I hate isekai, because they often remind the viewer it's not a fantasy world, but supposed to be a game. Many isekai would have been so much better if they were just straight up non-isekai fantasy anime.
The isekai idea is supposed to make it more relatable and easier to start, but people don't really need that to pretend a mechanic different from our reality exists in that world and someone got cast into it somehow.
“Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town” does that well because it plays on the stupidly overpowered, doesn’t know what’s normal trope without the MC being reincarnated.
