Why is it that the anime industry seems to be adapting increasingly shitty isekai series as time goes on? And here was I thinking they couldn't top Smartphone in terms of shittiness but here comes Death March in all its shitty glory.
You'd figure they'd try to go up instead of down, no?
Smartphone is next level, the fuck are you on. Death March is shitty, but it's not pretentious or anything so it works as a filler if you have empty space in your eternal backlog. You haven't heard of the shittiest ones, but they are coming, and they are absolutely lame.
Angel Morgan
>Smartphone and Death March >shitty Fuck off.
Caleb Collins
well i tried to find good isekai for a year now. And while i really like the basic plot, there are simply not many good stories. The only great one is 12 kingdoms, which how old? 10 years? 15 years? The only isekai novels which i follow are release that witch and overlord. One comes from china with over 1000 chapters and the other one already has a show. The rest focuses too much on degenerates with they fanservice and harem shit. so better give it up user. there are not many good stories, and the few stories out there will not be made into a watchable show.
Easton Sullivan
Easy explanation is that they just sell. There's always a group of people out there that will eat up any isekai that's thrown their way.
Julian Martin
It's one of the oldest and most popular series of the genre, therefore it gets an adaptation.
Nathaniel Walker
They don't always sell, but isekai has had a much better trend of success than battle harem academies, and those took years to die down in spite of failure after failure (we were even getting multiples in a single season at a point, with none of them succeeding).
Connor Davis
>Why is it that the anime industry seems to be adapting increasingly shitty isekai series as time goes on? Because they are popular.
Thomas Hall
arifureta soon
Easton Anderson
>that one guy who watches every Isekai I have a steam friend like this, links me every goddamn Isekai series and tells me that I "have to watch it" even though I don't like his shit genre.
Grayson Taylor
>tfw arifureta delayed till 2019
Owen Taylor
Ixion Saga was fun, but it was an isekai parody.
Alexander Reyes
And here is irrefutable proof that neo-Sup Forums has absolute shit taste.
Robert Clark
We need more urban fantasy musical cyberpunk isekai.
Isaac Cooper
I think is inevitable, after all many of them are probably new to anime and of course they are going to love their first anime, they dont know any better.
Bentley Rivera
Can it instead be delayed forever? There is literally noting redeeming about that trash fire.
Isaiah White
>tfw you want MT adaptation >and it will probably come since LN is in on the road to final I fear the day when I have to see lowbudget adventures that skip over everything
Ryan James
Fuck off to your NTRkxxx threads. Isekai is here to stay and hasn't even peaked yet . REMONSTER ANIME ANNOUNCEMENT SOON
Jaxson Gomez
Because they ran out of the less shitty Isekai to adapt and nobody wants to make anime original fantasy anime anymore.
Benjamin Taylor
But if they always sell, why not adapt GOOD isekai instead of BAD isekai?
Even if you go merely by sales numbers there are tons of isekai that outsell stuff like Desumachi and Arifureta that don't have adaptions.
Ethan Watson
MT is way too long for it to not be utterly raped and left bleeding in a dark alleyway by an anime adaption.
What the hell could you fit into 12 episodes without completely murdering the pacing?
Aaron Gomez
They adapt the isekai that'll get the most sales. Which to you might be a terrible isekai.
Daniel Wood
The main point of anime adaptations is to advertise and thus make people aware that this isekai light novel exists and that they should read it. The good ones don't really need one, since they're already selling. They will still be made, of course, because the synergy effects from being already quite popular means that new fans will find lots of already existing fanart, an established senior earlier fanbase generation to share their thoughts about it, wiki fansites with lots of content to read about the development in the manga, and have fandiscussion allowing each to share the experience.
Robert Cox
i loved smartphone i like the themes in deathmarch, mc is going out of his way to level up his npc buddies and not take all the xp, there's a comical blend of vidyagame and real world.
plus i've always had a boner for spellcasting where they cast spells with incredibly fast words
Brody Nguyen
>well i tried to find good isekai for a year now
Try Isekai: Westaboo Edition.
Bentley Torres
MT is shit, stop spreading around. Arifureta is much better you dumbfuck.
Ethan Thompson
I liked both MT and Arifureta
Ryan Hall
I REMEMBER
Brody Harris
I liked the manga... but dear god, can we give male characters real voices? Not this bullshit where they're trying to sound like a fucking girl.
Also the popups are a neat way of doing things but at the same time, I have never been more in tune with my inner cringe.
Isaiah Stewart
I dont even need to shit on you. Others will when ari adaptation comes out.
Parker Wood
I liked smartphone and deathmarch is fun.
Looking forward for a army of lolis
James Martinez
Here's hoping it gets shitcanned.
Joseph Rivera
Oh don't worry about arifureta anime adaptation being shit, because it's whitefox, they are good at isekai genres.
Blake Morris
Wow... like, everything that they animated that I watched, I liked. Honestly impressive.
Zachary Wood
This. >tfw hating some anime that I first watched after rewatching it
John Morales
Because retards like you keep watching them. You should have been able to tell it was garbage since the trailer.
Nathaniel Allen
OH GOD THE CG, its berserk all over again my eyes aren't prepared
Noah Jenkins
HOLY SHIT What the fuck
Aaron Hill
HOLY TESTICLES OF FIRE!
Anthony Gonzalez
There are no NPCs in Death March.
Camden Jenkins
My biggest gripe is that the MC is often a high school boy with the voice of a chick. Give me an older character. Even just early 20s with a normal fucking voice.
William Parker
Most if not all isekai are made for teenage boys to self-insert into. You're getting whingy girl-voiced boys.
Matthew Lopez
das rite m8 The ugly cg killed them all.
Blake Peterson
Why can't we get some otome isekai adaptions instead?
Cameron Gray
They want all the money, not some of it.
Blake Cooper
>adapting otome when isekai are majorly harem It's like you don't want money, user.
Liam Sanchez
>new gayme poster yeah they do have shit taste for sure because you're here
Lucas Baker
Youjo Senki has a good story (though the anime adaptation is crappy)
Jackson Gomez
Because they’re shit, a female mc will work but it needs to be a comfy series or go full powerlevel edge.
Gabriel Russell
Which isekai have full powerlevel edge female mc?
Angel Sanchez
Yuru Camp but isekai? I'll watch it.
Noah Barnes
Kumo desu ga nani ka?
Austin Reyes
fujoshis spend a lot of money and otome is just reverse harem
Dominic Myers
...
Isaiah Sanders
Zena is not part of the harem?
Eli Brooks
Fujoshi aren't interested in reverse harem.
Henry Rivera
Because it's fun and you're a faggot
Lincoln Lee
This. The setting and the early story really get me hook in my childhood. Too bad it seems like it got rushed during the later point in the story but it's a good read nonetheless.
Don't read the Omega version of MAR though. That's only for die-hard fan who want continuation of the story but it's kinda bland compare to the original
Cooper Hernandez
She joins more permanently after the anime will be over.
Asher Edwards
No, nothing needs to be how you want it to be, no, you don't need to like things, no you're not the grand arbiter of what qualifies as good or bad.
Alexander Collins
Try Katahane no Riku, her only power is retard strength.
Nolan Wright
Poor girl.
Austin Hughes
That can describe all of them, they all want Satou and all Satou wants is a 100 million year old high elf.
Cameron Hill
>adapting increasingly shitty isekai series It's because of the proliferation of shitty isekai which are making money in other media.
There are really a lot of the things now.
Just like how harems proliferated right after NGE.
LOOK AT THIS FUCKING MANLY SHIT. youtube.com/watch?v=JBbnT-cIDVM THIS IS WHAT I WANTED TO SELF INSERT AS WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER.
Oliver Cox
Too much soy in their diet
Julian Mitchell
Dropped it after they made a bone centipede transport.
Luke Jenkins
AS LONG AS THEY WON'T SCREW IT UP.
Manly indeed.
I miss modular armor and its rage face.
Tyler Perez
I am extremely looking forward to it. I hope they follow the novels instead of the manga too.
Aaron Baker
>smartphone >death march >shit Absolutely disgusting opinion. Please lurk before posting.
Nicholas Harris
I wish the Skeleton Knight isekai got an anime
Blake Davis
death march is miles better than smartphone ever was. youre both retarded
Jace Thompson
These two are actually shit. One is a special kind of shit, the other boring power-wank shit.
You want actual isekai? Shield Hero, Nectar of Dharami, Curse Blood, Escaflowne, Dunbine, Rayearth, El Hazard...
That's just the peak of the iceberg pleb.
New chapters when?
Cameron Ortiz
Vol 7 is fully translated now, vol 8 is gonna be the end of the WN, after that you're gonna have to buy the translators LN volumes if you want more. Speaking of isekai stuff we want a anime of I wanna see Isekai Mahou to get animated purely to see the shitposting the first two volumes will cause when animated.
Leo Parker
The 1st chapter of volume 8 is up on the WN site
Robert Morales
>he doesn't watch isekai drunk off his ass
This is truly the best way to watch isekai. Doesn't matter what series it is I always have a blast.
Ryder Wilson
Pretty sure the anime will have differences from the manga and the LN.
Robert Brooks
Why would you need anything special to insert yourself in? Isn't it a basic skill to imagine "What would I do in that situation"? Why has there to be a balnd protagonist to insert in?
Andrew Diaz
At least isekai anime are flopping. There hasn't been a success like Re Zero in two years.
Logan Cook
Why do you do this to yourself
Jackson Green
Yep. Adaptations don't mean that everything will be translated perfectly. There will be differences in scenes and other details.
Chase Barnes
>he doesn't read isekai and analyze the writing to better his analytical skills Isekai is the perfect format for beginning authors, the quality is easily observable through isekai's basic structure.
Hudson Roberts
The thing im afraid of is how many episodes or cours will the adaptation last for. 12 episodes for 4 volumes will be a pacing disaster.
Cameron Gutierrez
You are both uncultured, uneducated proles.
Let me enlighten you. Even ancient romans, more than 2000 years ago, had the knowledge that they put into a maxim: de gustibus non est disputandum.
I doubdt proletarian, slave level garbage like you has any knowledge of ancient languages of the patricians, so either google it, or trust my somewhat literal translation - matters of taste are not up for discussion.
Instead of engaging in a fool's errand and acting like typical proles, exchanging spiteful remarks, simply bring up superior works and remark how poorly the ones you dislike compare.
Nathaniel Thomas
They already fucked this up. How bad can it get. Did anyone see the slide show they put in for content?
Isaac Adams
I can feel your angst here.
They are doing the same with the Houshin Engi remake.
Literally they try to compress a shitload of manga volumes into 26 episodes. And people see this. It's a crime against fun and plot.
Brody King
Because it's the in thing right now and the Japanese economy is basically forced to do 'What Sells' to make anything resembling a profit. It's why you see those pictures of Japanese business workers basically die from exhaustion on trains
Andrew Johnson
>i can feel your angsy here CRAWLING IN MY SHIELD
Logan Smith
THAT is how Moroha-nee from Smartphone is supposed to look?
...I'm converting now.
Brody White
I too would feel angst if they took my favorite title and stair it in a way that would make me question a lot of things.
Only time will tell.
Elijah Wright
no wonder you dont understnad the appeal. your picture doesnt even include the best character of the show. pochi is life, user.
Jackson Bell
If I were the Death March MC, my testicles would also be on fire.
Hudson Turner
Since that's out of the way now... Wanna discuss some shieldbros? Anyone?
Jacob Hall
Serious question here. What's the point in all this when you're cheating? What's the point in looking COOL and self-righteous, what's the point of all the pompous titles and stats when you're a cheater? What kind of sad, pathetic human being self inserts into these characters?
Kayden Sanchez
Yeah. Last chapter of the manga is pretty downy in terms of emotional elements.
Seriously, I know that Scythe Dude and his Ruby-Forehead Waifu want to save their world, but in all honesty he ain't pleased at all that he had to turn on Naofumi.
Is it the destiny of the Shield Hero to suffer? To be like this citadel in the middle of a raging shitstorm of rage, angst and sudden turns?
Angel Cooper
Smartphone: I kept watching it, hoping for it to turn into anything but what it was all along. My god, this truly is what plain vanilla cookie cutter milk toast garbage is.
Nicholas Jones
Someone who wants a quick buck and there are a lot of ball-less people who are willing to pay for this.
Ian Jones
> Is it the destiny of the Shield Hero to suffer? No pain no fortune boi
