Anime kinda polarized itself by the time I stopped watching like 5-7ish years ago. Idk if it's changed now.

But back when I stopped watching your options were:

  • Shonen Reboot/Continuation
  • Generic Candy-Colored anime girls at high school show.
  • Rare 10-60 Episode mini-series that had no right existing in that era.
  • Jojo.

Now you have "fantasy isekai with a protagonist that's so overpowered it removes all conflict or stakes from the story."

I seriously don't get the appeal. I know it's wish-fulfillment, but can't our wish-fulfillment include overcoming challenges?

That requires effort, so probably not.
