Ideally I'd say the world from "Yakuza Reincarnation". Many won't be familiar with it on this topic i'd imagine so I won't go into too much details about it, instead I'll list out what makes it the Isekai of my dreams. (I'd actually be thrilled to experience that, especially if that meant I wouldn't/Couldn't come back here)
-Very "plain" setting, poorly advanced in terms of modern-time Earthly technology.
-Free to choose what/Who I want to follow in my path. (Could flee to another country if I were to be nobility and despised living the life)
-Vast world, many regions to explore and/or Visit.
-Great Myths and Higher beings are part of that world's common knowledge as truths. (Dragons of legends, legendary blacksmith and the like)
-Basically anyone can be born with great apptitudes, but there are no "skills" or "level system". Which means growth depends mainly on one's efforts. Magic can be learnt.
-Political conflicts, slavery and war exist, but there's a strong balance in power throughout the world, which means that If I don't want to be involved in anything of the like I can live a happy laid-back life somewhere safe.
-Faith doesn't have as much impact on people and thus conflicts; as that is the case in other isekais. Which is something very compelling to me since I have none of that and don't want to be bothered by anything or anyone related to this. (Funny how that last part happened to be a topic on the discord while I was writting that)
In short, a fantasy world of swords and magic, different races, a big map and the possibility to choose whether or not I want to live a life of danger and adventure.
Now If I had to give an answer using a world most people would know about, that would be Re Zero's world.
The reasons are pretty similar, although there's much more danger and less of a power-balance in-between people and countries. Which I don't mind since I could learn the way of the sword or Magic If I wanted to. For self-defence at the very least.
Also as illustrated in the IF-stories, one can find a peaceful place even in that world, so in case I ended up wishing for it, that is an option. |
