I've been reading this isekai about a woman reincarnated as the wife of a noble and spends her time drinking tea, basically like a food manga but only dealing with different types of tea. A tea-sekai, if you will. The story is mostly light-hearted with some hints at some potential relationship drama, but right now it's just focusing on tea-drinking. It also has nice art and some funny moments.




My headcanon is that before she was reincarnated into a Duchess, this woman was actually a reincarnated Arthur Dent.

An isekai where the protagonist is reincarnated as himself but half an inch taller. Somehow, this matters.

I feel like the one key defining thing about isekai is the loss of agency. that's why I'd consider .hack an isekai even though it's just a video game, because the mc can't leave until they solve the story, adventure 02 isn't because they can go to or leave whenever they want

(this would also mean that the myth of Orpheus is not in the running for "the first isekai" because if that was the case your last vacation to Houston would count as an isekai.)

:stare: The time I got stranded in Newark airport was an isekai :stare:

So nobody is tempted to read Dragon's Bloodline I'm going to spoil the ending because it's pretty wild:

All story long the various super powerful super old characters and gods are really cagey about some great cataclysm that's going to happen. In the end it's revealed that there are too many worlds in the universe and every few thousand years two of them collide with each other and one has to be destroyed so the other can survive. And the world theirs is going to collide with next is...Earth!

So in the end the main character and the other super-powerful characters have to fight all of Earth's gods to clear the way for one of the dragon gods to fly into Earth and commit suicide to blow it up. It's pretty easy except for the capital-G Judeo-Christian God who puts up a pretty good fight.

(But before that China managed to land some soldiers on the magic world that just happen to kill one of the protagonist's friends, which causes her to get real mad and blow up China, killing two billion people and ruining their efforts to evacuate a few million people with technical knowledge from Earth to help improve magic world's standard of living. Nobody really cares or comments on this.)

Earth gets blown up by the darkness dragon god, the protagonist becomes the new darkness dragon god, and everyone lives happily ever after. Except everyone on Earth, who are all dead.


So the plot is what if Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy but emo and grimdark and probably sinophobic and racist as well? Hard pass.

I'm a Villainous Daughter, so I'm going to keep the Last Boss ended. It was a nice little fluffy story about an Isekai'ed girl seducing the demon lord. Short but fun. If you have any interest in otome isekai you should check it out.

I'm so sad it ended even though they finished the story. Too drat adorable to live I guess.

Glad you are enjoying it. Honestly these days finding a new Isekai that is wholesome and doesn't fit in with a billion other tropes where the MC is in a black trenchcoat being overpowered and showing off his cheat skills is difficult. I mean, having a cheat skill in your isekai escape fantasy is well and good but really I like variety of finding stuff that doesn't fit in that mold.

It's one reason why I love Karate Baka Isekai so much, the Protag is offered a cheat skill and just nopes out of there down to fight stuff with Karate.

That said, I noticed in the latest update of Sentouin, Hakenshimasu! that there's an ANIME COMING! This one totally deserves it, being Konosuba 2.0 and all.

Why can't there be more Konosuba anime though?

Any real winners in there? I liked the second one from the first volume a ton but I don't remember a single one of them besides one where I was rooting for the lady to break away from her fiancee cleanly and being like aww when she didn't manage it.

Chapter 4 of volume 1 and 3-5 from volume 2 are my favorites for whatever that's worth.

Yeah, most of the time there'd be no story if the reincarnated villainess/final boss decided her fate was changeable and just hosed off to spend her life fly fishing or something.

Come to that, there's probably an I'm the Final Boss, But I'd Rather Be Fly Fishing with My Demon Sidekick isekai waiting to be translated.

I should really watch Re:Zero but I did like it in Isekai Quartet when he's chatting with Kazuma and is just like "Yeah I live in this mansion with a half elf chick and her two hot maids life's pretty tough" and Kazuma is utterly repulsed and calls him a whiny baby bitch

Which is a wonderful joke in itself given everything that happens to Subaru in that mansion.
