Did Overlord ever really go anywhere with that? The plot I remember was that he was quite a timid man who just roleplayed an evil lich in his evil roleplaying megawhale guild, but when he got reincarnated/transferred he did actually end up having to live with those consequences, one of which being his now-actually-for-real genocidally-loyal underling NPCs and the fact that as a lich heightened emotions were squashed down. They played it for comedy a bunch but it felt like there could have been a gem of a plotline there as a regular human being tried to wrestle with succumbing to being an emotionless evil lich or fought to keep his human side intact.

I mean it literally means "another world" but there's a huge rash recently of the type where "I'm transported to another world that is exactly like a fantasy RPG video game right down to all the tropes and levels and stats and skills, and I'm really powerful".
I know for a most series it doesn't really matter and the setting is either just a vehicle for character development and hijinks (Konosuba) or a playground for the insanely overpowered MC to have tantrums in (a thousand other nameless forgettable properties) but the vast majority of isekai worlds being just Dragon Quest with the serial numbers filed off is so tiring.

"Oh my dear protagonist, how could you love me so, when she is such a goddess of delicate features, long black hair and bone-white skin, while I am a much less unattractive woman of smokey dark skin, thick thighs and huge breasts?" is always a good one.

Those Who Hunt Elves was a good isekai because they have a tank.

Isn't it an artifact of it being written somewhat on 2chan and all of the characters being just characters from other series?

On the same topic is that why the characters in Demon Queen Economics are the same way?

"These characters are only here to act as mouthpieces for what I actually care about and so I won't bother with anything beyond the most basic of descriptor".

I don't need to change anything about my personality or world view because if girls were forced to be around me they would see how nice I am right now.
