I'm actually surprised there aren't Isekai where the protagonist gets send into another in the future
What about an Isekai that gets thrown into our world from a fantasy one
The Devil is a Part Timer does that.
Which is especially funny because it was ahead of its time with the anime. It came out like 4 or 5 years before the isekai genre really went wild, but it took years to finally get the second season.
That's kinda what I meant, but I was thinking more of sci-fi/cyberpunk genre
There's a whole subgenre called "reverse isekai" that does exactly that.
There is one but it's getting sent to the past instead of future. Inuyasha.
Depending on how you view things however, the secondary protagonist (Inuyasha) gets sent to the future
The only ones I know involve the protagonist going to a post-apocalyptic future, like 7 Seeds or in a sense Dr.Stone, or from the past to our present like Thermae Romae. I don't think there's any real series from the present to a Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi future, the only one I know of is a hentai (I heard the plot is actually decent, but it's still porn in the end).
Isn't that Parallel Paradise?
