sense killing intent has been the consistent trigger for the MC to notice people. But it was when someone who knew about the network and created a completely contained one shows up, uses an attack that doesn't have any intent in it, and is just testing the MC's limits itself. Only for their actual original body to die when the standalone network is killed. That's when I understood how absolute his ability is and how boned all these sages are. Robo-dude was right. MC is simply too dangerous to be brought back to anyone's world much less his own.

Captain Invictus posted:Taking a Dump in a Fantasy World Toilet. I got curious. I read the first chapter. The MC kills a slime and uses it to wipe his rear end after taking a poo poo. The slime pops out of the toilet, climbs up his rear end, eats the food in his stomach and gives him a stomach cramp. He goes to poo poo and violently shits out a MASSIVE SLIME all over the toilet. Just... why. khy fucked around with this message at 04:25 on Sep 8, 2019 |

I think time travel can be isekai, but only if they never engage with the "changing the past" nature of it. If the time travel is just an excuse to hang out in a medieval or dinosaur world, then it's basically an isekai.

Onmi posted:So now I ask the question to you all. If the series uses time travel like in Noein, it's Isekai since alternate timelines and parallel realities are "different worlds" by definition. So depending on how they've explained how all the Planet of the Apes movies, whether they are all on the same timeline or if there are parallel timelines that can be isekai. If it's a single timeline but the 2nd time period the characters travel to it from their home timeline and the story treats it as a fish out of water scenario and has major cultural/social/and technological differences, it's touching on some key aspects of isekai so I treat them as such. This is your 'Now and Then, Here and There', This is your 'Inuyasha', and yes this would be FFX. I'd need more examples of time travel in anime though, outside of some smaller time loops it's not something I see a lot of to be honest, at least not in recent anime due to how sci-fi has more or less died off and Fantasy is caught up in video game mechanics. I think Re: Zero is the last series I can think of that uses time travel and that's just groundhog day loops.

FFX also comes close to being isekai because of zanarkand being a literal different reality than the rest of the planet, albeit one that is based on a historical place.

The Bible is an isekai; Jesus' homeworld is heaven, he introduces foreign concepts such as peace and love, and he has a huge male harem that he goes around recruiting. He's also got several OP isekai powers.

No, but that's not what Zanarkand is. Zanakrand is a SUMMON that is a physical island off the coast of Spira that's protected by Sin. It's how Jecht managed to get to Spira just by sailing too far out to train and getting caught up in the bullshit.

It may be physically present but it's ontologically completely different than the rest of the world, as a place that has been summoned into existence. It isn't actually reality in the same way spira is.

IIRC, Titus' Zanarkand and all of its residents are the summon of a giant fayth created by survivors of the original Zanarkand.

It's not really lovecraftian, it's just that Tidus and Zanarkland aren't "real".

Zanarkand was a real place 1000 years before FFX, it was the first place destroy by Sin. The 'dream zanarkand' is a summon, a recreation of the city created by the memories of its inhabitants. Titus is from dream Zanarkand and as such is part of the summon.
