ADVENTURE IS A GENRE, ISEKAI IS A PLOT DEVICE

ADVENTURE IS THE GENRE, ISEKAI IS A PLOT DEVICE TO START AN ADVENTURE

Glad we could clear that up.

why's he offering her a tomato

BUT I DONT LIKE IT BECAUSE THEY WILL NEVER FEATURE AN OLD MAN GETTING MAD PUSSY

HMPH

IF THE ISEKAI BUBBLE DOESN'T BURST IN THE NEXT 18 MONTHS I WILL SEND ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE TO JAPAN

Are you an old man finding it hard to insert into a young man?

nope, fuck off

why would it burst, you can pull literally any kind of story using it.

Is staying at a mansion for 7+ episodes your idea of an adventure?

You could apply that thinking to the rape dungeon we're gonna get later.

But they don't adventure. They always seem to hang around the generic forest/castle/city.

>B-but muh 3rd arc, j-just you wait, you'll see!

>goes to other world where he must now protect princess to be from getting horribly murdered

It's an adventure with limited traveling.

Why would you think its going to burst, if you ever paid one second of attention in a LN thread, we told you that this was how anime and manga were going to be not for another 2-3 years. None of the big novels have been picked up either since the manga have been trying to get traction for these miscellaneous series.

There may even be a point when a chinese story will get adapted into Japanese animation, or interpretation inspired like Journey to the West with DBZ.

This comment, I don't even know what you're saying.

Isn't harem the genre and isekai the plot device? They're literally all harems so you can't separate them.

So how do we fix it?

Please speak in human language

...

I've jacked off so much today my dick hurts, I'll try again later fampai

Of course you'll get tons off rip offs and uncreative books that's just how YA fiction works.

The problem with Isekai is that you get complete trash like Re:monster becoming popular, it's such a good plot device it lets writers be lazy as shit and still make something that's interesting until you realise the writer isn't going anywhere with it.

>he doesnt know about the one where the old ass jew samurai and the middle aged corporate virgin get their souls fused with a baby in a fantasy world

That kids swimming in pussy

Now that sounds good.

>Japan falls into the Earth from an earthquake and is transported to a new world

other Isekai thread is dead

can we use yours?

>tfw thread nearly got to 700 posts
What did you fags do? Why did it blow up?

The last why isekai thread turned out fine so hoping this one will too, managed to hit 662 posts for some reason.
Better than offering her eggs if nothing else.

This guy got pussy.

It wasn't worth it though.

We had civilised fun and people talking about shit they liked.
The OL is a fine lady though.

Did he really? I wanted to start reading that.

we were pretty opinionated on how to fix the genre

also about those pills someone asked about
Basically the path to being an immortal is loooooong as all hell.

You're not suppose to be an immortal so naturally the normal process takes hundreds if not thousands of years.

out-universe the novel is already 1000+ chapters long so they need more brevity
in-universe you are only suppose to process your qi for a certain amount of time or you'll cripple yourself so you use the pills to restore your still to process more qi and reduce the 1000+ years of cultivating to merely 100 years (though you'll have to get stronger pills as you move along).

Sounds like the chinese has a drug problem.

Thats an apple you blind mother fuckers.

What's the newest trend on narou

He and the OL had a thing, there's also his dead lover but I'm not sure if they got anywhere before she got sacked.

I rather fuck the medallion.

>Why did it blow up?
Chinese vs Japanese

who is that?

Never read chinese stuff but seen some comics where they get round things from dead monks and consume them to increase power.
They do the same?
There's also them transferring power to others like heirs or something.

to be fair ancient Chinese tried to obtain immortaility by drinking mercury

at least in this case it actually works

That's just chi. That's not the pills. Chi is this gas, liquid and when really refined, becomes a crystal/round thing.

I like this novel. Guy tries to introduce some banking techniques in fantasy world and awakened fantasy jews who promptly crushed his little project with their huge economy.

yep

Xianxia MCs are DnD murderhobos that tend to loot dead bodies.

it is translated?

Is there a Hitler?

Best Isekai coming through

that's not 12 kingdoms

lol eop

and why would you want a translation to begin with? it would be some shitty edited machine translation from previous chinese machine translation

oh wait, i guess that's what you're reading already

I thought that was just some conman duping some stupid emperor.

No idea, but probably not.

Not that I know of, still on vol 1.

Is that called the rise and fall of the Freim kingdom?

Several European scientists in the 17th century thought similar things, but were quickly proven wrong so we stopped doing that.

A little too real if you ask me. I don't need despair in both worlds.

...

I wonder what you guys feel about elf reincarnation, it brings nothing new to the table but I find it a good waste of time.

Yeah, that's the one.

OL = Office Lady. Basically the secretary fetish archetype.

I liked the mansion arc.
Then again, I also liked Rokka no Yuusha so I guess it's for people with an actual attention span instead of
>m-muh sakuga

Nevermind, it was shit that I dropped long ago

Office Lady.

It provides an opportunity for the MC to dick elf babes without the inevitable "oh but you are a lowly human" /tg/ kabuki, so I don't mind in isekai. In a more serious genre it would be body-horror bait.

That elf martial arts LN fell kinda flat for me after awhile.

Well the guy I was talking about asked the emperor to give him thousands of lolis and shotas and ship to find some heaven island or something.
Predictably, he didn't come back.

>not watching anime for the animation
Go read a fucking book.

>people will actually watch anime just for animation
>no voices
>no sound
>just animation

I feel you.

>thousands of lolis and a ship
>heaven island
The heaven was wherever he wound up.

>(Those who don't work can't eat, after all.)
>In Japan, even if you did no actual work for a day or two, the company would still pay you. You could just look at some random websites, say you were studying the industry or developing your skills, and everything would be fine.

Jesus Christ this isekai story is great. Thanks to the guy who mentioned it in the other isekai thread, I'm laughing every chapter so far.

I'd liked Bu NI Mi in the beginning but it's not as exciting as before. Repeating excessive useless details.

Which guy? the guy who shat on it or the guy that posted this?

>molesting a girl with metal gauntlets
What a fucking bitch. I would force her to molest an armored body with her bare hands as punishment.

As for the path to being an immortal

you start by circulating chi throughout your entire body by opening all the gates you have. Kinda like Rock Lee in Naruto except people in the Xianxia world will find his method "completely retarded and suicidal." Then you have to create a sea using that chi and use that sea to create a giant chi reactor in your body. This reactor will use the chi to produce an egg which will be your soul while you go into immortality.

Afterwards you are suppose to separate that soul from your body and form it into a stable entity in it of itself while the heavens try to strike you down with lightning, fire, and pretty much everything in its arsenal. Then once the severing is done you are suppose to completely do away with your mortal form and hatch into your new form and become a spirit which is basically more of a universal concept (see Madokami).

After you become a spirit you can influence the world but at the same time the laws of the world still has control over you so you are suppose to break out of the world altogether so you can influence it but it can't influence you and there you have it you are now an immortal. The heavenly court will probably see you as an outsider and do fuck with you but now you are basically a god.

>apple

>big novels
What ones are you talking about?

Doesn't really matter, I just followed the post chain and got intrigued by how the MC is plain looking and bam - now I'm reading about a guy that broke out of jail by smearing his female cellmate's shit in the jailer's face before stealing his sword and stabbing him. Then he gives the shit covered sword to his cellmate and he has shit on his hands for the rest of the day.

This shit is gold.

Shield Hero, MT, Re: Monster, Arifureta, etc.

What was the worst LN/WN you've ever read?

Is it unusual for this to happen in manga? I'm mostly seeing talk about LNs and shit.

Well that sounds awesome. No wonder why it's called "completely retarded and suicidal". And those pills just bypass everything?

>tfw shieldbro has half million book sales
>divided in between 14 LN volumes and 5-6 manga volumes
>25k average
>mushoku about to catch up even with a lower volume and manga count
I wish i had the link to the sales data but i lost it and can't find it.
I wish they adapted them sooner rather than later. But then again, Sup Forums would hate them if they got too popular, if at all.

DxD LNs. What a fucking mess. The worst part is it took me five volumes to decide that it wasn't Issei being a retarded narrator, it was the author who was a moron.

Just go full adventure. Don't go isekai.

no but they do cut time, add extra ki, or just restore health.

drawing a manga takes more skill than writing a masturbatory webnovel

Isn't this the one that looks like SAO?

So pills are kinda equivalent to permanent stat-boosting potions in the generic videogame mechanics?

>ISEKAI WILL BURST IN 18 MONTHS

lolno

isekais are harlequins for males - they just fulfill a male power fantasy and not a female, romance one.

So in chinese comics the hero sometimes coincidentally fall or get trapped in some cave or chamber or with some old man and finds martial art guidance, that happen often?

Lmao cant wait inb4 dosnt get anothrr season for some reason

>there will never be fifty shades of isekai

REZERO IS SHIT
REZERO IS SHIT

Glad we could clear that up.

Maou No Hajimekata non-hentai adaption when? :^) :^)

Didn't that start as fanfic?

Gunota.

But I'm sure there's worst.

>maou no aur
muh nigga
>non-hentai
no

Its just the easiest and laziest way to establish a premise with a relatable MC who is suddenly in a foreign world where anything can happen, fuck logic and rules. Perfect for bad writers

Im surprised otaku media writers didnt discover this earlier honestly, I dont see this ever going away.

It's not much of a dungeon if it doesn't get raided.

I'd accept this but only if he doesn't get to cheat by restoring his youth

You're a fucking retard. It's a goddamned appa.

That in itself is fine, the real problem is that now the writers don't even seem to be interested in creating an interesting world of their own and just skip all the worldbuilding with "it's a fantasy video game world with stats and skills"

You could go full Kumo by going a couple hunnid chapters and then go "Wait shit I actually have to explain shit now"

Too bad when they started explaining shit the story went down the toilet. Kumo was a lot better when it was about a spider trying to survive in a dungeon labyrinth.
