All that and it's STILL better than Korean shit. I read Solo Leveling and it's basically an unironic One Punch Man: > Nebbish hero becomes a tall, handsome chad > Literally stronger than Jesus > Has an army of invincible shadow-warriors > Characterization? What's that? > Kills Satan and all of his minions BY HIMSELF

>>MC is a psychopath and the story is constantly giving excuses to have rape That's just Rance or Bastard or Words Worth, though.

>average fantasy anime now I'd say the average fantasy now is the "betrayed by my party/classmates/village/kingdom" type

At least Rance is tongue in cheek and the rapes aren’t really rape since the girls end up liking it. It is not as violent and visual as Goblin Slayer or Redo of Healer

Copies of copies become degraded with each generation removed from the original. The genre/format/industry is so inbred that modern works are now barely recognizable perversions of the giants whose shoulders they stand on.
This is the real answer right here. All Japanese "fantasy" is just a shitty ripoff of D&D, which is just a shitty rip off of LOTR, which is itself inspired by historical mythology and religion. As long as people ignore the core inspiration for the genre, it will remain a pile of irredeemable shit.
