It would be really cool if they could add a tag for isekai or "Other world" anime. I know fantasy is somewhat similar, but there's a key difference between transportation to a new world and just exploring a fictional one. Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching. |

IMO, it's not the spoilers or not, it's simply that it was already suggested before too I think, like at least 5-10 (or more) other tags that could be added and would be useful, but the staff just simply ignores them all the time. |

Yeah i guess so. Isekai simply MC who got transfered to another world or reincarnated as the main plot line. |

this would be nice, i made my own tags manually as best i could on my own list for Isekai tagging (includes some time and dimension/VR too), because i doubt they would add it. https://myanimelist.net/animelist/ShaggyZE?status=7&order=4&order2=2&tag=WTD |

Well either way I don't think the Isekai genre is gonna be that popular in a couple years anyway, nor like you said I don't think there's enough to warrant it getting a new genre set in place for it. Maybe like how manga has a genderbender genre unlike anime that can get one (I don't actually know how many Isekai manga, ect there are though) Plus I don't really think we need a new genre on mal just for people getting sent to another world, its kind of specific and I doubt many people would use/need it in the first place.. |

Koisuru Tenshi Angelique: Kagayaki no Ashita 99. This Ugly Yet Beautiful World 100. Harukanaru Toki no Naka de: Hachiyou Shou If some of these are not Isekai enough, (maybe a couple as I have not seen some of these) yeah sure... but same time, realize that many of these do have sequels which are listed as separate entries which are also Isekai- example, Digimon. I tried to stick to things which involved teleporting to the new world in a strange way but, hey, if all time travel anime could be included as well as all interdemential travel, would definitely help it as a subgenre of Adventure Fantasy and Scifi. Would have perosnally Included things like Time Bouken. All anime where they travel to the dream world should as a major theme should be included such as Paprika. I do think more literal traveling to another world by space, should just stay space though. Time travel with in your own world by use of a machine should probably not be included. But same time, time travel/Dimension/ telelport. doesn't matter if they fell down a well, went on the internet too much and were sucked into a world, or used a machine in my opinion. And it would be great space to put all these anime which have similar themes. Some like Erased really are a POOF type situation even if it is in his own world, it does have many of the same tropes the other stuff has. Most of these stories share a fish out of water feeling. And I think that is the primary driving force behind people going back to these stories. |

^ Accel World isn't isekai. So is Sprisited Away and Death Parade. Those aren't "transported to another world" since it's still the same world. Just a different part of it. I don't know about the others but you could put a lot of those in the Fantasy genre. Also, isekai is just a setting or premise. Not a genre in and of itself. So I don't think it needs it's own tag. |

Yes it is. They go to another world. "10-year-old Chihiro (Rumi Hiiragi) and her parents (Takashi Naitô, Yasuko Sawaguchi) stumble upon a seemingly abandoned amusement park. After her mother and father are turned into giant pigs, Chihiro meets the mysterious Haku (Miyu Irino), who explains that the park is a resort for supernatural beings who need a break from their time spent in the earthly realm, and that she must work there to free herself and her parents." She is LITERALLY trapped in another world. XD It is down to the last detail what Isekai is. She spends her whole time trying to get home and saving her parents. In Alice in Wonderland for example, she either falls asleep, falls down a hole or falls through a mirror. Alice in Wonderland is a good example of Isekai. Another good example is Wizard of Oz. Trapped in another world, spends whole time trying to get home. Was just dreaming the whole time. Except she wasn't, cause she could go back (later books). Spirited Away, she is clearly in another dimension. Death Parade is purgatory. Also another dimension. |

Previously mentioned SAO - characters basically live in fantasy like rpg world so for many it would count as isekai but then there are people thinking it's wrong because only their minds are transported. Accel World shouldn't count as isekai show either because characters can move into game world and fight with each other to earn exp / levels which would give them new abilities and then exit and live normally in real world. Neither Death Parade should be included because the main plot isn't about someone transported to another world and discovering it but about people who enter a bar and play games. Only later we discover what that place really is so using isekai tag would be not only incorrect but also a spoiler. I'd rather not have it as a tag because of different definitions one can have. It'd be too misleading. It's just a trope you can find in anime / manga and let it stay that way. |
I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes. Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that. It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers. Thought: How many people sparked H. Charlotta just for blue pot? |
