Huh, I always thought isekai meant general portal fantasy because the first time I heard it was in relation to Kyou Kara Maou. But since then I've only heard it in relation to harem-type manga/anime where the average male MC falls into an in-world fantasy land where he inexplicably attracts all the women.

No idea what isekai actually means, but I just realised that the latter is why I mentally write off every series that's described to me as isekai.

[(Anonymous)]

It just means 'sent to another world', it doesn't matter what kind. Sometimes it's a fictional in universe one like you said, other times it's just another reality altogether.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, your definition definitely is included in "isekai" so you weren't wrong!

[OP] I suppose my next question is...

[(Anonymous)]

... Is there a specific word for 'portal fantasy that is a fictional setting the protagonist has encountered as fiction before entering'?

Because it's a common trope, to be sure.

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, yeah, and I first heard this word in the context of criticism of Sword Art Online and similar anime that followed - KonoSuba, TenSura ("Slime Isekai"), etc. For a while I thought isekai meant simply "people waking up in an MMO world" ...

[(Anonymous)]

I feel this secret deeply. And like I haven't watched nearly enough anime to appreciate it or know what anyone is talking about.

[(Anonymous)]

And, thank you for making my secret, Secret-Maker.

What exactly is this, OP (or anyone who knows the clip)?

[(Anonymous)]

Is it a video featuring a sound or is 'sound' slang for something? I too am too old and am not at all hip n' down with the Tic Tok.

......thirding the 'what i this' question.

sometimes I've wondered how actors deal with having to do sexy scenes with people they don't find attractive at all. That can't be comfortable.

I feel sad for you, OP. The Tombs of Atuan was my very favorite fantasy book when I was little.

...does Moonknight have selfcest-y moments in canon?
Because I might now be interested in watching Moonknight if so.

A thousand blessings upon you secret writer for chiming in with the cheat. Coming back to sims2 after a long hiatus I seem to have forgotten everything I once know and the places I found that knowledge largely don't exist anymore.

On one hand I get it, the whole 'queers have to struggle for everything' is a cliche that everyone's fucking sick of. On the other, yeah, character development is a big deal and fluff doesn't provide a lot of that. Thanks for the warning about yet another boring slice of life, I'd seen this come up in a discord and thought it looked vaguely interesting from the cover, but I'll just save my money.
