How could Isekais be improved?
Obviously Isekais are known as kind of a dumpster fire genre but what can be improved to make the genre actually interesting, what tropes should be thrown out and what can be added?
make the mcs actually care about their life back at home. if I was transmigrated into a different world I'd be more worried about my cat, like who is feeding her while I'm not there? what about my mom, she's probably expecting a call??? what if I didn't delete mangago from my google history before being isekaid?? that would haunt me forever probabl...... 2 reply
No harems/reverse harems. Also I am begging the authors to actually gain some sort of political awareness and not make the plot be "privileged bourgeoise vs resistance grps/revolutionists" or a world that enables sexual slavery (as an excuse for the mc to fuck women) like ofc you can write about these things, not everything has to be sunshine and r...... 2 reply

Also when Ml is just following fl every...... reply
Sorry for the long rant ("" ´∀`)
The main flaws of the Isekai genre were basically due to trying to appeal to the lonely escapist population who just want to self-insert to the level 100000 mage/swordsman/knight/hunter, woman magnet, wonder bread protag. Not saying that this sort of stuff should have no place in the anime/manga space whatsoever,...... reply
Stop giving the mc harems. Enough with them ugly disgusting pedo fat old bitch getting Isekai into some fantasy world and having multiple wives. Yes I'm talking about Mushoku Tensei. I hope his whole bloodline die. 1 reply
Actual character development. Authors think it’s just gaining confidence and becoming more skilled. That’s development. Your character needs to reflect on who they were and realize where they actually went wrong to change. Rebirth with your old memories still makes you the same shitty person as before. You haven’t fundamentally changed you ca...... 1 reply
If you're gonna be a fucking extra, don't look better than the main character bitch. STAY IN YOUR GODDAMN LANE. Jk. But like come on. I'm so done with them all having pink hair and blue eyes. reply
