Isekai is one of the most popular anime genres today.
Why do anime fans consider isekai trash?
In fact, besides the ratings from audiences on websites like MyAnimeList or IMBb, there is no data or evidence to prove that isekai anime’s quality is deteriorating, to the point where it deserves to be considered.
Isekai is not an official genre, it is just a subgenre of the larger genre of mystery, fantasy or romance – even for many isekai works, they are unofficial subgenres of science fiction
It’s true that any anime fan can be attracted to the story of a boy or girl who wakes up in a magical world, confronting countless monsters to carry out a noble mission.
The plot is not too new and may be the reason why some audiences feel frustrated with the isekai genre and label it `trash`, but besides that there is another reason that seems more convincing.
A good story must be a story that is evaluated independently, not based on the general trend, otherwise anime will become an instant noodle product and easily be forgotten in the future.
How does isekai wash away its bad reputation?
It can be very difficult to come up with a solution to troubleshoot isekai.
Besides, a mandatory direction to help improve the quality of isekai works is to set higher standards for anime and light novels in this genre.
