Remember when isekais didn't had videogame mechanics? Remember when the MC didn't spawn with all kinds of OP powers?

The most popular example of FF's blue magic mostly came from common encounters.

>eat it (or something symilar)

FF8 you could get stat ups eating the normal mooks. FF9 had eating instead of being shot with the spell to learn it.

>even though it makes no fucking sense that I, a human/slime/cat couls be able to breathe fire like a dragon

Shooting missiles without a launcher, machine gun fire out of your bellybutton and status afflicting cigarette smoke breath is some of the shit covered under blue magic. Firebreath is low energy in comparison.

It's like I'm downloading anime in 2002 all over again, except the release is dated 2010.

Do the DVDs look better enough to warrant a new encode? Maybe I could work on it, it should encode decently fast even if it's 102 episodes because of the resolution.

The DVDs are not in any of the trackers I'm in so I can't check for myself.

I used to watch that all the time with my brothers back in the day and thought it was the bestest ever but when I took OFF the rose-tinted goggles and rewatched it last year it was actually so bad like whoa. The OP and ED are both amazing though!

Isekai is pretty much a complete garbage genre but at least the older ones put an ounce of effort into their setting. Everything nowadays is mostly a throwaway video game world that the author uses as crutch since they've entered into the realm of shared cultural knowledge. Good ones being stuff like Digimon, Log Horizon, or .Hack//sign

.hack//Sign is interesting in that as far as isekai/"trapped in a game" setting goes, it's only in effect for a single person, and rather than being focused on action, actually understood how much MMOs are (were?) meant to be about player interaction, though the "high talk, low combat" nature of it can wind up being boring for some. Also showcasing of the sort of people that would actually be drawn long term to that sort of game. Personally I really liked it.

Also, credit where its due, I've been reading Parallel Paradise and finding it quite refreshing to see an isekai that actually avoids most vidya elements. Only one that's been present is the idea that enemies have an exploitable weakness, and as the protagonist isn't actually big on RPGs and the like, he really does struggle to actually try to remember what his dad said about such (being that he apparently makes RPGs for a living). Beyond that it comes off as world that isn't dependent on trying to be a game and running the risk of the author clearly not knowing a damn thing about such, the way some wind up.

To be fair Naofumi is a light novel reader. Maybe the universe is revolving about light novel rules instead of MMO rules?

I just don't like fantasy universes relaying in stats.

Besides some silly comedies and potato elf there is barely no isekai where fantasy gets into the regular world, right? I wish I could see my idea about an orc being isekai'd into the modern world to be a yakuza boss, just to bring more orcs into the world to rule the criminal world.

Depends. There is plenty of reverse iskeai where you get shit dragged into the real world, like Gate and so on.

But, the only ones I can think of that don't isekai RPG system and stat grindan along with the things from the fantasy world in one way or the other, was the one with the princess knight ending up on a farm, ends up in quarantine along with half of the village was in contact with and deals with homesickness, and some other mango about MC becoming a manager of a whole isekai'd island full of rapefugee elves.

Is Darwin's Game an Isekai? This is the first I've sat through in some time. I usually hate anything that resembles it, but for some reason, this has been tolerable. The premise is just as tacky as Isekai, but at least the "game" and it's rules remains in the real world.

Now and Then, Here And There

I rarely ever see this masterpiece mentioned, so I need to throw out the summary real quick.

In this Isekai, a kid named Shuzo "Shu" Matsutani comes across a water deity named Lala Ru from another world on top of an Industrial Chimney. They both immediately get attacked and pulled back to her planet (or possibly earth in a very far future), and he discovers that she tried running away because her world is one big Mad-Max desert completely deprived of water after some catastrophic event rendered it barely habitable (and everybody wants a piece of her because of it). He'll have to face months of learning to face greedy dictators, familiar faces, giant floating LED Lamps, and the tremendous horrors kids in Somalia face every day, while Lala Ru slowly learns to feel empathetic for humans again after they've been literally using her up dry for eons.

It's as every-bit as awesome sounding as it looks. I'm just looking for your opinions on this "one-of-a-kind" flare of sci-fi (with a slight pinch of "magic") goodness.

>The Devil is a Part Timer

It's pretty interesting to watch once you get past the ridiculous premise, and the poorly done romance.

Speaking of which, I'd be interested if they pulled of a lot more reverse-isekai's.

Like an Elf who gets pulled into Iceland, and immediately becomes a Citizen because they have a real law there that says so (look it up, I'm not kidding).

Or a friendly rebellious Leprechaun who decides to finally leave his underground borough to "the forbidden side", and receives the biggest culture shock when he finds Modern Ireland is nothing like what it was 300 years ago (before it was forbidden to go out, and hand away shoes every full moon). The entire reason they shut themselves out could be the fear that the "Stealers Talún Inbred ón taobh eile den Mhuir" would execute them in the name of god, and take their gold or something.

Or maybe one of those Strong Warrior Dwarves who somehow ends up sent to the future (From whence it was just different enough to be considered a different world. The kind that can be used for Planet of the Apes parodies.) to the Modern-day Balkans where he ends up finding out that the world ain't so different 500 years in the future (considering he's sent to about a decade after the war collapsed most of the economy). A story about learning to appreciate the simple in life, and what not...

But I'm just throwing out free ideas because I'm bored as all hell...
