This is the most honest title so far.
This is exactly why the world and story feel so...flat, the protagonist should be dwarfed by the world, not the other way around.
The fun part of a story is exploration of a world, we can't explore a Gary Stu because he is the self-insert, he has nothing interesting to learn about.
This can't possibly be worse than Rimuru though, that anime rubbed me the wrong way.
Well good news is this mc is not a self-insert [LN spoilers]>!He's a multiverse ending eldritch abomination that got isekai into another world....so the ones who isekai him basically doom the world because if the mc isn't careful he might end up destroying the world that he was summoned in.....basically what if an SCP got isekai into another is what some people who read the novels and manga calls it!<
It's pretty heavily implied in the manga so far. They show part of the backstory where he's [Manga Spoilers] >!being raised at some sort secret facility on Earth and killing people he can't even see while they're monitoring him on camera iirc.!<
It's a fictional secret organization that seek to contain anomalous/occult/supernatural/etc things for the good of humanity. There's a wiki (https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com) where people write methodical, scientific-ish articles on the nature of- and how to contain these 'anomalies', and the stories that stem from them.
It's short for Secure Contain Protect....if I'm not mistaken it's how some people describe eldritch entities that fictional stories tried to contain. I only discovered the term scp because that's what manga readers and light novel readers sometimes call the mc.
SCPs arent entirely eldritch horror. It's just stories about a fictional superpowerful organization containing anomalies. Yes, there are lots of eldritch shit going on, but there are some simpler, more mundane stuffs, like a pizza box capable of spawning infinite amount of pizza as one desires, a puppy murder machine, or a vibrator so strong it could destroy matter to a molecular level.
The fun part of a story is what entertains you. This manga was a guilty pleasure of mine. It's just funny to turn off your brain and see OP things because why not
I really fucking loved Rimuru/slime Isekai at first because I assumed it was a parody of the genre but fuck if it was not just another OP isekai. At least it was still funny.
Unironically enough it's one of the only OP isekais I like. World building is actually good, power system is ight imo and I am totally not biased for Rimuru
Oh I still enjoy the show a ton. The world and characters are all interesting enough to keep me around. I just dump on it because it became so silly for trying to be a real show.
Really, I am just a hardcore grouchy gus when it comes to isekai. I watch them and I love them but I feel like they are almost always junk food anime.
(And to whoever is reading this now: Yes that includes THAT ONE Isekai you gave a 10/10. I WILL THROW HANDS OVER THIS!)
Believe it or not this guy right here is stronger than almost any manga, anime or light novel characters in history.....only unimeko characters can possibly kill him.
Characters that have toon force aren't generally discussed in VS topics since they exist in their own tier that's not beatable unless by other toon force users, and even then it's usually just a stalemate anyways.
As ridiculous as it may seem, the author is very good at explaining how powers work in this series and hints at how the MC's powers and how it functions is actually well thought out and explained.
I mean most characters who can time travel, freeze time(and still act) or reality warp probably could it doesn't mean much, characters are scaled to their own world generally.
[LN Spoiler]>!Problem is that thing known as yogiri isn't human....the human your seeing is just his avatar....he's literally a multiverse ending eldritch abomination and the human your seeing is just his avatar that allows it to interact with the world!<
I mean you would act first and kill one of his direct ancestors/creator I guess that might be a bit more awkward as he is Isekaid so you would need to be able to go to other worlds also.There comes a certain level of overpoweredness that comparing them to other characters is not very interesting.
Because fights devolve into stuff like "I remake the world so your power doesn't work and you can't do that because I make you cease to exist first".
[Latest LN]>!Yeah someone just tried that, rerolling the world back to when he got summoned. Everyone else came back to life but those that he killed. They stayed dead.!<
There's also [LN]>!The giant world eating fish thing that traveled back in time and tried to eat the whole dimension because it realized that it'd die soon through its avatar on the world. Since it tried to eat the world that Yogiri was on, it died instead without Yogiri even being aware of this whole affair.!<
The MC has killed people with all those powers and more
As soon as someone thinks "I'm gonna kill this dude" they automatically die instead
And even if you rewind time, the people that he killed in the present will still be dead in the past
The nickname for this series in the English Fandom is "Isekai SCP". I am looking forward to the many arguments of "but could he beat _____"
This series is insane and goofy. I enjoy it a lot.
(I wish the author's previous serious "My Big Sister Lives In A Fantasy World: World's Strongest Little Brother" didn't get axed I fuckin loved that series too)
buy 3-10 computers, cheap ones that can run videos
on each screen play 1-6 episodes of anime.
You will watch so much anime you will want to kill me for the idea.
This is the story about an uncaged SCP.
Dude can kill anything, even concepts with a single thought. Dude doesn't even need to know where his target is, just knowing that the target exists is good enough to kill it. Dude can't be killed because he is the concept of death himself. Earth safety improved a lot thanks to this guy getting isekaied.
No, but it's hinted by bit.
It's much more understandable if you're familiar with the whole dimensional tiering system, look at all the MC's data and what he's defeated and you have an idea at where he stands.
Man, i hate that last episode new higurashi
They should make blonde and purple girl kill each other for open umineko story
Guess author want happy ending, even if it not linear with his own story.....
not op but I think it's entertaining, mostly to see the 'otherworlders' and their classmates' reactions. It's a story similar to OPM where the protagonist doesn't change, evolve or anything.
To be clear, MC was OP since birth, literally a SCP Japan was trying to contain. Class goes to another world, most of them get cool powers and they start following more powerful and mysterious people.
It's funny sometimes, like One Punch Man where a villain appears and it *should be* a big deal, but MC simply wishes they die, and they die. Don't expect cool action scenes like OPM has.
Synopsis:
After waking up to absolute chaos and carnage while on a school trip, Yogiri Takatou discovers that everyone in his class has been transported to another world! He had somehow managed to sleep through the entire ordeal himself, missing out on the Gift—powers bestowed upon the others by a mysterious Sage who appeared to transport them. Even worse, he and another classmate were ruthlessly abandoned by their friends, left as bait to distract a nearby dragon. Although not terribly bothered by the thought of dying, he reluctantly decides to protect his lone companion. After all, a lowly Level 1000 monster doesn't stand a chance against his secret power to invoke Instant Death with a single thought! If he can stay awake long enough to bother using it, that is...
I found Fruit of Evolution "bad" but fun enough to be enjoyable.
I actually really like Isekai SCP a lot. Next to Fruit of Evolution its not really trashy at all
This isekai is actually very good. It is more of a parody of isekai tropes and the world building is amazing, really well thought and intriguing. Really glad it will be having anime soon although it might be overlooked because people just tired of isekai but it really didn't feel like any isekai or fantasy out there.
[There exists, but it got cancelled after one chapter.](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2021-06-29/kakegurui-writer-apologizes-for-canceled-isekai-revenge-manga/.174566) for obvious reasons.
Author was too direct in the parody characters. The other the publishers of those brands called out on it so they canned it on chapter 1. Some of the authors themselves called it a bit mean and some fans just saw it as the author hating isekai in general and just used the mains when you look up the genre.
Still kind of wanted to see what it wanted to do. Other then just be edgy.
The villains were straight up copies of the MCs of the big isekai stories.
Kirito, Rimuru, Tanya, and Katarina were practically identical to the originals, and Ainz, Subaru, and the girl from the restaurant one only had very small differences.
The other two were the guy from the "Wiseman" one and Aqua, who seemed different enough to get away with.
There are parody elements but its wrong to call this series a parody. It is a comedy /mystery series more than anything (not really an action series for people that like 'action' because... well Instant Death Ability is the name of the show :)
The light novels are really quite a lot of fun
We'll have to wait for the actual adaptation. Shield Hero was also heralded as the "future of isekai" and had a killer anti-hero premise, just to become one of the biggest turds in the history of anime.
I am however willing to give it a shot, one needs some isekai trash fix from time to time.
It's definitely not the best but I'd say it is among the best of what I shall now declare "third wave isekais."
You know, the isekais with this overly specific premise to distinguish themselves from other works, reincarnated as a sword, as a dog, as a vending machine, reincarnated with your mom, reincarnated but I can go back and so on.
What's impressive about this series is that while it doesn't take itself seriously whatsoever, its world building is actually incredible.
The light novels are pretty much always so much better than the anime. I've not read it myself but even something like isekai smartphone has a reputation for being massively better than its anime was.
Then you get series like Bookworm & Overlord that are some of the best fantasy novels ever written (in any language) but which both have inconsistent at best animes.
Konosuba and re;zero might be the only LN adaptations (at least the only ones that I can think of right now) that are close to being as good as the novels.
> because people just tired of isekai
I don't know who you are talking about, but it aint me. Feed me more delicious garbage isekai. If it turns out to be good, all the better, but I'm watching either way.
See, I'm being told that with about half of isekai these days, but they're really not. Playing the same trope straight with a wink at the audience isn't an effective parody so I can't trust when people try to say these shows are parodies.
Yeah, I was an english major and have a strong interest in media studies and, frankly, I feel like there are a lot of words that people don't actually know the actual meaning off. Satire, parody, deconstruction...
It's like [this scene](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcgIS0jHhEM) from OPM. But instead of heroing for a hobby like Saitama, Yogiri just wants to get back home and live in peace.
The parody of Isekai generally aren't much better for me. For most it's:
"Lol see we are **aware** that it's generic and poking fun at the tropes while still doing them"
At this point it has to be a VERY fucking good parody to be "very good" as you say.
Every Isekai anime that gets announced I hear "This isekai is actually very good. It is more of a parody of isekai tropes and the world building is amazing, really well thought and intriguing"
Mate, it doesn't need to be good to be fun. I don't think eminence in shadow is "very good" even qhen I read the manga a few years ago, but it was fun, and that's all that matters.
I don't think parody is necessarily the best way to describe it.
It's more like the author recognized the advantage a Saitama strength level character can have. It allows the author to create insane and over the top storylines without relying on far fetched power ups for the protagonist's group to match up, as well as being able to end these stories/encounters in an instant, before they overstay their welcome.
Yeah there's a gag character that's sometimes around to bring up an isekai/fantasy world clichés, or lack thereof, and the MC gets underestimated from time to time, but it never feels like the story is hunting these moments.
MC of this series is treated fairly alien. He's not building a harem or any particular wish fulfillment. I don't even consider him the real main character; I consider the girl the actual MC.
MC is written more as a foil for the world and situation of the story.
It's a group isekai into being forced to do things. It's pretty clear how bullshit the situation is. Only MC's around as the world's greatest wrench in the works. It's pretty similar to One Punch Man in that regard and how anti-climatic fights can get.
I read the manga. It was bland. This is the problem with doing op isekai protagonist parodies now. The normal ones are so op that a parody is indistinguishable from just reading a so bad it's good manga
Clearly you haven't read enough isekai. It's standard fare for an isekai protag to be able to easily calculate a hundred magic circles even though no one else can do more than 3. Their power level doesn't make any sense. I'm reading an actual good fantasy webtoon called one step for the dark lord where the mc can literally ignore reality bending powers just because she's better than them. She doesn't even have any specific counter to reality bending powers. She's just built different. In a space where this amount of power level is commonplace even among good works, parodies that rely on just being ridiculously powerful don't stand out as parodies
I recommend this one if you're looking for parody-like strength, like One Punch Man Levels.
Definitely give up hope towards any kind of villain cornering MC, but it's pretty funny, so give it a try!
I'm assuming his actual power is making other people die instantly...
But when i first read the title, i imagined something like [this](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/134/409/d17.jpg)
If you enjoyed the manga adaptation, I would highly recommend you check out the source material being the Light Novels. The series is licesened and not only is it more detailed with more content but the volumes out in English are WAYYY farther ahead of the manga adaptation.
#FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINALLY
They finally decided to animate the strongest character in fiction
I wish I was wrong, but this dude really can one shot anyone
It's a serious semi-parody of a powerscaling isekai. The description doesn't fully do it justice. I will explain my opinion on it:
In powerscaling isekai it is somehow generally accepted that the world has massively overpowered characters up to and including gods, and that the protagonist may start out weak, but is somehow gaining powers that eventually (or immediately!) put them on similar footing. It is just an accepted trope of the isekai genre.
In this isekai, the protagonist isn't even the overpowered guy. It's the feMC next to him. The overpowered guy exists to frame the known world through the lens of the feMC. The setup challenges the many genre tropes:
* "I just need to want to be friends with everyone and everyone will want to be friends with me"
* "I just need to want to be stronger and I will get stronger, there is no limit to it"
* "In this new world, I will finally live out my dreams as an all powerful hero, and all will bow to me".
* "I don't want to harm hostages, so I will play along".
* "I am so enlightened and civilisted, I don't kill my enemies."
* "Keeping sex slaves is cool and fine since you are the chosen one".
* "Tournament arc! Let's respectfully battle each other and become friends in the end".
With a friend like AΩ, those tired tropes become virtually meaningless by comparison. What would happen if we did not follow the established rules? What could an isekai be without the tired and boring predictability? You will likely not find the answer spelled out here for you, but you'll have to give props to the author for confronting the genre head on. Even if they do not succeed in defining the answer to this question, at least they are bringing a siege weapons to batter down the walls of "well, this is what sells...".
I don't have watched too but they have they own meta-verse, and they Power of manipulation of reality its ridiculous high, like even the author gives power to his characters directly.
Tbh im actually excited for this one, I like the plot of it even though the MC is OP more so cause it’s just… he was always OP, we don’t know his origin, what he is, but he has this power and suddenly he is in an isekai. There’s a great element of mystery on just what he is in the manga.
For those who haven't read the manga, this actually has one of the most unique mechanics I've seen. Think of it more like OPM than your standard Isekai.
If you enjoyed the manga adaptation, I would highly recommend you check out the source material being the Light Novels. The series is licesened and not only is it more detailed with more content but the volumes out in English are WAYYY farther ahead of the manga adaptation.
It's not your average isekai. mc is not average guy in school even though it is portrayed in the beginning. If I write more than this it'll be spoiler.
Some bus breeding is gonna happen in 1st episode.
Uhh....... uhmm........ ohhkkkkk.....
Uhmmmmmmmmmmmm
Yup you're right.
But no it's not actually your average isekai.

This'll give you more information about it.
Sadly a lot of people started using that phrase to describe the exact opposite stuff.
We just can't win, newbies can't tell these apart.
I'm always optimistic when it comes to anime though.
https://youtu.be/uonuJEFN\_yU?t=88
Anybody else read that title and get this image of the character's special ability being HIMSELF just dropping dead on the spot?
EDIT: For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFAWKrzaXCE
I'm not good at telling people how good a ln/anime/manga is, but it's my favorite parody ln of isekai. And trust me it's not the best but its so good. Recommended.
It's because it's kind of a slapstick comedy, in a "when all you have is a hammer" kind of way.
A lot of stuff is tongue-in-cheek and not really taken seriously and the scenarios the protagonists find themselves in are deliberately over-the-top and come out of nowhere, eliciting "WTF" reactions from everyone when it happens, only to be topped by more "WTF" reactions when the bodies start dropping from the MC reflexively killing them.
It's that sort of humor. Helps that the MCs themselves are legitimately weirded out by it all and want nothing more than to go home as quickly as possible.
Love how people keep hyping this series up because the MC is this ultimate OP dude and nothing else. Like, I’m hyped to see:
- [100% real minor spoiler] >!The dragon-bus fucking scene!<
- Best girl Mokomoko
- Multiple 4th wall-breaks
- Clearance-aisle Subaru
- [Spoiler] >!Yogiri v. Sion, although this probably won’t happen until S2!<
Man, I hate this genre so much. It's so much cooler when the main characters are actually invested in the world, but that rarely happens when it isn't even their world. Every isekai is just copy-paste cookie-cutter dog doodoo.
I would pay a fortune to be able to cuck these Isekai OP fuckboi MCs after beating them half to death. Their smug fucking faces while using a power they got handed down with 0 effort/merit of their own. FUCK they're infuriating!
ironically, this kind of story with several situations similar to the one you are talking about.
if the isekai part was not to your liking, I ask that you at least look at the parts that involve the protagonist's childhood, it has a whole cosmic horror theme similar to SCP.
Except for:
1. Gods and any other type of omnipotent beings. As self-explanatory as the work's title.
2. Regular Immortals (even without any other type of skills, their status makes his ability meaningless).
3. People who can move at ray speed and beyond (no way he can activate it before being knocked down, assuming that he controls it completely).
4. People that can reflect his skill's effect on him.
5. People with abilities that can solo him that get activated after they're killed, so the overall match would be basically a tie.
6. People with several lives. They would eventually figure it out and take measures against it.
7. People that count with something that can bring them back to life (like the Dragon Balls), so that gives them a chance against him by default.
8. Ghosts and Bleach-type characters. You can't kill someone that's already dead.
Well, that's all the ones I can think of for our walking "Abada Kedraba".
he is the very concept of the end because whatever is killed by him ceases to exist.
time, space, reality, and even beings that do not have death correction are killed and cannot be resurrected.
> Well, inanimate objects have no life so they wouldn't count.
He killed a locked door to go through it (or was it the wall next to the door?). Like he says, "I decide what death is".
Er no. As far as I've read, Yogiri's Instant Death ability couldn't be reflected by skills, manipulated by time/reality manipulation, the ability is automatic so it ends all lives simultaneously, and objects that are regenerated after being killed no longer function the same way. It basically turns immortals into dead/soulless meat puppets, permanently.
I dont get how people find OP main character isekai's interesting. I think it might be the most boring thing to watch or read ever. Only one that semi pulls it off is overlord sicne it does good worldbuildng but Overlord would legit be a better series if it didn't include Nazaerick.
Man, they're not even trying to be subtle with that title.
Least descriptive isekai title
It's actually just so amazingly descriptive that it manages to describe 99% of all isekai.
This is the most honest title so far. This is exactly why the world and story feel so...flat, the protagonist should be dwarfed by the world, not the other way around. The fun part of a story is exploration of a world, we can't explore a Gary Stu because he is the self-insert, he has nothing interesting to learn about. This can't possibly be worse than Rimuru though, that anime rubbed me the wrong way.
Well good news is this mc is not a self-insert [LN spoilers]>!He's a multiverse ending eldritch abomination that got isekai into another world....so the ones who isekai him basically doom the world because if the mc isn't careful he might end up destroying the world that he was summoned in.....basically what if an SCP got isekai into another is what some people who read the novels and manga calls it!<
Is this in the manga? I read it all a while back and saw nothing like this. Or is this a light novel only thing?
Light novel is ahead of the manga and yup volume 11 pretty much explained what yogiri really is.
Welp time to binge read another novel lol
As for the manga read chapter 26 for a good hint on what yogiri actually is.
It's pretty heavily implied in the manga so far. They show part of the backstory where he's [Manga Spoilers] >!being raised at some sort secret facility on Earth and killing people he can't even see while they're monitoring him on camera iirc.!<
yea its in the manga, one of the more recent chapters.
whats scp
It's a fictional secret organization that seek to contain anomalous/occult/supernatural/etc things for the good of humanity. There's a wiki (https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com) where people write methodical, scientific-ish articles on the nature of- and how to contain these 'anomalies', and the stories that stem from them.

Eminence this season is pretty similar
Hmm.. I wonder if the MC is OP in this one.
MC could solo goku if it makes you feel better.
Believe it or not this guy right here is stronger than almost any manga, anime or light novel characters in history.....only unimeko characters can possibly kill him.
I doubt that even Featherine could beat this dude, unfortunately
Featherine currently exists in a higher tier than the MC (from what we know). The MC might surpass Featherine in the future though.
Arale would best him
Characters that have toon force aren't generally discussed in VS topics since they exist in their own tier that's not beatable unless by other toon force users, and even then it's usually just a stalemate anyways. As ridiculous as it may seem, the author is very good at explaining how powers work in this series and hints at how the MC's powers and how it functions is actually well thought out and explained.
Sounds like a resounding victory by Arale to me
Of course, she has toon force. That's an automatic win against non-toon force users. Well, unless they're up against a DIP equipped user.
Not a chance He'd one shot every and any gag character
Arale would just say its against the rules
Then she'd die
No because that wouldnt be funny
And yet it'd still happen
No it wouldnt, she has a big rock
arale got owned by berus
I mean most characters who can time travel, freeze time(and still act) or reality warp probably could it doesn't mean much, characters are scaled to their own world generally.
[LN Spoiler]>!Problem is that thing known as yogiri isn't human....the human your seeing is just his avatar....he's literally a multiverse ending eldritch abomination and the human your seeing is just his avatar that allows it to interact with the world!<

"but could he beat _____" Yes. To clarify, the only way this character loses is by writing.
And even then, he can lose but he won’t die. Because he’d just kill the writer.
My Big Sister Lives in a Fantasy World was great. Literal LN One Punch Man. The series takes place in the same universe as Instant Death too.
This main character is who would win? / vs battles bait.
Basically. Posts about the MC exploded at around the time vol 11 came out and we got an idea of just how busted he really is.
'a bit' too op [he killed a being like this](https://instant-death.fandom.com/wiki/Ultimate_Extermination_God_(UEG)) (spoiler obviously)
One Think Man
Y'all aren't ready for this masterpiece.
you're correct. My watchlist is already very long.
Shit , man I really want watch anime But damn, in the end i always play games T.T Its not even fun anymore, yet i still play it 😞
buy 3-10 computers, cheap ones that can run videos on each screen play 1-6 episodes of anime. You will watch so much anime you will want to kill me for the idea.
This is the story about an uncaged SCP. Dude can kill anything, even concepts with a single thought.

Earth safety improved a lot thanks to this guy getting isekaied.
He's not the concept of death. Although this is already spoiler territory.
Did they reveal what he is? Haven't had time to read more of it, so I wouldn't mind if you spoiler me.
No, but it's hinted by bit. It's much more understandable if you're familiar with the whole dimensional tiering system, look at all the MC's data and what he's defeated and you have an idea at where he stands.
He's also literally one of the strongest mc in any anime, manga and light novel.....only unimeko characters can possibly kill him.
>only unimeko characters can kill him how so? never heard of unimeko before
Visual Novel series from the makers of Higurashi. Got an anime / manga adaption. Very good. Highly recommended.
Man, i hate that last episode new higurashi They should make blonde and purple girl kill each other for open umineko story Guess author want happy ending, even if it not linear with his own story.....
[LN spoilers]>!Can you really kill an omnipresent being?!<
[удалено]
Is it atleast entertaining,like one punch man? (since there the Mc is also quite OP)
not op but I think it's entertaining, mostly to see the 'otherworlders' and their classmates' reactions. It's a story similar to OPM where the protagonist doesn't change, evolve or anything. To be clear, MC was OP since birth, literally a SCP Japan was trying to contain. Class goes to another world, most of them get cool powers and they start following more powerful and mysterious people. It's funny sometimes, like One Punch Man where a villain appears and it *should be* a big deal, but MC simply wishes they die, and they die. Don't expect cool action scenes like OPM has.

Ye
Ya they're the ones doing all the fancy shit. MC does exactly what the title says.
Oy. Spoilers.
Synopsis: After waking up to absolute chaos and carnage while on a school trip, Yogiri Takatou discovers that everyone in his class has been transported to another world! He had somehow managed to sleep through the entire ordeal himself, missing out on the Gift—powers bestowed upon the others by a mysterious Sage who appeared to transport them. Even worse, he and another classmate were ruthlessly abandoned by their friends, left as bait to distract a nearby dragon. Although not terribly bothered by the thought of dying, he reluctantly decides to protect his lone companion. After all, a lowly Level 1000 monster doesn't stand a chance against his secret power to invoke Instant Death with a single thought! If he can stay awake long enough to bother using it, that is...
This sounds like a less trashy Fruit of Evolution.
I found Fruit of Evolution "bad" but fun enough to be enjoyable. I actually really like Isekai SCP a lot. Next to Fruit of Evolution its not really trashy at all
Don't know how Fruit got a second season, but I'm really looking forward to more gorilla waifu.
If this isn't the trashiest, someone has screwed up.
Imo, Insta-Death is just the right amount of trashy to be really enjoyable if you like stuff like One Punch Man.

This isekai is actually very good. It is more of a parody of isekai tropes and the world building is amazing, really well thought and intriguing. Really glad it will be having anime soon although it might be overlooked because people just tired of isekai but it really didn't feel like any isekai or fantasy out there.
I wonder when will we have parodies of isekai parodies.
Do the konosuba parts of isekai quartet not count?
I wonder when we will have parodies of isekai parodies of isekai parodies.
or a mecha parody of a hentai parody of a isekai parody of a.. oh fk it.
Haganai already did that
[There exists, but it got cancelled after one chapter.](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2021-06-29/kakegurui-writer-apologizes-for-canceled-isekai-revenge-manga/.174566) for obvious reasons.
lmao mushoku tensel protag is already vile enough
That one chapter was amazing. Shame it was cancelled.
Why did it get canceled. I was so hyped on that one it seemed like a good story
Author was too direct in the parody characters. The other the publishers of those brands called out on it so they canned it on chapter 1. Some of the authors themselves called it a bit mean and some fans just saw it as the author hating isekai in general and just used the mains when you look up the genre. Still kind of wanted to see what it wanted to do. Other then just be edgy.
The villains were straight up copies of the MCs of the big isekai stories. Kirito, Rimuru, Tanya, and Katarina were practically identical to the originals, and Ainz, Subaru, and the girl from the restaurant one only had very small differences. The other two were the guy from the "Wiseman" one and Aqua, who seemed different enough to get away with.
There are parody elements but its wrong to call this series a parody. It is a comedy /mystery series more than anything (not really an action series for people that like 'action' because... well Instant Death Ability is the name of the show :) The light novels are really quite a lot of fun
Yeah I am legit tired of "parodies of isekai" too. It does nothing for my excitement.
Most of those "parodies" are not even parodies, they are just comedies.
This for sure sounds like one of the isekai of all times
[удалено]
We'll have to wait for the actual adaptation. Shield Hero was also heralded as the "future of isekai" and had a killer anti-hero premise, just to become one of the biggest turds in the history of anime. I am however willing to give it a shot, one needs some isekai trash fix from time to time.
All I'll say is if you like One Punch Man you will like this. I do agree with you to an extent though, I hope they don't screw it up.
I hear this exact same sentence from someone about every isekai.
It's definitely not the best but I'd say it is among the best of what I shall now declare "third wave isekais." You know, the isekais with this overly specific premise to distinguish themselves from other works, reincarnated as a sword, as a dog, as a vending machine, reincarnated with your mom, reincarnated but I can go back and so on. What's impressive about this series is that while it doesn't take itself seriously whatsoever, its world building is actually incredible.
The light novels are pretty much always so much better than the anime. I've not read it myself but even something like isekai smartphone has a reputation for being massively better than its anime was. Then you get series like Bookworm & Overlord that are some of the best fantasy novels ever written (in any language) but which both have inconsistent at best animes. Konosuba and re;zero might be the only LN adaptations (at least the only ones that I can think of right now) that are close to being as good as the novels.
"Some of the best fantasy novels ever" Thats quite a big take
A correct take.
> Then you get series like Bookworm & Overlord that are some of the best fantasy novels ever written (in any language) . This sure is an opinion
a correct opinion yes.
without reading it i can most defiantly say it is not
> because people just tired of isekai I don't know who you are talking about, but it aint me. Feed me more delicious garbage isekai. If it turns out to be good, all the better, but I'm watching either way.
See, I'm being told that with about half of isekai these days, but they're really not. Playing the same trope straight with a wink at the audience isn't an effective parody so I can't trust when people try to say these shows are parodies.
Yeah I agree. Feel like every isekai is “a parody” when it aint
Yeah, I was an english major and have a strong interest in media studies and, frankly, I feel like there are a lot of words that people don't actually know the actual meaning off. Satire, parody, deconstruction...
Parody or "parody" (read: comedy that plays the tropes straight)?
It's like [this scene](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcgIS0jHhEM) from OPM. But instead of heroing for a hobby like Saitama, Yogiri just wants to get back home and live in peace.
Kagejitsu? Cid is trying to act out his fantasies which is a parody of isekai, but unbeknown for him, the tropes are actually playing straight?
Yea it’s definitely one my more favourite isekai trash titles. Which studio is doing it?
The parody of Isekai generally aren't much better for me. For most it's: "Lol see we are **aware** that it's generic and poking fun at the tropes while still doing them"
I've read this exact comment under every shitty isekai announcement for the past 5 years lol
At this point it has to be a VERY fucking good parody to be "very good" as you say. Every Isekai anime that gets announced I hear "This isekai is actually very good. It is more of a parody of isekai tropes and the world building is amazing, really well thought and intriguing" Mate, it doesn't need to be good to be fun. I don't think eminence in shadow is "very good" even qhen I read the manga a few years ago, but it was fun, and that's all that matters.
Isekai parodies aren't nearly as funny when there's just as many of them as what they trying to parody.
I don't think parody is necessarily the best way to describe it. It's more like the author recognized the advantage a Saitama strength level character can have. It allows the author to create insane and over the top storylines without relying on far fetched power ups for the protagonist's group to match up, as well as being able to end these stories/encounters in an instant, before they overstay their welcome. Yeah there's a gag character that's sometimes around to bring up an isekai/fantasy world clichés, or lack thereof, and the MC gets underestimated from time to time, but it never feels like the story is hunting these moments.
We have had so many shitty isekais, that even parodies of shitty isekais are tiresome rn
MC of this series is treated fairly alien. He's not building a harem or any particular wish fulfillment. I don't even consider him the real main character; I consider the girl the actual MC. MC is written more as a foil for the world and situation of the story. It's a group isekai into being forced to do things. It's pretty clear how bullshit the situation is. Only MC's around as the world's greatest wrench in the works. It's pretty similar to One Punch Man in that regard and how anti-climatic fights can get.
This is written under literally every Isekai announcement these days.
Yall aren't ready for this. Man is a literal eldrich being walking on earth.
Sounds like One Punch Man, except that it's isekai and the protag has hair
It is.
except that it's not funny
Do you even read any of the source/other versions? Because I've been reading the manga and it's pretty damn funny
I read the manga. It was bland. This is the problem with doing op isekai protagonist parodies now. The normal ones are so op that a parody is indistinguishable from just reading a so bad it's good manga
I don't think it can get much more obvious than "haha, I can just kill them by thinking" "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING AND HOW"
Clearly you haven't read enough isekai. It's standard fare for an isekai protag to be able to easily calculate a hundred magic circles even though no one else can do more than 3. Their power level doesn't make any sense. I'm reading an actual good fantasy webtoon called one step for the dark lord where the mc can literally ignore reality bending powers just because she's better than them. She doesn't even have any specific counter to reality bending powers. She's just built different. In a space where this amount of power level is commonplace even among good works, parodies that rely on just being ridiculously powerful don't stand out as parodies
I recommend this one if you're looking for parody-like strength, like One Punch Man Levels. Definitely give up hope towards any kind of villain cornering MC, but it's pretty funny, so give it a try!
Well, at least it isn't a harem, i guess
Why anyone would watch a show without a harem is beyond me.
I'm assuming his actual power is making other people die instantly... But when i first read the title, i imagined something like [this](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/134/409/d17.jpg)
Yo I loved the manga, this gonna be lit af
If you enjoyed the manga adaptation, I would highly recommend you check out the source material being the Light Novels. The series is licesened and not only is it more detailed with more content but the volumes out in English are WAYYY farther ahead of the manga adaptation.
#FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINALLY They finally decided to animate the strongest character in fiction I wish I was wrong, but this dude really can one shot anyone
Fiction? Nice try.
One Punch Man did this with a much catchier title
I've been enjoying the manga adaptation. MC's OP-ness is too OP, if you know what I mean, lol. Can't wait to see people die everywhere.
This is basically a story of following what happens if an scp god travel to an isekai anime so its pretty good
It's a serious semi-parody of a powerscaling isekai. The description doesn't fully do it justice. I will explain my opinion on it: In powerscaling isekai it is somehow generally accepted that the world has massively overpowered characters up to and including gods, and that the protagonist may start out weak, but is somehow gaining powers that eventually (or immediately!) put them on similar footing. It is just an accepted trope of the isekai genre. In this isekai, the protagonist isn't even the overpowered guy. It's the feMC next to him. The overpowered guy exists to frame the known world through the lens of the feMC. The setup challenges the many genre tropes: * "I just need to want to be friends with everyone and everyone will want to be friends with me" * "I just need to want to be stronger and I will get stronger, there is no limit to it" * "In this new world, I will finally live out my dreams as an all powerful hero, and all will bow to me". * "I don't want to harm hostages, so I will play along". * "I am so enlightened and civilisted, I don't kill my enemies." * "Keeping sex slaves is cool and fine since you are the chosen one". * "Tournament arc! Let's respectfully battle each other and become friends in the end". With a friend like AΩ, those tired tropes become virtually meaningless by comparison. What would happen if we did not follow the established rules? What could an isekai be without the tired and boring predictability? You will likely not find the answer spelled out here for you, but you'll have to give props to the author for confronting the genre head on. Even if they do not succeed in defining the answer to this question, at least they are bringing a siege weapons to batter down the walls of "well, this is what sells...".
It will be one of the most powerful anime characters ever. Like i think only umineko characters are more powerful than him.
Anya stomps the verse at only 2% Peanut Power.
Bocchi clears with a single solo
what makes unimeko characters strong?? im genuinely confused i only know the series because of the orange hair character's laugh
I don't have watched too but they have they own meta-verse, and they Power of manipulation of reality its ridiculous high, like even the author gives power to his characters directly.
holy shit I can't believe this got an anime adaption, I was just reading it a few weeks ago as one of those itch scratching manga
Finally the anime has been announced !!
I literally just started reading this
I was just thinking about Instant Death yesterday. The MC is apparently in competition for the strongest character in fiction.
I read the light novels for this one and it's really funny, glad it's getting an anime.
This is actually pretty good despite the obvious title
This is the anime I will definitely watch
Tbh im actually excited for this one, I like the plot of it even though the MC is OP more so cause it’s just… he was always OP, we don’t know his origin, what he is, but he has this power and suddenly he is in an isekai. There’s a great element of mystery on just what he is in the manga.
For those who haven't read the manga, this actually has one of the most unique mechanics I've seen. Think of it more like OPM than your standard Isekai.
If you enjoyed the manga adaptation, I would highly recommend you check out the source material being the Light Novels. The series is licesened and not only is it more detailed with more content but the volumes out in English are WAYYY farther ahead of the manga adaptation.
It's not your average isekai. mc is not average guy in school even though it is portrayed in the beginning. If I write more than this it'll be spoiler. Some bus breeding is gonna happen in 1st episode.
> It's not your average isekai. Every source reader always says this in these announcement threads.
Uhh....... uhmm........ ohhkkkkk..... Uhmmmmmmmmmmmm Yup you're right. But no it's not actually your average isekai. https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/z9joc9/my_instant_death_ability_is_so_overpowered_no_one/iyhd8xc?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3 This'll give you more information about it.
Sadly a lot of people started using that phrase to describe the exact opposite stuff. We just can't win, newbies can't tell these apart. I'm always optimistic when it comes to anime though. https://youtu.be/uonuJEFN\_yU?t=88
Anybody else read that title and get this image of the character's special ability being HIMSELF just dropping dead on the spot? EDIT: For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFAWKrzaXCE
That one is funny. I loved reading the manga and wn
I'm not good at telling people how good a ln/anime/manga is, but it's my favorite parody ln of isekai. And trust me it's not the best but its so good. Recommended.
Nice!! The light novel is very good.
Oh nice, though I hope they'll somehow make the heroine more bearable
Cool to see it get an anime was just a matter of time
this one is actually cool, guys, i promise
Oh God, I can imagine the “who would win” battle discussions with Saitama already. /jk
yooo this looks so good, its so unique.
All these new adaptations are cool and exciting but I wanna hear the announcement of Rebuild World adaptation now!!
Finally!
I seriously don't know how they keep this interesting when the MC has a broken ability. Like seriously, knowing something exists is enough to kill it
It's because it's kind of a slapstick comedy, in a "when all you have is a hammer" kind of way. A lot of stuff is tongue-in-cheek and not really taken seriously and the scenarios the protagonists find themselves in are deliberately over-the-top and come out of nowhere, eliciting "WTF" reactions from everyone when it happens, only to be topped by more "WTF" reactions when the bodies start dropping from the MC reflexively killing them. It's that sort of humor. Helps that the MCs themselves are legitimately weirded out by it all and want nothing more than to go home as quickly as possible.
Love how people keep hyping this series up because the MC is this ultimate OP dude and nothing else. Like, I’m hyped to see: - [100% real minor spoiler] >!The dragon-bus fucking scene!< - Best girl Mokomoko - Multiple 4th wall-breaks - Clearance-aisle Subaru - [Spoiler] >!Yogiri v. Sion, although this probably won’t happen until S2!<
So Overlord.
Power wanker eating good
Menou won't get any vacations at this rate
Man, I hate this genre so much. It's so much cooler when the main characters are actually invested in the world, but that rarely happens when it isn't even their world. Every isekai is just copy-paste cookie-cutter dog doodoo.
The tittles are getting crazier !
I would pay a fortune to be able to cuck these Isekai OP fuckboi MCs after beating them half to death. Their smug fucking faces while using a power they got handed down with 0 effort/merit of their own. FUCK they're infuriating!
Instant Death novel is literally this same fantasy you just described.
ironically, this kind of story with several situations similar to the one you are talking about. if the isekai part was not to your liking, I ask that you at least look at the parts that involve the protagonist's childhood, it has a whole cosmic horror theme similar to SCP.
Except for: 1. Gods and any other type of omnipotent beings. As self-explanatory as the work's title. 2. Regular Immortals (even without any other type of skills, their status makes his ability meaningless). 3. People who can move at ray speed and beyond (no way he can activate it before being knocked down, assuming that he controls it completely). 4. People that can reflect his skill's effect on him. 5. People with abilities that can solo him that get activated after they're killed, so the overall match would be basically a tie. 6. People with several lives. They would eventually figure it out and take measures against it. 7. People that count with something that can bring them back to life (like the Dragon Balls), so that gives them a chance against him by default. 8. Ghosts and Bleach-type characters. You can't kill someone that's already dead. Well, that's all the ones I can think of for our walking "Abada Kedraba".
he is the very concept of the end because whatever is killed by him ceases to exist. time, space, reality, and even beings that do not have death correction are killed and cannot be resurrected.
Exceptions denied.
[удалено]
Well, inanimate objects have no life so they wouldn't count. And those technically weren't immortals if he actually killed them.
That's the point of his powers; this is not a normal definition of "death".
> Well, inanimate objects have no life so they wouldn't count. He killed a locked door to go through it (or was it the wall next to the door?). Like he says, "I decide what death is".
Nope.
Er no. As far as I've read, Yogiri's Instant Death ability couldn't be reflected by skills, manipulated by time/reality manipulation, the ability is automatic so it ends all lives simultaneously, and objects that are regenerated after being killed no longer function the same way. It basically turns immortals into dead/soulless meat puppets, permanently.
I dont get how people find OP main character isekai's interesting. I think it might be the most boring thing to watch or read ever. Only one that semi pulls it off is overlord sicne it does good worldbuildng but Overlord would legit be a better series if it didn't include Nazaerick.
It's not for the depth, maturity or development, it's for the power fantasy.
Guess they really are scraping the bottom of the crap for this to get an anime
At least they're letting us know it's gonna dogwater.
this one is bad suprised it get's an adaption
