>isekai discussionI don’t know, the specifics of the ‘other world’ is in the modern sense either reincarnation or ‘soul theft’ to a different place. SAO, which afaik was the one that truly exploded its popularity in the West, was not a proper isekai in this sense, being VR, but it’s an interesting concept.
I consider isekai to focus on this specific idea/trope of the different world, so there must be some kind of shift and transportation. If a character is merely leaving their familiar world behind that’s not isekai, even if many stories start with a change of scenery, but that’s just mirroring life. Isekai can also be done well, and as a tool to explore certain themes.
>no one wants to read about random hufflepuffYou’d be surprised.
>overthinking story structureHah, maybe but it’s a fun conversation
