This is literally the same as saying infinity plus one. It makes no actual sense.

It sounds like cards didn't originally exist in the story, but then "last boss" interferes due to the arrival of the MC, and now everyone uses cards. Doesn't that mean from the MC's perspective that a novel without cards has turned into a card-game isekai? To be honest, it sounds like you...

I remember once several years ago thinking about Isekai stories, and how the "heroes" of the stories didn't act heroic- they would do their own thing, get their own harem, execute their own justice, and flaunt their "modern day ethical superiority" over the enhabitants of the otherworld. So I...

This is very faulty logic. You imply that memories cause personality, so the loss of memories means you lose your personality. But then you don't argue the reverse that re-gaining your memories would re-gain your personality? Also: The "solution" you propose is not a solution; it's the problem...

I think you're (almost fully) right when you claim that Isekai is "rendered moot" with the amnesia trope. I say almost, because there are almost always exceptions. For example, maybe an Isekai'ed person who slowly regains his memories as time passes. Suppose a novel pulled this concept off...

Eheh. many times. I have many story ideas and some non-story ideas. But in one and a half years i've written about 30k words. Sometimes I reflect on several ideas I've had and I realise I don't actually want to write them; usually due to some plot hole or a more thematic issue with the story...

My IQ. The size of my brain. My ego. The time between successive chapter releases of my novel.

But maybe the real important thing is actually the friends we made along the way :blob_aww:

I like slow romances as opposed to fast ones. For example, I really don't like it when some girl gets saved and immediately falls in love. Or a guy acts nice and a girl immediately falls in love, or... you get the idea. I'd much rather see the guy get friendzoned for 100 chapters or something...

Indeed. I expect that most Isekais take the "skill" idea from videogames. But the problem is that the "skill" from videogames comes from "skill" in real life. Now, Isekai novels aren't videogames, nor should they emulate videogames. (unless your novel is a game, and the "reader" is plays...

Well this is fun. :blob_popcorn: Do you mind If I join in and try and disect what's happening? If im wrong at some point, please correct me, but: This part is absolutely correct. I don't think anyone here disagrees with this statement whatsoever. The problem lies with these parts here: and...

I'd argue on the side that any isekai'ed person would be at a disadvantage. The problem with knowledge taught in schools is that it's relevent to our culture. However, the average person isn't taught how to make technology from scratch. Lets say you actually remember the Haber process from...

My immediate thought is to question the reason you left all your other projects unfinished. if you can figure out what made you drop them in the first place, you can prevent yourself from dropping the next. My expectation would perhaps be that this occurs because you havent fleshed out the...

When the Mc enters a warm room when (s)he's been outside, if there is a large temperature difference, they can't see anything because their glasses fog up. When looking at lights without glasses, they look like fuzzy splodges. If something hits their head, their glasses have a possibility of...
